## Cargo Features
Bevy exposes many features to customise the engine. Enabling them add functionalities but often come at the cost of longer compilation times and extra dependencies.
### Default Features
The default feature set enables most of the expected features of a game engine, like rendering in both 2D and 3D, asset loading, audio and UI. To help reduce compilation time, consider disabling default features and enabling only those you need.

Add mesh picking backend and `MeshRayCast` system parameter (#15800)
# Objective
Closes #15545.
`bevy_picking` supports UI and sprite picking, but not mesh picking.
Being able to pick meshes would be extremely useful for various games,
tools, and our own examples, as well as scene editors and inspectors.
So, we need a mesh picking backend!
Luckily,
[`bevy_mod_picking`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking) (which
`bevy_picking` is based on) by @aevyrie already has a [backend for
it](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking/blob/74f0c3c0fbc8048632ba46fd8f14e26aaea9c76c/backends/bevy_picking_raycast/src/lib.rs)
using [`bevy_mod_raycast`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_raycast).
As a side product of adding mesh picking, we also get support for
performing ray casts on meshes!
## Solution
Upstream a large chunk of the immediate-mode ray casting functionality
from `bevy_mod_raycast`, and add a mesh picking backend based on
`bevy_mod_picking`. Huge thanks to @aevyrie who did all the hard work on
these incredible crates!
All meshes are pickable by default. Picking can be disabled for
individual entities by adding `PickingBehavior::IGNORE`, like normal.
Or, if you want mesh picking to be entirely opt-in, you can set
`MeshPickingBackendSettings::require_markers` to `true` and add a
`RayCastPickable` component to the desired camera and target entities.
You can also use the new `MeshRayCast` system parameter to cast rays
into the world manually:
```rust
fn ray_cast_system(mut ray_cast: MeshRayCast, foo_query: Query<(), With<Foo>>) {
let ray = Ray3d::new(Vec3::ZERO, Dir3::X);
// Only ray cast against entities with the `Foo` component.
let filter = |entity| foo_query.contains(entity);
// Never early-exit. Note that you can change behavior per-entity.
let early_exit_test = |_entity| false;
// Ignore the visibility of entities. This allows ray casting hidden entities.
let visibility = RayCastVisibility::Any;
let settings = RayCastSettings::default()
.with_filter(&filter)
.with_early_exit_test(&early_exit_test)
.with_visibility(visibility);
// Cast the ray with the settings, returning a list of intersections.
let hits = ray_cast.cast_ray(ray, &settings);
}
```
This is largely a direct port, but I did make several changes to match
our APIs better, remove things we don't need or that I think are
unnecessary, and do some general improvements to code quality and
documentation.
### Changes Relative to `bevy_mod_raycast` and `bevy_mod_picking`
- Every `Raycast` and "raycast" has been renamed to `RayCast` and "ray
cast" (similar reasoning as the "Naming" section in #15724)
- `Raycast` system param has been renamed to `MeshRayCast` to avoid
naming conflicts and to be explicit that it is not for colliders
- `RaycastBackend` has been renamed to `MeshPickingBackend`
- `RayCastVisibility` variants are now `Any`, `Visible`, and
`VisibleInView` instead of `Ignore`, `MustBeVisible`, and
`MustBeVisibleAndInView`
- `NoBackfaceCulling` has been renamed to `RayCastBackfaces`, to avoid
implying that it affects the rendering of backfaces for meshes (it
doesn't)
- `SimplifiedMesh` and `RayCastBackfaces` live near other ray casting
API types, not in their own 10 LoC module
- All intersection logic and types are in the same `intersections`
module, not split across several modules
- Some intersection types have been renamed to be clearer and more
consistent
- `IntersectionData` -> `RayMeshHit`
- `RayHit` -> `RayTriangleHit`
- General documentation and code quality improvements
### Removed / Not Ported
- Removed unused ray helpers and types, like `PrimitiveIntersection`
- Removed getters on intersection types, and made their properties
public
- There is no `2d` feature, and `Raycast::mesh_query` and
`Raycast::mesh2d_query` have been merged into `MeshRayCast::mesh_query`,
which handles both 2D and 3D
- I assume this existed previously because `Mesh2dHandle` used to be in
`bevy_sprite`. Now both the 2D and 3D mesh are in `bevy_render`.
- There is no `debug` feature or ray debug rendering
- There is no deferred API (`RaycastSource`)
- There is no `CursorRayPlugin` (the picking backend handles this)
### Note for Reviewers
In case it's helpful, the [first
commit](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/commit/281638ef10ebd25f783bee2533509fdf756f7ab4)
here is essentially a one-to-one port. The rest of the commits are
primarily refactoring and cleaning things up in the ways listed earlier,
as well as changes to the module structure.
It may also be useful to compare the original [picking
backend](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_picking/blob/74f0c3c0fbc8048632ba46fd8f14e26aaea9c76c/backends/bevy_picking_raycast/src/lib.rs)
and [`bevy_mod_raycast`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_raycast) to
this PR. Feel free to mention if there are any changes that I should
revert or something I should not include in this PR.
## Testing
I tested mesh picking and relevant components in some examples, for both
2D and 3D meshes, and added a new `mesh_picking` example. I also
~~stole~~ ported over the [ray-mesh intersection
benchmark](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_mod_raycast/blob/dbc5ef32fe48997a1a7eeec7434d9dd8b829e52e/benches/ray_mesh_intersection.rs)
from `bevy_mod_raycast`.

mesh picking. This is not included in this PR.

