So here is a previous question: How to implement a ShaderToy shader in three.js
Tried to implement the steps from the link above into this code unsucessfully: three.js/blob/master/examples/webgl_shader.html
So I replaced the original vertex shader and the origianl fragment shader so I got this code:
<script id="vertexShader" type="x-shader/x-vertex">
varying vec2 vUv;
void main()
{
vUv = uv;
vec4 mvPosition = modelViewMatrix * vec4(position, 1.0 );
gl_Position = projectionMatrix * mvPosition;
}
</script>
<script id="fragmentShader" type="x-shader/x-fragment">
uniform float iGlobalTime;
uniform sampler2D iChannel0;
uniform sampler2D iChannel1;
varying vec2 vUv;
void main(void)
{
vec2 p = -1.0 + 2.0 *vUv;
vec2 q = p - vec2(0.5, 0.5);
q.x += sin(iGlobalTime* 0.6) * 0.2;
q.y += cos(iGlobalTime* 0.4) * 0.3;
float len = length(q);
float a = atan(q.y, q.x) + iGlobalTime * 0.3;
float b = atan(q.y, q.x) + iGlobalTime * 0.3;
float r1 = 0.3 / len + iGlobalTime * 0.5;
float r2 = 0.2 / len + iGlobalTime * 0.5;
float m = (1.0 + sin(iGlobalTime * 0.5)) / 2.0;
vec4 tex1 = texture2D(iChannel0, vec2(a + 0.1 / len, r1 ));
vec4 tex2 = texture2D(iChannel1, vec2(b + 0.1 / len, r2 ));
vec3 col = vec3(mix(tex1, tex2, m));
gl_FragColor = vec4(col * len * 1.5, 1.0);
}
</script>
This is clear but how and Where to implement the tuniform:
var tuniform = {
iGlobalTime: { type: 'f', value: 0.1 },
iChannel0: { type: 't', value: THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( 'textures/tex07.jpg') },
iChannel1: { type: 't', value: THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture( 'textures/infi.jpg' ) },
};
and the iGlobalTime parts?
tuniform.iChannel0.value.wrapS = tuniform.iChannel0.value.wrapT = THREE.RepeatWrapping;
tuniform.iChannel1.value.wrapS = tuniform.iChannel1.value.wrapT = THREE.RepeatWrapping;
So my question is: how to modify this code (or any thrre.js code): three.js/blob/master/examples/webgl_shader.html
to display a working shadertoy example which includes iGlobalTime as well?

To convert any shader from shadertoy to a three.js shader, you just have to have the correct variables/uniforms. Shadertoy has uniforms available that three.js shaders do not by default. Shadertoy has the iResolution uniform for example, which you will not have in a three.js shader as Shadertoy is for rendering on a flat canvas rather than a 3d object. iGlobalTime is also one of these uniforms that is not in a three.js shader by default.
In the code you posted, you have defined the iGlobalTime uniform corrrectly, you just need create a THREE.Clock once when you code first runs, then you need to update the uniform in your render function.
I have implemented this matrix style shader which uses iGlobalTime in three.js here
