Relicense Bevy under the dual MIT or Apache-2.0 license (#2509) This relicenses Bevy under the dual MIT or Apache-2.0 license. For rationale, see #2373. * Changes the LICENSE file to describe the dual license. Moved the MIT license to docs/LICENSE-MIT. Added the Apache-2.0 license to docs/LICENSE-APACHE. I opted for this approach over dumping both license files at the root (the more common approach) for a number of reasons: * Github links to the "first" license file (LICENSE-APACHE) in its license links (you can see this in the wgpu and rust-analyzer repos). People clicking these links might erroneously think that the apache license is the only option. Rust and Amethyst both use COPYRIGHT or COPYING files to solve this problem, but this creates more file noise (if you do everything at the root) and the naming feels way less intuitive. * People have a reflex to look for a LICENSE file. By providing a single license file at the root, we make it easy for them to understand our licensing approach. * I like keeping the root clean and noise free * There is precedent for putting the apache and mit license text in sub folders (amethyst) * Removed the `Copyright (c) 2020 Carter Anderson` copyright notice from the MIT license. I don't care about this attribution, it might make license compliance more difficult in some cases, and it didn't properly attribute other contributors. We shoudn't replace it with something like "Copyright (c) 2021 Bevy Contributors" because "Bevy Contributors" is not a legal entity. Instead, we just won't include the copyright line (which has precedent ... Rust also uses this approach). * Updates crates to use the new "MIT OR Apache-2.0" license value * Removes the old legion-transform license file from bevy_transform. bevy_transform has been its own, fully custom implementation for a long time and that license no longer applies. * Added a License section to the main readme * Updated our Bevy Plugin licensing guidelines. As a follow-up we should update the website to properly describe the new license. Closes #2373

Move compile fail tests (#13196) # Objective - Follow-up of #13184 :) - We use `ui_test` to test compiler errors for our custom macros. - There are four crates related to compile fail tests - `bevy_ecs_compile_fail_tests`, `bevy_macros_compile_fail_tests`, and `bevy_reflect_compile_fail_tests`, which actually test the macros. - [`bevy_compile_test_utils`](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/64c1c65783938facc59d9b36cbaa6deba435d84e/crates/bevy_compile_test_utils), which provides helpers and common patterns for these tests. - All of these crates reside within the `crates` directory. - This can be confusing, especially for newcomers. All of the other folders in `crates` are actual published libraries, except for these 4. ## Solution - Move all compile fail tests to a `compile_fail` folder under their corresponding crate. - E.g. `crates/bevy_ecs_compile_fail_tests` would be moved to `crates/bevy_ecs/compile_fail`. - Move `bevy_compile_test_utils` to `tools/compile_fail_utils`. There are a few benefits to this approach: 1. An internal testing detail is less intrusive (and confusing) for those who just want to browse the public Bevy interface. 2. Follows a pre-existing approach of organizing related crates inside a larger crate's folder. - See `bevy_gizmos/macros` for an example. 4. Makes consistent the terms `compile_test`, `compile_fail`, and `compile_fail_test` in code. It's all just `compile_fail` now, because we are specifically testing the error messages on compiler failures. - To be clear it can still be referred to by these terms in comments and speech, just the names of the crates and the CI command are now consistent. ## Testing Run the compile fail CI command: ```shell cargo run -p ci -- compile-fail ``` If it still passes, then my refactor was successful.

Forbid unsafe in most crates in the engine (#12684) # Objective Resolves #3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint. ## Solution Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others. * bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve performant results * bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs. * bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu * bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle * bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable. * bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing. * bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation * bevy_gizmos - For the SystemParam impls it has. * bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100% sure yet. * bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending safe rewrite. * bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading nature. Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using them: * bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a normal for loop and match instead of an iterator. * bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with bytemuck's derive macros.

