## node-transicc [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/transicc.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/transicc)

A simple nodejs module that wraps the LittleCMS transicc command line utility, to allow you to make true ICC Profile-based color conversions inside your node apps.

### Installation

First, install [LittleCMS](https://github.com/mm2/Little-CMS) using the commands below on Unix/Linux/OSX (binaries available for other OSs). It's a small, open source C-based color management system - transicc uses a LittleCMS command line utility by the same name to perform the actual profile comparisons.

```shell
git clone https://github.com/mm2/Little-CMS.git
cd Little-CMS
./configure 
make 
make check 
sudo make install
```

Next, you're ready to install the node module...

```shell
npm install transicc --save
```

... and start converting colors!

```js
var transicc = require( "transicc" );

transicc( "cmyk", "rgb", [ 100, 0, 0, 0 ], function( err, rgb ){
	if ( err ) throw( err );
	console.log( rgb ); // same as Photoshop, yo!
});
```

The error parameter in the callback was added in transicc v1.2.0.
