Implementations

impl PaxEngine

Central instance of the PaxEngine and runtime, intended to be created by a particular chassis. Contains all rendering and runtime logic.

pub fn new( main_component_instance: Rc<ComponentInstance>, expression_table: ExpressionTable, viewport_size: (f64, f64) ) -> Self

pub fn replace_by_id(&mut self, id: &str, new_instance: Rc<dyn InstanceNode>)

pub fn tick(&mut self) -> Vec<NativeMessage>

Workhorse methods of every tick. Will be executed up to 240 Hz. Three phases:

1. Expand nodes & compute properties; recurse entire instance tree and evaluate ExpandedNodes, stitching together parent/child relationships between ExpandedNodes along the way.
2. Compute layout (z-index & TransformAndBounds) by visiting ExpandedNode tree in rendering order, writing computed rendering-specific values to ExpandedNodes
3. Render: a. find lowest node (last child of last node) b. start rendering, from lowest node on-up, throughout tree

pub fn render(&mut self, rcs: &mut dyn RenderContext)

pub fn get_expanded_node(&self, id: u32) -> Option<&Rc<ExpandedNode>>

pub fn set_viewport_size(&mut self, new_viewport_size: (f64, f64))

Called by chassis when viewport size changes, e.g. with native window resizes

pub fn global_dispatch_key_down(&self, args: ArgsKeyDown)

pub fn global_dispatch_key_up(&self, args: ArgsKeyUp)

pub fn global_dispatch_key_press(&self, args: ArgsKeyPress)
