Installation
Follow the steps below to install CiColorRGBA in your project:
- Open your project in Xcode.
- Add the CiColorRGBA framework to your project. You can do this by downloading the framework and dragging it into your Xcode project navigator.
- In your project settings, navigate to the “General” tab.

- Select “CiColorRGBA.framework” from the list of frameworks.
- Ensure that the framework is set to “Embed & Sign”.
- Build and run your project to make sure the framework was added successfully.
Usage
CiColorRGBA provides a variety of methods and properties to work with colors:
Creating Colors
To create a color using CiColorRGBA, you can use one of the following methods:
CiColorRGBA(red: 0.5, green: 0.5, blue: 0.5, alpha: 1.0)
This will create a grayscale color with an RGB value of (0.5, 0.5, 0.5) and full opacity.
Modifying Colors
With CiColorRGBA, you can easily modify existing colors. Some of the available modification methods include:
- adjustBrightness(by: CGFloat): Adjusts the brightness of the color by the specified amount.
- blend(with: CiColorRGBA, alpha: CGFloat): Blends the color with another color using the specified alpha value.
- complement(): Returns the complement color of the current color.
- invert(): Inverts the color by negating the RGB values.
let color = CiColorRGBA(red: 0.2, green: 0.4, blue: 0.6, alpha: 1.0)
let brighterColor = color.adjustBrightness(by: 0.2)
let blendedColor = color.blend(with: CiColorRGBA.blue, alpha: 0.5)
let complementColor = color.complement()
let invertedColor = color.invert()
Analyzing Colors
If you need to analyze colors, CiColorRGBA offers several methods to extract useful information:
- getBrightness(): Returns the brightness value of the color.
- getLuminance(): Returns the luminance value of the color.
- isDarkColor(): Determines if the color is considered dark.
- isLightColor(): Determines if the color is considered light.
let color = CiColorRGBA(red: 0.2, green: 0.4, blue: 0.6, alpha: 1.0)
let brightness = color.getBrightness()
let luminance = color.getLuminance()
let isDark = color.isDarkColor()
let isLight = color.isLightColor()
