ColorAdjuster

A tiny module mixin for adding color adjusting methods to a class that responds to color.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ColorAdjuster'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ColorAdjuster

Usage

Drop this module in a model or class that responds to color and returns a hex string:

class Status
  include ColorAdjuster

  def color
    "#ff0000"
  end
end

Now you can ask it to darken or lighten the color:

status = Status.new
status.darken_color      # => "#660000"
status.lighten_color     # => "#ff4d4d"
status.contrasting_color # => "#ff9999"

Thanks to this blog post for the code.
