Updates

  • Add PyBind11 and WASM/Javascript bindings for Slang
  • Update generateshader.py to allow for slang as target

Usage

Python

import MaterialX.PyMaterialXGenShader as mx_gen_shader
import MaterialX.PyMaterialXGenSlang as mx_gen_slang
shadergen = mx_gen_slang.SlangShaderGenerator.create()
context = mx_gen_shader.GenContext(shadergen)
...
shader = shadergen.generate(... args ...)

Javascript

mx = await MaterialX();
shadergen = mx.SlangShaderGenerator.create();
const genContext = new mx.GenContext(shadergen);
...
const shader = shadergen.generate(... args ...)

Tests

  • Run generateshader.py w/ slang target in CI workflow
