contrastrast/esm/legacy/textContrastForBGColor.js

A lightweight tool that parses color strings and recommends text contrast based on WCAG Standards

/**
 * Recommends to use either `light` or `dark` text based on the
 * given background color.
 *
 * Color string can be HEX, RGB, or HSL
 *
 * @deprecated This method will go away in v2, we recommend switching to `Contrastrast(color).textContrast(bgColor)` for a more comprehensive and accurate comparison
 *
 * @param   {String}                bgColorString                           Color string of the background.  Can be HEX, RGB, or HSL
 * @param   {ContrastrastOptions}   options                                 (Optional) Partial collection `ContrastrastOptions` that you wish you apply
 * @param   {"dark"|"light"}        [options.fallbackOption="dark"]         Fallback color recommendation, returns on error or unparsable color string.  Defaults to `dark`
 * @param   {Boolean}               [options.throwErrorOnUnhandled=false]   Force option to throw error when invalid/unhandled color string is passed.  Defaults to `false`
 * @return  {"dark"|"light"}                                                Text color recommendation for given color string
