<brief_description>
A shader implemented in the Godot shading language.
</brief_description>
<description>
A custom shader program implemented in the Godot shading language, saved with the [code].gdshader[/code] extension.
This class is used by a [ShaderMaterial] and allows you to write your own custom behavior for rendering visual items or updating particle information. For a detailed explanation and usage, please see the tutorials linked below.

<method name="get_default_texture_parameter" qualifiers="const">
<return type="Texture" />
<param index="0" name="name" type="StringName" />
<param index="1" name="index" type="int" default="0" />
<description>
Returns the texture that is set as default for the specified parameter.
[b]Note:[/b] [param name] must match the name of the uniform in the code exactly.
[b]Note:[/b] If the sampler array is used use [param index] to access the specified texture.

<method name="get_mode" qualifiers="const">
<return type="int" enum="Shader.Mode" />
<description>
Returns the shader mode for the shader.

</method>
<method name="get_shader_uniform_list">
<return type="Array" />
<param index="0" name="get_groups" type="bool" default="false" />
<description>
Get the list of shader uniforms that can be assigned to a [ShaderMaterial], for use with [method ShaderMaterial.set_shader_parameter] and [method ShaderMaterial.get_shader_parameter]. The parameters returned are contained in dictionaries in a similar format to the ones returned by [method Object.get_property_list].
If argument [param get_groups] is true, parameter grouping hints will be provided.

<method name="set_default_texture_parameter">
<return type="void" />
<param index="0" name="name" type="StringName" />
<param index="1" name="texture" type="Texture" />
<param index="2" name="index" type="int" default="0" />
<description>
Sets the default texture to be used with a texture uniform. The default is used if a texture is not set in the [ShaderMaterial].
[b]Note:[/b] [param name] must match the name of the uniform in the code exactly.
[b]Note:[/b] If the sampler array is used use [param index] to access the specified texture.
