Colors parser

Input

The colors parser supports multiple input file types:

• CLR: NSColor​List palette file (see docs). When you create color palettes in image editors or in Xcode, these are stored in ~/Library/Colors.
• JSON: Simple root object where each key is the name, each value is a hex color string.
• TXT: Each line has a name and a color, separated by a :. A color can either be a color hex value, or the name of another color in the file.
• XML: Android colors.xml file parser (see docs).

Filter

The default filter for this command is: [^/]\.(?i:clr|json|txt|xml)$. That means it'll accept any file with the extensions clr, json, txt or xml.

You can provide a custom filter using the filter option, it accepts any valid regular expression. See the Config file documentation for more information.