And below is the new `mesh_picking` example:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b65c7a5a-fa3a-4c2d-8bbd-e7a2c772986e

`bevy_mod_raycast`:

Initial implementation of the Bevy Remote Protocol (Adopted) (#14880)
# Objective
Adopted from #13563.
The goal is to implement the Bevy Remote Protocol over HTTP/JSON,
allowing the ECS to be interacted with remotely.
## Solution
At a high level, there are really two separate things that have been
undertaken here:
1. First, `RemotePlugin` has been created, which has the effect of
embedding a [JSON-RPC](https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification) endpoint
into a Bevy application.
2. Second, the [Bevy Remote Protocol
verbs](https://gist.github.com/coreh/1baf6f255d7e86e4be29874d00137d1d#file-bevy-remote-protocol-md)
(excluding `POLL`) have been implemented as remote methods for that
JSON-RPC endpoint under a Bevy-exclusive namespace (e.g. `bevy/get`,
`bevy/list`, etc.).
To avoid some repetition, here is the crate-level documentation, which
explains the request/response structure, built-in-methods, and custom
method configuration:
<details>
<summary>Click to view crate-level docs</summary>
```rust
//! An implementation of the Bevy Remote Protocol over HTTP and JSON, to allow
//! for remote control of a Bevy app.
//!
//! Adding the [`RemotePlugin`] to your [`App`] causes Bevy to accept
//! connections over HTTP (by default, on port 15702) while your app is running.
//! These *remote clients* can inspect and alter the state of the
//! entity-component system. Clients are expected to `POST` JSON requests to the
//! root URL; see the `client` example for a trivial example of use.
//!
//! The Bevy Remote Protocol is based on the JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol.
//!
//! ## Request objects
//!
//! A typical client request might look like this:
//!
//! ```json
//! {
//! "method": "bevy/get",
//! "id": 0,
//! "params": {
//! "entity": 4294967298,
//! "components": [
//! "bevy_transform::components::transform::Transform"
//! ]
//! }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The `id` and `method` fields are required. The `param` field may be omitted
//! for certain methods:
//!
//! * `id` is arbitrary JSON data. The server completely ignores its contents,
//! and the client may use it for any purpose. It will be copied via
//! serialization and deserialization (so object property order, etc. can't be
//! relied upon to be identical) and sent back to the client as part of the
//! response.
//!
//! * `method` is a string that specifies one of the possible [`BrpRequest`]
//! variants: `bevy/query`, `bevy/get`, `bevy/insert`, etc. It's case-sensitive.
//!
//! * `params` is parameter data specific to the request.
//!
//! For more information, see the documentation for [`BrpRequest`].
//! [`BrpRequest`] is serialized to JSON via `serde`, so [the `serde`
//! documentation] may be useful to clarify the correspondence between the Rust
//! structure and the JSON format.
//!
//! ## Response objects
//!
//! A response from the server to the client might look like this:
//!
//! ```json
//! {
//! "jsonrpc": "2.0",
//! "id": 0,
//! "result": {
//! "bevy_transform::components::transform::Transform": {
//! "rotation": { "x": 0.0, "y": 0.0, "z": 0.0, "w": 1.0 },
//! "scale": { "x": 1.0, "y": 1.0, "z": 1.0 },
//! "translation": { "x": 0.0, "y": 0.5, "z": 0.0 }
//! }
//! }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The `id` field will always be present. The `result` field will be present if the
//! request was successful. Otherwise, an `error` field will replace it.
//!
//! * `id` is the arbitrary JSON data that was sent as part of the request. It
//! will be identical to the `id` data sent during the request, modulo
//! serialization and deserialization. If there's an error reading the `id` field,
//! it will be `null`.
//!
//! * `result` will be present if the request succeeded and will contain the response
//! specific to the request.
//!
//! * `error` will be present if the request failed and will contain an error object
//! with more information about the cause of failure.
//!
//! ## Error objects
//!
//! An error object might look like this:
//!
//! ```json
//! {
//! "code": -32602,
//! "message": "Missing \"entity\" field"
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The `code` and `message` fields will always be present. There may also be a `data` field.
//!
//! * `code` is an integer representing the kind of an error that happened. Error codes documented
//! in the [`error_codes`] module.
//!
//! * `message` is a short, one-sentence human-readable description of the error.
//!
//! * `data` is an optional field of arbitrary type containing additional information about the error.
//!
//! ## Built-in methods
//!
//! The Bevy Remote Protocol includes a number of built-in methods for accessing and modifying data
//! in the ECS. Each of these methods uses the `bevy/` prefix, which is a namespace reserved for
//! BRP built-in methods.
//!
//! ### bevy/get
//!
//! Retrieve the values of one or more components from an entity.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `entity`: The ID of the entity whose components will be fetched.
//! - `components`: An array of fully-qualified type names of components to fetch.
//!
//! `result`: A map associating each type name to its value on the requested entity.
//!
//! ### bevy/query
//!
//! Perform a query over components in the ECS, returning all matching entities and their associated
//! component values.
//!
//! All of the arrays that comprise this request are optional, and when they are not provided, they
//! will be treated as if they were empty.
//!
//! `params`:
//! `params`:
//! - `data`:
//! - `components` (optional): An array of fully-qualified type names of components to fetch.
//! - `option` (optional): An array of fully-qualified type names of components to fetch optionally.
//! - `has` (optional): An array of fully-qualified type names of components whose presence will be
//! reported as boolean values.
//! - `filter` (optional):
//! - `with` (optional): An array of fully-qualified type names of components that must be present
//! on entities in order for them to be included in results.
//! - `without` (optional): An array of fully-qualified type names of components that must *not* be
//! present on entities in order for them to be included in results.
//!
//! `result`: An array, each of which is an object containing:
//! - `entity`: The ID of a query-matching entity.
//! - `components`: A map associating each type name from `components`/`option` to its value on the matching
//! entity if the component is present.
//! - `has`: A map associating each type name from `has` to a boolean value indicating whether or not the
