Shader Sdr Metadata API

This section provides API for authoring and querying shader registry metadata. When the shader's implementationSource is sourceAsset or sourceCode, the authored "sdrMetadata" dictionary value provides additional metadata needed to process the shader source correctly. It is used in combination with the sourceAsset or sourceCode value to fetch the appropriate node from the shader registry.

We expect the keys in sdrMetadata to correspond to the keys in SdrNodeMetadata. However, this is not strictly enforced in the API. The only allowed value type in the "sdrMetadata" dictionary is a std::string since it needs to be converted into a NdrTokenMap, which Sdr will parse using the utilities available in SdrMetadataHelpers.

USDSHADE_API NdrTokenMap GetSdrMetadata () const
 Returns this shader's composed "sdrMetadata" dictionary as a NdrTokenMap.
 
USDSHADE_API std::string GetSdrMetadataByKey (const TfToken &key) const

 Authors the given sdrMetadata on this shader at the current EditTarget.
 
USDSHADE_API void SetSdrMetadataByKey (const TfToken &key, const std::string &value) const
 Sets the value corresponding to key to the given string value, in the shader's "sdrMetadata" dictionary at the current EditTarget.
 
USDSHADE_API bool HasSdrMetadata () const
 Returns true if the shader has a non-empty composed "sdrMetadata" dictionary value.
 
USDSHADE_API bool HasSdrMetadataByKey (const TfToken &key) const
 Returns true if there is a value corresponding to the given key in the composed "sdrMetadata" dictionary.
 
USDSHADE_API void ClearSdrMetadata () const
 Clears any "sdrMetadata" value authored on the shader in the current EditTarget.

Detailed Description

Base class for all USD shaders.

Shaders are the building blocks of shading networks. While UsdShadeShader objects are not target specific, each renderer or application target may derive its own renderer-specific shader object types from this base, if needed.

Objects of this class generally represent a single shading object, whether it exists in the target renderer or not. For example, a texture, a fractal, or a mix node.

The UsdShadeNodeDefAPI provides attributes to uniquely identify the type of this node. The id resolution into a renderable shader target type of this node. The id resolution into a renderable shader target is deferred to the consuming application.

The purpose of representing them in Usd is two-fold:

  • To represent, via "connections" the topology of the shading network that must be reconstructed in the renderer. Facilities for authoring and manipulating connections are encapsulated in the API schema UsdShadeConnectableAPI.
  • To present a (partial or full) interface of typed input parameters whose values can be set and overridden in Usd, to be provided later at render-time as parameter values to the actual render shader objects. Shader input parameters are encapsulated in the property schema UsdShadeInput.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ UsdShadeShader() [1/3]

UsdShadeShader ( const UsdPrim prim = UsdPrim())
inlineexplicit

Construct a UsdShadeShader on UsdPrim prim .

Equivalent to UsdShadeShader::Get(prim.GetStage(), prim.GetPath()) for a valid prim, but will not immediately throw an error for an invalid prim

Definition at line 80 of file shader.h.

◆ UsdShadeShader() [2/3]

UsdShadeShader ( const UsdSchemaBase schemaObj)
inlineexplicit

Construct a UsdShadeShader on the prim held by schemaObj .

Should be preferred over UsdShadeShader(schemaObj.GetPrim()), as it preserves SchemaBase state.

Definition at line 88 of file shader.h.

◆ ~UsdShadeShader()

virtual USDSHADE_API ~UsdShadeShader ( )
virtual

Destructor.

◆ UsdShadeShader() [3/3]

USDSHADE_API UsdShadeShader ( const UsdShadeConnectableAPI connectable)

Constructor that takes a ConnectableAPI object.

Allow implicit (auto) conversion of UsdShadeConnectableAPI to UsdShadeShader, so that a ConnectableAPI can be passed into any function that accepts a Shader.

Note
that the conversion may produce an invalid Shader object, because not all UsdShadeConnectableAPIs are Shaders

Member Function Documentation

◆ _GetSchemaKind()

USDSHADE_API UsdSchemaKind _GetSchemaKind ( ) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

Returns the kind of schema this class belongs to.

See also
UsdSchemaKind

Reimplemented from UsdTyped.

◆ ClearSdrMetadata()

USDSHADE_API void ClearSdrMetadata ( ) const

Clears any "sdrMetadata" value authored on the shader in the current EditTarget.

◆ ClearSdrMetadataByKey()

USDSHADE_API void ClearSdrMetadataByKey ( const TfToken key) const

Clears the entry corresponding to the given key in the "sdrMetadata" dictionary authored in the current EditTarget.

◆ ConnectableAPI()

USDSHADE_API UsdShadeConnectableAPI ConnectableAPI ( ) const

Contructs and returns a UsdShadeConnectableAPI object with this shader.

Note that most tasks can be accomplished without explicitly constructing a UsdShadeConnectable API, since connection-related API such as UsdShadeConnectableAPI::ConnectToSource() are static methods, and UsdShadeShader will auto-convert to a UsdShadeConnectableAPI when passed to functions that want to act generically on a connectable UsdShadeConnectableAPI object.

◆ CreateIdAttr()

USDSHADE_API UsdAttribute CreateIdAttr ( VtValue const &  defaultValue = VtValue(),
bool  writeSparsely = false 
) const

◆ CreateImplementationSourceAttr()

USDSHADE_API UsdAttribute CreateImplementationSourceAttr ( VtValue const &  defaultValue = VtValue(),
bool  writeSparsely = false 
) const

◆ CreateInput()

USDSHADE_API UsdShadeInput CreateInput ( const TfToken name,
const SdfValueTypeName typeName 
)

Create an input which can either have a value or can be connected.

The attribute representing the input is created in the "inputs:" namespace. Inputs on both shaders and node-graphs are connectable.

◆ CreateOutput()

USDSHADE_API UsdShadeOutput CreateOutput ( const TfToken name,
const SdfValueTypeName typeName 
)

Create an output which can either have a value or can be connected.

The attribute representing the output is created in the "outputs:" namespace. Outputs on a shader cannot be connected, as their value is assumed to be computed externally.

◆ Define()

static USDSHADE_API UsdShadeShader Define ( const UsdStagePtr &  stage,
const SdfPath path 
)
static

Attempt to ensure a UsdPrim adhering to this schema at path is defined (according to UsdPrim::IsDefined()) on this stage.

If a prim adhering to this schema at path is already defined on this stage, return that prim. Otherwise author an SdfPrimSpec with specifier == SdfSpecifierDef and this schema's prim type name for the prim at path at the current EditTarget. Author SdfPrimSpec s with specifier == SdfSpecifierDef and empty typeName at the current EditTarget for any nonexistent, or existing but not Defined ancestors.

The given path must be an absolute prim path that does not contain any variant selections.

If it is impossible to author any of the necessary PrimSpecs, (for example, in case path cannot map to the current UsdEditTarget's namespace) issue an error and return an invalid UsdPrim.

Note that this method may return a defined prim whose typeName does not specify this schema class, in case a stronger typeName opinion overrides the opinion at the current EditTarget.

◆ Get()

static USDSHADE_API UsdShadeShader Get ( const UsdStagePtr &  stage,
const SdfPath path 
)
static

Return a UsdShadeShader holding the prim adhering to this schema at path on stage.

If no prim exists at path on stage, or if the prim at that path does not adhere to this schema, return an invalid schema object. This is shorthand for the following:

UsdShadeShader(stage->GetPrimAtPath(path));
