This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The WebGLSampler interface is part of the WebGL 2 API and stores sampling parameters for WebGLTexture access inside of a shader.
When working with WebGLSampler objects, the following methods of the WebGL2RenderingContext are useful:
WebGL2RenderingContext.createSampler()WebGL2RenderingContext.deleteSampler()WebGL2RenderingContext.isSampler()WebGL2RenderingContext.bindSampler()WebGL2RenderingContext.getSamplerParameter()
Examples
Creating a WebGLSampler object
in this example, gl must be a WebGL2RenderingContext. WebGLSampler objects are not available in WebGL 1.
var sampler = gl.createSampler();
