Color scale look up table?

[nikkopante]

In chroma.js, there are named color palletes or 'scales' such as Viridis, Spectral, RdYlBu (Red, Yellow, Blue), Reds, Greys, etc. I know some of these are based on Color Brewer. However, I do not see a complete look up table in the docs for these names with their colors. How can I know that such acronym would work such as "RdYlBu"?

Sorry for the lack of examples in the documentation, but it will hopefully become more interactive in the new documentation.

You can access a list of all available palettes via

Object.keys(chroma.brewer)
// ['OrRd', 'PuBu', 'BuPu', 'Oranges', 'BuGn', 'YlOrBr', 'YlGn', 'Reds', 'RdPu', 'Greens', 'YlGnBu', 'Purples', 'GnBu', 'Greys', 'YlOrRd', 'PuRd', 'Blues', 'PuBuGn', 'Viridis', 'Spectral', 'RdYlGn', 'RdBu', 'PiYG', 'PRGn', 'RdYlBu', 'BrBG', 'RdGy', 'PuOr', 'Set2', 'Accent', 'Set1', 'Set3', 'Dark2', 'Paired', 'Pastel2', 'Pastel1']

as of now, this list will also include lowercase representations for each palette, but this will be fixed in the next release.
