Hot-reloading shader pipelines for Screen 13. Supports compute, graphic, and ray-trace shader pipelines.
Based on shaderc. Feel free to submit PRs for other compilers.
See the example code,
See the GLSL and HLSL examples for usage - the hot pipelines are drop-in replacements for the regular shader pipelines offered by Screen 13.
After creating a pipeline two functions are available, hot or cold. The result of each may be
bound to a render graph for any sort of regular use.
hot(): Returns the pipeline instance which includes any changes found on disk.cold(): Returns the most recent successful compilation without watching for changes.
There are a few options available when creating a HotShader instance, which is a wrapper around
regular Shader instances. These options allow you to set compilation settings such as optimization
level and warnings-as-errors, among other things.
Run cargo doc --open to view detailed API documentation and find available compilation options.
