Features

Extras and names

By default, gltf ignores all extras and names included with glTF assets. You can negate this by enabling the extras and names features, respectively.

[dependencies.gltf]
version = "1.2"
features = ["extras", "names"]

glTF extensions

The following glTF extensions are supported by the crate:

• KHR_lights_punctual
• KHR_materials_pbrSpecularGlossiness
• KHR_materials_unlit
• KHR_texture_transform
• KHR_materials_variants
• KHR_materials_volume
• KHR_materials_specular
• KHR_materials_transmission
• KHR_materials_ior
• KHR_materials_emissive_strength

To use an extension, list its name in the features section.

[dependencies.gltf]
features = ["KHR_materials_unlit"]

Examples

gltf-display

Demonstrates how the glTF JSON is deserialized.

gltf-export

Demonstrates how glTF JSON can be built and exported using the gltf-json crate.

cargo run --example gltf-export

gltf-roundtrip

Deserializes and serializes the JSON part of a glTF asset.

cargo run --example gltf-roundtrip path/to/asset.gltf

gltf-tree

Visualises the scene heirarchy of a glTF asset, which is a strict tree of nodes.

cargo run --example gltf-tree path/to/asset.gltf
