Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
params Object <optional>

The params.
Example

Creating a Tube from a three.js Curve, and adding it to app

const CustomSinCurve = THREE.Curve.create(
  function (scale) { // custom curve constructor
    this.scale = (scale === undefined) ? 1 : scale;
  },

  function (t) { // getPoint: t is between 0-1
    const tx = t * 3 - 1.5,
    ty = Math.sin( 2 * Math.PI * t ),
    tz = 0;

    return new THREE.Vector3(tx, ty, tz).multiplyScalar(this.scale);
  }
);

const path = new CustomSinCurve(10);

new Tube({
  geometry: {
    path: path
  },

  material: new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({
    color: 0xffffff
  })
}).addTo(app);
