wand.color — Colors

New in version 0.1.2.

class wand.color.Color(string=None, raw=None)

Color value.

Unlike any other objects in Wand, its resource management can be implicit when it used outside of with block. In these case, its resource are allocated for every operation which requires a resource and destroyed immediately. Of course it is inefficient when the operations are much, so to avoid it, you should use color objects inside of with block explicitly e.g.:

red_count = 0
with Color('#f00') as red:
    with Image(filename='image.png') as img:
        for row in img:
            for col in row:
                if col == red:
                    red_count += 1
Parameters:string (basestring) – a color name string e.g. 'rgb(255, 255, 255)', '#fff', 'white'. see ImageMagick Color Names doc also

Changed in version 0.3.0: Color objects become hashable.

Changed in version 0.5.1: Color channel properties can now be set.

Changed in version 0.5.1: Added cyan, magenta, yellow, & black properties for CMYK Color instances.

Changed in version 0.5.1: Method Color.from_hsl() can create a RGB color from hue, saturation, & lightness values.

ImageMagick Color Names
The color can then be given as a color name (there is a limited but large set of these; see below) or it can be given as a set of numbers (in decimal or hexadecimal), each corresponding to a channel in an RGB or RGBA color model. HSL, HSLA, HSB, HSBA, CMYK, or CMYKA color models may also be specified. These topics are briefly described in the sections below.
== (other)

Equality operator.

(bool) Whether the color has changed or not.

classmethod from_hsl(hue=0.0, saturation=0.0, lightness=0.0)

Creates a RGB color from HSL values. The hue, saturation, and lightness must be normalized between 0.0 & 1.0.

h=0.75  # 270 Degrees
s=1.0   # 100 Percent
l=0.5   # 50 Percent
with Color.from_hsl(hue=h, saturation=s, lightness=l) as color:
    print(color)  #=> srgb(128,0,255)
Parameters:
  • hue (numbers.Real) – a normalized double between 0.0 & 1.0.
  • saturation (numbers.Real) – a normalized double between 0.0 & 1.0.
  • lightness (numbers.Real) – a normalized double between 0.0 & 1.0.