//! entity has that component. If `has` was empty or omitted, this key will be omitted in the response.
//!
//! ### bevy/spawn
//!
//! Create a new entity with the provided components and return the resulting entity ID.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `components`: A map associating each component's fully-qualified type name with its value.
//!
//! `result`:
//! - `entity`: The ID of the newly spawned entity.
//!
//! ### bevy/destroy
//!
//! Despawn the entity with the given ID.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `entity`: The ID of the entity to be despawned.
//!
//! `result`: null.
//!
//! ### bevy/remove
//!
//! Delete one or more components from an entity.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `entity`: The ID of the entity whose components should be removed.
//! - `components`: An array of fully-qualified type names of components to be removed.
//!
//! `result`: null.
//!
//! ### bevy/insert
//!
//! Insert one or more components into an entity.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `entity`: The ID of the entity to insert components into.
//! - `components`: A map associating each component's fully-qualified type name with its value.
//!
//! `result`: null.
//!
//! ### bevy/reparent
//!
//! Assign a new parent to one or more entities.
//!
//! `params`:
//! - `entities`: An array of entity IDs of entities that will be made children of the `parent`.
//! - `parent` (optional): The entity ID of the parent to which the child entities will be assigned.
//! If excluded, the given entities will be removed from their parents.
//!
//! `result`: null.
//!
//! ### bevy/list
//!
//! List all registered components or all components present on an entity.
//!
//! When `params` is not provided, this lists all registered components. If `params` is provided,
//! this lists only those components present on the provided entity.
//!
//! `params` (optional):
//! - `entity`: The ID of the entity whose components will be listed.
//!
//! `result`: An array of fully-qualified type names of components.
//!
//! ## Custom methods
//!
//! In addition to the provided methods, the Bevy Remote Protocol can be extended to include custom
//! methods. This is primarily done during the initialization of [`RemotePlugin`], although the
//! methods may also be extended at runtime using the [`RemoteMethods`] resource.
//!
//! ### Example
//! ```ignore
//! fn main() {
//! App::new()
//! .add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
//! .add_plugins(
//! // `default` adds all of the built-in methods, while `with_method` extends them
//! RemotePlugin::default()
//! .with_method("super_user/cool_method".to_owned(), path::to::my::cool::handler)
//! // ... more methods can be added by chaining `with_method`
//! )
//! .add_systems(
//! // ... standard application setup
//! )
//! .run();
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The handler is expected to be a system-convertible function which takes optional JSON parameters
//! as input and returns a [`BrpResult`]. This means that it should have a type signature which looks
//! something like this:
//! ```
//! # use serde_json::Value;
//! # use bevy_ecs::prelude::{In, World};
//! # use bevy_remote::BrpResult;
//! fn handler(In(params): In<Option<Value>>, world: &mut World) -> BrpResult {
//! todo!()
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Arbitrary system parameters can be used in conjunction with the optional `Value` input. The
//! handler system will always run with exclusive `World` access.
//!
//! [the `serde` documentation]: https://serde.rs/
```
</details>
### Message lifecycle
At a high level, the lifecycle of client-server interactions is
something like this:
1. The client sends one or more `BrpRequest`s. The deserialized version
of that is just the Rust representation of a JSON-RPC request, and it
looks like this:
```rust
pub struct BrpRequest {
/// The action to be performed. Parsing is deferred for the sake of error reporting.
pub method: Option<Value>,
/// Arbitrary data that will be returned verbatim to the client as part of
/// the response.
pub id: Option<Value>,
/// The parameters, specific to each method.
///
/// These are passed as the first argument to the method handler.
/// Sometimes params can be omitted.
pub params: Option<Value>,
}
```
2. These requests are accumulated in a mailbox resource (small lie but
close enough).
3. Each update, the mailbox is drained by a system
`process_remote_requests`, where each request is processed according to
its `method`, which has an associated handler. Each handler is a Bevy
system that runs with exclusive world access and returns a result; e.g.:
```rust
pub fn process_remote_get_request(In(params): In<Option<Value>>, world: &World) -> BrpResult { // ... }
```
4. The result (or an error) is reported back to the client.
## Testing
This can be tested by using the `server` and `client` examples. The
`client` example is not particularly exhaustive at the moment (it only
creates barebones `bevy/query` requests) but is still informative. Other
queries can be made using `curl` with the `server` example running.
For example, to make a `bevy/list` request and list all registered
components:
```bash
curl -X POST -d '{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "bevy/list" }' 127.0.0.1:15702 | jq .
```
---
## Future direction
There were a couple comments on BRP versioning while this was in draft.
I agree that BRP versioning is a good idea, but I think that it requires
some consensus on a couple fronts:
- First of all, what does the version actually mean? Is it a version for
the protocol itself or for the `bevy/*` methods implemented using it?
Both?
- Where does the version actually live? The most natural place is just
where we have `"jsonrpc"` right now (at least if it's versioning the
protocol itself), but this means we're not actually conforming to
JSON-RPC any more (so, for example, any client library used to construct
JSON-RPC requests would stop working). I'm not really against that, but
it's at least a real decision.
- What do we actually do when we encounter mismatched versions? Adding
handling for this would be actual scope creep instead of just a little
add-on in my opinion.
Another thing that would be nice is making the internal structure of the
implementation less JSON-specific. Right now, for example, component
values that will appear in server responses are quite eagerly converted
to JSON `Value`s, which prevents disentangling the handler logic from
the communication medium, but it can probably be done in principle and I
imagine it would enable more code reuse (e.g. for custom method
handlers) in addition to making the internals more readily usable for
other formats.

