# histogram

  JavaScript image histograms with Canvas.

  ![js histogram](http://cdn.dropmark.com/41933/195c6ba28e2bd32341350d1acb5a50d9b4b66b4d/main.png)

## Installation

    $ component install component/histogram

  Or use without component:

    $ component build --standalone histogram

## Example

```html

  Histogram

  

    .histogram {

      background: #1a1a1a;

    }

    .histogram .channel {

      opacity: .4;

    }

    .histogram .red {

      color: #dc1e1a;

    }

    .histogram .green {

      color: #12b81c;

    }

    .histogram .blue {

      color: #46a3d6;

    }

  

  

  

  

    var histogram = require('histogram');

    var canvas = document.querySelector('canvas');

    var img = document.createElement('img');

    img.src = 'your img here';

    histogram(img)

      .smooth(12)

      .draw(canvas);

  

```

## Styling

  By default the histogram will be completely black,

  for example the following has only an opacity applied:

  Using CSS you can style the canvas histogram however you like,

  for example the following CSS:

```css

.histogram .channel {

  opacity: .4;

}

.histogram .red {

  color: #dc1e1a;

}

.histogram .green {

  color: #12b81c;

}

.histogram .blue {

  color: #46a3d6;

}

```

 yields:

 For the dark theme used in the first image on this page use:

```css

.histogram {

  background: #1a1a1a;

}

.histogram .channel {

  opacity: .4;

}

.histogram .red {

  color: #dc1e1a;

}

.histogram .green {

  color: #12b81c;

}

.histogram .blue {

  color: #46a3d6;

}

```

## Scaling

  The histogram's size will adjust to fit the canvas size, so use whatever dimensions you prefer:

## API

### .smooth([n])

  By default no smoothing is applied:

  ![no smoothing](http://cdn.dropmark.com/41933/24c9e31a80bc86ede792aaf1dbf3d144d4e30e60/no-smooth.png)

  When invoked without arguments (`.smooth()`) the

  default kernel of `6` is used:

  You may also pass any kernel size you wish, here is `20` for

  example:
