Overview

This is the main Ruby-Processing class, and is what you’ll inherit from when you create a sketch. This class can call all of the methods available in Processing, and has two mandatory methods, ‘setup’ and ‘draw’, both of which you should define in your sketch. ‘setup’ will be called one time when the sketch is first loaded, and ‘draw’ will be called constantly, for every frame.

Methods included from HelperMethods

#buffer, #color, #find_method, #frame_count, #frame_rate, #grid, #java_self, #key, #key_code, #key_pressed?, #lerp_color, #load_strings, #mouse_button, #mouse_pressed?, #mouse_x, #mouse_y, #pmouse_x, #pmouse_y, #proxy_java_fields, #save_strings, #set_sketch_path, #sketch_path

Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ App

When you make a new sketch, you pass in (optionally), a width, height, x, y, title, and whether or not you want to run in full-screen.

This is a little different than Processing where height and width are declared inside the setup method instead.