Separate state crate (#13216)
# Objective
Extracts the state mechanisms into a new crate called "bevy_state".
This comes with a few goals:
- state wasn't really an inherent machinery of the ecs system, and so
keeping it within bevy_ecs felt forced
- by mixing it in with bevy_ecs, the maintainability of our more robust
state system was significantly compromised
moving state into a new crate makes it easier to encapsulate as it's own
feature, and easier to read and understand since it's no longer a
single, massive file.
## Solution
move the state-related elements from bevy_ecs to a new crate
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how? all the automated tests
migrated and passed, ran the pre-existing examples without changes to
validate.
---
## Migration Guide
Since bevy_state is now gated behind the `bevy_state` feature, projects
that use state but don't use the `default-features` will need to add
that feature flag.
Since it is no longer part of bevy_ecs, projects that use bevy_ecs
directly will need to manually pull in `bevy_state`, trigger the
StateTransition schedule, and handle any of the elements that bevy_app
currently sets up.

Update to wgpu 0.19 and raw-window-handle 0.6 (#11280)
# Objective
Keep core dependencies up to date.
## Solution
Update the dependencies.
wgpu 0.19 only supports raw-window-handle (rwh) 0.6, so bumping that was
included in this.
The rwh 0.6 version bump is just the simplest way of doing it. There
might be a way we can take advantage of wgpu's new safe surface creation
api, but I'm not familiar enough with bevy's window management to
untangle it and my attempt ended up being a mess of lifetimes and rustc
complaining about missing trait impls (that were implemented). Thanks to
@MiniaczQ for the (much simpler) rwh 0.6 version bump code.

~~This might be blocked on cpal and oboe updating their ndk versions to

## Changelog
- `wgpu` has been updated to 0.19! The long awaited arcanization has
been merged (for more info, see
https://gfx-rs.github.io/2023/11/24/arcanization.html), and Vulkan
should now be working again on Intel GPUs.
- Targeting WebGPU now requires that you add the new `webgpu` feature
(setting the `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable to
`--cfg=web_sys_unstable_apis` is still required). This feature currently
overrides the `webgl2` feature if you have both enabled (the `webgl2`
feature is enabled by default), so it is not recommended to add it as a
default feature to libraries without putting it behind a flag that
allows library users to opt out of it! In the future we plan on
supporting wasm binaries that can target both webgl2 and webgpu now that
wgpu added support for doing so (see
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11505).
- `raw-window-handle` has been updated to version 0.6.
## Migration Guide
- `bevy_render::instance_index::get_instance_index()` has been removed
as the webgl2 workaround is no longer required as it was fixed upstream
in wgpu. The `BASE_INSTANCE_WORKAROUND` shaderdef has also been removed.
- WebGPU now requires the new `webgpu` feature to be enabled. The
`webgpu` feature currently overrides the `webgl2` feature so you no
longer need to disable all default features and re-add them all when
targeting `webgpu`, but binaries built with both the `webgpu` and
`webgl2` features will only target the webgpu backend, and will only
work on browsers that support WebGPU.
- Places where you conditionally compiled things for webgl2 need to be
updated because of this change, eg:
- `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl"), not(target_arch = "wasm32")))]`
becomes `#[cfg(any(not(feature = "webgl") ,not(target_arch = "wasm32"),
feature = "webgpu"))]`
- `#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))]` becomes
`#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))]`
- `if cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32"))` becomes `if
cfg!(all(feature = "webgl", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature =
"webgpu")))`
- `create_texture_with_data` now also takes a `TextureDataOrder`. You
can probably just set this to `TextureDataOrder::default()`
- `TextureFormat`'s `block_size` has been renamed to `block_copy_size`
- See the `wgpu` changelog for anything I might've missed:

