Simulate color blindness by converting RGB hex codes. This is a node.js port of the daltonize code by mudcu.be. See Links for more information.
Install the module with: npm install color-blind
var blinder = require('color-blind');
blinder.protanopia('#42dead'); // result: "#d1c4a0"| Group | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Trichromat 3 good cones |
Normal | ||
| Anomalous Trichromat 2 good cones, 1 bad |
Protanomaly low red |
Deuteranomaly low green |
Tritanomaly low blue |
| Dichromat 2 good cones, 1 blind |
Protanopia no red |
Deuteranopia no green |
Tritanopia no blue |
| Monochromat 1 good cone, 2 blind/bad |
Achromatomaly almost no color |
Achromatopsia no color |
All the exported functions accept 2 parameters:
- colorString - any valid CSS color string
- returnRgb optional
- if true, then an object containing RGB values is returned
- if false or not passed, then a hex string is returned