Use `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` to improve docs readability (#14703) # Objective - Fixes #14697 ## Solution This PR modifies the existing `all_tuples!` macro to optionally accept a `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` attribute in its input. If the attribute is present, each invocation of the impl macro gets the correct attributes (i.e. the first impl receives `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` while the other impls are hidden using `#[doc(hidden)]`. Impls for the empty tuple (unit type) are left untouched (that's what the [standard library](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html#impl-PartialEq-for-()) and [serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-()) do). To work around https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8811 and to get impls on re-exports to correctly show up as variadic, `--cfg docsrs_dep` is passed when building the docs for the toplevel `bevy` crate. `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` only works on tuples and fn pointers, so impls for structs like `AnyOf<(T1, T2, ..., Tn)>` are unchanged. ## Testing I built the docs locally using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' RUSTFLAGS='--cfg docsrs_dep' cargo +nightly doc --no-deps --workspace` and checked the documentation page of a trait both in its original crate and the re-exported version in `bevy`. The description should correctly mention for how many tuple items the trait is implemented. I added `rustc-args` for docs.rs to the `bevy` crate, I hope there aren't any other notable crates that re-export `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` traits. --- ## Showcase `bevy_ecs::query::QueryData`: <img width="1015" alt="Screenshot 2024-08-12 at 16 41 28" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d40136ed-6731-475f-91a0-9df255cd24e3"> `bevy::ecs::query::QueryData` (re-export): <img width="1005" alt="Screenshot 2024-08-12 at 16 42 57" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/71d44cf0-0ab0-48b0-9a51-5ce332594e12"> ## Original Description <details> Resolves #14697 Submitting as a draft for now, very WIP. Unfortunately, the docs don't show the variadics nicely when looking at reexported items. For example: `bevy_ecs::bundle::Bundle` correctly shows the variadic impl: ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90bf8af1-1d1f-4714-9143-cdd3d0199998) while `bevy::ecs::bundle::Bundle` (the reexport) shows all the impls (not good): ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/439c428e-f712-465b-bec2-481f7bf5870b) Built using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' cargo +nightly doc --workspace --no-deps` (`--no-deps` because of wgpu-core). Maybe I missed something or this is a limitation in the *totally not private* `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` thingy. In any case I desperately need some sleep now :)) </details>

Revamp Bloom (#6677) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/47158642/220197588-25e11022-02e4-45f3-b2e5-392c4ce7a025.png) Huge credit to @StarLederer, who did almost all of the work on this. We're just reusing this PR to keep everything in one place. # Objective 1. Make bloom more physically based. 1. Improve artistic control. 1. Allow to use bloom as screen blur. 1. Fix #6634. 1. Address #6655 (although the author makes incorrect conclusions). ## Solution 1. Set the default threshold to 0. 2. Lerp between bloom textures when `composite_mode: BloomCompositeMode::EnergyConserving`. 1. Use [a parametric function](https://starlederer.github.io/bloom) to control blend levels for each bloom texture. In the future this can be controlled per-pixel for things like lens dirt. 3. Implement BloomCompositeMode::Additive` for situations where the old school look is desired. ## Changelog * Bloom now looks different. * Added `BloomSettings:lf_boost`, `BloomSettings:lf_boost_curvature`, `BloomSettings::high_pass_frequency` and `BloomSettings::composite_mode`. * `BloomSettings::scale` removed. * `BloomSettings::knee` renamed to `BloomPrefilterSettings::softness`. * `BloomSettings::threshold` renamed to `BloomPrefilterSettings::threshold`. * The bloom example has been renamed to bloom_3d and improved. A bloom_2d example was added. ## Migration Guide * Refactor mentions of `BloomSettings::knee` and `BloomSettings::threshold` as `BloomSettings::prefilter_settings` where knee is now `softness`. * If defined without `..default()` add `..default()` to definitions of `BloomSettings` instances or manually define missing fields. * Adapt to Bloom looking visually different (if needed).

Webgpu support (#8336) # Objective - Support WebGPU - alternative to #5027 that doesn't need any async / await - fixes #8315 - Surprise fix #7318 ## Solution ### For async renderer initialisation - Update the plugin lifecycle: - app builds the plugin - calls `plugin.build` - registers the plugin - app starts the event loop - event loop waits for `ready` of all registered plugins in the same order - returns `true` by default - then call all `finish` then all `cleanup` in the same order as registered - then execute the schedule In the case of the renderer, to avoid anything async: - building the renderer plugin creates a detached task that will send back the initialised renderer through a mutex in a resource - `ready` will wait for the renderer to be present in the resource - `finish` will take that renderer and place it in the expected resources by other plugins - other plugins (that expect the renderer to be available) `finish` are called and they are able to set up their pipelines - `cleanup` is called, only custom one is still for pipeline rendering ### For WebGPU support - update the `build-wasm-example` script to support passing `--api webgpu` that will build the example with WebGPU support - feature for webgl2 was always enabled when building for wasm. it's now in the default feature list and enabled on all platforms, so check for this feature must also check that the target_arch is `wasm32` --- ## Migration Guide - `Plugin::setup` has been renamed `Plugin::cleanup` - `Plugin::finish` has been added, and plugins adding pipelines should do it in this function instead of `Plugin::build` ```rust // Before impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>() .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } } // After impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } fn finish(&self, app: &mut App) { let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>(); } } ```

