n3d-threejs

n3d-threejs

This packages the Three.js library as a node.js module.

Note: This is only the minified core THREE object packaged for easy deployment (e.g. it can be required and bundled using browserify on the server before being transmitted in a single http-response to the client) and does not include all of the additional utility files which come with a full Three.js installation (i.e. examples, post-processing/shaders, Controllers & other additional utilities) which in total amounts to around a 100Mb dependency. You can of course include any supplemental code by using <script src=""> tags in an index.html file as needed, although that would be sub-optimal because you are adding to the download overhead when initially loading the page with additional http requests.

Installation

npm install n3d-threejs

OR

cd <app-folder>/node_modules
git clone [e-mail]:joates/n3d-threejs.git

Example

var THREE = require('n3d-threejs')
 
var width = window.innerWidth
var height = window.innerHeight
var scene, camera, renderer, cube
 
function init(){
  scene = new THREE.Scene()
  camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(45, width/height, 0.1, 10000)
 
  renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer()
  renderer.setSize(width, height)
  document.body.appendChild(renderer.domElement)
 
  var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(1, 1, 1)
  var material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({color: 0x00ff00})
  cube = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material)
  scene.add(cube)
 
  camera.position.z = 5
}
 
function animate(){
  requestAnimationFrame(animate)
  update()
  render()
}
 
function update(){
  cube.rotation.x += 0.1
  cube.rotation.y += 0.1
}
 
function render(){
