NAME "Convert::Color::Library" - named lookup of colors from "Color::Library" SYNOPSIS Directly: use Convert::Color::Library; my $red = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'red' ); # Only use the SVG dictionary my $brown = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'svg/brown' ); # Use either HTML or SVG dictionary my $pink = Convert::Color::Library->new( 'html,svg/pink' ); Via Convert::Color: use Convert::Color; my $cyan = Convert::Color->new( 'lib:cyan' ); my $darkcyan = Convert::Color->new( 'lib:windows/darkcyan' ); DESCRIPTION This subclass of Convert::Color::RGB8 provides lookup of color names using Robert Krimen's Color::Library module. It therefore provides convenient access to named colours in many dictionaries, such as SVG, X11 and HTML. CONSTRUCTOR $color = Convert::Color::Library->new( $name ) Returns a new object to represent the named color. If the name is of the form dicts/name Then "dicts" is parsed as a comma-separated list of dictionary names to pass to "Color::Library". TODO * Consider an API for getting the list of dictionary names and colour names. That said, it's easy enough to do directly to "Color::Library", so maybe not needed.