# Force dynamic linking, which improves iterative compile times
Remove the bevy_dylib feature (#9516) # Objective There is a `bevy_dylib` feature that cargo automatically creates due to the bevy_dylib crate being optional. This can be a footgun as I think we want users to always use the `dynamic_linking` feature for this. For example `bevy_dylib` was used in [ridiculous_bevy_hot_reloading:lib.rs#L93](https://github.com/DGriffin91/ridiculous_bevy_hot_reloading/blob/400099bcc10f4ef974af491f55e8acefe273e4bc/src/lib.rs#L93) and since I was using dynamic_linking it ended up hot reloading with a slightly different configured library causing hot reloading to fail. ## Solution Use "dep:" syntax in the `dynamic_linking` feature to prevent bevy_dylib automatically becoming a cargo feature. This is documented here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#optional-dependencies It will now raise this error when you try to compile with the bevy_dylib feature: > error: Package `bevy v0.12.0-dev (C:\Users\Paul\Projects\Rust\bevy)` does not have feature `bevy_dylib`. It has an optional dependency with that name, but that dependency uses the "dep:" syntax in the features table, so it does not have an implicit feature with that name. --- ## Changelog `bevy_dylib` is no longer a feature ## Migration Guide If you were using Bevy's `bevy_dylib` feature, use Bevy's `dynamic_linking` feature instead. ```shell # 0.11 cargo run --features bevy/bevy_dylib # 0.12 cargo run --features bevy/dynamic_linking ``` ```toml [dependencies] # 0.11 bevy = { version = "0.11", features = ["bevy_dylib"] } # 0.12 bevy = { version = "0.12", features = ["dynamic_linking"] } ```

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 ## Migration Guide To enable WebP image support in your Bevy project, add the following line to your project's Cargo.toml file: ```toml bevy = { version = "*", features = ["webp"]} ```

# Enable detailed trace event logging. These trace events are expensive even when off, thus they require compile time opt-in
Introduce detailed_trace macro, use in TrackedRenderPass (#7639) Profiles show that in extremely hot loops, like the draw loops in the renderer, invoking the trace! macro has noticeable overhead, even if the trace log level is not enabled. Solve this by introduce a 'wrapper' detailed_trace macro around trace, that wraps the trace! log statement in a trivially false if statement unless a cargo feature is enabled # Objective - Eliminate significant overhead observed with trace-level logging in render hot loops, even when trace log level is not enabled. - This is an alternative solution to the one proposed in #7223 ## Solution - Introduce a wrapper around the `trace!` macro called `detailed_trace!`. This macro wraps the `trace!` macro with an if statement that is conditional on a new cargo feature, `detailed_trace`. When the feature is not enabled (the default), then the if statement is trivially false and should be optimized away at compile time. - Convert the observed hot occurrences of trace logging in `TrackedRenderPass` with this new macro. Testing the results of ``` cargo run --profile stress-test --features bevy/trace_tracy --example many_cubes -- spheres ``` ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1222141/218298552-38551717-b062-4c64-afdc-a60267ac984d.png) shows significant improvement of the `main_opaque_pass_3d` of the renderer, a median time decrease from 6.0ms to 3.5ms. --- ## Changelog - For performance reasons, some detailed renderer trace logs now require the use of cargo feature `detailed_trace` in addition to setting the log level to `TRACE` in order to be shown. ## Migration Guide - Some detailed bevy trace events now require the use of the cargo feature `detailed_trace` in addition to enabling `TRACE` level logging to view. Should you wish to see these logs, please compile your code with the bevy feature `detailed_trace`. Currently, the only logs that are affected are the renderer logs pertaining to `TrackedRenderPass` functions

Log a warning when the `tonemapping_luts` feature is disabled but required for the selected tonemapper. (#10253) # Objective Make it obvious why stuff renders pink when rendering stuff with bevy with `default_features = false` and bevy's default tonemapper (TonyMcMapFace, it requires a LUT which requires the `tonemapping_luts`, `ktx2`, and `zstd` features). Not sure if this should be considered as fixing these issues, but in my previous PR (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9073, and old discussions on discord that I only somewhat remember) it seemed like we didn't want to make ktx2 and zstd required features for bevy_core_pipeline. Related https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9179 Related https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/9098 ## Solution This logs an error when a LUT based tonemapper is used without the `tonemapping_luts` feature enabled, and cleans up the default features a bit (`tonemapping_luts` now includes the `ktx2` and `zstd` features, since it panics without them). Another solution would be to fall back to a non-lut based tonemapper, but I don't like this solution as then it's not explicitly clear to users why eg. a library example renders differently than a normal bevy app (if the library forgot the `tonemapping_luts` feature). I did remove the `ktx2` and `zstd` features from the list of default features in Cargo.toml, as I don't believe anything else currently in bevy relies on them (or at least searching through every hit for `ktx2` and `zstd` didn't show anything except loading an environment map in some examples), and they still show up in the `cargo_features` doc as default features. --- ## Changelog - The `tonemapping_luts` feature now includes both the `ktx2` and `zstd` features to avoid a panic when the `tonemapping_luts` feature was enable without both the `ktx2` and `zstd` feature enabled.

