@johh/three-effectcomposer v0.1.0

three.js EffectComposer

Note for three >= v0.105.0

Please note, that starting with three.js r105, EffectComposer is included in the three package and installing @johh/three-effectcomposer is no longer necessary.

It can be accessed via

import { EffectComposer } from 'three/examples/jsm/postprocessing/EffectComposer.js';

This package is deprecated and unmaintained.

Installation

yarn add @johh/three-effectcomposer

npm i --save @johh/three-effectcomposer

Description

three.js's r105 EffectComposer ported to ES6 for easy importing.

Usage

import { WebGLRenderer } from 'three';
import EffectComposer, {
	Pass,
	RenderPass,
	ShaderPass,
	TexturePass,
	ClearPass,
	MaskPass,
	ClearMaskPass,
	CopyShader,
} from '@johh/three-effectcomposer';

const renderer = new WebGLRenderer();
const composer = new EffectComposer( renderer );

Differences to the original

• This package does not rely on namespace pollution, so THREE.EffectComposer, THREE.Pass, etc. remain undefined.

• An additional Pass, called RenderingPass, is exported. It includes a standard rendering setup, i.e. a scene (as this.scene), including an orthographic camera (this.camera) and quad (this.quad). This is useful if your custom pass requires said setup, but a customized rendering function. Since r103 this pass has been made redundant by Pass.FullScreenQuad, but remains for backwards compatibility.

Testing

Testing is done with mocha in a Chromium environment using puppeteer.

The structure of each class, as well as its visual output, is compared to its original counterpart.

Due to the virtually infinite number of possible combinations it is pretty much impossible to cover every use case.
