I have been trying to draw a triangle but it is not showing up on the canvas
here is my draw function code:
function draw() {
gl.viewport(0, 0, gl.viewportWidth, gl.viewportHeight)gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT)
gl.vertexAttribPointer(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute,
buffer.itemSize, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute)
//Draw the triangle
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLES, 0, buffer.numberOfItems)
}
here is the whole work:
const vertexShaderText = [
'attribute vec3 vertexPos;',
'',
'void main() {',
' gl_Position = vec4(vertexPos, 1.0);',
'}'
].join('\n')
const fragmentShaderText = [
'precision mediump float;',
'',
'void main() {',
' gl_FragColor = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);',
'}'
].join('\n')
let gl, shaderProgram, buffer
function startup() {
const canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas')
gl = canvas.getContext('webgl')
initShader()
initBuffer()
gl.clearColor(0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)
draw()
}
function initShader() {
// VERTEX SHADER
let vertexShader = gl.createShader(gl.VERTEX_SHADER)
gl.shaderSource(vertexShader, vertexShaderText)
gl.compileShader(vertexShader)
if (!gl.getShaderParameter(vertexShader, gl.COMPILE_STATUS)) {
alert('vertex', gl.getShaderInfoLog(vertexShader))
return
}
let fragmentShader = gl.createShader(gl.FRAGMENT_SHADER)
gl.shaderSource(fragmentShader, fragmentShaderText)
gl.compileShader(fragmentShader)
if (!gl.getShaderParameter(fragmentShader, gl.COMPILE_STATUS)) {
alert('fragment', gl.getShaderInfoLog(fragmentShader))
return
}
shaderProgram = gl.createProgram()
gl.attachShader(shaderProgram, vertexShader)

if (!gl.getProgramParameter(shaderProgram, gl.LINK_STATUS)) {
alert('Failed to setup shaders')
}
gl.useProgram(shaderProgram)
shaderProgram.vertextPositionAttribute = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, 'vertexPos')
//gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.vertextPositionAttribute)
}

gl.vertexAttribPointer(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute,
buffer.itemSize, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute)
//Draw the triangle
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLES, 0, buffer.numberOfItems)
}
startup()
<canvas id="myCanvas" width="500" height="500"></canvas>
There are some issues:
The properties gl.viewportWidth and gl.viewportHeight are never set:
gl = canvas.getContext('webgl')
gl.viewportWidth = canvas.clientWidth;
gl.viewportHeight = canvas.clientHeight;
In the array of vertex coordinates is a , instead of a .
const triangleVertices = [
0.0, 0,5, 0.0, // <---- this line
-0.5, -0.5, 0.0,
0.5, -0.5, 0.0
]
And there is a typo , you wrote vertextPositionAttribute instead of vertexPositionAttribute, when you get the attribute index:
shaderProgram.vertextPositionAttribute = // <--- typo
gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, 'vertexPos')
But in general your code works:
const vertexShaderText = [
'attribute vec3 vertexPos;',
'',
'void main() {',
' gl_Position = vec4(vertexPos, 1.0);',
'}'
].join('\n')
const fragmentShaderText = [
'precision mediump float;',
'',
'void main() {',
' gl_FragColor = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);',
'}'
].join('\n')

Some issues
There is no such thing as gl.viewportWidth and gl.viewportHeight
Use gl.canvas.width and gl.canvas.height.
There's a site out there that teaches using gl.viewportWidth and gl.viewportHeight. It is arguably an anti-pattern. Those variables are not part of WebGL. They are user variables being added by the example onto the WebGL context. There is absolutely zero reason to do that as they will always have to be manually updated and the actual width and height are always available.
Typo in triangleVertices
The second comma below should be a period
bad
const triangleVertices = [
0.0, 0, 5, 0.0, -0.5, -0.5, 0.0,
0.5, -0.5, 0.0
]
good
const triangleVertices = [
0.0, 0.5, 0.0, -0.5, -0.5, 0.0,
0.5, -0.5, 0.0
]
With that it runs but here's another typo
vertextPositionAttribute should be vertexPositionAttribute
shaderProgram.vertextPositionAttribute = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, 'vertexPos')
//gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.vertextPositionAttribute)
That said here's a bunch of suggestions.
Use multiline template literals for shaders
Instead of
const vertexShaderText = [
'attribute vec3 vertexPos;',
'',
'void main() {',
' gl_Position = vec4(vertexPos, 1.0);',
'}'
].join('\n')
do this
const vertexShaderText = `
attribute vec3 vertexPos;
void main() {
gl_Position = vec4(vertexPos, 1.0);
}
`;
So much easier! Use backticks instead of quotes for multi-line strings
Make initShader return a shader rather than assign a global
It's not common to have a single shader in WebGL so it's much more useful to have a function that creates shaders
Don't call gl.useProgram in initShader
Again it's not common to have a single shader. Calling gl.useProgram generally belongs in draw
Don't add attributes to browser objects, especially WebGL objects
bad
shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, 'vertexPos');
good (one of many ways)
const shaderProgramInfo = {}
shaderProgramInfo.program = initShader(...)
shaderProgramInfo.vertexPositionAttribute =
gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgramInfo.program, 'vertexPos');
This is because if initShader fails (for example the context is lost) your gl.createProgram will be null and trying to assign a property to null will cause your page to fail. The same issue with buffer
bad
const buffer = gl.createBuffer();
...
buffer.itemSize = 3
buffer.numberOfItems = 3
good (one of many ways)
const bufferInfo = {
buffer: gl.createBuffer(),
}
...
bufferInfo.itemSize = 3
bufferInfo.numberOfItems = 3
Call gl.bindBuffer before calling gl.vertexAttribPointer
Your code works because there is only one buffer. If there are 2 buffers it would likely stop working because gl.vertexAttribPointer references the currently bound buffer
Consider Reading better tutorials.
I'd recommend https://webglfundamentals.org
const vertexShaderText = `
attribute vec3 vertexPos;
void main() {
gl_Position = vec4(vertexPos, 1.0);
}
`;
const fragmentShaderText = `
precision mediump float;
void main() {
gl_FragColor = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
}
`;

