orx-olive

Live coding extension for OPENRNDR

usage

make sure that you add the following to your list of dependencies (next to orx-olive)

compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-scripting-compiler-embeddable:1.3.31"

Then a simple live setup can created as follows:

import org.openrndr.Program
import org.openrndr.application
import org.openrndr.extra.olive.Olive

fun main() = application {
    configure {
        width = 768
        height = 576
    }
    program {
        extend(Olive<Program>())
    }
}

The extension will create a template script for you in src/main/kotlin/live.kts. You can edit this to see how the program updates automatically.

Persistent Data

Sometimes you want to keep parts of your application persistent. In the following example we show how you can prepare the host program to contain a persistent camera device.

import org.openrndr.Program
import org.openrndr.application

class PersistentProgram: Program() {
    lateinit var camera: FFMPEGVideoPlayer
}

fun main() = application{
    program(PersistentProgram()) {
        camera = FFMPEGVideoPlayer.fromDevice()
        camera.start()

        extend(Olive<PersistentProgram>()) {
            script = "src/main/PersistentCamera.Kt"
        }
    }
}

The live script src/main/PersistentCamera.kt then looks like this:

@file:Suppress("UNUSED_LAMBDA_EXPRESSION")
import org.openrndr.color.ColorRGBa
import org.openrndr.draw.*

{ program: PersistentProgram ->
    program.apply {
        extend {
            camera.next()
            drawer.drawStyle.colorMatrix = tint(ColorRGBa.GREEN) * grayscale(0.0, 0.0, 1.0)
            camera.draw(drawer)
        }
    }
}
