makeTextures.js

This is a Node.js program designed to create a file to hold the base64 data of images intended to be used with webGL.

What is this repository for?

I created this for CS 559 Computer Graphics at UW - Madison as a way to help me auto create a file of textures. The output format is based off of this tool.

How do I get set up?

• You must have Node.js downloaded onto your computer in order for this program to run.
• Either copy or download makeTextures.js and run using Node.js.
• Save a copy of this program in the directory of your textures and run via the terminal:

node maketextures.js

• The new file will be called: textures.js

How to use textures.js in your program?

• In html file:

<script src="textureFolder/textures.js"></script>

• In the texture part of your code:

var image = new Image();
image.crossOrigin = "anonymous";
image.src = LoadedImageFiles["myTexture.jpg"];
image.onload = function(){
	//TODO: add texture code here
}
