Class: PostFXPipeline

Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.Pipelines. PostFXPipeline

The Post FX Pipeline is a special kind of pipeline specifically for handling post processing effects. Where-as a standard Pipeline allows you to control the process of rendering Game Objects by configuring the shaders and attributes used to draw them, a Post FX Pipeline is designed to allow you to apply processing after the Game Object/s have been rendered. Typical examples of post processing effects are bloom filters, blurs, light effects and color manipulation.

The pipeline works by creating a tiny vertex buffer with just one single hard-coded quad in it. Game Objects can have a Post Pipeline set on them. Those objects are then rendered using their standard pipeline, but are redirected to the Render Targets owned by the post pipeline, which can then apply their own shaders and effects, before passing them back to the main renderer.

Please see the Phaser 3 examples for further details on this extensive subject.

The default fragment shader it uses can be found in shaders/src/PostFX.frag. The default vertex shader it uses can be found in shaders/src/Quad.vert.

The default shader attributes for this pipeline are:

inPosition (vec2, offset 0) inTexCoord (vec2, offset 8)

The vertices array layout is:

-1, 1 B----C 1, 1 0, 1 | /| 1, 1 | / | | / | |/ | -1, -1 A----D 1, -1 0, 0 1, 0

A = -1, -1 (pos) and 0, 0 (uv) B = -1, 1 (pos) and 0, 1 (uv) C = 1, 1 (pos) and 1, 1 (uv) D = 1, -1 (pos) and 1, 0 (uv)

First tri: A, B, C Second tri: A, C, D

Array index:

0 = Tri 1 - Vert A - x pos 1 = Tri 1 - Vert A - y pos 2 = Tri 1 - Vert A - uv u 3 = Tri 1 - Vert A - uv v

4 = Tri 1 - Vert B - x pos 5 = Tri 1 - Vert B - y pos 6 = Tri 1 - Vert B - uv u 7 = Tri 1 - Vert B - uv v

8 = Tri 1 - Vert C - x pos 9 = Tri 1 - Vert C - y pos 10 = Tri 1 - Vert C - uv u 11 = Tri 1 - Vert C - uv v

12 = Tri 2 - Vert A - x pos 13 = Tri 2 - Vert A - y pos 14 = Tri 2 - Vert A - uv u 15 = Tri 2 - Vert A - uv v

16 = Tri 2 - Vert C - x pos 17 = Tri 2 - Vert C - y pos 18 = Tri 2 - Vert C - uv u 19 = Tri 2 - Vert C - uv v

20 = Tri 2 - Vert D - x pos 21 = Tri 2 - Vert D - y pos 22 = Tri 2 - Vert D - uv u 23 = Tri 2 - Vert D - uv v

bindAndDraw(source [, target] [, clear] [, clearAlpha] [, currentShader])

Binds this pipeline and draws the source Render Target to the target Render Target.

If no target is specified, it will pop the framebuffer from the Renderers FBO stack and use that instead, which should be done when you need to draw the final results of this pipeline to the game canvas.

You can optionally set the shader to be used for the draw here, if this is a multi-shader pipeline. By default currentShader will be used. If you need to set a shader but not a target, just pass null as the target parameter.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description

copyFrame(source [, target] [, brightness] [, clear] [, clearAlpha])

Copy the source Render Target to the target Render Target.

You can optionally set the brightness factor of the copy.

The difference between this method and drawFrame is that this method uses a faster copy shader, where only the brightness can be modified. If you need color level manipulation, see drawFrame instead.

Parameters:

copyFrameRect(source, target, x, y, width, height [, clear] [, clearAlpha])

Binds the source Render Target and then copies a section of it to the target Render Target.