`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`

# Enable support for transmission-related textures in the `StandardMaterial`, at the risk of blowing past the global, per-shader texture limit on older/lower-end GPUs
pbr_transmission_textures = ["bevy_internal/pbr_transmission_textures"]
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.

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).

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: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/blob/trunk/CHANGELOG.md --------- Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com>

Webgpu support (#8336) # Objective - Support WebGPU - alternative to #5027 that doesn't need any async / await - fixes #8315 - Surprise fix #7318 ## Solution ### For async renderer initialisation - Update the plugin lifecycle: - app builds the plugin - calls `plugin.build` - registers the plugin - app starts the event loop - event loop waits for `ready` of all registered plugins in the same order - returns `true` by default - then call all `finish` then all `cleanup` in the same order as registered - then execute the schedule In the case of the renderer, to avoid anything async: - building the renderer plugin creates a detached task that will send back the initialised renderer through a mutex in a resource - `ready` will wait for the renderer to be present in the resource - `finish` will take that renderer and place it in the expected resources by other plugins - other plugins (that expect the renderer to be available) `finish` are called and they are able to set up their pipelines - `cleanup` is called, only custom one is still for pipeline rendering ### For WebGPU support - update the `build-wasm-example` script to support passing `--api webgpu` that will build the example with WebGPU support - feature for webgl2 was always enabled when building for wasm. it's now in the default feature list and enabled on all platforms, so check for this feature must also check that the target_arch is `wasm32` --- ## Migration Guide - `Plugin::setup` has been renamed `Plugin::cleanup` - `Plugin::finish` has been added, and plugins adding pipelines should do it in this function instead of `Plugin::build` ```rust // Before impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>() .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } } // After impl Plugin for MyPlugin { fn build(&self, app: &mut App) { app.insert_resource::<MyResource> .add_systems(Update, my_system); let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<OtherRenderResource>(); } fn finish(&self, app: &mut App) { let render_app = match app.get_sub_app_mut(RenderApp) { Ok(render_app) => render_app, Err(_) => return, }; render_app .init_resource::<RenderResourceNeedingDevice>(); } } ```

After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

# Enables watching the filesystem for Bevy Asset hot-reloading
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.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

