Make sense of any css color string.

The color gem is fantastic, but it is a requirement that you know what type of color you're parsing: #fff, blue, rgb(0, 0, 0)

This gem handles that requirement for you:

require "css_color"

CSSColor.parse("#fff")
#=> RGB [#ffffff]

CSSColor.parse("blue")
#=> RGB [#0000ff]

CSSColor.parse("rgb(0, 0, 0)")
#=> RGB [#000000]

CSSColor.parse("rgb(50%, 50%, 50%)")
#=> RGB [#808080]

The return type is an instance of the Color class, which has a rich feature set.

This gem aims to comply with the color grammar defined here.

RGBA, HSL and HSLA are not part of this specification. You're welcome to implement them and send a pull request.
