How to extract the color value from an image / selection / mouse hover location?

[taxial]

Hi,  first post here.  I did search and could not find a applicable function or extension that would allow me to do what I'm trying to accomplish.  It's essentially a paint function for the eyedropper tool that happens automatically.  I want to get the color value of whatever my mouse is currently hovering over /  from an image that is selected.     

I'm trying to store that color (hex value I'm assuming) and then create my own look up table of similar colors that I would recommend (or instead of making my own lookup table,  maybe there is some shopify color recommendation template).    

Feels like this is something that is likely available and I just can't seem to find an example to guide me through it.  Also not sure if I'm posting this in the correct board?   If there is a general liquid coding question forum then moderators please direct me there... 

 Any help / suggestion would be appreciated.   All the best

Happy New years, it's been two weeks and no response.  I'm still hoping to get some sort of direction from any the experts on this forum so I wanted to nudge this back into view.  Also,  if I'm posting in the wrong forum section for code / web function topics please feel free to let me know and direct me to where this type of subject should be posted.  

All the best