This method is extremely fast because it uses gl.copyTexSubImage2D and doesn't require the use of any shaders. Remember the coordinates are given in standard WebGL format, where x and y specify the lower-left corner of the section, not the top-left. Also, the copy entirely replaces the contents of the target texture, no 'merging' or 'blending' takes place.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
source Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.RenderTarget

The source Render Target.
target Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.RenderTarget

The target Render Target.
x number

The x coordinate of the lower left corner where to start copying.
y number

The y coordinate of the lower left corner where to start copying.
width number

The width of the texture.
height number

The height of the texture.
clear boolean <optional>
 true

Clear the target before copying?
clearAlpha boolean <optional>
 true

Clear the alpha channel when running gl.clear on the target?
Since: 3.50.0
Source: src/renderer/webgl/pipelines/PostFXPipeline.js (Line 381)

copyToGame(source)

Pops the framebuffer from the renderers FBO stack and sets that as the active target, then draws the source Render Target to it. It then resets the renderer textures.

This should be done when you need to draw the final results of a pipeline to the game canvas, or the next framebuffer in line on the FBO stack. You should only call this once in the onDraw handler and it should be the final thing called. Be careful not to call this if you need to actually use the pipeline shader, instead of the copy shader. In those cases, use the bindAndDraw method.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
source Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.RenderTarget

The Render Target to draw from.

drawFrame(source [, target] [, clearAlpha])

Copy the source Render Target to the target Render Target, using the given Color Matrix.

The difference between this method and copyFrame is that this method uses a color matrix shader, where you have full control over the luminance values used during the copy. If you don't need this, you can use the faster copyFrame method instead.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
source Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.RenderTarget

onActive(currentShader)

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called every time the Pipeline Manager makes this the active pipeline. It is called at the end of the WebGLPipeline.bind method, after the current shader has been set. The current shader is passed to this hook.

For example, if a display list has 3 Sprites in it that all use the same pipeline, this hook will only be called for the first one, as the 2nd and 3rd Sprites do not cause the pipeline to be changed.

If you need to listen for that event instead, use the onBind hook.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
currentShader Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.WebGLShader

The shader that was set as current.
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1037)

onAfterFlush( [isPostFlush])

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called immediately after this pipeline has finished flushing its batch.

It is called after the gl.drawArrays call.

You can perform additional post-render effects, but be careful not to call flush on this pipeline from within this method, or you'll cause an infinite loop.

To apply changes pre-render, see onBeforeFlush.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
isPostFlush boolean <optional>
 false

Was this flush invoked as part of a post-process, or not?
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1202)

onBatch( [gameObject])

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called every time the batchQuad or batchTri methods are called. If this was as a result of a Game Object, then the Game Object reference is passed to this hook too.

This hook is called after the quad (or tri) has been added to the batch, so you can safely call 'flush' from within this.

Note that Game Objects may call batchQuad or batchTri multiple times for a single draw, for example the Graphics Game Object.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
gameObject Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject <optional>

The Game Object that invoked this pipeline, if any.
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1091)

onBeforeFlush( [isPostFlush])

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called every time this pipeline is asked to flush its batch.

It is called immediately before the gl.bufferData and gl.drawArrays calls are made, so you can perform any final pre-render modifications. To apply changes post-render, see onAfterFlush.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
isPostFlush boolean <optional>
 false

Was this flush invoked as part of a post-process, or not?
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1185)

onBind( [gameObject])

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called every time a Game Object asks the Pipeline Manager to use this pipeline, even if the pipeline is already active.

Unlike the onActive method, which is only called when the Pipeline Manager makes this pipeline active, this hook is called for every Game Object that requests use of this pipeline, allowing you to perform per-object set-up, such as loading shader uniform data.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
gameObject Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject <optional>

The Game Object that invoked this pipeline, if any.
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1058)

onDraw(renderTarget)

This method is only used by Post FX Pipelines and those that extend from them.

This method is called every time the postBatch method is called and is passed a reference to the current render target.