Multiple Asset Sources (#9885)
This adds support for **Multiple Asset Sources**. You can now register a
named `AssetSource`, which you can load assets from like you normally
would:
```rust
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("custom_source://path/to/shader.wgsl");
```
Notice that `AssetPath` now supports `some_source://` syntax. This can
now be accessed through the `asset_path.source()` accessor.
Asset source names _are not required_. If one is not specified, the
default asset source will be used:
```rust
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("path/to/shader.wgsl");
```
The behavior of the default asset source has not changed. Ex: the
`assets` folder is still the default.
As referenced in #9714
## Why?
**Multiple Asset Sources** enables a number of often-asked-for
scenarios:
* **Loading some assets from other locations on disk**: you could create
a `config` asset source that reads from the OS-default config folder
(not implemented in this PR)
* **Loading some assets from a remote server**: you could register a new
`remote` asset source that reads some assets from a remote http server
(not implemented in this PR)
* **Improved "Binary Embedded" Assets**: we can use this system for
"embedded-in-binary assets", which allows us to replace the old
`load_internal_asset!` approach, which couldn't support asset
processing, didn't support hot-reloading _well_, and didn't make
embedded assets accessible to the `AssetServer` (implemented in this pr)
## Adding New Asset Sources
An `AssetSource` is "just" a collection of `AssetReader`, `AssetWriter`,
and `AssetWatcher` entries. You can configure new asset sources like
this:
```rust
app.register_asset_source(
"other",
AssetSource::build()
.with_reader(|| Box::new(FileAssetReader::new("other")))
)
)
```
Note that `AssetSource` construction _must_ be repeatable, which is why
a closure is accepted.
`AssetSourceBuilder` supports `with_reader`, `with_writer`,
`with_watcher`, `with_processed_reader`, `with_processed_writer`, and
`with_processed_watcher`.
Note that the "asset source" system replaces the old "asset providers"
system.
## Processing Multiple Sources
The `AssetProcessor` now supports multiple asset sources! Processed
assets can refer to assets in other sources and everything "just works".
Each `AssetSource` defines an unprocessed and processed `AssetReader` /
`AssetWriter`.
Currently this is all or nothing for a given `AssetSource`. A given
source is either processed or it is not. Later we might want to add
support for "lazy asset processing", where an `AssetSource` (such as a
remote server) can be configured to only process assets that are
directly referenced by local assets (in order to save local disk space
and avoid doing extra work).
## A new `AssetSource`: `embedded`
One of the big features motivating **Multiple Asset Sources** was
improving our "embedded-in-binary" asset loading. To prove out the
**Multiple Asset Sources** implementation, I chose to build a new
`embedded` `AssetSource`, which replaces the old `load_interal_asset!`
system.
The old `load_internal_asset!` approach had a number of issues:
* The `AssetServer` was not aware of (or capable of loading) internal
assets.
* Because internal assets weren't visible to the `AssetServer`, they
could not be processed (or used by assets that are processed). This
would prevent things "preprocessing shaders that depend on built in Bevy
shaders", which is something we desperately need to start doing.
* Each "internal asset" needed a UUID to be defined in-code to reference
it. This was very manual and toilsome.
The new `embedded` `AssetSource` enables the following pattern:
```rust
// Called in `crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/mesh.rs`
embedded_asset!(app, "mesh.wgsl");
// later in the app
let shader: Handle<Shader> = asset_server.load("embedded://bevy_pbr/render/mesh.wgsl");
```
Notice that this always treats the crate name as the "root path", and it
trims out the `src` path for brevity. This is generally predictable, but
if you need to debug you can use the new `embedded_path!` macro to get a
`PathBuf` that matches the one used by `embedded_asset`.
You can also reference embedded assets in arbitrary assets, such as WGSL
shaders:
```rust
#import "embedded://bevy_pbr/render/mesh.wgsl"
```
This also makes `embedded` assets go through the "normal" asset
lifecycle. They are only loaded when they are actually used!
We are also discussing implicitly converting asset paths to/from shader
modules, so in the future (not in this PR) you might be able to load it
like this:
```rust
#import bevy_pbr::render::mesh::Vertex
```
Compare that to the old system!
```rust
pub const MESH_SHADER_HANDLE: Handle<Shader> = Handle::weak_from_u128(3252377289100772450);
load_internal_asset!(app, MESH_SHADER_HANDLE, "mesh.wgsl", Shader::from_wgsl);
// The mesh asset is the _only_ accessible via MESH_SHADER_HANDLE and _cannot_ be loaded via the AssetServer.
```
## Hot Reloading `embedded`
You can enable `embedded` hot reloading by enabling the
`embedded_watcher` cargo feature:
```
cargo run --features=embedded_watcher
```
## Improved Hot Reloading Workflow
First: the `filesystem_watcher` cargo feature has been renamed to
`file_watcher` for brevity (and to match the `FileAssetReader` naming
convention).
More importantly, hot asset reloading is no longer configured in-code by
default. If you enable any asset watcher feature (such as `file_watcher`
or `rust_source_watcher`), asset watching will be automatically enabled.
This removes the need to _also_ enable hot reloading in your app code.
That means you can replace this:
```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::default().watch_for_changes()))
```
with this:
```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
```
If you want to hot reload assets in your app during development, just
run your app like this:
```
cargo run --features=file_watcher
```
This means you can use the same code for development and deployment! To
deploy an app, just don't include the watcher feature
```
cargo build --release
```
My intent is to move to this approach for pretty much all dev workflows.
In a future PR I would like to replace `AssetMode::ProcessedDev` with a
`runtime-processor` cargo feature. We could then group all common "dev"
cargo features under a single `dev` feature:
```sh
# this would enable file_watcher, embedded_watcher, runtime-processor, and more
cargo run --features=dev
```
## AssetMode
`AssetPlugin::Unprocessed`, `AssetPlugin::Processed`, and
`AssetPlugin::ProcessedDev` have been replaced with an `AssetMode` field
on `AssetPlugin`.
```rust
// before
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::Processed { /* fields here */ })
// after
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin { mode: AssetMode::Processed, ..default() })
```
This aligns `AssetPlugin` with our other struct-like plugins. The old
"source" and "destination" `AssetProvider` fields in the enum variants
have been replaced by the "asset source" system. You no longer need to
configure the AssetPlugin to "point" to custom asset providers.
## AssetServerMode
To improve the implementation of **Multiple Asset Sources**,
`AssetServer` was made aware of whether or not it is using "processed"
or "unprocessed" assets. You can check that like this:
```rust
if asset_server.mode() == AssetServerMode::Processed {
/* do something */
}
```
Note that this refactor should also prepare the way for building "one to
many processed output files", as it makes the server aware of whether it
is loading from processed or unprocessed sources. Meaning we can store
and read processed and unprocessed assets differently!
## AssetPath can now refer to folders
The "file only" restriction has been removed from `AssetPath`. The
`AssetServer::load_folder` API now accepts an `AssetPath` instead of a
`Path`, meaning you can load folders from other asset sources!
## Improved AssetPath Parsing
AssetPath parsing was reworked to support sources, improve error
messages, and to enable parsing with a single pass over the string.
`AssetPath::new` was replaced by `AssetPath::parse` and
`AssetPath::try_parse`.
## AssetWatcher broken out from AssetReader
`AssetReader` is no longer responsible for constructing `AssetWatcher`.
This has been moved to `AssetSourceBuilder`.
## Duplicate Event Debouncing
Asset V2 already debounced duplicate filesystem events, but this was
_input_ events. Multiple input event types can produce the same _output_
`AssetSourceEvent`. Now that we have `embedded_watcher`, which does
expensive file io on events, it made sense to debounce output events
too, so I added that! This will also benefit the AssetProcessor by
preventing integrity checks for duplicate events (and helps keep the
noise down in trace logs).
## Next Steps
* **Port Built-in Shaders**: Currently the primary (and essentially
only) user of `load_interal_asset` in Bevy's source code is "built-in
shaders". I chose not to do that in this PR for a few reasons:
1. We need to add the ability to pass shader defs in to shaders via meta
files. Some shaders (such as MESH_VIEW_TYPES) need to pass shader def
values in that are defined in code.
2. We need to revisit the current shader module naming system. I think
we _probably_ want to imply modules from source structure (at least by
default). Ideally in a way that can losslessly convert asset paths
to/from shader modules (to enable the asset system to resolve modules
using the asset server).
3. I want to keep this change set minimal / get this merged first.
* **Deprecate `load_internal_asset`**: we can't do that until we do (1)
and (2)
* **Relative Asset Paths**: This PR significantly increases the need for
relative asset paths (which was already pretty high). Currently when
loading dependencies, it is assumed to be an absolute path, which means
if in an `AssetLoader` you call `context.load("some/path/image.png")` it
will assume that is the "default" asset source, _even if the current
asset is in a different asset source_. This will cause breakage for
AssetLoaders that are not designed to add the current source to whatever
paths are being used. AssetLoaders should generally not need to be aware
of the name of their current asset source, or need to think about the
"current asset source" generally. We should build apis that support
relative asset paths and then encourage using relative paths as much as
possible (both via api design and docs). Relative paths are also
important because they will allow developers to move folders around
(even across providers) without reprocessing, provided there is no path
breakage.

