gl-line3d

A 3D WebGL line plot

Example

var createScene = require('gl-plot3d')
var createLine  = require('gl-line3d')
 
//Create the scene 
var scene = createScene()
 
//Create a helix 
var polyline = []
for(var i=0; i<100; ++i) {
  var theta = (i / 100.0) * Math.PI
  polyline.push([
      Math.cos(3*theta),
      Math.sin(3*theta),
      (i/50) - 1.0
    ])
}
 
//Create the line plot 
var lines = createLines({
  gl:       scene.gl,
  position: polyline,
  color:    [1,0,0]
})
 
//Add the lines to the scene 
scene.add(lines)

Install

npm install gl-line3d

Basic interface

Constructor

`var lines = require('gl-line3d')(options)

Creates a new line plot

options.gl A WebGL context
options.position An array of position values for the points on the curve
options.color An array of color values (or a singular color) for the curve
options.pickId The selection ID for the line plot
options.lineWidth The width of the line
options.dashes An array of dash patterns representing the dash pattern. For example, [0.5,0.5,0.5]
options.dashScale The number of times to repeat the dash pattern
options.opacity The opacity of the lines
