kami-texture

2D texture utility for kami. Often rendered using kami-batch.

//get a webGL context somehow
var gl = require('webgl-context');
 
//load an image onto the GPU...
var tex = require('kami-texture')(gl, {
    src: 'img/blah.png'
});
 
//setup filters if you want
tex.setFilter(Texture.Filter.LINEAR);
 
//render it with kami-batch or another lib...

Usage

For full details, see the kami API docs. Here is the module at a glance.

Texture(gl, options)

The constructor. Can specify an image in options:

• src: the image source URI
• crossOrigin: a string to pass onto the Image object, or undefined
• onLoad: called when the image is loaded
• onError: called if there was an error loading the image

Or you can specify the raw data directly:

• data or image: an array of pixels, typically Uint8Array, or an HTML Image/Video object
• format: a gl format, default RGBA. The constants are aliased onto Texture.Format
• type: a gl type for the data array, default UNSIGNED_BYTE. The constants are aliased onto Texture.DataType
• width: the width of the data (only needed if you specified data)
• height: the height of the data (only needed if you specified data)

If no data or image is specified, null (empty) data is uploaded in place. There are also a couple other parameters which can be used with images or data constructor:

• genMipmaps: whether to generate mipmaps, default false

tex.width, tex.height

Dimensions of the texture

tex.id

The WebGLTexture identifier.

tex.setFilter(min, mag)

Sets the min and mag filter. LINEAR, NEAREST, etc. constants are aliased onto Texture.Filter. If a single argument is passed, it will be applied to both min and mag. The default filters for all new textures is NEAREST.

This will bind the texture before applying the parameters.

tex.setWrap(s, t)

Sets the texture wrap mode. REPEAT, CLAMP_TO_EDGE, etc. are aliased onto Texture.Wrap.

This will bind the texture before applying the parameters.

tex.bind(n)

If a number is passed, that texture slot will be made active and this texture bound to it. Otherwise, the texture will be bound to whatever texture slot is currently active.

uploadData(width, height, format, type, data, genMipmaps)

Calls glTexImage2D with the given parameters, and a data array as input.

uploadImage(domObject, format, type, genMipmaps)

Calls glTexImage2D with the given parameters, and an HTML image as input.
