Face Mesh Texture Filter

import { onStart } from '@needle-tools/engine';
import { FaceMeshTexture, NeedleFaceFilterTrackingManager } from '@needle-tools/facefilter';

onStart(context => {
  const scene = context.scene;

  // Create a face filter tracking manager and add it to the scene
  const filtermanager = new NeedleFaceFilterTrackingManager();
  filtermanager.createMenuButton = true;
  scene.addComponent(filtermanager);

  // Creating a filter
  const filter = new FaceMeshTexture({
    layout: 'procreate', // we support both the google/mediapipe canonical layout and procreate/arkit layouts
    texture: {
      url: './assets/crocodile.webp', // provide a URL to the texture
      // texture: <your texture> // alternatively you can assign an existing texture directly
    },
  });
  // Activate one of your filters
  filtermanager.activateFilter(filter);
