RcppColors

Six C++ functions are exposed by this package:

std::string rgb2hex(double r, double g, double b);
std::string rgba2hex(double r, double g, double b, double a);
std::string hsluv2hex(double h, double s, double l);
std::string hsluv2hex(double h, double s, double l, double alpha);
std::string hsv2hex(double h, double s, double v);
std::string hsv2hex(double h, double s, double v, double alpha);

r, g, b ∈ [0, 255] (red, green, blue)
a, alpha ∈ [0, 1] (opacity)
h ∈ [0, 360] (hue)
s,l,v ∈ [0, 100] (saturation, lightness, value)

Usage in a package with Rcpp

The LinkingTo field in the DESCRIPTION file should look like

LinkingTo: 
    Rcpp,
    RcppColors

Then, in your C++ file, you can call the above functions like this:

#include <RcppColors.h>

std::string mycolor = RcppColors::rgb2hex(0.0, 128.0, 255.0);
