OpenGLTest

Author: Aleksandar Koruga

OpenGL render engine for supercollider. Check either c++ code or sc files for details, if you're looking for a compiled version, check https://github.com/aleksandarkoruga/public-extensions/tree/main/OpenGLTest

TODO:

• uniform values control from sc - dynamically assign uniforms from input control rate array

• specify vertex array from buffer

• camera control - position, lookat

• Buffer variations of plugin -> Audio in - Buffer out | Buffer In - Buffer Out | Buffer In - Audio Out

• Maybe add visualizer only possibility? Audio In - No out | Buffer In - No Out

• compute shaders

Requirements

• CMake >= 3.5
• SuperCollider source code
• GLM
• GLFW
• GLUT
• GLEW

Building

Clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/aleksandarkoruga/opengltest
cd opengltest
mkdir build
cd build

Get GLM, GLFW, GLUT, GLEW libraries

update CMakeLists include directories: PATH_TO_GLM PATH_TO_GLFW PATH_TO_GLEW PATH_TO_GLUT

Then, use CMake to configure and build it:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build . --config Release
cmake --build . --config Release --target install

You may want to manually specify the install location in the first step to point it at your SuperCollider extensions directory: add the option -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/extensions.

It's expected that the SuperCollider repo is cloned at ../supercollider relative to this repo. If it's not: add the option -DSC_PATH=/path/to/sc/source.

Developing

Use the command in regenerate to update CMakeLists.txt when you add or remove files from the project. You don't need to run it if you only change the contents of existing files. You may need to edit the command if you add, remove, or rename plugins, to match the new plugin paths. Run the script with --help to see all available options.
