Module Ansi.ColorSource

Terminal colors.

Terminal colors.

Colors are represented as a sum type supporting 16 basic ANSI colors, 256-color palette indices, and 24-bit truecolor with optional alpha. Constructors clamp components to their valid ranges instead of raising.

The distinguished default color is Rgba \{r=0; g=0; b=0; a=0\} (fully transparent). Renderers treat alpha = 0 as "use terminal default" and emit SGR 39/49.

Note. pack/unpack require a 64-bit platform (Sys.int_size >= 62).

Sourceval bright_blue : t
Sourceval bright_magenta : t
Sourceval bright_cyan : t
Sourceval bright_white : t
Sourceval of_rgb : int -> int -> int -> t

of_rgb r g b is a truecolor RGB value. Components are clamped to [0, 255]. The result is opaque (alpha = 255).

Sourceval of_rgba : int -> int -> int -> int -> t

of_rgba r g b a is a truecolor RGBA value. Components are clamped to [0, 255].

Sourceval of_rgba_f : float -> float -> float -> float -> t

of_rgba_f r g b a is a color from normalized RGBA floats in [0.0, 1.0]. Components are clamped and converted to 8-bit integers. Inverse of to_rgba_f within rounding tolerance.

Sourceval of_palette_index : int -> t

of_palette_index idx is a color from the 256-color palette at idx, clamped to [0, 255]. Indices 0–15 return the corresponding basic color variant.

Sourceval grayscale : level:int -> t

grayscale ~level is a grayscale color. level is in [0, 23] where 0 is darkest and 23 lightest; out-of-range values are clamped. Maps to palette indices 232–255.

Sourceval of_hsl : h:float -> s:float -> l:float -> ?a:float -> unit -> t

of_hsl ~h ~s ~l ?a () is a color from HSL values with:

  • h is hue in degrees [0.0, 360.0\), wrapped. Negative values are normalized (e.g. -10 becomes 350).
  • s is saturation in [0.0, 1.0], clamped.
  • l is lightness in [0.0, 1.0], clamped.
  • a is alpha in [0.0, 1.0], defaults to 1.0, clamped.

Returns Rgb if alpha is 1.0, Rgba otherwise.

Sourceval of_hex : string -> t option

of_hex s parses a hex color string. Accepted formats (with or without '#' prefix):

  • 3 digits: "RGB" expanded to "RRGGBB".
  • 4 digits: "RGBA" expanded to "RRGGBBAA".
  • 6 digits: "RRGGBB" (opaque).
  • 8 digits: "RRGGBBAA" (with alpha).

Returns None on invalid format or non-hex characters.

Sourceval of_hex_exn : string -> t

of_hex_exn s is like of_hex but raises Invalid_argument on failure.

Predicates and comparisons

Sourceval equal : t -> t -> bool

equal a b is true iff a and b have identical RGBA components. Colors with different representations but identical RGBA values are equal (e.g. Extended 0 equals Black).

Sourceval compare : t -> t -> int

compare a b orders a and b by RGBA components. The order is compatible with equal.

Sourceval hash : t -> int

hash c is a hash of c's RGBA components. Compatible with equal.

Properties

Sourceval alpha : t -> float

alpha c is the alpha channel of c as a float in [0.0, 1.0]. Non-RGBA variants return 1.0. default returns 0.0.

Sourceval to_rgb : t -> int * int * int

to_rgb c is the RGB components of c in [0, 255], discarding alpha. default maps to (0, 0, 0); use alpha or to_rgba to distinguish it from explicit black.

Sourceval to_rgba : t -> int * int * int * int

to_rgba c is the RGBA components of c in [0, 255]. Non-RGBA variants return alpha = 255.

Sourceval to_rgba_f : t -> float * float * float * float

to_rgba_f c is the RGBA components of c as normalized floats in [0.0, 1.0].

Sourceval with_rgba_f : t -> (float -> float -> float -> float -> 'a) -> 'a

with_rgba_f c f calls f r g b a with normalized RGBA floats. Avoids the tuple allocation of to_rgba_f.

Sourceval to_hsl : t -> float * float * float * float

to_hsl c is (h, s, l, a) where h is hue in [0.0, 360.0\), s and l are in [0.0, 1.0], and a is alpha in [0.0, 1.0]. Achromatic colors have hue = 0.

Operations

Sourceval blend : ?mode:[ `Linear | `Perceptual ] -> src:t -> dst:t -> unit -> t

blend ~mode ~src ~dst () alpha-blends src over dst with:

  • `Linear standard alpha compositing.
  • `Perceptual adjusts alpha using perceptual curves for more natural appearance on semi-transparent overlays.

If src alpha ≥ 0.999, returns src RGB unchanged. If alpha ≤ ε, returns dst unchanged.

Sourceval downgrade : ?level:[ `Ansi16 | `Ansi256 | `Truecolor ] -> t -> t

downgrade ~level c converts c to the specified color depth using nearest-neighbor matching in RGB space (squared Euclidean distance). level defaults to detection from environment variables (COLORTERM, TERM). `Truecolor returns c unchanged. Transparent colors (default) pass through unchanged.

Sourceval invert : t -> t

invert c maps each RGB component v to 255 - v. The result is always opaque Rgb; alpha is discarded.

ANSI SGR codes

Sourceval to_sgr_codes : bg:bool -> t -> int list

to_sgr_codes ~bg c is the SGR parameter codes for c. If bg is true, generates background codes; otherwise foreground codes. Uses the most compact encoding for each color variant.

Sourceval emit_sgr_codes : bg:bool -> (int -> unit) -> t -> unit

emit_sgr_codes ~bg push c emits SGR codes for c via the push callback. Zero-allocation alternative to to_sgr_codes.

Binary encoding

Sourceval pack : t -> int

pack c encodes c to an unboxed integer for compact storage. Uses a tagged representation (3 tag bits + data).

equal c (unpack (pack c)) holds for all c.

Note. Requires a 64-bit platform.

Sourceval unpack : int -> t

unpack bits decodes a packed color. Invalid tags decode to default.

Converting

Sourceval to_hex : t -> string

to_hex c is the "#RRGGBB" hex string for c. Alpha is ignored.

Formatting

Sourceval pp : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

pp formats a color for inspection (e.g. "Red", "Rgb(100,150,200)", "Extended(42)").
