Creating a diverging color palette with different extremity colors

I am using the Python seaborn package to generate a diverging color palette (seaborn.diverging_palette).

colmap=sns.diverging_palette(3.8, 206.6, s = 75, l =30, n=200)

By default, it is possible to define the two extremity colors using a different "hue" (H) parameter from the HSLuv scale (http://www.hsluv.org/) these are set to 3.8 and 206.6 at the moment.

Is it also possible to define a different "saturation" (S) and "lighting" (L) value for both colors?

You can use the Python implementation for HSLuv to find interpolations between colors. It's exactly what you need to work in parallel with seaborn.

Install it with:

pip install hsluv

I know it's 3 years late, but this answer appears in the search results.
