scrape and generate colors

Using nodejs as a code generator to scrape colors from wikipedia and generate c++ header file definitions for 16-bit color names

  • App1: scrape html from 'shades of...' wikipedia pages -> save as output/colors.json
  • App2: scrape html from 'lists of colors...' wikipedia pages -> load output/colors.json -> save as output/colors2.json
  • App3: load output/colors2.json -> save output/tones/<tone_name>.svg for each tone
  • App4: load output/colors2.json -> save output/md/<shade_name>.md (Markdown table of tones for each shade)
  • App5: load output/colors2.json -> save output/cpp/RGB565_colors.h
  • App6: load output/colors2.json -> save output/cpp/RGB565_palettes.h
let shades = ["azure","black","blue","brown","cyan","green","gray","magenta","orange","pink","purple","red","white","yellow","violet","misc"];
