Style Color... how to convert rgb() to hex

[Mr. Goodie2Shoes]

Well, the title says it all, I am calling @primaryMedium which needs to be in HEX format... but it's giving me in rgb(x, y, z) format...

Thanks!

You might have to write a custom class for this...

There are some colour related helpers but the end result is always RGB or RGBA.

This one may help:

function rgb2hex($rgb)
{
$hex = "#";​
$hex .= str_pad(dechex($rgb[0]), 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);​
$hex .= str_pad(dechex($rgb[1]), 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);​
$hex .= str_pad(dechex($rgb[2]), 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);​
​
return $hex; // returns the hex value including the number sign (#)​
}

Thanks!
and what will be the input? rgb(x, y, z) or just x, y, z?

 

[Chris D]

Just x, y, z

255, 255, 255 would output #FFFFFF

 

[Mr. Goodie2Shoes]

oh... forgot to mention, the input is actually an array... so you have to separate them by

$rgb = str_replace(' ', '', $rgb) //just to make sure...
$rgb = explode(',', $rgb);

Why not just using a Converter?

Why not just using a Converter?

because i am fetching the style property automatically...

Why not just using a Converter?

I didn't ask, but I assume because he needs to do it programmatically for an add-on he's writing.
