CHANGELIST.md

Change List

• 6.1.0

  Added createTextureAsync and createTexturesAsync

• 6.0.0

  Internal change. gl.pixelStorei state for UNPACK_COLORSPACE_CONVERSION_WEBGL UNPACK_PREMULTIPLY_ALPHA_WEBGL and UNPACK_FLIP_Y_WEBGL is now saved and restored as the previous behavior had a race condition.

  Before v6.0.0

  t1 = twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: 'https://p.com/slow.jpg'});  // may or may not be flipped!!!!
  t2 = twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: 'https://p.com/fast.jpg', flipY: true });  // flipped

  In the example above, whether or not t1 is flipped was unknown since if t2 loads first, it would be flipped. If t1 loads first it would not be flipped.

  The fix is to save and restore the pixelStorei state for each texture.

  Unfortunately, this is a breaking change.

  Before v6.0.0

  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImageElem1, flipY: true });  // flipped
  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImageElem2 });               // also flipped

  From v6.0.0 on

  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImage, flipY: true });  // flipped
  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImage });               // NOT flipped

  Note: in all versions the behavior was and still is, that if you set the pixelStorei parameters outside they applied.

  gl.pixelStorei(gl.UNPACK_FLIP_Y_WEBGL, true)
  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImage });  // flipped
  twgl.createTexture(gl, {src: someImage });  // flipped

• 4.1.0

  • Added twgl.glEnumToString

    This was an internal function used to make a few error messages more useful but might as well export it.

  • Fix bug in resizeTexture for WebGL2.

• 4.0.1

  • Added check for built in uniforms and attributes

• 4.0.0

  • Switch to es6 modules for source

    Webpack still builds UMD version

• 3.8.0

  • Add SharedArrayBuffer support

• 3.7.1

  • Fix ortho

• 3.7.0

  • Support instances with drawBufferInfo and drawObjectList.

  • Support passing a multiplier smaller than 1 to resizeCanvasToDisplaySize.

• 3.6.0

  • Added twgl.addExtensionsToContext

    Adds most extensions directly on the context so they have the same API as WebGL2 or OpenGL ES 3.0

  • Added instancing support

    Added divisor to AttribInfo and FullArraySpec and calls to gl.vertexAttribDivisor. NOTE: It's up to you to clear the divisor. You can either use vertex array objects (recommended) OR set divisor to 0 other AttribInfos etc. (not recommended)

• 3.5.0

  • Added level to TextureOptions

• 3.4.1

  • use getBoundingClientRect for resizeCanvasToDisplaySize

    unlike clientWidth and clientHeight, getBoundingClientRect returns fractional dimensions. This is important when passing in devicePixelRatio to calculate and actual native size.

• 3.4.0

  • Support minMag for framebuffers

• 3.3.0

  • Make createProgram accept ids, source, and shaders as input.

    This kind of removes the need for createProgramFromSources and createProgramFromScripts

• 3.1.0

  • Add support for transform feedback

    At least an attempt at something. I'd need more examples of how it's used to see if it fits.

• 3.0.0

  • Fix package.json

    It was pointing to dist instead of dist/2.x. Because that means fixing it will bump users of npm 2.x from 1.x to 2.x I had to bump to 3.x because and a breaking change.

• 2.8.2

  • Use spec compatible texSubImage3D parameters

• 2.8.1

  • Fill out TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY with first image

    This is so there is something to render in all slices

• 2.8

  • Add support for TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY

    You can pass a list of images to twgl.createTexture and it will load each image into a slice of a TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY if the target is TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY

• 2.7

  • mangle some property names

    saves about 4k

  • add minMag property to TextureOptions

    It sets both TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER and TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER

  • Change texture filtering to use internalFormat

    In WebGL1 we checked power of 2 in width and height. In WebGL2 we check if the internal format supports filtering. This might break things going from WebGL1 to WebGL2 if you expected a non-power-of-2 texture to use gl.LINEAR.

    Note: One issue is TWGL can't tell if you've enabled OES_texture_float_linear so you use float textures it can't tell if it can generate mips or not and you'll have to be explicit with texture settings. Currently it assumes you can generate mips. Pass in auto: false to createTexture(s) if you didn't enable OES_texture_float_linear or similarly for half float formats.

  • Support samplers

  • Support webgl2 texture formats

• 2.6.2

  • remove "experimental-webgl2" which never existed

• 2.6.1

  • allow offset=0 in setAttributeInfoBufferFromArray

• 2.6

  • make createBuffersFromArrays add a numElements and elementType properties.

• 2.5

  • switch to webpack + babel

• 2.4

  • Support int attributes

• 2.3

  • Make all createProgramXXX functions take a ProgramOptions argument

• 2.1

  • Made guessing numComponents for attributes case insensitive as well ask looking for "text" and "colour"

• 2.0

  • Changed m4.multiply to match most other math libraries.

    m4.multiply(a, b) was multiplying b on the left. Now it's doing the more standard thing of multiplying b on the right.

    For example this means these 2 statements are equivalent

    m4.multiply(someMatrix, m4.translation([1, 2, 3]));
    m4.translate(someMatrix, [1, 2, 3]);
    

    In 1.x the first statement would have been

    m4.multiply(m4.translation([1, 2, 3]), someMatrix);
    

  • Changed twgl.drawBufferInfo so second argument is BufferInfo

    In other words in 1.x it was

    twgl.drawBufferInfo(gl, primitiveType, bufferInfo)
    

    Now in 2.x it's

     twgl.drawBufferInfo(gl, bufferInfo, primitiveType)
    

    This lets primitiveType be optional with the default being gl.TRIANGLES.

• 1.9

  • support mat2, mat3, and mat4 attributes

  • allow buffer offsets for UniformBlockInfos

• 1.8

  • framebuffers have better texture defaults

    before 1.8 textures created for framebuffers used the texture defaults which meant power of 2 dimensions got mips. As of 1.8 twgl only creates mip level 0 by default for framebuffer textures.

• 1.7

  • Add support for 3d textures (WebGL2)

• 1.6

  • Made createProgramInfo and createProgramXXX multi-signature

    twgl.createProgramInfo(gl, [vs, fs], opt_errFunc);
    twgl.createProgramInfo(gl, [vs, fs], opt_attribs, opt_errFunc);
    twgl.createProgramInfo(gl, [vs, fs], opt_attribs, opt_locations, opt_errFunc);
    

• 1.5

  • separated twgl src into more modules

• 1.4

  • add Vertex Array Object support
