filters4ruby-processing

A port of Filters4Processing to ruby-processing A growing collection of pixel shaders ported to Processing to be used with the filter() function. Most of these shaders come from the excellent Shadertoy by Iñigo Quilez.

To run / watch shader sketches

NB: since ruby-processing-2.6.11 glsl files are also watched, so you can edit the shader of the sketch running in watch mode, and it will automatically reload when you save your changes...

# autorun all sketches
cd filters4ruby-processing
rake # assume rake and processing and ruby-processing installed

Run / Watch individual sketches as follows

rp5 --nojruby run/watch sketch.rb # Need to use jruby-complete

to avoid need for --nojruby flag in .rp5rc add following (if pure yaml)

JRUBY: 'false'

or if you used our configRP5.pde tool (emits json)

{
"JRUBY": "false",
....
}

NB: delete line, or change back to 'true' when you need to use gems....

This is a java/jruby permission thing, and beyond our control

Filters

Barrel Blur Chroma

Barrel & Pincushion

Bicubic Filter

Bilateral Filter (denoise)

Contrast, Saturation, Brightness

Dithering

Edge filter

Usage

This is a minimal example showing how to import shader file in ruby-processing and use it as a filter.

Note: Some shaders require additional uniforms. For details, refer to the example sketches included.

attr_reader :my_filter, :my_image

def setup
  size(512, 512, P2D)
  # import an image object
  @my_image  = load_image('texture.jpg')
  # load a shader object
  @my_filter = load_shader('shader.glsl')
  # pass the window size to the shader
  my_filter.set('sketchSize', width.to_f, height.to_f)
end

def draw
  background(0)
  # Draw the image on the scene
  image(my_image, 0, 0)
  # Applies the shader to everything that has already been drawn
  return if mouse_pressed?
  filter(my_filter)
end

Notes about porting filters from Shadertoy

Shadertoy and Processing both have their own quirks when it comes to shader programming. We need to make some changes in order to make Shadertoy code work with Processing/ruby-processing. See wiki which you are welcome to edit if you know better

Now go dig for some shaders and help us extend the library of filters available for Processing/ruby-processing!

Note: It is possible to port other types of shaders, but this repository focuses on filters.
