Crate gfx_shader_watch

Provides ability to change shader source files and have them reload on the fly. Also provides macros to simply include the shader code at compile time when running in release mode.

Examples

use gfx_shader_watch::*;
use gfx::{Primitive, state::Rasterizer};

gfx_defines! {
    pipeline mypipeline {
        out: gfx::RenderTarget<gfx::format::Rgba8> = "Target0",
    }
}

// Container has SimplePsoCell or WatcherPsoCell type, depending on compile mode
// if you need to refer to the type, use the `debug_watcher_pso_cell_type!` macro
let mut pso_cell = debug_watcher_pso_cell!(
    pipe = mypipeline,
    vertex_shader = "shader/vert.glsl",
    fragment_shader = "shader/frag.glsl",
    factory = factory,
    primitive = Primitive::TriangleList,
    rasterizer = Rasterizer::new_fill()).expect("psocell");

encoder.draw(&slice, pso_cell.pso(), &data);

Modules

• macros

Macros

• debug_watcher_pso_cell
  Returns WatcherPsoCell instance when compiled in debug mode, SimplePsoCell instance when compiled in release mode The type itself can be attained similarly with the debug_watcher_pso_cell_type macro
• debug_watcher_pso_cell_type
  Returns WatcherPsoCell type when compiled in debug mode, SimplePsoCell type when compiled in release mode Type will match that returned by debug_watcher_pso_cell macro

Structs

• SimplePsoCell
  Container with compile time shader source, pipeline state is build on initialisation
• SimplePsoCellBuilder
  Builds SimplePsoCell
• WatcherPsoCell
  Container that watches shader files and reloads pipeline state object after modification
• WatcherPsoCellBuilder
  Builds WatcherPsoCell

Traits

• PsoCell
  Container for pipeline state object and a factory
