colorswan 0.0.2

A new pip-installable library

colorswan

colorswan is a precision color conversion library for Python, focused on converting sRGB to the perceptual color spaces Oklab and Oklch.

It provides accurate conversions using standard white points and matrices, suitable for color science, data visualization, and web design applications.

Installation

pip install colorswan

Usage

Basic Conversion (Hex to Oklab/Oklch)

from colorswan import OkColor

converter = OkColor()

# Convert from Hex
result = converter.convert("#FF0000") # Red
print(result)
# Output:
# {
#   'oklab': {'L': 0.6279..., 'a': 0.2248..., 'b': 0.1258...},
#   'oklch': {'L': 0.6279..., 'C': 0.2576..., 'h': 29.233...}
# }

Tuple Input

You can also pass RGB tuples (0-255).

# Convert from RGB Tuple
white = converter.convert((255, 255, 255))
print(white['oklab'])
# {'L': 1.0, 'a': 0.0, 'b': 0.0}

Using Constants

The library exposes standard color matrices and white points.

from colorswan import constants

print(constants.WHITE_POINT_D65)
# (0.95047, 1.0, 1.08883)

Features

• Accurate: Implements the official Oklab matrices (sRGB -> Linear -> XYZ -> LMS -> Oklab).
• Zero Dependencies: Pure Python implementation.
• Easy to Use: Simple API for common color tasks.
