Raindrop FX

Optimised raindrop effect on glass with WebGL2

Inspired by https://github.com/codrops/RainEffect

Check the live demo: https://lab.sardinefish.com/rain

Background image from https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/84765992

Usage

Use as npm package

You might need some bundle tools to run it in browser. eg. esbuild or webpack

$ npm install raindrop-fx

const RaindropFX = require("raindrop-fx");

const canvas = document.querySelector("#canvas");
const rect = canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
canvas.width = rect.width;
canvas.height = rect.height;

const raindropFx = new RaindropFX({
    canvas: canvas,
    background: "path/to/background/image",
});

window.onresize = () =>
{
    const rect = canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
    raindropFx.resize(rect.width, rect.height);
}

raindropFx.start();

In Browser

For directly use in browser, download the pre-bundled script at /bundle/index.js and embed with your Web page.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Raindrop Effect</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/style.css">
    <script src="./bundle/index.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="root">
        <canvas id="canvas"></canvas>
    </div>
    <script src="./script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

style.css

body {
    margin: 0;
}

#root {
    position: absolute;
    width: 100vw;
    height: 100vh;
}

#canvas {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}

script.js


const canvas = document.querySelector("#canvas");

// Set canvas size to fit the real size
const rect = canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
canvas.width = rect.width;
canvas.height = rect.height;

const raindropFx = new RaindropFX({
    canvas: canvas,
    background: "path/to/backgroundImage",
});
raindropFx.start();

// Resize the effect renderer
window.onresize = () =>
{
    const rect = canvas.getBoundingClientRect();
    raindropFx.resize(rect.width, rect.height);
}

Configuration

All options except canvas element are optional at initialize.

// Minimal startup script with a dark opacity background
const raindropFx = new RaindropFX({
    canvas: canvas,
});

All options can be set dynamically by raindropFx.options.xxx=xx except renderer size and background image Example:

// At initialize
const raindropFx = new RaindropFX({
    canvas: canvas,
    spawnSize = [30, 80],
    spawnInterval = [0.1, 0.2],
    mistBlurStep: 5,
    dropletsPerSecond: 1000,
});

await raindropFx.start();

// Or set directly
raindropFx.options.spawnSize = [30, 150];
raindropFx.options.spawnInterval = [0.01, 0.05];
raindropFx.options.mistBlurStep = 5;
raindropFx.options.dropletsPerSecond = 1000;

Resize

Call raindropFx.resize to properly reszie.

raindropFx.resize(someWidth, someHeight);

Background

Background image must be set by calling to raindropFx.setBackground.

Background image source could be a url string, HTMLCanvasElement, HTMLImageElement, ArrayBuffer and other types that implemented interface TexImageSource and ArrayBufferView.

await raindropFx.setBackground("background image url");

// Set background image from HTMLImageElement
const img = new Image();
// ... 
await raindropFx.setBackground(img);

// Set background image from another HTMLCanvasElement
const anotherCanvas = document.querySelector("#another-canvas");
await raindropFx.setBackground(anotherCanvas);

Performance

On Windows Chrome 88. It takes about 6ms to update each frame with 2000 raindrops.
On Android (Mi 10) Chrome 87. It takes about 6.5ms to update each frame with 2000 raindrops.

By default settins on a 1920x1080 screen, there are up to 600 raindrops on the screen, which taks 2~3ms to update each frame.
