WebGLRenderingContext - Web APIs 编辑
The WebGLRenderingContext
interface provides an interface to the OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics rendering context for the drawing surface of an HTML <canvas>
element.
To get an access to a WebGL context for 2D and/or 3D graphics rendering, call getContext()
on a <canvas>
element, supplying "webgl" as the argument:
var canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas');
var gl = canvas.getContext('webgl');
Once you have the WebGL rendering context for a canvas, you can render within it. The WebGL tutorial has more information, examples, and resources on how to get started with WebGL.
If you require a WebGL 2.0 context, see WebGL2RenderingContext
; this supplies access to an implementation of OpenGL ES 3.0 graphics.
Constants
See the WebGL constants page.
The WebGL context
The following properties and methods provide general information and functionality to deal with the WebGL context:
WebGLRenderingContext.canvas
- A read-only back-reference to the
HTMLCanvasElement
. Might benull
if it is not associated with a<canvas>
element. WebGLRenderingContext.commit()
Pushes frames back to the original
HTMLCanvasElement
, if the context is not directly fixed to a specific canvas.WebGLRenderingContext.drawingBufferWidth
- The read-only width of the current drawing buffer. Should match the width of the canvas element associated with this context.
WebGLRenderingContext.drawingBufferHeight
- The read-only height of the current drawing buffer. Should match the height of the canvas element associated with this context.

Examples
WebGL context feature detection
In this first example we are going to check whether the browser supports WebGL. To that end we will try to obtain the WebGL rendering context from a canvas
element. The WebGL rendering context is an interface, through which you can set and query the state of the graphics machine, send data to the WebGL, and execute draw commands.
Saving the state of the graphics machine within a single context interface is not unique to WebGL. This is also done in other graphics {̣{Glossary("API")}}, such as the canvas 2D rendering context. However, the properties and variables you can tweak are different for each API.
Effect of canvas size on rendering with WebGL
With scissor()
and clear()
we can demonstrate how the WebGL drawing buffer is affected by the size of the canvas.
The size of the first canvas is set to the styled Element
size, determined by CSS. This is done by assigning the width
and height
properties of the canvas to the values of the clientWidth
and clientHeight
properties, respectively.
In contrast, no such assignment is done for the second canvas. The internal width
and height
properties of the canvas remain at default values, which are different than the actual size of the canvas Element
in the browser window.
The effect is clearly visible when using scissor()
and clear()
to draw a square in the center of the canvas, by specifying its position and size in pixels. In the first canvas, we get the desired result. In the second, the square has the wrong shape, size, and position.
<p>Compare the two canvases.</p>

canvas {
display : inline-block;
width : 120px;

margin : auto;
padding : 0;
border : none;
background-color : black;
}
window.addEventListener("load", function() {
"use strict"
var firstCanvas = document.getElementsByTagName("canvas")[0],
secondCanvas = document.getElementsByTagName("canvas")[1];
firstCanvas.width = firstCanvas.clientWidth;
firstCanvas.height = firstCanvas.clientHeight;
[firstCanvas, secondCanvas].forEach(function(canvas) {
var gl = canvas.getContext("webgl")
|| canvas.getContext("experimental-webgl");
if (!gl) {
document.querySelector("p").innerHTML =
"Failed to get WebGL context. "
+ "Your browser or device may not support WebGL.";
return;
}
gl.viewport(0, 0,
gl.drawingBufferWidth, gl.drawingBufferHeight);
gl.enable(gl.SCISSOR_TEST);
gl.scissor(30, 10, 60, 60);
gl.clearColor(1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0);
gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
});
}, false);
The source code of this example is also available on GitHub.
