Various color schemes have been duplicated as they have been added to
different scheme collections. They don't always have identical names
(eg: some remove spaces) and sometimes they have very different names
(eg: _bash vs. nightfox, or Miu vs. Blazer).
We already detected duplicates from different collections but previously
we would omit those dupes.
This commit allows us to track those duplicates by recording their
aliases.
When we write out our data, we only include "interesting" alias names;
those where the name isn't trivially identical.
Some scheme collections (eg: iterm2 color schemes) have duplicates
(eg: zenbones and zenbones_light are identical) and we have previously
shipped with both of those names, so we special case to emit dupes
for which we have prior version information in order to avoid
breaking backwards compatibility for our users.
In the doc generation we can generate links to the aliases if we
included them, but also note about the other names and how we don't
include them. That is so that someone searching the docs for say
"_bash" can discover that it is actually a duplicate of "nightfox" and
use nightfox instead.
Record the version in which we first saw a color scheme.
For schemes from iterm2-color-schemes, we just assume that
we've had them forever as it isn't easy to reverse engineer
that metadata.
Everything else is tagged as 'nightly builds only' and I'll update
that to match the version number in the next release.
Newly discovered items will be added with 'nightly builds only'
from this point onwards.
Adjust importer to read directly from the source .itermcolors
files in the upstream repo. Extract some author information
from the comments in those files.
All data is now fetched (and cached!) via relatively minimal
http requests rather than requiring a git repo locally.
Also search for .yml files in base16 repos; found another
couple of schemes this way.
The toml files under assets/colors are no longer read by
anything in the repo. I plan to remove them, but since the
docs reference them as examples, I will first ensure that
there are docs and tooling that explains how to write and
share your own scheme files.
Moved the gradient function into the color module, but kept an alias
under the old name.
Gradients now return color objects.
Converting colors to string now uses rgba format when alpha is not 100%.
wezterm.color.parse() returns a color object that can be assigned in the
wezterm color config, and that can be used to adjust hue, saturation and
lightness, as well as calculate harmonizing colors (complements, triads,
squares) from the RGB/HSL color wheel.
