# Header only C++ tiny glTF library(loader/saver).
`TinyGLTF` is a header only C++11 glTF 2.0 https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF library.
`TinyGLTF` uses dropbox/json11 JSON library(https://github.com/dropbox/json11), so now it requires C++11 compiler.
If you are looking for old, C++03 version, please use `devel-picojson` branch.
## Status
v2.2.0 Use dropbox/json11 instead of nlohmann's json.hpp
v2.0.0 release(22 Aug, 2018)!

* [x] ASCII glTF
* [x] Binary glTF(GLB)
* [x] PBR material description
* Buffers
* [x] Parse BASE64 encoded embedded buffer data(DataURI).
* [x] Load `.bin` file.
* Image(Using stb_image)
* [x] Parse BASE64 encoded embedded image data(DataURI).
* [x] Load external image file.
* [x] PNG(8bit only)
* [x] JPEG(8bit only)
* [x] BMP
* [x] GIF
* [x] Custom Image decoder callback(e.g. for decoding OpenEXR image)
* Load from memory
* Custom callback handler
* [x] Image load
* Extensions
* [x] Draco mesh decoding
## Examples
* [glview](examples/glview) : Simple glTF geometry viewer.
* [validator](examples/validator) : Simple glTF validator with JSON schema.
* [basic](examples/basic) : Basic glTF viewer with texturing support.

* stb_image.h : v2.08 - public domain image loader - [Github link](https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/stb_image.h)

## Build and example
Copy `stb_image.h`, `stb_image_write.h`, and `tiny_gltf.h` to your project.
json11 code is embeded into `tiny_gltf.h`
### Loading glTF 2.0 model
```c++
// Define these only in *one* .cc file.
#define TINYGLTF_IMPLEMENTATION
#define STB_IMAGE_IMPLEMENTATION
#define STB_IMAGE_WRITE_IMPLEMENTATION
// Optional. Uncomment these if you want external json11.cpp instead of embedded json11.cpp code
//#define TINYGLTF_USE_EXTERNAL_JSON11_CPP
//#include "json11.hpp"
#include "tiny_gltf.h"
using namespace tinygltf;
Model model;
TinyGLTF loader;
std::string err;
std::string warn;
bool ret = loader.LoadASCIIFromFile(&model, &err, &warn, argv[1]);
//bool ret = loader.LoadBinaryFromFile(&model, &err, &warn, argv[1]); // for binary glTF(.glb)
if (!warn.empty()) {
printf("Warn: %s\n", warn.c_str());
}
if (!err.empty()) {
printf("Err: %s\n", err.c_str());
}
if (!ret) {
printf("Failed to parse glTF\n");
return -1;
}
```
## Compile options
* `TINYGLTF_NO_STB_IMAGE` : Do not load images with stb_image. Instead use `TinyGLTF::SetImageLoader(LoadimageDataFunction LoadImageData, void *user_data)` to set a callback for loading images.
* `TINYGLTF_NO_STB_IMAGE_WRITE` : Do not write images with stb_image_write. Instead use `TinyGLTF::SetImageWriter(WriteimageDataFunction WriteImageData, void *user_data)` to set a callback for writing images.
* `TINYGLTF_NO_EXTERNAL_IMAGE` : Do not try to load external image file. This option woulde be helpful if you do not want load image file during glTF parsing.
* `TINYGLTF_ANDROID_LOAD_FROM_ASSETS`: Load all files from packaged app assets instead of the regular file system. **Note:** You must pass a valid asset manager from your android app to `tinygltf::asset_manager` beforehand.
* `TINYGLTF_ENABLE_DRACO`: Enable Draco compression. User must provide include path and link correspnding libraries in your project file.
* `TINYGLTF_USE_EXTERNAL_JSON11_CPP` : Use externally supplied json11.cpp/json11.hpp. This option may be helpful if you use json11.cpp in other source codes of your project.
### Saving gltTF 2.0 model
* [ ] Buffers.
* [x] To file
* [x] Embedded
* [ ] Draco compressed?
* [x] Images
* [x] To file
* [x] Embedded
* [ ] Binary(.glb)
## Running tests.
### glTF parsing test
#### Setup
Python 2.6 or 2.7 required.
Git clone https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF-Sample-Models to your local dir.
#### Run parsing test
After building `loader_example`, edit `test_runner.py`, then,
```bash
$ python test_runner.py
```
### Unit tests
```bash
$ cd tests
$ make
$ ./tester
$ ./tester_noexcept
```
