The label property of the GPUSampler interface provides a label that can be used to identify the object, for example in GPUError messages or console warnings.

This can be set by providing a label property in the descriptor object passed into the originating GPUDevice.createSampler() call, or you can get and set it directly on the GPUSampler object.

A string. If this has not been previously set as described above, it will be an empty string.

Setting and getting a label via GPUSampler.label:

// ...

const sampler = device.createSampler({
  compare: "less",
});

sampler.label = "mysampler";

console.log(sampler.label); // "mysampler"

Setting a label via the originating GPUDevice.createSampler() call, and then getting it via GPUSampler.label:

// ...

const sampler = device.createSampler({
  compare: "less",
  label: "mysampler",
});

console.log(sampler.label); // "mysampler"
