  • rich_gradient.text.Text
  • rich_gradient.gradient.Gradient
  • rich_gradient.rule.GradientRule
  • rich_gradient.spectrum.Spectrum
  • rich-color-ext acting as adequate replacement for previous color logic
  • Added examples directory containing:
  • animated_gradient_example.py
  • gradient_example.py
  • hello_world.py
  • rainbow_gradient.py
  • specific_color_gradient.py
  • text_markup.py
  • two_color_gradients.py
  • Generated updated exports for examples for documentation (still in the works)

v0.3.0 Updated

  • docs/index.md

v0.3.0 TODO

  • Update Documentation
  • Expand Tests
  • Work on Gradient Panel and Table Renderables

v0.3.0 Removed

Removed all of the the archived modules from rich_gradient/archive/*

v0.2.1 Rewrite

There was a lot of overhead in rich-gradient so I rewrote it from the ground up with an actual goal. I created rich-color-ext to wrap around rich's color parsing removing the need for the_rgb.py, color.py, color_data.py, _colors.py, and all of their tests.

v0.2.0 - 2025-3-13 | uv, pure python, and 3.13.2

There are a number of significant changes in v0.2.0:

rye → uv

Astral has done a hell of a job making python dev tools. ruff blew the existing python linters out of the water and uv pretty much did the same thing to package managers. Rich-gradient was started on rye but as Astral has since depreciated it, it's moved to their current rust powered python package manager, uv.

Pure Python

Rich-gradient is now a pure-python package. This allows it to be more easily used regardless of platform. As rich-gradient previously had pydantic as a dependency, it now just borrows the logic from pydantic-extra-types.color.

3.13.2

After switching to uv, the package has been updated to python 3.13.2.

v0.2.0 Updated

v0.2.0 Changed

  • Removed pydantic and pydantic-extra-types dependencies.
  • Updated the names of some of the colors. For example greenyellow became lawngreen.
  • Updated README.md, CHANGELOG, and documentation.

v0.2.0 Added

  • src/rich_gradient/_base_color.py: stores the color logic from pydantic-extra-types.color modules stripped of the pydantic framwork.

v0.1.7 - 2024-7-16 | Added support for Two-Color Gradients

v0.1.7 Updated

  • Updated Gradient.generate_subgradients() to default to returning a list containing a single simple gradient to allow Gradients to work when only supplied with two colors.

Two Color Gradient

v0.1.7 Added

  • Added len, int, str, and repr dunder methods to rich-gradient.gradient.Gradient (will simply refer to as Gradient from here on out).
  • Added a tests/test_gradient.py for Gradient to test two color gradiets

v0.1.6 - 2024-6-28 | Updated Rev

v0.1.0 - 2021-10-10

Initial release. Based off of MaxGradient with a simplified color model based on pydantic-extra-types.color.Color. Re-released as rich-gradient to avoid confusion with MaxGradient.