System Stepping implemented as Resource (#8453) # Objective Add interactive system debugging capabilities to bevy, providing step/break/continue style capabilities to running system schedules. * Original implementation: #8063 - `ignore_stepping()` everywhere was too much complexity * Schedule-config & Resource discussion: #8168 - Decided on selective adding of Schedules & Resource-based control ## Solution Created `Stepping` Resource. This resource can be used to enable stepping on a per-schedule basis. Systems within schedules can be individually configured to: * AlwaysRun: Ignore any stepping state and run every frame * NeverRun: Never run while stepping is enabled - this allows for disabling of systems while debugging * Break: If we're running the full frame, stop before this system is run Stepping provides two modes of execution that reflect traditional debuggers: * Step-based: Only execute one system at a time * Continue/Break: Run all systems, but stop before running a system marked as Break ### Demo https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/857742/233630981-99f3bbda-9ca6-4cc4-a00f-171c4946dc47.mov Breakout has been modified to use Stepping. The game runs normally for a couple of seconds, then stepping is enabled and the game appears to pause. A list of Schedules & Systems appears with a cursor at the first System in the list. The demo then steps forward full frames using the spacebar until the ball is about to hit a brick. Then we step system by system as the ball impacts a brick, showing the cursor moving through the individual systems. Finally the demo switches back to frame stepping as the ball changes course. ### Limitations Due to architectural constraints in bevy, there are some cases systems stepping will not function as a user would expect. #### Event-driven systems Stepping does not support systems that are driven by `Event`s as events are flushed after 1-2 frames. Although game systems are not running while stepping, ignored systems are still running every frame, so events will be flushed. This presents to the user as stepping the event-driven system never executes the system. It does execute, but the events have already been flushed. This can be resolved by changing event handling to use a buffer for events, and only dropping an event once all readers have read it. The work-around to allow these systems to properly execute during stepping is to have them ignore stepping: `app.add_systems(event_driven_system.ignore_stepping())`. This was done in the breakout example to ensure sound played even while stepping. #### Conditional Systems When a system is stepped, it is given an opportunity to run. If the conditions of the system say it should not run, it will not. Similar to Event-driven systems, if a system is conditional, and that condition is only true for a very small time window, then stepping the system may not execute the system. This includes depending on any sort of external clock. This exhibits to the user as the system not always running when it is stepped. A solution to this limitation is to ensure any conditions are consistent while stepping is enabled. For example, all systems that modify any state the condition uses should also enable stepping. #### State-transition Systems Stepping is configured on the per-`Schedule` level, requiring the user to have a `ScheduleLabel`. To support state-transition systems, bevy generates needed schedules dynamically. Currently it’s very difficult (if not impossible, I haven’t verified) for the user to get the labels for these schedules. Without ready access to the dynamically generated schedules, and a resolution for the `Event` lifetime, **stepping of the state-transition systems is not supported** --- ## Changelog - `Schedule::run()` updated to consult `Stepping` Resource to determine which Systems to run each frame - Added `Schedule.label` as a `BoxedSystemLabel`, along with supporting `Schedule::set_label()` and `Schedule::label()` methods - `Stepping` needed to know which `Schedule` was running, and prior to this PR, `Schedule` didn't track its own label - Would have preferred to add `Schedule::with_label()` and remove `Schedule::new()`, but this PR touches enough already - Added calls to `Schedule.set_label()` to `App` and `World` as needed - Added `Stepping` resource - Added `Stepping::begin_frame()` system to `MainSchedulePlugin` - Run before `Main::run_main()` - Notifies any `Stepping` Resource a new render frame is starting ## Migration Guide - Add a call to `Schedule::set_label()` for any custom `Schedule` - This is only required if the `Schedule` will be stepped --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

Track source location in change detection (#14034) # Objective - Make it possible to know *what* changed your component or resource. - Common need when debugging, when you want to know the last code location that mutated a value in the ECS. - This feature would be very useful for the editor alongside system stepping. ## Solution - Adds the caller location to column data. - Mutations now `track_caller` all the way up to the public API. - Commands that invoke these functions immediately call `Location::caller`, and pass this into the functions, instead of the functions themselves attempting to get the caller. This would not work for commands which are deferred, as the commands are executed by the scheduler, not the user's code. ## Testing - The `component_change_detection` example now shows where the component was mutated: ``` 2024-07-28T06:57:48.946022Z INFO component_change_detection: Entity { index: 1, generation: 1 }: New value: MyComponent(0.0) 2024-07-28T06:57:49.004371Z INFO component_change_detection: Entity { index: 1, generation: 1 }: New value: MyComponent(1.0) 2024-07-28T06:57:49.012738Z WARN component_change_detection: Change detected! -> value: Ref(MyComponent(1.0)) -> added: false -> changed: true -> changed by: examples/ecs/component_change_detection.rs:36:23 ``` - It's also possible to inspect change location from a debugger: <img width="608" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c90ecc7a-0462-457a-80ae-42e7f5d346b4"> --- ## Changelog - Added source locations to ECS change detection behind the `track_change_detection` flag. ## Migration Guide - Added `changed_by` field to many internal ECS functions used with change detection when the `track_change_detection` feature flag is enabled.

