In hrbrmstr/swatches: Read, Inspect, Manipulate, and Save Color Swatch Files

Read colors from Adobe Color (ACO) files

Description

Given a path or URL to an .aco file, this function will return a named character vector (if color names are present) of hex RGB colors.

Usage

read_aco(path, use_names = TRUE, .verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

path	partial or full file path or URL to an ACO file
use_names	add color names to the vector (defaults to TRUE). See NOTE
.verbose	show extra information about ACO file processing

Note

When using named color palettes in a ggplot2 scale_ context, you must unname, set use_names to FALSE or override their names to map to your own factor levels.

Examples

# built-in palette
eighties <- read_aco(system.file("palettes", "tomorrow_night_eighties.aco", package="swatches"))
print(eighties)
show_palette(eighties)

# from the internet directly
## Not run: 
tomorrow_night <- read_aco("https://bit.ly/tomorrow-night-aco")
print(tomorrow_night)
show_palette(tomorrow_night)

## End(Not run)