|exr|EXR image format support|
Feature-gate all image formats (#15586)
# Objective
Bevy supports feature gates for each format it supports, but several
formats that it loads via the `image` crate do not have feature gates.
Additionally, the QOI format is supported by the `image` crate and
wasn't available at all. This fixes that.
## Solution
The following feature gates are added:
* `avif`
* `ff` (Farbfeld)
* `gif`
* `ico`
* `qoi`
* `tiff`
None of these formats are enabled by default, despite the fact that all
these formats appeared to be enabled by default before. Since
`default-features` was disabled for the `image` crate, it's likely that
using any of these formats would have errored by default before this
change, although this probably needs additional testing.
## Testing
The changes seemed minimal enough that a compile test would be
sufficient.
## Migration guide
Image formats that previously weren't feature-gated are now
feature-gated, meaning they will have to be enabled if you use them:
* `avif`
* `ff` (Farbfeld)
* `gif`
* `ico`
* `tiff`
Additionally, the `qoi` feature has been added to support loading QOI
format images.
Previously, these formats appeared in the enum by default, but weren't
actually enabled via the `image` crate, potentially resulting in weird
bugs. Now, you should be able to add these features to your projects to
support them properly.

Mark ghost nodes as experimental and partially feature flag them (#15961)
# Objective
As discussed in #15341, ghost nodes are a contentious and experimental
feature. In the interest of enabling ecosystem experimentation, we've
decided to keep them in Bevy 0.15.
That said, we don't use them internally, and don't expect third-party
crates to support them. If the experimentation returns a negative result
(they aren't very useful, an alternative design is preferred etc) they
will be removed.
We should clearly communicate this status to users, and make sure that
users don't use ghost nodes in their projects without a very clear
understanding of what they're getting themselves into.
## Solution
To make life easy for users (and Bevy), `GhostNode` and all associated
helpers remain public and are always available.
However, actually constructing these requires enabling a feature flag
that's clearly marked as experimental. To do so, I've added a
meaningless private field.
When the feature flag is enabled, our constructs (`new` and `default`)
can be used. I've added a `new` constructor, which should be preferred
over `Default::default` as that can be readily deprecated, allowing us
to prompt users to swap over to the much nicer `GhostNode` syntax once
this is a unit struct again.
Full credit: this was mostly @cart's design: I'm just implementing it!
## Testing
I've run the ghost_nodes example and it fails to compile without the
feature flag. With the feature flag, it works fine :)