At the very least a Post FX Pipeline should call this.bindAndDraw(renderTarget), however, you can do as much additional processing as you like in this method if you override it from within your own pipelines.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
renderTarget Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.RenderTarget

The Render Target.
Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 951)

onPreRender()

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called once per frame, right before anything has been rendered, but after the canvas has been cleared. If this pipeline has a render target, it will also have been cleared by this point.

Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1140)

onRebind()

By default this is an empty method hook that you can override and use in your own custom pipelines.

This method is called when the Pipeline Manager needs to rebind this pipeline. This happens after a pipeline has been cleared, usually when passing control over to a 3rd party WebGL library, like Spine, and then returing to Phaser again.

Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 1077)

Custom pipelines can use this method in order to perform any required pre-batch tasks for the given Game Object. It must return the texture unit the Game Object was assigned.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
gameObject Phaser.GameObjects.GameObject

The Game Object being rendered or added to the batch.
frame Phaser.Textures.Frame <optional>

Optional frame to use. Can override that of the Game Object.

number

setMatrix2fv(name, transpose, matrix [, shader])

Sets a matrix 2fv uniform value based on the given name on the currently set shader.

The current shader is bound, before the uniform is set, making it active within the WebGLRenderer. This means you can safely call this method from a location such as a Scene create or update method. However, when working within a Shader file directly, use the WebGLShader method equivalent instead, to avoid the program being set.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
name string

The name of the uniform to set.
transpose boolean

Whether to transpose the matrix. Should be false.
matrix Array.<number> | Float32Array

The new values for the mat2 uniform.
shader Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.WebGLShader <optional>

The shader to set the value on. If not given, the currentShader is used.
Since: 3.50.0

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
name string

The name of the uniform to set.
transpose boolean

setShader(shader [, setAttributes])

Sets the currently active shader within this pipeline.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
shader Phaser.Renderer.WebGL.WebGLShader

The shader to set as being current.
setAttributes boolean <optional>
 false

Should the vertex attribute pointers be set?

setShadersFromConfig(config)

Destroys all shaders currently set in the WebGLPipeline.shaders array and then parses the given config object, extracting the shaders from it, creating WebGLShader instances and finally setting them into the shaders array of this pipeline.

This is a destructive process. Be very careful when you call it, should you need to.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
config Phaser.Types.Renderer.WebGL.WebGLPipelineConfig

The configuration object for this WebGL Pipeline.

setTexture2D( [texture])

Sets the texture to be bound to the next available texture unit and returns the unit id.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
texture WebGLTexture <optional>

WebGLTexture that will be assigned to the current batch. If not given uses whiteTexture.
Since: 3.50.0

Type
number

setTime(name)

Sets the current duration into a 1f uniform value based on the given name.

This can be used for mapping time uniform values, such as iTime.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
name string

The name of the uniform to set.

setVertexBuffer()

Binds the vertex buffer to be the active ARRAY_BUFFER on the WebGL context.

It first checks to see if it's already set as the active buffer and only binds itself if not.

Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 876)
Returns:

true if the vertex buffer was bound, or false if it was already bound.

Type
boolean

shouldFlush( [amount])

Check if the current batch of vertices is full.

You can optionally provide an amount parameter. If given, it will check if the batch needs to flush if the amount is added to it. This allows you to test if you should flush before populating the batch.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
amount number <optional>
 0

Will the batch need to flush if this many vertices are added to it?
Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 680)
Returns:

true if the current batch should be flushed, otherwise false.

Type
boolean

shutdown()

Removes all listeners.

Since: 3.0.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/events/EventEmitter.js (Line 31)

unbind()

This method is called every time the Pipeline Manager deactivates this pipeline, swapping from it to another one. This happens after a call to flush and before the new pipeline is bound.

Since: 3.50.0
Inherited From:
Source: src/renderer/webgl/WebGLPipeline.js (Line 970)

updateProjectionMatrix()

Adjusts this pipelines ortho Projection Matrix to match that of the global WebGL Renderer Projection Matrix.

This method is called automatically by the Pipeline Manager when this pipeline is set.
