ScriptingSpark

Description

This Scripting Spark is useful for any developer who has Javascript knowledge but is not familiar with C + + language, which is the language being used to develop the sparks.

Use

The spark will provide the following interfaces:

Spark Connections

Asking Interfaces	Answering Interfaces
IAnimation IApplication IAsyncFatalError IAudioQueue ICamera IConcurrent IControlVoice IDetectedFacePosition IEyes IFaceExpression INeck IRenderizable IThreadProc IVoice IWindow	IAnimation IApplication IAsyncFatalError IAudioQueue ICamera IConcurrent IControlVoice IDetectedFacePosition IEyes IFaceExpression INeck IRenderizable IThreadProc IVoice IWindow

In order to provide a function you need to implement it in the Javascript file

You can use the following required functions. In this functions the first param is always the component.

• IAnimation

playAnimationRequired (component, animationFileName), where animationFileName is the name of file.

• IApplication

runRequired(component)

• IAsyncFatalError

handleErrorRequired(component, msg), where msg is the error message to show.

• IAudioQueue

getStoredAudioSizeRequired(component)

dequeueAudioBufferRequired(component,buffer,size), where buffer is the content in the buffer and size is its size .

• ICamera

setCameraPositionRequired(component,x,y,z) , where the values x, y, z are float.

setCameraRotationRequired(component,x,y,z) , where the values x, y, z are float.

setCameraParametersRequired(component, IsOrtho, VisionAngle, nearClippingPlane, FarClippingPlane) , whre IsOrtho is a boolean variable and the rest are float.

• IConcurrent

startRequired(component)

stopRequired(component)

• IControlVoice

startSpeakingRequired(component)

stopSpeakingRequired(component)

startVoiceRequired(component)

• IDetectedFacePosition

consumeDetectedFacePositionRequired(component, isFaceDetected,x,y) , where the variable isFaceDetected is boolean and the rest are float.

• IEyes

rotateEyeRequired(component, pan, tilt), where the variables are float.

• IFaceExpression

setFaceExpressionRequired(component, expressionName, intensity), where expressionName is the expression name and intensity is float.

• INeck

rotateHeadRequired(component,pan,tilt), where the variables are float.

• IRenderizable

renderRequired(component)

getCamaraNodeRequired(component)

• IThreadProc

processRequired(component)

• IVoice

sayThisRequired(component, prompt), where the prompt is the string.

waitEndOfSpeechRequired(component)

stopSpeechRequired(component)

• IWindow

getWindowDisplayRequired(component)

showRequired(component)

hideRequired(component)

getColorDepthRequired(component)

makeCurrentopenGlThreadRequired(component)

openGlSwapBuffersRequired(component)

Besides all these there is also a function Log(component, msg) ,which shows the message in the debug mode.

Example

This example positions the camera in the right place using the functions provided by the interface ICamera.

function Initialize() {
log(component,"JS SIDE ====> calling log ..");
setCameraRotationRequired(component,0,0,0);
setCameraParametersRequired(component,false,45, 80,1000);
setCameraPositionRequired(component,0.63,150,90);
}
Initialize();