Feature-gate all image formats (#15586)
# Objective
Bevy supports feature gates for each format it supports, but several
formats that it loads via the `image` crate do not have feature gates.
Additionally, the QOI format is supported by the `image` crate and
wasn't available at all. This fixes that.
## Solution
The following feature gates are added:
* `avif`
* `ff` (Farbfeld)
* `gif`
* `ico`
* `qoi`
* `tiff`
None of these formats are enabled by default, despite the fact that all
these formats appeared to be enabled by default before. Since
`default-features` was disabled for the `image` crate, it's likely that
using any of these formats would have errored by default before this
change, although this probably needs additional testing.
## Testing
The changes seemed minimal enough that a compile test would be
sufficient.
## Migration guide
Image formats that previously weren't feature-gated are now
feature-gated, meaning they will have to be enabled if you use them:
* `avif`
* `ff` (Farbfeld)
* `gif`
* `ico`
* `tiff`
Additionally, the `qoi` feature has been added to support loading QOI
format images.
Previously, these formats appeared in the enum by default, but weren't
actually enabled via the `image` crate, potentially resulting in weird
bugs. Now, you should be able to add these features to your projects to
support them properly.

Implement clearcoat per the Filament and the `KHR_materials_clearcoat` specifications. (#13031)
Clearcoat is a separate material layer that represents a thin
translucent layer of a material. Examples include (from the [Filament
spec]) car paint, soda cans, and lacquered wood. This commit implements
support for clearcoat following the Filament and Khronos specifications,
marking the beginnings of support for multiple PBR layers in Bevy.
The [`KHR_materials_clearcoat`] specification describes the clearcoat
support in glTF. In Blender, applying a clearcoat to the Principled BSDF
node causes the clearcoat settings to be exported via this extension. As
of this commit, Bevy parses and reads the extension data when present in
glTF. Note that the `gltf` crate has no support for
`KHR_materials_clearcoat`; this patch therefore implements the JSON
semantics manually.
Clearcoat is integrated with `StandardMaterial`, but the code is behind
a series of `#ifdef`s that only activate when clearcoat is present.
Additionally, the `pbr_feature_layer_material_textures` Cargo feature
must be active in order to enable support for clearcoat factor maps,
clearcoat roughness maps, and clearcoat normal maps. This approach
mirrors the same pattern used by the existing transmission feature and
exists to avoid running out of texture bindings on platforms like WebGL
and WebGPU. Note that constant clearcoat factors and roughness values
*are* supported in the browser; only the relatively-less-common maps are
disabled on those platforms.
This patch refactors the lighting code in `StandardMaterial`
significantly in order to better support multiple layers in a natural
way. That code was due for a refactor in any case, so this is a nice
improvement.
A new demo, `clearcoat`, has been added. It's based on [the
corresponding three.js demo], but all the assets (aside from the skybox
and environment map) are my original work.

## Changelog
### Added
* `StandardMaterial` now supports a clearcoat layer, which represents a
thin translucent layer over an underlying material.
* The glTF loader now supports the `KHR_materials_clearcoat` extension,
representing materials with clearcoat layers.
## Migration Guide
* The lighting functions in the `pbr_lighting` WGSL module now have
clearcoat parameters, if `STANDARD_MATERIAL_CLEARCOAT` is defined.
* The `R` reflection vector parameter has been removed from some
lighting functions, as it was unused.

