Generate color

Generates a random color

Evaluation

This expression evaluates to a function of the form:

(seed) -> any

The function is consistent with generator semantics of the Random Data step.

Given a seed value, the function returns a pseudo-random dict value of the following form:

{
  :name string,
  :hsl [long, double, double],
  :rgb [long, long, long],
  :rgb_percent [double, double, double],
  :hex string
}

An concrete value might look like:

{
  :hsl [240, 1.0, 0.5],
  :name 'blue',
  :rgb [0, 0, 255],
  :rgb_percent [0.0, 0.0, 1.0],
  :hex '#0000FF'
}
