#Getting started:
ColorJizz-PHP uses the PSR-0 standards for namespaces, so there should be no trouble using with frameworks like Symfony 2.
###Autoloading
An autoloader class is provided for when loading ColorJizz yourself.
First, include the autoloader and call the static register() function.
<?php
require_once 'path/to/colorjizz/lib/MischiefCollective/ColorJizz/Autoloader.php';
MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Autoloader::register();
?>Now all ColorJizz classes will be automatically loaded in.
###Converting between formats
ColorJizz can convert to and from any of the supported color formats:
<?php
use MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Formats\Hex;
$red_hex = new Hex(0xFF0000);
$red_cmyk = $hex->toCMYK();
echo get_class($red_cmyk); // MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Formats\CMYK
echo $red_cmyk; // 0,1,1,0
?>Any color manipulation or conversion will return a new instance of a color class, therefore your original color objects remains intact.
Color manipulation can be chained together:
<?php
use MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Formats\Hex;
echo Hex::fromString('red')->hue(-20)->greyscale(); // 555555
?>Any color manipulation will always return the color in the same format unless you're specifically converting the format. For example:
<?php
use MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Formats\RGB;
$red = new RGB(255, 0, 0);
echo get_class($red->hue(-20)->saturation(2)); // MischiefCollective\ColorJizz\Formats\RGB
?>###Supported formats:
<?php
new RGB(r, g, b);
new CMY(c, m, y);
new CMYK(c, m, y, k);
new Hex(0x000000);
new HSV(h, s, v);
new CIELab(l, a, b);
new CIELCh(l, c, h);
new XYZ(x, y, z);
new Yxy(Y, x, y);###Conversion functions:
<?php
->toRGB();
->toCMY();
->toCMYK();
->toHex();
->toHSV();
->toCIELab();
->toCIELCh();
->toXYZ();
->toYxy();