Added Method to Allow Pipelined Asset Loading (#10565) # Objective - Fixes #10518 ## Solution I've added a method to `LoadContext`, `load_direct_with_reader`, which mirrors the behaviour of `load_direct` with a single key difference: it is provided with the `Reader` by the caller, rather than getting it from the contained `AssetServer`. This allows for an `AssetLoader` to process its `Reader` stream, and then directly hand the results off to the `LoadContext` to handle further loading. The outer `AssetLoader` can control how the `Reader` is interpreted by providing a relevant `AssetPath`. For example, a Gzip decompression loader could process the asset `images/my_image.png.gz` by decompressing the bytes, then handing the decompressed result to the `LoadContext` with the new path `images/my_image.png.gz/my_image.png`. This intuitively reflects the nature of contained assets, whilst avoiding unintended behaviour, since the generated path cannot be a real file path (a file and folder of the same name cannot coexist in most file-systems). ```rust #[derive(Asset, TypePath)] pub struct GzAsset { pub uncompressed: ErasedLoadedAsset, } #[derive(Default)] pub struct GzAssetLoader; impl AssetLoader for GzAssetLoader { type Asset = GzAsset; type Settings = (); type Error = GzAssetLoaderError; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, _settings: &'a (), load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Self::Asset, Self::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let compressed_path = load_context.path(); let file_name = compressed_path .file_name() .ok_or(GzAssetLoaderError::IndeterminateFilePath)? .to_string_lossy(); let uncompressed_file_name = file_name .strip_suffix(".gz") .ok_or(GzAssetLoaderError::IndeterminateFilePath)?; let contained_path = compressed_path.join(uncompressed_file_name); let mut bytes_compressed = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes_compressed).await?; let mut decoder = GzDecoder::new(bytes_compressed.as_slice()); let mut bytes_uncompressed = Vec::new(); decoder.read_to_end(&mut bytes_uncompressed)?; // Now that we have decompressed the asset, let's pass it back to the // context to continue loading let mut reader = VecReader::new(bytes_uncompressed); let uncompressed = load_context .load_direct_with_reader(&mut reader, contained_path) .await?; Ok(GzAsset { uncompressed }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["gz"] } } ``` Because this example is so prudent, I've included an `asset_decompression` example which implements this exact behaviour: ```rust fn main() { App::new() .add_plugins(DefaultPlugins) .init_asset::<GzAsset>() .init_asset_loader::<GzAssetLoader>() .add_systems(Startup, setup) .add_systems(Update, decompress::<Image>) .run(); } fn setup(mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { commands.spawn(Camera2dBundle::default()); commands.spawn(( Compressed::<Image> { compressed: asset_server.load("data/compressed_image.png.gz"), ..default() }, Sprite::default(), TransformBundle::default(), VisibilityBundle::default(), )); } fn decompress<A: Asset>( mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>, mut compressed_assets: ResMut<Assets<GzAsset>>, query: Query<(Entity, &Compressed<A>)>, ) { for (entity, Compressed { compressed, .. }) in query.iter() { let Some(GzAsset { uncompressed }) = compressed_assets.remove(compressed) else { continue; }; let uncompressed = uncompressed.take::<A>().unwrap(); commands .entity(entity) .remove::<Compressed<A>>() .insert(asset_server.add(uncompressed)); } } ``` A key limitation to this design is how to type the internally loaded asset, since the example `GzAssetLoader` is unaware of the internal asset type `A`. As such, in this example I store the contained asset as an `ErasedLoadedAsset`, and leave it up to the consumer of the `GzAsset` to handle typing the final result, which is the purpose of the `decompress` system. This limitation can be worked around by providing type information to the `GzAssetLoader`, such as `GzAssetLoader<Image, ImageAssetLoader>`, but this would require registering the asset loader for every possible decompression target. Aside from this limitation, nested asset containerisation works as an end user would expect; if the user registers a `TarAssetLoader`, and a `GzAssetLoader`, then they can load assets with compound containerisation, such as `images.tar.gz`. --- ## Changelog - Added `LoadContext::load_direct_with_reader` - Added `asset_decompression` example ## Notes - While I believe my implementation of a Gzip asset loader is reasonable, I haven't included it as a public feature of `bevy_asset` to keep the scope of this PR as focussed as possible. - I have included `flate2` as a `dev-dependency` for the example; it is not included in the main dependency graph.

fix: upgrade to winit v0.30 (#13366) # Objective - Upgrade winit to v0.30 - Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13331 ## Solution This is a rewrite/adaptation of the new trait system described and implemented in `winit` v0.30. ## Migration Guide The custom UserEvent is now renamed as WakeUp, used to wake up the loop if anything happens outside the app (a new [custom_user_event](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13366/files#diff-2de8c0a8d3028d0059a3d80ae31b2bbc1cde2595ce2d317ea378fe3e0cf6ef2d) shows this behavior. The internal `UpdateState` has been removed and replaced internally by the AppLifecycle. When changed, the AppLifecycle is sent as an event. The `UpdateMode` now accepts only two values: `Continuous` and `Reactive`, but the latter exposes 3 new properties to enable reactive to device, user or window events. The previous `UpdateMode::Reactive` is now equivalent to `UpdateMode::reactive()`, while `UpdateMode::ReactiveLowPower` to `UpdateMode::reactive_low_power()`. The `ApplicationLifecycle` has been renamed as `AppLifecycle`, and now contains the possible values of the application state inside the event loop: * `Idle`: the loop has not started yet * `Running` (previously called `Started`): the loop is running * `WillSuspend`: the loop is going to be suspended * `Suspended`: the loop is suspended * `WillResume`: the loop is going to be resumed Note: the `Resumed` state has been removed since the resumed app is just running. Finally, now that `winit` enables this, it extends the `WinitPlugin` to support custom events. ## Test platforms - [x] Windows - [x] MacOs - [x] Linux (x11) - [x] Linux (Wayland) - [x] Android - [x] iOS - [x] WASM/WebGPU - [x] WASM/WebGL2 ## Outstanding issues / regressions - [ ] iOS: build failed in CI - blocking, but may just be flakiness - [x] Cross-platform: when the window is maximised, changes in the scale factor don't apply, to make them apply one has to make the window smaller again.

