Build a color palette from a prakriti palette — prakriti

Returns a character vector of hex codes drawn from one of the named palettes in prakriti_palettes. Supports both discrete subsetting and continuous interpolation via grDevices::colorRampPalette().

Usage

prakriti_palette(
  name,
  n = NULL,
  type = c("discrete", "continuous"),
  direction = 1
)

Arguments

name: Character. Name of the palette. See prakriti_names().
n: Integer. Number of colors to return. If NULL (default), returns the full base palette unchanged.
type: Either "discrete" (subset / recycle base colors) or "continuous" (interpolate smoothly across the base colors).
direction: 1 (default) or -1 to reverse the palette order.

Value

A character vector of hex codes with attributes name and type.
