Use it

extract-palette

Usage of extract-palette:
  -k int
        number of colors to extract (default 8)
  -out-json value
        path of output JSON file (go template)
  -out-png value
        path of output palette image (PNG) (go template)
  -out-png-height int
        size of each color square in the palette output image (default 100)
  -out-txt value
        path of output text file (go template)
  -p int
        number of images to process in parallel (default 8)

Examples

For each image file, extract an 8-color palette. Generate a PNG image of the palette with suffix -palette-8.png. Write a JSON file containing the palette colors to a file with suffix -palette-8.json.

extract-palette \
      -k 8 \
      -out-png '{{.Path}}-pallette-{{.K}}.png' \
      -out-json '{{.Path}}-pallette-{{.K}}.json' \
      *.jpg

cluster-by-palette

Usage of cluster-by-palette:
  -n int
        number of image clusters to make (default 5)
  -glob value
        glob expression matching image files to cluster
  -k int
        palette size (default 4)
  -out-shell value
        shell command to run for each image (go template)
  -out-summary-json value
        path of output JSON containing the clustering (go template)
  -out-cluster-png value
        output path for cluster palette image (PNG) (go template)
  -out-cluster-png-height int
        size of each color square in the palette output image (default 100)
  -in-json value
        path to read palette JSON from (go template)
  -out-json value
        path to write palette JSON to (go template)
  -p int
        number of images to process in parallel (default 8)

Examples

Create 8 clusters of images based on their 4-color palettes. Make directories cluster-0...cluster-7 and copy the files to their respective cluster's directory. For each cluster, create PNG palette images named cluster-8-0.png...cluster-8-7.png.

cluster-by-palette \
      -n 8 \
      -k 4 \
      -out-shell 'd="cluster-{{.Label}}"; mkdir -p "$d"; cp "{{.Path}}" "$d"' \
      -out-cluster-png "cluster-{{.N}}-{{.Label}}.png" \
      *.jpg
