Converts your hex or RGB values into Corona/Defold-compatible format

Lua Color Converter

Converts your hex or RGB values into Corona/Defold-compatible format (numbers from 0 to 1)

HowTo:

1. Put convertcolor.lua into your project directory

2. Load it from your files (where it's necessary)

local color = require("convertcolor")

3. Use it to convert from hex:

color.hex("#ff00ff")
color.hex("#ff00ff", 0.5) --alpha set to 50%

.. and to convert from regular rgb:

color.rgb(255, 0, 255)
color.rgba(255, 0, 255, 0.1) --alpha set to 10%

Examples:

local myText = display.newText( "example from Corona Docs", 0, 0, native.systemFontBold, 12 )
myText:setFillColor( color.hex("#ff10ae") )

go.set("#label", "color", vmath.vector4(color.rgb(255, 16, 174, 1))
