NAME


            

              
              
Math::SegmentedEnvelope - create/manage/evaluate segmented (curved) envelope

SYNOPSIS


            

              
              
my $e = Math::SegmentedEnvelope->new; # creates random envelope with total duration = 1
$e->segments; # number of segments
$e->levels(map $_ * 3, $e->levels); # alter levels
$e->durs(map $_ * (rand(0.5) + 0.5), $e->durs); # alter segments durations
$e->curves(map $_ + 1, $e->curves); # alter curves
$e->level( # alter start level of first segment and set it value to end level of last segment
    $self->segments,
    $e->level(0, $self->level(0) - 1)
);
$e->curve(0, 3); # set curvative for first segment
$e->dur(0, 0.2); # set duration of first segment, so overall duration will changed
$e->duration; # get it
$e->normalize_duration; # scale segment durs so envelope duration will be 1

DESCRIPTION


            

              
              
This module gives abstraction of segmeneted envelope. You can create, modify and make static evaluators, which is faster than object method C<at> calling.

METHODS

new($definiton, %params)

            

              
              
$definition is a 3 element arrayref of arrayrefs - [[@levels], [@durations], [@curves]]
%params can provide additional params such C<is_hold>,C<is_morph>,C<morpher>,C<is_fold_over>,C<is_wrap_neg>
if nothing specified, than random normalized envelope will be created
at($pos)

            

              
              
get value at specified position, position can be out of envelope duration, so it will hold or wrap or fold according configuration [arameters C<is_hold>, C<is_fold_over> and C<is_wrap_neg>
static

            

              
              
returns static evaluator (i.e. coderef) with current envelope object settings
table($size)

            

              
              
returns lookup table (i.e. list of values) of specified size(default = 1024) which represents current form of the envelope
is_morph(0|1)

            

              
              
get/set flag which turns on value morphing inside segment before applying curving and scaling. default = 0
morpher(sub {...})

            

              
              
get/set morpher, default morpher is a C<sub { sin(PI/2*$_[0]) }> which smoothes envelope, morpher recieves value from 0 to 1 and should also has same output range
is_hold(0|1)

            

              
              
when this flag is turned on than C<at> method and static evaluator with out-of-duration argument will return boundary levels. default = 0
is_fold_over(0|1)

            

              
              
when this flag is turned on and C<is_hold> is turned off than C<at> argument greater than envelope duration will be folded around envelope duration insted of wraping. default = 0
is_wrap_neg(0|1)

            

              
              
when this flag is turned on and C<is_hold> is turned off than C<at> argument < 0 will be wraped around envelope insted of folding. default = 0
segments

            

              
              
returns number of segments
duration

            

              
              
returns total envelope duration
normalize_duration

            

              
              
scale segment durations, so total duration becomes 1
def

            

              
              
returns current envelope definition (see L<new> method)
levels(@new_levels)

            

              
              
get/set envelope levels, if setting than provided list must have equal length to levels specified in initial definition (i.e. C<segments + 1>)
level($pos, [$level])

            

              
              
get/set level at position
durs([@new_durs])

            

              
              
same as C<levels>, but get/sets durations for segments
dur($pos, [$level])

            

              
              
get/set dur at position
curves([@new_curves])

            

              
              
same as durs, but for curves
curve($pos, [$level])

            

              
              
get/set curvative at position

Animation

            

              
              
use AnyEvent; # and/or Coro
my $e = Math::SegmentedEnvelope->new(is_morph => 1);
my $v = 0; # some property
my $w = AE::timer(0, 1/60, sub { # refresh $v with 60Hz rate
     state $s = $e->static; # get static evaluator
     state $started = AE::now;
     $v = $s->(AE::now - $started); # or $e->at(..) if $e can be altered somewhere
});
my $k = AE::timer(10, 0, sub { undef $w }); # kill previous timer after 10secs
my $i = AE::idle(sub { ... }); # animate $v using OpenGL, SDL and etc..
AE::cv->recv;
