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 Niels Lohmann's json library(https://github.com/nlohmann/json), so now it requires C++11 compiler. If you are looking for old, C++03 version, please use devel-picojson branch.

Status

v2.0.0 release(22 Aug, 2018)!

Features

  • Written in portable C++. C++-11 with STL dependency only.
    • [x] macOS + clang(LLVM)

    • [x] Windows + MinGW
    • [x] Windows + Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 or later.
      • Visual Studio 2013 is not supported since they have limited C++11 support and failed to compile json.hpp.
    • [x] Android NDK
    • [x] Android + CrystaX(NDK drop-in replacement) GCC
    • [x] Web using Emscripten(LLVM)
  • Moderate parsing time and memory consumption.
  • glTF specification v2.0.0
    • [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

Build and example

Copy stb_image.h, stb_image_write.h, json.hpp and tiny_gltf.h to your project.

Loading glTF 2.0 model

// Define these only in *one* .cc file.
#define TINYGLTF_IMPLEMENTATION
#define STB_IMAGE_IMPLEMENTATION
#define STB_IMAGE_WRITE_IMPLEMENTATION
// #define TINYGLTF_NOEXCEPTION // optional. disable exception handling.
#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_NOEXCEPTION : Disable C++ exception in JSON parsing. You can use -fno-exceptions or by defining the symbol JSON_NOEXCEPTION and TINYGLTF_NOEXCEPTION to fully remove C++ exception codes when compiling TinyGLTF.
  • 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.

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,

$ python test_runner.py

Unit tests

$ cd tests
$ make
$ ./tester
$ ./tester_noexcept
