# Lorikeet

Lightweight framework for generating visually aesthetic color-schemes in Swift

## Requirements

- UIKit

## Features

What can Lorikeet do for you

- Calculate visual color difference ([wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_difference))

    - Algorithms:

        - CIE76

        - CIE94

        - CIE2000

- Generate color schemes

## Installation

### Carthage

In your `Cartfile` put:

```

github "valdirunars/Lorikeet"

```

### CocoaPods

In you `Podfile`

```

pod 'Lorikeet'

```

### Manual

Copy the `./Lorikeet` folder 😁🗂

## How to Use

### Basic Usage

```swift

let red: UIColor = .red

let label = UILabel()

label.backgroundColor = red

// Assign a maximum contrasting color as foreground color

label.textColor = red.lkt.complimentaryColor

// Visual color difference

let distance: Float = red.distance(to: .blue, algorithm: .cie2000)

// Generate color scheme

red.lkt.generateColorScheme(numberOfColors: 40) { colors in

    print(colors)

}

```

### Advanced

Lorikeet's `Algorithm` enum has two cases for advanced usage:

```swift

.advancedCIE94(l: Float, c: Float, h: Float, k1: Float, k2: Float)

```

```swift

.advancedCIE2000(l: Float, c: Float, h: Float)

```

Example:

```swift

let l: Float = 0.8

let c: Float = 0.9

let h: Float = 1.0

red.lkt.generateColorScheme(numberOfColors: 40,

                            using: .advancedCIE2000(l: l, c: c, h: h)) { colors in

    print(colors)

}

let range = HSVRange(hueRange: (0, 1),

         saturationRange: (0.5, 0.5),

         brightnessRange: (0.95, 0.95))

color.lkt.generateColorScheme(numberOfColors: 15,

                              withRange: range,

                              using: .cie2000) {

    colors in

}

```

### Screenshots

#### Making text readable using random colors:

```swift

let label = UILabel(frame: frame)

self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor(hue: 180/360.0,

                                    saturation: 0.5,

                                    brightness: 0.6,

                                    alpha: 1)

label.backgroundColor = self.view

    .backgroundColor!

    .lkt

    .generateRandomMatchingColor()

label.textColor = label.backgroundColor!

    .lkt

    .complimentaryColor

```



#### Generating colors:

```swift

let color: UIColor = UIColor(red: 245/255.0, green: 110/255.0, blue: 100/255.0, alpha: 1)

color.lkt.generateColorScheme(numberOfColors: 10)

```