Trying to write basic WebGL program, which draws a triangle to the screen. Without any projection matrix it works just right, as well as with identity matrix. But when it comes to perspective projection matrix it just shows nothing. Here is my code:
const canvas = document.getElementById("viewport");
canvas.width = window.innerWidth;

if (!gl.getShaderParameter(vs, gl.COMPILE_STATUS)){
const info = gl.getShaderInfoLog(vs);
throw new Error("Error compiling vertex shader:\n\n" + info);
}
if (!gl.getShaderParameter(fs, gl.COMPILE_STATUS)){
const info = gl.getShaderInfoLog(fs);
throw new Error("Error compiling fragment shader:\n\n" + info);
}
const program = gl.createProgram();
gl.attachShader(program, vs);

I have also tried this solution, but id didn`t work either.
Have you tried moving the triangle back a bit? Based on your NEAR_PLAIN, the triangle is too close. Try:
const position = [
-0.5, -0.5, -1.0,
0.0, 0.5, -1.0,
0.5, -0.5, -1.0,
];
Just as an aside, I'm not sure I agree with the math that you're using to create your projection matrix. I think it would be worth comparing against https://glmatrix.net/docs/mat4.js.html#line1508, which I believe gives a different result.
Need to create a smooth alpha transition from three color vertices without, breaking. what am i doing wrong.

Why is this code producing another triangle?
Im new to this webgl programming, it could be something simple iv'e tried to change the attribute buffer with no success.
The default alpha compositing is premultiplied alpha.
Either you've to disable premultipliedAlpha,
var gl = canvas.getContext('webgl', { premultipliedAlpha: false });
Or you've to multiply the RGB color channels by the ALPHA channel in the fragment shader:
gl_FragColor = vec4(fragColor.rgb * fragColor.a, fragColor.a);

