Color Thief

===========

A Python module for grabbing the color palette from an image.

Installation

------------

::

    $ pip install colorthief

Usage

-----

.. code:: python

    from colorthief import ColorThief

    color_thief = ColorThief('/path/to/imagefile')

    # get the dominant color

    dominant_color = color_thief.get_color(quality=1)

    # build a color palette

    palette = color_thief.get_palette(color_count=6)

API

---

.. code:: python

    class ColorThief(object):

        def __init__(self, file):

            """Create one color thief for one image.

            :param file: A filename (string) or a file object. The file object

                         must implement `read()`, `seek()`, and `tell()` methods,

                         and be opened in binary mode.

            """

            pass

        def get_color(self, quality=10):

            """Get the dominant color.

            :param quality: quality settings, 1 is the highest quality, the bigger

                            the number, the faster a color will be returned but

                            the greater the likelihood that it will not be the

                            visually most dominant color

            :return tuple: (r, g, b)

            """

            pass

        def get_palette(self, color_count=10, quality=10):

            """Build a color palette.  We are using the median cut algorithm to

            cluster similar colors.

            :param color_count: the size of the palette, max number of colors

            :param quality: quality settings, 1 is the highest quality, the bigger

                            the number, the faster the palette generation, but the

                            greater the likelihood that colors will be missed.

            :return list: a list of tuple in the form (r, g, b)

            """

            pass
