#Iconema

What is iconema?

This is a script and library that takes a list of colors as input and finds the closest match to them in an image. It can be used as a utility to generate color palettes for customization purposes, and that's what it has been created for.

How does it work?

This program analyzes the given image and organizes all its unique color values into a k-d tree data structure. This k-d tree is then utilized to efficiently find the closest matching color for each distinct input color value.

Default base palette

The -b command option, tries to match the following 16 colors in order to create a "Base16" color palette with colors that are different enough that you can use as a colorscheme in a terminal emulator. This option is great with images that have a specific color theme or use a limited color palette, AKA most wallpapers.

color0  = #000000
color1  = #ff3333
color2  = #33ff33
color3  = #ffff33
color4  = #3333ff
color5  = #ff33ff
color6  = #33ffff
color7  = #a8a8a8
color8  = #545454
color9  = #ff8080
color10 = #80ff80
color11 = #ffff80
color12 = #8080ff
color13 = #ff80ff
color14 = #80ffff
color15 = #ffffff

TODO

• Clean up code.
• Create argument parser.
• Transparency support. Implement by converting all RGB colors to RGBA and then returning the apprpriate value, depending on if the user requested alpha matching
• Option where user provides colors and program outputs closest match in an image.
