getSerializationCls()
staticgetSerializationCls():SerializableClass
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/material/pbr.ts:315
Gets the serialization descriptor for this node type
Returns
Serialization class descriptor
Remarks
No additional properties need to be serialized beyond the base node data and input connections.
toString()
toString():
string
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/material/pbr.ts:333
Generates a string representation of this node
Returns
string
'Output'
Remarks
This node is typically labeled "Output" in the material editor UI as it represents the final material output.
Overrides
validate()
protectedvalidate():string
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/material/pbr.ts:347
Validates the node state
Returns
string
Empty string (always valid)
Remarks
The PBR output node is always valid because:
- All inputs are optional (have default values)
- Type conversions are handled automatically (float → vec3, etc.)
- It's the terminal node with no type inference requirements
Overrides
getType()
protectedgetType():string
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/material/pbr.ts:359
Gets the output type
Returns
string
Empty string (no outputs)
Remarks
As a terminal output node, PBRBlockNode has no outputs. It consumes the material graph data and provides it to the renderer.
Overrides
getOutputType()
getOutputType(
id):string
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/node.ts:376
Gets the output type for a specific output slot
Parameters
id
number
The output slot ID
Returns
string
The type name of the output
Remarks
Default implementation delegates to the abstract getType() method. Can be overridden for more complex type logic.
Inherited from
check()
check():
void
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/node.ts:413
Validates the node and updates error state
Returns
void
Remarks
Calls the validate() method and stores the result in _error. Emits a 'changed' event if the error state changes.
Inherited from
reset()
reset():
void
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/node.ts:422
Clears the error state
Returns
void
Remarks
Sets _error to an empty string.
Inherited from
setInput()
setInput(
id,node,inputId):void
Defined in: libs/scene/src/utility/blueprint/node.ts:443
Connects an input slot to another node's output
Parameters
id
number
The input slot ID to connect
node
The source node to connect from
inputId
number
The output slot ID of the source node
Returns
void
Throws
Error if the input slot with the given ID doesn't exist
Example
const addNode = new AddNode();
const constantNode = new ConstantNode(5.0);
// Connect constantNode's output 0 to addNode's input 0
addNode.setInput(0, constantNode, 0);
