The --swatch flag now controls both the inline terminal color block and
the desktop notification icon (via ImageMagick). Update the help text
to reflect this so users know the flag affects both output contexts.
- Add `--get-config` to print the current configuration.
- Add `--set-config` to update specific configuration keys in the TOML file.
- Add `--reset-config` to restore the default configuration.
- Refactor `do_install` to use the new `write_default_config` function.
- Update `--help` text to document the new configuration management flags.
Add a condition to the release workflow to skip execution if the PR
is labeled with 'Kind/Testing' or 'Kind/Documentation'. This prevents
unnecessary releases for non-functional changes.
- Implement tests/run_tests.sh with mocked environment
- Cover color conversion, multi-format output, and config loading
- Verify clipboard and notification integrations via mocks
- Document testing procedure in README.md
- Add notify_error function to send normal urgency warning notifications
- Update process_color to track clipboard failure and trigger error notification
- Improve warning message when clipboard utilities (wl-copy/xclip) are absent
The `--alpha` flag and `alpha = true/false` config file options remain
functional but references to them are removed as they are now superseded
by the output formats with alpha channels (rgba, hexa, hsla).
New users/configurations should use the relevant output formats. The
legacy flag/options remain active for backward-compatibility with older
configs/scripts.
This PR modernizes `color-tool` with a suite of new features, improved architecture, and automated release workflows.
### 🚀 Key Features
* **Multiple Format Support**: Now supports `hex`, `hexa`, `rgb`, `rgba`, `hsl`, and `hsla` output formats.
* **Flexible Output**: Use the new `--output` flag to specify one or more formats (e.g., `--output hex,hsl`).
* **Visual Swatches**: Added a `--swatch` flag to display a colored block in the terminal next to the values.
* **Intelligent Parsing**: Improved color input parsing that handles various CSS-style color strings.
* **Modern CLI Interface**: Added support for `--no-` flags (e.g., `--no-copy`, `--no-pick`) for fine-grained control.
* **Embedded Picker Support**: The KDE Plasma color picker logic is now more robustly managed and can be automatically generated if missing.
### 🛠 Architectural Improvements
* **Robust Configuration**: Refactored the config loader to support a clear priority hierarchy: **CLI Flags > Desktop Config > Default Config**.
* **Simplified Distribution**: Removed the hard dependency on an external `.py` file by embedding the picker helper script generation.
* **Installation Enhancements**: The `--install` process now handles `.desktop` file generation, symlinking, and sample configuration seeding more reliably.
### 📦 CI/CD & Documentation
* **Automated Releases**: Added a Gitea Action to automatically create a versioned release and upload the `color-tool` binary whenever a PR is merged into `main`.
* **Comprehensive Docs**: Added a new `README.md` with detailed installation, usage, and configuration guides.
* **Licensing**: The project is now explicitly licensed under **GPLv3** with appropriate headers and a `LICENSE` file.
### 🤝 Credits
Integration for the KDE Plasma color picker is based on the work by [SASUPERNOVA](https://github.com/SASUPERNOVA/wl-colorpicker-plasma).
Reviewed-on: #1
- Added --output flag supporting hex, rgb, hsl, rgba, hsla, hexa, and 'all' formats
- Implemented HSL/HSLA conversion using internal Python logic
- Added --[no-] prefix support for all toggleable flags (json, name, swatch, copy, notify, pick)
- Embedded KDE Plasma color picker Python script within the main bash script for portability
- Refactored argument parsing to implement a robust priority system (CLI > Desktop Config > Default Config)
- Improved validation to catch invalid output formats before triggering the color picker
- Updated installation logic to generate all necessary components and sample configuration
- Fixed swatch formatting when outputting JSON
- Refined desktop mode behavior and configurability