Implement BloomCompositeMode::Additive` for situations where the old school look is desired. ## Changelog * Bloom now looks different. * Added `BloomSettings:lf_boost`, `BloomSettings:lf_boost_curvature`, `BloomSettings::high_pass_frequency` and `BloomSettings::composite_mode`. * `BloomSettings::scale` removed. * `BloomSettings::knee` renamed to `BloomPrefilterSettings::softness`. * `BloomSettings::threshold` renamed to `BloomPrefilterSettings::threshold`. * The bloom example has been renamed to bloom_3d and improved. A bloom_2d example was added. ## Migration Guide * Refactor mentions of `BloomSettings::knee` and `BloomSettings::threshold` as `BloomSettings::prefilter_settings` where knee is now `softness`. * If defined without `..default()` add `..default()` to definitions of `BloomSettings` instances or manually define missing fields. * Adapt to Bloom looking visually different (if needed).

Add an example to draw a rectangle (#2957) # Objective Every time I come back to Bevy I face the same issue: how do I draw a rectangle again? How did that work? So I go to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/main/examples in the hope of finding literally the simplest possible example that draws something on the screen without any dependency such as an image. I don't want to have to add some image first, I just quickly want to get something on the screen with `main.rs` alone so that I can continue building on from that point on. Such an example is particularly helpful for a quick start for smaller projects that don't even need any assets such as images (this is my case currently). Currently every single example of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/tree/main/examples#2d-rendering (which is the first section after hello world that beginners will look for for very minimalistic and quick examples) depends on at least an asset or is too complex. This PR solves this. It also serves as a great comparison for a beginner to realize what Bevy is really like and how different it is from what they may expect Bevy to be. For example for someone coming from [LÖVE](https://love2d.org/), they will have something like this in their head when they think of drawing a rectangle: ```lua function love.draw() love.graphics.setColor(0.25, 0.25, 0.75); love.graphics.rectangle("fill", 0, 0, 50, 50); end ``` This, of course, differs quite a lot from what you do in Bevy. I imagine there will be people that just want to see something as simple as this in comparison to have a better understanding for the amount of differences. ## Solution Add a dead simple example drawing a blue 50x50 rectangle in the center with no more and no less than needed.

Add `Meshable` trait and implement meshing for 2D primitives (#11431) # Objective The first part of #10569, split up from #11007. The goal is to implement meshing support for Bevy's new geometric primitives, starting with 2D primitives. 3D meshing will be added in a follow-up, and we can consider removing the old mesh shapes completely. ## Solution Add a `Meshable` trait that primitives need to implement to support meshing, as suggested by the [RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/12-primitive-shapes.md#meshing). ```rust /// A trait for shapes that can be turned into a [`Mesh`]. pub trait Meshable { /// The output of [`Self::mesh`]. This can either be a [`Mesh`] /// or a builder used for creating a [`Mesh`]. type Output; /// Creates a [`Mesh`] for a shape. fn mesh(&self) -> Self::Output; } ``` This PR implements it for the following primitives: - `Circle` - `Ellipse` - `Rectangle` - `RegularPolygon` - `Triangle2d` The `mesh` method typically returns a builder-like struct such as `CircleMeshBuilder`. This is needed to support shape-specific configuration for things like mesh resolution or UV configuration: ```rust meshes.add(Circle { radius: 0.5 }.mesh().resolution(64)); ``` Note that if no configuration is needed, you can even skip calling `mesh` because `From<MyPrimitive>` is implemented for `Mesh`: ```rust meshes.add(Circle { radius: 0.5 }); ``` I also updated the `2d_shapes` example to use primitives, and tweaked the colors to have better contrast against the dark background. Before: ![Old 2D shapes](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/f1d8c2d5-55be-495f-8ed4-5890154b81ca) After: ![New 2D shapes](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/f166c013-34b8-4752-800a-5517b284d978) Here you can see the UVs and different facing directions: (taken from #11007, so excuse the 3D primitives at the bottom left) ![UVs and facing directions](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/57632562/eaf0be4e-187d-4b6d-8fb8-c996ba295a8a) --- ## Changelog - Added `bevy_render::mesh::primitives` module - Added `Meshable` trait and implemented it for: - `Circle` - `Ellipse` - `Rectangle` - `RegularPolygon` - `Triangle2d` - Implemented `Default` and `Copy` for several 2D primitives - Updated `2d_shapes` example to use primitives - Tweaked colors in `2d_shapes` example to have better contrast against the (new-ish) dark background --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com>

