通过阅读源码,理清代码逻辑,有助于扩展与开发,笔者主要参考了以下两个系列的文章
渲染是前端可视化的核心,本文描述Cesium的渲染模块概述
2. WebGL渲染流程
WebGL(或者说OpenGL)的绘制流程(图形渲染管线,Graphics Pipeline)如下:
- 顶点着色(vertex shader)阶段将CPU传入的数据进行一定的变换处理
- 图元装配(shape assembly)阶段的就是上阶段的顶点数据处理成图元(如,三角形)
- 几何着色(geometry shader)阶段是根据一定规则将输入的图元变更或输出更多的图元(可选)
- 光栅化(rasterization)阶段的是将上阶段的图元进行计算得到图元占据的屏幕像素列表
- 片元着色(fragment)阶段是将上阶段生成的片元进行着色处理后
- 测试与混合阶段计算片元的深度、颜色等从而进行舍弃或保留
绘制流程繁琐,然而,我们能配置的只有三个蓝色的着色器部分。几何着色器可选,一般配置顶点着色器和片段着色器即可,即,以下步骤就是配置顶点着色器和片段着色器
2.1 生成顶点数据
生成顶点缓冲对象(Vertex Buffer Objects, VBO)并加载数据:
const vertices = new Float32Array([
-0.5, -0.5, 0.0,
0.5, -0.5, 0.0,
0.0, 0.5, 0.0,
]);
const vertexBuffer = gl.createBuffer();
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, vertexBuffer);
gl.bufferData(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, vertices, gl.STATIC_DRAW);
2.2 链接属性数据
顶点数组对象(Vertex Array Object, VAO)与VBO绑定,用于保存属性数据(先绑定VAO,再创建VBO就会绑定到VAO上):
const vao = gl.createVertexArray();
gl.bindVertexArray(vao);
gl.vertexAttribPointer(0, 3, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(0)
2.3 创建顶点着色器
创建顶点着色器(Vertex Shader)并编译:
const vertexShader = gl.createShader(gl.VERTEX_SHADER);
gl.shaderSource(vertexShader, `
attribute vec3 aPos;
void main()
{
gl_Position = vec4(aPos.x, aPos.y, aPos.z, 1.0);
}
`);
gl.compileShader(vertexShader);
2.4 创建片段着色器
创建片段着色器(Fragment Shader)并编译:
const fragmentShader = gl.createShader(gl.FRAGMENT_SHADER);
gl.shaderSource(fragmentShader, `
#version 100
void main()
{
gl_FragColor = vec4(1.0, 0.5, 0.2, 1.0);
}
`);
gl.compileShader(fragmentShader);
2.5 链接着色器
着色器程序对象(Shader Program Object)是多个着色器合并之后并最终链接完成的版本:
const shaderProgram = gl.createProgram();
gl.attachShader(shaderProgram, vertexShader);
gl.attachShader(shaderProgram, fragmentShader);
gl.linkProgram(shaderProgram);
2.6 绘制
开始绘制:
gl.clearColor(0.2, 0.3, 0.3, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.useProgram(shaderProgram);
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLES, 0, 3);
2.7 流程总结
上述几乎可以说是最简化的WebGL渲染流程,包含的基本要素有
- VBO,顶点缓冲对象 --------> 存顶点数据
- VAO,顶点数组对象(WebGL 2支持)--------> 存顶点属性
- Shader,着色器(包括顶点和片段着色器) --------> 运算和渲染
- Shader Program,着色器程序 --------> 连接着色器
此外,常用的还有:
- Texture,纹理(通常是一张图片)
- Framebuffer,帧缓冲对象(FBO)
- Renderbuffer,渲染缓冲对象(RBO)
- CubeMap,立方体贴图
