Convert iTerm2 profile colors XML file to RGB
Project description
Convert iTerm2 profile colors to RGB dataset
As a user of iTerm2 and a developer that wants to use python packages supporting colorization such as Rich, I want to extract the colors from my iTerm2 Profile into an RGB dataset that provides:
- Background (R,G,B)
- Foreground (R,G,B)
- List of 8 "normal" colors of (R, G, B)
- List of 8 "bright" colors of (R, G, B)
Usage
You will first need to export your profile colors from iTerm, as described in the section below. You can then either use this package directly or programaticaly.
direct module
Consider an iTerm profile with color values that look like this in the app:
After exporting these settings to the default filename "Untitled.itemcolors", run python:
python -m iterm2_colors2rgb Untitled.itermcolors
Outputs (formatted for clarity):
(
(0, 0, 0),
(199, 199, 199),
[(0, 0, 0), (201, 27, 0), (0, 194, 0), (199, 196, 0), (2, 37, 199), (202, 48, 199), (0, 197, 199), (199, 199, 199), (104, 104, 104)],
[(255, 110, 103), (95, 250, 104), (255, 252, 103), (104, 113, 255), (255, 119, 255), (96, 253, 255), (255, 255, 255)]
)
programmatic
from iterm2_colors2rgb import iterm2_colors2rgb
# as a tuple (bg, fb, normal_list, bright_list)
colors = iterm2_colors2rgb("Untitled.itermcolors")
