:game_die: Get random color

Get a JSON object that contains a random color in three HEX, RGB and HSL color models at once.

{
    hex: "#CCFB7B",
    rgb: "rgb(204, 251, 123)",
    hsl: "hsl(82, 51%, 98%)"
}

:art: Get random color with a given hue

You can get random shades of the color you need. For example, using reserved names such as: <br> <i>[ red, pink, puprle, navy, blue, aqua, green, lime, yellow, orange ]</i> <br>

https://x-colors.yurace.pro/api/random/blue

Instead of reserved words, you can use any number from the range [0, 359] - which corresponds to the HUE scale.

:wrench: Parameters

The <i>number</i> parameter allows you to get an array containing the desired number of random colors.

?number=3

The <i>type</i> parameter allows you to get either only a dark or light shade of color. This allows you to know in advance what font color to use against the background of the resulting color. Usually, the font color is white on dark colors, and black on light colors.

It works if you have specified the <b>{hue}/{color}</b> you need or use <b>all</b> - for an any color.

/random/{hue/color/all}?type=dark

/random/{hue/color/all}?type=light

:arrows_counterclockwise: Converting сolors

You can freely convert colors between three color models. To do this, use the desired endpoint and use the <i>value</i> parameter to specify the color value of the color model, depending on the selected endpoint. <br><br> Convert HEX to RGB
