BeaconCalculator

A library for finding the best approximation of a color using a Minecraft beacon.

But why?

There are already some websites that do this, like the Minecraft Wiki and Minecraft.tools. But I wanted a solution which can be automated and something that I can embed in my own website. So here it is!

Quick example

Finding the best approximation of #FE2C54:

use beacon_calculator::find_combination_default;

find_combination_default([254, 44, 84]);

Returns:

Some(Panes {
    panes: [
        "pink",
        "magenta",
        "orange",
        "pink",
        "pink",
        "red",
    ],
    distance: 7.9557647705078125,
    color: PreciseRGB {
        red: 208.5,
        green: 89.90625,
        blue: 95.78125,
    },
})
