ColorPaletteCodable

A color palette reader/editor/writer package for iOS, macOS, macCatalyst, tvOS, watchOS and Linux.

Supports the following color palette formats

  • Adobe Swatch Exchange (.ase)
  • Adobe Photoshop Color Swatch (.aco)
  • Adobe Color Table (.act)
  • Adobe Color Book (.acb) (read only)
  • NSColorList (.clr) (macOS only)
  • RGB text files (.rgb)
  • RGBA text files (.rgba)
  • GIMP palette files (.gpl)
  • Paint Shop Pro files (.pal, .psppalette)
  • Microsoft RIFF palette files (.pal) (read only)
  • SketchPalette files (.sketchpalette)
  • CorelDraw/Adobe Illustrator xml palette (.xml)
  • JSON encoded color files (.jsoncolorpalette) ColorPaletteCodable internal file format
  • Hex Color Palette (text file with delimited hexadecimal color strings) (.hex)

Swift Package Manager

Why?

I wanted to be able to read and write .ase palette files in my Swift app. This then extended to .aco Adobe Photoshop Color Swatch files. Which then expanded to other types :-)

Some features :-

  • Named palettes
  • Named colors
  • Multiple named groups of colors within a single palette
  • Colorspace support (RGB, CMYK, Gray) with conversion capabilities
  • Encoding/Decoding of all supported palette coder types
  • Includes a cross-platorm, human readable, palette coder (json utf8 format)
  • Integrated pasteboard support for macOS/iOS
  • Simple image generation for an group of colors

API

Type Description
PAL.Palette The full representation of a palette
PAL.Group An optionally named collection of colors

Tasks

Decode a palette file

do {
   let myFileURL = URL(fileURL: ...)
   let palette = try PAL.Palette.Decode(from: myFileURL)
   
   // do something with 'palette'
}
catch {
   // Do something with 'error'
}

Build a palette and generate an ASE binary representation

do {
   // Build a palette
   var palette = PAL.Palette()
   let c1 = try PAL.Color.rgb(name: "red",   1, 0, 0)
   let c2 = try PAL.Color.rgb(name: "green", 0, 1, 0)
   let c3 = try PAL.Color.rgb(name: "blue",  0, 0, 1)
   palette.colors.append(contentsOf: [c1, c2, c3])

   // Generate a simple image from the colors
   let image = try PAL.Image.Image(colors: [c1, c2, c3], size: CGSize(width: 100, height: 25))

   // Create an ASE coder
   let coder = PAL.Coder.ASE()

   // Get the .ase format data
   let rawData = try coder.encode(palette)
   
   // Do something with 'rawData' (like write to a file for example)
}
catch {
   // Do something with 'error'
}

Read an ACO file, write an ASE file

do {
   let acoFileURL = URL(fileURL: ...)
   let coder = PAL.Coder.ACO()
   var palette = try coder.decode(from: acoFileURL)
   
   // do something with 'palette'
   
   // re-encode the palette to an ASE format
   let encoder = PAL.Coder.ASE()
   let rawData = try encoder.encode(palette) 
}
catch {
   // Do something with 'error'
}

QuickLook support (macOS 12+ only)

This package also includes a Quicklook Plugin for palette files. macOS 12 has changed the was quicklook plugins work, by creating an .appex extension (which is the quicklook plugin) embedded within an application.

In the Quicklook subfolder you’ll find an xcodeproj which you can use to build the application Palette Viewer which contains the QuickLook plugin.

For the plugin to register, you need to run the application. After the first run the QuickLook plugin will be registered.

Palette viewer

Palette Viewer allows you to view the contents of

  • Adobe Color Book files (.acb)
  • Adobe Photoshop Color Swatch files (.aco)
  • Adobe Color Table files (.act)
  • Adobe Swatch Exchange files (.ase)
  • Apple ColorList files (.clr)
  • RGB/RGBA hex encoded text files (.txt)
  • GIMP text files (.gpl)
  • JASC Paint Shop Pro (Corel) text files (.pal, .psppalette)
  • Microsoft RIFF Palette (.pal)
  • Sketch palette (.sketchpalette)
  • CorelDraw/Adobe Illustrator XML palette (.xml)
  • Hex delimited color palette (.hex)

You can drag colors out of the preview window into applications that support dropping of NSColor instances.

You can also save the palette to a new format (eg. saving a gimp .gpl format to an Adobe .aco format)

(A ColorType represents the type of color (global/spot/normal))

Simple Gradient support

The library additional defines PAL.Gradient which defines a collection of colors with positions that can be used when defining gradient types.

let gradient = PAL.Gradient(
   colorPositions: [
      (0.0, try PAL.Color(rgbHexString: "#FFFFFF")),
      (0.5, try PAL.Color(rgbHexString: "#444444")),
      (1.0, try PAL.Color(rgbHexString: "#000000"))
   ]
)

let coder = PAL.Gradient.Coder.JSON()

// Encode the gradient using the JSON encoder
let data = try coder.encode(gradient)

// Decode a gradient from data
let decoded = try PAL.Gradient.Decode(
   from: data,
   fileExtension: PAL.Gradient.Coder.JSON.fileExtension
)

The gradient coder includes basic importers/exporters.

Type Description
PAL.Gradient.Coder.JSON Built-in JSON format (.jsongradient)
PAL.Gradient.Coder.GGR GIMP gradient file (.ggr)
  • .ggr support doesn’t respect segment blending functions other than linear (always imported as linear)
  • .ggr support doesn’t allow for segment coloring functions other than rgb (throws an error)

For some nice gradient files, cptcity has all of them :-)

cptcity also has a nice converter for gradients to ggr

Linux support

  • Linux only supports very naive color conversions between RGB-CMYK-Gray.

To build/test linux support using a mac

See: Testing Swift packages on Linux using Docker

  1. Install Docker Desktop for Mac on your mac
  2. Make sure that docker is running (or else the next command will fail with a weird or no error message)
  3. Run the following command in the directory you want to mirror in your linux 
docker run --rm --privileged --interactive --tty --volume "$(pwd):/src" --workdir "/src" swift:latest

Now, from within the docker container, run 

swift build
swift test

Note that the /src directory in the Linux container is a direct mirror of the current directory on the host OS, not a copy. If you delete a file in /src in the Linux container, that file will be gone on the host OS, too.

Format specs

The .ase file format is not formally defined, however there are a number of deconstructions available on the web. I used the breakdown of the format defined here.

The .aco file format is defined here.

The .act file format is defined here.

The .acb format discussed and deined here

The CorelDraw/Adobe Illustrator .xml file format is (somewhat) defined here
