Package Exports

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (d2k) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

d2k.js

primitive builder based on three.js x babylon.js that will help you to created a scene in an intuitive and functional way.

english - french

Problems

DRY (do not repeat yourself)
webgl API too complex to make young people want to pay attention to 3d programming

Solutions

automate the creation of primitives
automate the composition of the scene
create a scene from a JSON file
support GLSL x THREE x BABYLON
switch between babylon.js and three.js with a single line of code
create experimental experience such as being able to make a kind of Object.assign (THREE, BABYLON), which would give a single canvas the possibility of displaying the two scenes simultaneously on the screen

Getting Started

before you start be sure that your project include three.js and / or babylon.js, once it's good for you, you can install d2k via your shell.

examples (jsfiddle)

using shader - using three.js - using babylon.js - layerization (three.js x babylon.js) - hello world

Install

shell

npm i d2k

yarn add d2k

alternative

download the project, copy the file d2k.js which is located in the folder /dist then you are free to install it in the place provided for this purpose in your application. now you have to import d2k into your module or into your html page and follow this syntax.

ecmascript

import d2k from 'd2k';
import * as THREE from 'three';

window.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', _ => {

  const THREEstarter = d2k
    .onstarter( { canvas: 'myCanvasId' } )
    .use( THREE )
    .withScene( { name: 'mySceneName' } )
    .withCamera( { name: 'myCameraName' } )
    .withMesh( { name: 'myMeshName' } )
    .withRenderer( { name: 'myRendererName' } )
    .composify( {
      config: {
        start: true,
        scene: { main: 'mySceneName' },
        mesh: [ { name: 'myMeshName', parent: 'main' } ],
        light: [ { name: 'myLightName', parent: 'main' } ],
        camera: { main: 'myCameraName' },
        renderer: 'myRendererName'
      }
    } )
    .value();

  // use the onrender method to update a mesh, the callback take time in argument.
  THREEstarter.mesh.myMeshName.onrender( time => {

    THREEstarter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.x += time;
    THREEstarter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.y += time;

  } );

}, false );

.value()
returns a starter object that contains a collection of primitives. note: .value() can be called at any time during the creation step

usage

`events`

mesh light camera hold events which are called in specific contexts onrender onloader onresize.

onloader

// get textures
starter.mesh.myMeshName.onloader( textures => textures );

onrender

// update
starter.mesh.myMeshName.onrender( timer => {
  starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.x += time;
  starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.y += time;
} );

  starter.mesh.myMeshName.material.uniforms.resolution.value.x += size.width;
  starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.uniforms.resolution.value.y += size.height;
} );

Tips

fetch scene from a JSON config file

// babylon
fetch( 'http://localhost:5007/api/scene/babylon' )
  .then( response => response.json() )
  .then( ( { scene } ) => {

    const starter = d2k
      .onstarter( { canvas: 'viewRendering' } )
      .use( BABYLON )
      .withEngine( scene.engine )
      .withScene( scene.scene )
      .withCamera( scene.camera )
      .withLight( scene.light )
      .withMesh( scene.mesh )
      .composify( scene.composify )
      .value();

    starter.mesh.myMeshName.onrender( time => {

      starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.x -= time;
      starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.y -= time;

    } );

  } );

// glsl
fetch( 'http://localhost:5007/api/scene/glsl' )
  .then( response => response.json() )
  .then( ( { scene } ) => {

    const starter = d2k
      .onstarter( scene.init )
      .use( THREE )
      .withShader( scene.shader )
      .value();

    starter.shader.myShaderName.onrender( time => time );

    starter.shader.myShaderName.onresize( size => {

      starter.shader.myShaderName.material.uniforms.resolution.value.x = size.width;
      starter.shader.myShaderName.material.uniforms.resolution.value.y = size.height;

    } );

  } );

// three
fetch( 'http://localhost:5007/api/scene/three' )
  .then( response => response.json() )
  .then( ( { scene } ) => {

    const starter = d2k
      .onstarter( { canvas: 'viewRendering' } )
      .use( THREE )
      .withCamera( scene.camera )
      .withRenderer( scene.renderer )
      .withMesh( scene.mesh )
      .withLight( scene.light )
      .withScene( scene.scene )
      .composify( scene.composify )
      .value();

    starter.mesh.myMeshName.onloader( textures => textures );

    starter.mesh.myMeshName.onrender( time => {

      starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.x += time;
      starter.mesh.myMeshName.rotation.y += time;

    } );

  } );

// async
const fetchStarterScene = async ( url ) => {

  const response = await fetch( url );
  const sceneConfig = await response.json();
  const data = d2k.onstarter( { canvas: 'viewRendering' } )
    .use( THREE )
    .onstarter( { canvas: 'viewRendering' } )
    .withCamera( scene.camera )
    .withRenderer( scene.renderer )
    .withMesh( scene.mesh )
    .withLight( scene.light )
    .withScene( scene.scene )
    .composify( scene.composify )
    .value();

  return data;

};

Disclaimer

I am not a developer, I am a normal guy who carries programming in his heart and wants to contribute to open source and help the 3d community. for now, this is just an experimental version of an idea I had in mind. But my idea will evolve through this project so my design errors, over time, will disappear. changes will be coming for everyone's comfort, I hope. triforce!
