orx-shader-phrases

A library that provides a #pragma import statement for shaders by using the JVM class loader.

Usage

Given a shader source:

#version 330
// -- this imports all phrases in Dummy 
#pragma import org.openrndr.extra.shaderphrases.phrases.Dummy.*

void main() {
    float a = dummy();
}

We can use the preprocessShader() function to resolve #pragma import statements.

    val preprocessedSource = preprocessShader(originalSource)

Alternatively loading and preprocessing can be combined in a single function call.

    val preprocessedSource = preprocessShaderFromUrl(resourceUrl("/some-shader.frag"))

To create importable shader phrases one creates a Kotlin class and adds the ShaderPhrases annotation. For example the dummy phrase in our example is made available as follows:

// -- force the class name to be Dummy on the JVM
@file:JvmName("Dummy")
@file:ShaderPhrases
package org.openrndr.extra.shaderphrases.phrases
import org.openrndr.extra.shaderphrases.annotations.ShaderPhrases

// -- the shader phrase
const val dummy = """
float dummy() {
    return 0.0;    
}
"""
