XRInputSourceArray: length property
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The read-only length
property returns an integer value
indicating the number of items in the input source list represented by
the XRInputSourceArray
object.
Value
An integer value indicating the number of XRInputSource
objects
representing WebXR input sources are included in the array.
Examples
In this example, a game that requires at least one input source
uses length
to check this before proceeding to allow the user to play the
game.
js
let sources = xrSession.inputSources;
if (sources.length === 0) {
showAlertDialog(
"You need to have at least one controller to play Super Duper Shark Jump Fest 9000.",
[
{ label: "Shop Now", url: "https://www.example.com/shop/controllers" },
{ label: "Quit", handler: quitGame },
]
);
}
Here, if length
is 0, a
hypothetical showAlertDialog()
function is called with a prompt string
explaining the need for a controller, and an array of objects, each describing a button
and what should happen when it's clicked. The first takes the user to an Amazon.com
search for VR controllers, and the second calls a quitGame()
function to
start shutting the game program down.
