photosynthetic 0.0.15

Perform color and palette analysis on images

Photosynthetic

Photosynthetic is a python library that uses a unique clustering and distance algorithm to determine the perceptual color palette of an image. It offers a high degree of flexibility and configuration, allowing you to dial it in for post-processed images, illustrations, low-saturation, or product images!

A few examples of what you could do with this library:

• Create a fun, albeit useless, image host centered around color palettes like : https://photosynther.net
• Determine the primary color of product images for your eCommerce merchandising pipeline
• Have fun!
• Combine reference images into a brand guide or design system
• Automatically change themes based on profile images
• And probably at least a little but more

Usage:

This library can be used one of two ways, you can import the package into your own project and use it as a library, or you can use it via the command line by passing in an image filepath as the first argument

Command Line Usage

python main.py path/to/file.png

Library Usage

Quickstart (Will extract a palette using sane and generic analysis defaults)

from photosynthetic.Palette import Palette

p = Palette('images/test.png')
palette = p.extract()

print(palette)
# Returns :