`StandardMaterial` Light Transmission (#8015)
# Objective
<img width="1920" alt="Screenshot 2023-04-26 at 01 07 34"
src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/418473/234467578-0f34187b-5863-4ea1-88e9-7a6bb8ce8da3.png">
This PR adds both diffuse and specular light transmission capabilities
to the `StandardMaterial`, with support for screen space refractions.
This enables realistically representing a wide range of real-world
materials, such as:
- Glass; (Including frosted glass)
- Transparent and translucent plastics;
- Various liquids and gels;
- Gemstones;
- Marble;
- Wax;
- Paper;
- Leaves;
- Porcelain.
Unlike existing support for transparency, light transmission does not
rely on fixed function alpha blending, and therefore works with both
`AlphaMode::Opaque` and `AlphaMode::Mask` materials.
## Solution
- Introduces a number of transmission related fields in the
`StandardMaterial`;
- For specular transmission:
- Adds logic to take a view main texture snapshot after the opaque
phase; (in order to perform screen space refractions)
- Introduces a new `Transmissive3d` phase to the renderer, to which all
meshes with `transmission > 0.0` materials are sent.
- Calculates a light exit point (of the approximate mesh volume) using
`ior` and `thickness` properties
- Samples the snapshot texture with an adaptive number of taps across a
`roughness`-controlled radius enabling “blurry” refractions
- For diffuse transmission:
- Approximates transmitted diffuse light by using a second, flipped +
displaced, diffuse-only Lambertian lobe for each light source.
## To Do
- [x] Figure out where `fresnel_mix()` is taking place, if at all, and
where `dielectric_specular` is being calculated, if at all, and update
them to use the `ior` value (Not a blocker, just a nice-to-have for more
correct BSDF)
- To the _best of my knowledge, this is now taking place, after
964340cdd. The fresnel mix is actually "split" into two parts in our
implementation, one `(1 - fresnel(...))` in the transmission, and
`fresnel()` in the light implementations. A surface with more
reflectance now will produce slightly dimmer transmission towards the
grazing angle, as more of the light gets reflected.
- [x] Add `transmission_texture`
- [x] Add `diffuse_transmission_texture`
- [x] Add `thickness_texture`
- [x] Add `attenuation_distance` and `attenuation_color`
- [x] Connect values to glTF loader
- [x] `transmission` and `transmission_texture`
- [x] `thickness` and `thickness_texture`
- [x] `ior`
- [ ] `diffuse_transmission` and `diffuse_transmission_texture` (needs
upstream support in `gltf` crate, not a blocker)
- [x] Add support for multiple screen space refraction “steps”
- [x] Conditionally create no transmission snapshot texture at all if
`steps == 0`
- [x] Conditionally enable/disable screen space refraction transmission
snapshots
- [x] Read from depth pre-pass to prevent refracting pixels in front of
the light exit point
- [x] Use `interleaved_gradient_noise()` function for sampling blur in a
way that benefits from TAA
- [x] Drill down a TAA `#define`, tweak some aspects of the effect
conditionally based on it
- [x] Remove const array that's crashing under HLSL (unless a new `naga`
release with https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2496 comes out before
we merge this)
- [ ] Look into alternatives to the `switch` hack for dynamically
indexing the const array (might not be needed, compilers seem to be
decent at expanding it)
- [ ] Add pipeline keys for gating transmission (do we really want/need
this?)
- [x] Tweak some material field/function names?
## A Note on Texture Packing
_This was originally added as a comment to the
`specular_transmission_texture`, `thickness_texture` and
`diffuse_transmission_texture` documentation, I removed it since it was
more confusing than helpful, and will likely be made redundant/will need
to be updated once we have a better infrastructure for preprocessing
assets_
Due to how channels are mapped, you can more efficiently use a single
shared texture image
for configuring the following:
- R - `specular_transmission_texture`
- G - `thickness_texture`
- B - _unused_
- A - `diffuse_transmission_texture`
The `KHR_materials_diffuse_transmission` glTF extension also defines a
`diffuseTransmissionColorTexture`,
that _we don't currently support_. One might choose to pack the
intensity and color textures together,
using RGB for the color and A for the intensity, in which case this
packing advice doesn't really apply.
---
## Changelog
- Added a new `Transmissive3d` render phase for rendering specular
transmissive materials with screen space refractions
- Added rendering support for transmitted environment map light on the
`StandardMaterial` as a fallback for screen space refractions
- Added `diffuse_transmission`, `specular_transmission`, `thickness`,
`ior`, `attenuation_distance` and `attenuation_color` to the
`StandardMaterial`
- Added `diffuse_transmission_texture`, `specular_transmission_texture`,
`thickness_texture` to the `StandardMaterial`, gated behind a new
`pbr_transmission_textures` cargo feature (off by default, for maximum
hardware compatibility)
- Added `Camera3d::screen_space_specular_transmission_steps` for
controlling the number of “layers of transparency” rendered for
transmissive objects
- Added a `TransmittedShadowReceiver` component for enabling shadows in
(diffusely) transmitted light. (disabled by default, as it requires
carefully setting up the `thickness` to avoid self-shadow artifacts)
- Added support for the `KHR_materials_transmission`,
`KHR_materials_ior` and `KHR_materials_volume` glTF extensions
- Renamed items related to temporal jitter for greater consistency
## Migration Guide
- `SsaoPipelineKey::temporal_noise` has been renamed to
`SsaoPipelineKey::temporal_jitter`
- The `TAA` shader def (controlled by the presence of the
`TemporalAntiAliasSettings` component in the camera) has been replaced
with the `TEMPORAL_JITTER` shader def (controlled by the presence of the
`TemporalJitter` component in the camera)
- `MeshPipelineKey::TAA` has been replaced by
`MeshPipelineKey::TEMPORAL_JITTER`
- The `TEMPORAL_NOISE` shader def has been consolidated with
`TEMPORAL_JITTER`

Added `WebP` image format support (#8220)
# Objective
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that offers a
significant reduction in file size compared to other image formats such
as PNG and JPEG, while still maintaining good image quality. This makes
it particularly useful for games with large numbers of images, such as
those with high-quality textures or detailed sprites, where file size
and loading times can have a significant impact on performance.
By adding support for WebP images in Bevy, game developers using this
engine can now take advantage of this modern image format and reduce the
memory usage and loading times of their games. This improvement can
ultimately result in a better gaming experience for players.
In summary, the objective of adding WebP image format support in Bevy is
to enable game developers to use a modern image format that provides
better compression rates and smaller file sizes, resulting in faster
loading times and reduced memory usage for their games.
## Solution
To add support for WebP images in Bevy, this pull request leverages the
existing `image` crate support for WebP. This implementation is easily
integrated into the existing Bevy asset-loading system. To maintain
compatibility with existing Bevy projects, WebP image support is
disabled by default, and developers can enable it by adding a feature
flag to their project's `Cargo.toml` file. With this feature, Bevy
becomes even more versatile for game developers and provides a valuable
addition to the game engine.

## Changelog
- Added support for WebP image format in Bevy game engine
