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.
