[](https://crates.io/crates/shader-translator)
[](https://deps.rs/repo/github/stevebob/shader-translator)
This is a binary wrapper of [shaderc](https://crates.io/crates/shaderc) which compiles
GLSL shader source code read from stdin, into SPIR-V source code written to stdout.
## Installation
```bash
$ cargo install shader-translator
```
## Usage
```bash
$ shader-translator --help
Usage: shader-translator [options]
Options:
-f, --fragment fragment shader
-v, --vertex vertex shader
-h, --help print this help menu
```
## Example
```bash
$ echo -e "#version 450\nvoid main() {}" | shader-translator --fragment > /tmp/frag.spv
$ file /tmp/frag.spv
/tmp/frag.spv: Khronos SPIR-V binary, little-endian, version 0x00010000, generator 0x000d0007
```