It looks like I have done all the steps to get the attribute locations and pointers but it doesn't work. I don't understand how no VBO can be bound as I use gl.bindBuffer which should still be active in the draw phase.
You should change the following things:
function initBuffers() {
triangleVertexBufferObject = gl.createBuffer();
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, triangleVertexBufferObject);
gl.bufferData(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, new Float32Array(triangleVertices), gl.STATIC_DRAW);
positionAttribLocation = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, "vertPosition");
colorAttribLocation = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, "vertColor");
gl.vertexAttribPointer(
positionAttribLocation, // attribute location
2, //number of elements per attribute
gl.FLOAT, // type of element
gl.FALSE, // to => false,
5 * Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT,//size of induvidual vertex
0//offset from the beginning of a single vertex to this attribute
);
gl.vertexAttribPointer(
colorAttribLocation,
3,
gl.Float, //to => gl.FLOAT,
gl.False, //to => false,
5 * Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT,
5 * Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT //to => 2 * Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT
);
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(positionAttribLocation);
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(colorAttribLocation);
}
Previously had a color vertex for rendering this small square, now i want to use an image. Im using an image sprite i had lying around that sits at 64x128 wide.
I'm not getting any errors, but nothing is showing up either. First the shaders:
<script id="shader-fs" type="x-shader/x-fragment">
precision mediump float;
varying vec2 vTextureCoord;
uniform sampler2D uSampler;
void main(void) {
gl_FragColor = texture2D(uSampler, vec2(vTextureCoord.s, vTextureCoord.t));
}
</script>
<script id="shader-vs" type="x-shader/x-vertex">
attribute vec3 aVertexPosition;
attribute vec2 aTextureCoord;
uniform mat4 uMVMatrix;
uniform mat4 uPMatrix;
varying vec2 vTextureCoord;
void main(void) {
gl_Position = uPMatrix * uMVMatrix * vec4(aVertexPosition, 1.0);
vTextureCoord = aTextureCoord;
}
</script>
For the buffers:
initBuffers: function () {
this.planePositionBuffer = gl.createBuffer();
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, this.planePositionBuffer);
var vertices = [
1.0, 1.0, 0.0,
-1.0, 1.0, 0.0,
1.0, -1.0, 0.0,
-1.0, -1.0, 0.0
];
gl.bufferData(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, new Float32Array(vertices), gl.STATIC_DRAW);
this.planePositionBuffer.itemSize = 3;
this.planePositionBuffer.numItems = 4;
this.textureBuffer = gl.createBuffer();
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, this.textureBuffer);
var textureCoords = [
0.0, 1.0,
0.0, 0.0,
1.0, 1.0,
1.0, 0.0
];
gl.bufferData(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, new Float32Array(textureCoords), gl.STATIC_DRAW);
this.textureBuffer.itemSize = 2;
this.textureBuffer.numItems = 4;
}
Initializing the shaders:
initShaders: function () {
this.shader = new Shader("shader");
var shaderProgram = this.shader.shaderProgram;
shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, "aVertexPosition");
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute);
shaderProgram.textureCoordAttribute = gl.getAttribLocation(shaderProgram, "aTextureCoord");
gl.enableVertexAttribArray(shaderProgram.textureCoordAttribute);
shaderProgram.pMatrixUniform = gl.getUniformLocation(shaderProgram, "uPMatrix");
shaderProgram.mvMatrixUniform = gl.getUniformLocation(shaderProgram, "uMVMatrix");
shaderProgram.samplerUniform = gl.getUniformLocation(shaderProgram, "uSampler");
}
And the draw call.
draw: function () {
this.resize();
var delta = this.getDeltaTime();
gl.viewport(0, 0, gl.canvas.width, gl.canvas.height);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | gl.DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
mat4.identity(this.mvMatrix);
mat4.identity(this.pMatrix);
mat4.perspective(this.pMatrix, 45 * Math.PI / 180, gl.canvas.clientWidth / gl.canvas.clientHeight, 0.1, 100.0);
mat4.translate(this.pMatrix, this.pMatrix, [0.0, 0.0, -50.0]);
var shaderProgram = this.shader.shaderProgram;
for (var i = 0; i < this.objects.length; i++) {
this.objects[i].update(delta, this.mvMatrix);
}
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, this.planePositionBuffer);
gl.vertexAttribPointer(shaderProgram.vertexPositionAttribute, this.planePositionBuffer.itemSize, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);
gl.bindBuffer(gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, this.textureBuffer);
gl.vertexAttribPointer(shaderProgram.textureCoordAttribute, this.textureBuffer.itemSize, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);
gl.activeTexture(gl.TEXTURE0);
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, me.loader.getImage('test'));
gl.uniform1i(shaderProgram.samplerUniform, 0);
this.setMatrixUniforms();
gl.drawArrays(gl.TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, this.planePositionBuffer.numItems);
requestAnimationFrame(this.draw.bind(this));
},
I based the texture coords off of an article i found on opengles drawing on android. The idea was the coords should be in order of bottom left -> top left -> bottom right -> top right.
Full source code for its broken state can be found here in addition to the snippets above: https://github.com/agmcleod/webgl-2dexperiment/tree/13f31f70037fdd4515c1336423337a1e82ab4e89
Looks as if the WebGL code was all correct. However, I was never invoking the function bindAllTextures to actually set up the texture with webgl for rendering.
I have this segment of code:
function setupWebGL() {
gl.clearColor(0.1, 0.5, 0.1, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
gl.viewport(0,0,400,300);
mat4.perspective(45, 400 / 300, 0.1, 100.0, pMatrix);
mat4.identity(mvMatrix);
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
}
And everything in the code runs except the very last line
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
I know this because I put alert functions after every line until they failed to run (I need a better way of debugging in chrome, any suggestions?)
I'm using the gl-Matrix library found here https://github.com/toji/gl-matrix/blob/master/dist/gl-matrix-min.js
Any ideas on why that line is stopping the code execution?

Use the new API:
Old API
mat4.translate(mvMatrix, [0, 0, -2.0]);
New API
var translation = vec3.create();
vec3.set (translation, 0, 0, -2.0);
mat4.translate (mvMatrix, mvMatrix, translation);
You have a typo:
unifromMatrix4fv should be uniformMatrix4fv in function setMatrixUniforms.
I'm not sure if this fixes your problem or not, or why you thought your problem was with mat4.translate. You can always open the JavaScript console (F12 if you're running Chrome in Windows) and it'll tell you what the error is.
