When Phaser boots it will create an instance of this Texture Manager class.

It is a global manager that handles all textures in your game. You can access it from within a Scene via the this.textures property.

Its role is as a manager for all textures that your game uses. It can create, update and remove textures globally, as well as parse texture data from external files, such as sprite sheets and texture atlases.

Sprites and other texture-based Game Objects get their texture data directly from this class.

Constructor:

new TextureManager(game)

name type description
game Phaser.Game

addDynamicTexture(key, [width], [height])
Focus
Focus

Description:

Creates a Dynamic Texture instance and adds itself to this Texture Manager.

A Dynamic Texture is a special texture that allows you to draw textures, frames and most kind of Game Objects directly to it.

You can take many complex objects and draw them to this one texture, which can then be used as the base texture for other Game Objects, such as Sprites. Should you then update this texture, all Game Objects using it will instantly be updated as well, reflecting the changes immediately.

It's a powerful way to generate dynamic textures at run-time that are WebGL friendly and don't invoke expensive GPU uploads on each change.

See the methods available on the DynamicTexture class for more details.

Optionally, you can also pass a Dynamic Texture instance to this method to have it added to the Texture Manager.

Parameters:

name type arguments Default description
key string | Phaser.Textures.DynamicTexture

The string-based key of this Texture. Must be unique within the Texture Manager. Or, a DynamicTexture instance.

width number <optional> 256

The width of this Dynamic Texture in pixels. Defaults to 256 x 256. Ignored if an instance is passed as the key.

height number <optional> 256

The height of this Dynamic Texture in pixels. Defaults to 256 x 256. Ignored if an instance is passed as the key.

Returns:
Description:

The Dynamic Texture that was created, or null if the key is already in use.

Since: 3.60.0
Focus
Focus
addGLTexture(key, glTexture)
Focus
Focus

Description:

This allows you to then use the Texture as a normal texture for texture based Game Objects like Sprites.

This is a WebGL only feature.

Prior to Phaser 3.80.0, this method took a bare WebGLTexture as the glTexture parameter. You must now wrap the WebGLTexture in a WebGLTextureWrapper instance before passing it to this method.

generate(key, config)
Focus
Focus

Description:

Creates a new Texture using the given config values.

Generated textures consist of a Canvas element to which the texture data is drawn.

Generates a texture based on the given Create configuration object.

The texture is drawn using a fixed-size indexed palette of 16 colors, where the hex value in the data cells map to a single color. For example, if the texture config looked like this:

var star = [
  '.....828.....',
  '....72227....',
  '....82228....',
  '...7222227...',
  '2222222222222',
  '8222222222228',
  '.72222222227.',
  '..787777787..',
  '..877777778..',
  '.78778887787.',
  '.27887.78872.',
  '.787.....787.'
];

this.textures.generate('star', { data: star, pixelWidth: 4 });

Then it would generate a texture that is 52 x 48 pixels in size, because each cell of the data array represents 1 pixel multiplied by the pixelWidth value. The cell values, such as 8, maps to color number 8 in the palette. If a cell contains a period character . then it is transparent.

The default palette is Arne16, but you can specify your own using the palette property.

Parameters:

name type description
key string

The unique string-based key of the Texture.
