spirv-std

Core functions, traits, and more that make up a “standard library” for SPIR-V for use in rust-gpu.

This crate gives a rust-gpu shader access to the required #![spirv(..)] attribute, as well as povide all kinds of APIs that allows a shader to access GPU resources such as textures and buffers. Optionally, through the use of the "glam" feature, it includes some boilerplate trait implementations to make glam vector types compatible with these APIs.

Example

Here is a small excerpt to see what a shader would look like. See source for full details of the shader that generates above image.

use spirv_std::spirv;
use glam::{Vec3, Vec4, vec2, vec3};

#[spirv(fragment)]
pub fn main(
    #[spirv(frag_coord)] in_frag_coord: &Vec4,
    #[spirv(push_constant)] constants: &ShaderConstants,
    output: &mut Vec4,
) {
    let frag_coord = vec2(in_frag_coord.x, in_frag_coord.y);
    let mut uv = (frag_coord - 0.5 * vec2(constants.width as f32, constants.height as f32))
        / constants.height as f32;
    uv.y = -uv.y;

    let eye_pos = vec3(0.0, 0.0997, 0.2);
    let sun_pos = vec3(0.0, 75.0, -1000.0);
    let dir = get_ray_dir(uv, eye_pos, sun_pos);

    // evaluate Preetham sky model
    let color = sky(dir, sun_pos);

    *output = tonemap(color).extend(1.0)
}
