Cyfra

Library provides a way to compile Scala 3 DSL to SPIR-V and to run it with Vulkan runtime on GPUs.

It is multiplatform. It works on:

• Linux, Windows, and Mac (for Mac requires installation of moltenvk).
• Any dedicated or integrated GPUs that support Vulkan. In practice, it means almost all moderately modern devices from most manufacturers including Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Apple.

Animations

Included Foton library provides a clean and fun way to animate functions and ray traced scenes.

Examples

Simple example

//> using scala "3.6.4"
//> using dep "io.computenode::cyfra-foton:0.1.0-RC1"

import io.computenode.cyfra.dsl.{*, given}
import io.computenode.cyfra.foton.GFunction
import io.computenode.cyfra.runtime.VkCyfraRuntime

@main
def multiplyByTwo(): Unit =
  VkCyfraRuntime.using:
    val input = (0 until 256).map(_.toFloat).toArray

    val doubleIt: GFunction[GStruct.Empty, Float32, Float32] = GFunction: x =>
      x * 2.0f

    val result: Array[Float] = doubleIt.run(input)

    println(s"Output: ${result.take(10).mkString(", ")}...")

Run it with:

scala filename.scala

//> using dep "org.lwjgl:lwjgl:3.4.0,classifier=natives-macos-arm64"
//> using dep "org.lwjgl:lwjgl-vulkan:3.4.0,classifier=natives-macos-arm64"
//> using dep "org.lwjgl:lwjgl-vma:3.4.0,classifier=natives-macos-arm64"

Development

To enable validation layers for vulkan, you need to install vulkan SDK. After installing, set the following VM option:

-Dio.computenode.cyfra.vulkan.validation=true

If you are on MacOs, then also add:

-Dorg.lwjgl.vulkan.libname=libvulkan.1.dylib
-Djava.library.path=$VULKAN_SDK/lib
