add a way to name uniform / texture

[Makio64]

Description

For helping debugging it will be great to add a .name( ... ) so we can do let opacity = uniform( 0.5 ).name('opacity').

Currently it seems only varying and var can be name.

Solution

uniform(...).name( name )
texture(...).name( name ) as texture extends uniform it didnt need extra code

Alternatives

.name( name ) also for varying and toVar.

NOTE : let txt = texture( ... ).toVar( name ) is not working as after we cant use it with txt.sample(...) for example.

Example

This demonstrate the .toVar( .. ) not working with texture(...)

Have you tried with .label()?

Thanks @sunag , it does what i was looking for.

It's worth adding it to the wiki : https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/wiki/Three.js-Shading-Language

Also would you consider change .label( name ) to .name( name ) ?
.name( name ) seems more simple and align with little-gui as well as the current doc in the wiki : .toVar( name = null )
