Rust crate for generating random attractive colors. Check it out on [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/random_color).

Inspired by [RandomColor](https://github.com/davidmerfield/randomColor) by [davidmerfield](https://github.com/davidmerfield).

## Example projects

Amazing rust projects using `random_color`:

> [fake-rs]https://github.com/cksac/fake-rs> a library for generating fake data in Rust

> [news-flash]https://github.com/patchedsoul/news-flash> a modern feed reader designed for the GNOME desktop

> [cargo-trend]https://github.com/dalance/cargo-trend> cargo subcommand to generate trend graph of dependent crates

> [light_phylogeny]https://github.com/simonpenel/light_phylogeny> rust library dedicated to phylogeny

> [Voronoi]https://github.com/HactarCE/Voronoi> simple program that draws Voronoi cells for a set of points

> [conways-game-of-life]https://github.com/eval-exec/conways-game-of-life> conways' game of life in rust and with shiny colors

> [graph-sketchpad]https://github.com/dcheatha/graph-sketchpad> program which allows one to visually create nodes and edges, simply using sdl2

> [CDCS]https://github.com/salmmanfred/CDCS> helper program for creating Symphony of Empires mods



## Using the library

Check the online [documentation](https://docs.rs/random_color/latest/random_color/).

```rust
use random_color::color_dictionary::{ColorDictionary, ColorInformation};
use random_color::{Color, Luminosity, RandomColor};

let color = RandomColor::new()
  .hue(Color::Blue) // Optional
  .luminosity(Luminosity::Light) // Optional
  .seed(42) // Optional
  .alpha(1.0) // Optional
  .dictionary(ColorDictionary::new()) //optional
  .to_hsl_string(); // 

// color => "hsl(179, 99%, 10%)"
```

### Hue values

+ `Color::Monochrome`
+ `Color::Red`
+ `Color::Orange`
+ `Color::Yellow`
+ `Color::Green`
+ `Color::Blue`
+ `Color::Purple`
+ `Color::Pink`

### Luminosity values

+ `Luminosity::Random`
+ `Luminosity::Bright`
+ `Luminosity::Light`
+ `Luminosity::Dark`

### Alpha values

+ You can specify a value between 0 and 1 with `.alpha()`
+ You can specify a random value with `.random_alpha()`
  
### Outputs

```rust
  // As HSV Array
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_hsv_array(); // color => [179, 20, 100]

  // As RGB String
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_rgb_string(); // color => "rgb(204, 255, 254)"

  // As RGBA String
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_rgba_string(); // color => "rgba(204, 255, 254, 1)"

  // As RGB Array
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_rgb_array(); // color => [204, 255, 254]

  // As HSL String
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_hsl_string(); // color => "hsl(179, 99%, 10%)"

  // As HSLA String
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_hsla_string(); // color => "hsl(179, 99%, 10%, 1)"

  // As HSL Array
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_hsl_array(); // color => [179, 99, 10]
  
  // As Hex String
  let color = RandomColor::new().to_hex(); // color => "#b31464"
```
