p5.js bindings for PureScript

Disclaimer: This project has just been started and the API is still very unstable.

Documentation

Module documentation is published on Pursuit.

purescript-p5 implements a subset of the p5.js API (see Project Status).

Installation

bower install purescript-p5

This library depends on p5.js. This dependency may be satisfied by installing the NPM p5.js package.

npm install p5 --save

Running the examples

The examples use the webpack DLLPlugin to improve build performance. To run the examples, first build the dll bundle with:

npm run webpack:dll

This creates a separate webpack bundle for dependencies so that they don't need to be regenerated each time the app is changed.

To start webpack dev server, run:

npm run webpack:server

With webpack dev server running, examples can be viewed in a browser by visiting localhost:4008/examples/path-to-example.

Project Status

Completed:

  • wrappers for most methods defined on the p5 class

TODO:

  • generate methods for classes other than p5 (e.g. p5.Vector, p5.Image)
  • create easier-to-use interfaces for functions with numeric suffixes
  • use Reader monad to implicitly pass the p5 argument
