jit.gl.lua OpenGL Bindings
The OpenGL bindings for jit.gl.lua are found in the module, which is built-in to the object. To access the bindings, simpply use the built-in Lua function, , to load the module as follows:
-- load in the module and set some aliaseslocal gl = require("opengl")
local GL = gl
The idiom above allows us to write code that more closely resembles C-style OpenGL code. For the OpenGL Utility (GLU) functions see the For the standard OpenGL bindings, see the jit.gl.lua OpenGL GLU Bindings.

- Specifies an array or list of one, two, three, or four elements, which in turn specify the s, t, r, and q texture coordinates.
TexEnv(target, pname, param)
Set texture environment parameters
OpenGL Documentation: glTexEnv
- Specifies a texture environment. May be GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_FILTER_CONTROL or GL_POINT_SPRITE.
- Specifies the symbolic name of a single-valued texture environment parameter. May be either GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_TEXTURE_LOD_BIAS, GL_COMBINE_RGB, GL_COMBINE_ALPHA, GL_SRC0_RGB, GL_SRC1_RGB, GL_SRC2_RGB, GL_SRC0_ALPHA, GL_SRC1_ALPHA, GL_SRC2_ALPHA, GL_OPERAND0_RGB, GL_OPERAND1_RGB, GL_OPERAND2_RGB, GL_OPERAND0_ALPHA, GL_OPERAND1_ALPHA, GL_OPERAND2_ALPHA, GL_RGB_SCALE, GL_ALPHA_SCALE, or GL_COORD_REPLACE.
- Specifies a single symbolic constant, one of GL_ADD, GL_ADD_SIGNED, GL_INTERPOLATE, GL_MODULATE, GL_DECAL, GL_BLEND, GL_REPLACE, GL_SUBTRACT, GL_COMBINE, GL_TEXTURE, GL_CONSTANT, GL_PRIMARY_COLOR, GL_PREVIOUS, GL_SRC_COLOR, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_COLOR, GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA, a single boolean value for the point sprite texture coordinate replacement, a single floating-point value for the texture level-of-detail bias, or 1.0, 2.0, or 4.0 when specifying the GL_RGB_SCALE or GL_ALPHA_SCALE.
TexGen(coord, pname, param)
Control the generation of texture coordinates
OpenGL Documentation: glTexGen
- Specifies a texture coordinate. Must be one of GL_S, GL_T, GL_R, or GL_Q.
- Specifies the symbolic name of the texture-coordinate generation function. Must be GL_TEXTURE_GEN_MODE.
- Specifies a single-valued texture generation parameter, one of GL_OBJECT_LINEAR, GL_EYE_LINEAR, GL_SPHERE_MAP, GL_NORMAL_MAP, or GL_REFLECTION_MAP.
TexParameter(target, pname, param)
Set texture parameters
OpenGL Documentation: glTexParameter
- Specifies the target texture, which must be either GL_TEXTURE_1D, GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_3D, or GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP.
- Specifies the symbolic name of a single-valued texture parameter. pname can be one of the following: GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_LOD, GL_TEXTURE_MAX_LOD, GL_TEXTURE_BASE_LEVEL, GL_TEXTURE_MAX_LEVEL, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_R, GL_TEXTURE_PRIORITY, GL_TEXTURE_COMPARE_MODE, GL_TEXTURE_COMPARE_FUNC, GL_DEPTH_TEXTURE_MODE, or GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP.
- Specifies the value of pname.
Translate(...)
Multiply the current matrix by a translation matrix
OpenGL Documentation: glTranslate
- Specify an array or list of 3 values of translation vector
Vertex(..)
Specify a vertex
OpenGL Documentation: glVertex
- Specifies an array or list of two, three, or four elements, which in turn specify the x, y, z, and w vertex coordinates.
Viewport(x, y, width, height)
Set the viewport
OpenGL Documentation: glViewport
- Specify the x-coordinate of the lower left corner of the viewport rectangle.
- Specify the y-coordinate of the lower left corner of the viewport rectangle.
- Specify the width of the viewport rectangle.
- Specify the height of the viewport rectangle.