Add Sprite Flipping (#1407) OK, here's my attempt at sprite flipping. There are a couple of points that I need review/help on, but I think the UX is about ideal: ```rust .spawn(SpriteBundle { material: materials.add(texture_handle.into()), sprite: Sprite { // Flip the sprite along the x axis flip: SpriteFlip { x: true, y: false }, ..Default::default() }, ..Default::default() }); ``` Now for the issues. The big issue is that for some reason, when flipping the UVs on the sprite, there is a light "bleeding" or whatever you call it where the UV tries to sample past the texture boundry and ends up clipping. This is only noticed when resizing the window, though. You can see a screenshot below. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/25393315/107098172-397aaa00-67d4-11eb-8e02-c90c820cd70e.png) I am quite baffled why the texture sampling is overrunning like it is and could use some guidance if anybody knows what might be wrong. The other issue, which I just worked around, is that I had to remove the `#[render_resources(from_self)]` annotation from the Spritesheet because the `SpriteFlip` render resource wasn't being picked up properly in the shader when using it. I'm not sure what the cause of that was, but by removing the annotation and re-organizing the shader inputs accordingly the problem was fixed. I'm not sure if this is the most efficient way to do this or if there is a better way, but I wanted to try it out if only for the learning experience. Let me know what you think!

The addition of `ComputedTextureSlices` as a cache is to avoid querying the image data, to retrieve its dimensions, every frame in a extract or prepare stage. Also it reacts to changes so we can have stuff like this (tiling example): https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26703856/a349a9f3-33c3-471f-8ef4-a0e5dfce3b01 # Related - [ ] Once #5103 or #10099 is merged I can enable tiling and slicing for texture sheets as ui # To discuss There is an other option, to consider slice/tiling as part of the asset, using the new asset preprocessing but I have no clue on how to do it. Also, instead of retrieving the Image dimensions, we could use the same system as the sprite sheet and have the user give the image dimensions directly (grid).

Camera Driven Viewports (#4898) # Objective Users should be able to render cameras to specific areas of a render target, which enables scenarios like split screen, minimaps, etc. Builds on the new Camera Driven Rendering added here: #4745 Fixes: #202 Alternative to #1389 and #3626 (which are incompatible with the new Camera Driven Rendering) ## Solution ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2694663/171560044-f0694f67-0cd9-4598-83e2-a9658c4fed57.png) Cameras can now configure an optional "viewport", which defines a rectangle within their render target to draw to. If a `Viewport` is defined, the camera's `CameraProjection`, `View`, and visibility calculations will use the viewport configuration instead of the full render target. ```rust // This camera will render to the first half of the primary window (on the left side). commands.spawn_bundle(Camera3dBundle { camera: Camera { viewport: Some(Viewport { physical_position: UVec2::new(0, 0), physical_size: UVec2::new(window.physical_width() / 2, window.physical_height()), depth: 0.0..1.0, }), ..default() }, ..default() }); ``` To account for this, the `Camera` component has received a few adjustments: * `Camera` now has some new getter functions: * `logical_viewport_size`, `physical_viewport_size`, `logical_target_size`, `physical_target_size`, `projection_matrix` * All computed camera values are now private and live on the `ComputedCameraValues` field (logical/physical width/height, the projection matrix). They are now exposed on `Camera` via getters/setters This wasn't _needed_ for viewports, but it was long overdue. --- ## Changelog ### Added * `Camera` components now have a `viewport` field, which can be set to draw to a portion of a render target instead of the full target. * `Camera` component has some new functions: `logical_viewport_size`, `physical_viewport_size`, `logical_target_size`, `physical_target_size`, and `projection_matrix` * Added a new split_screen example illustrating how to render two cameras to the same scene ## Migration Guide `Camera::projection_matrix` is no longer a public field. Use the new `Camera::projection_matrix()` method instead: ```rust // Bevy 0.7 let projection = camera.projection_matrix; // Bevy 0.8 let projection = camera.projection_matrix(); ```

Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) MVP (#7402) ![image](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/47158642/dbb62645-f639-4f2b-b84b-26fd915c186d) # Objective - Add Screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO). SSAO approximates small-scale, local occlusion of _indirect_ diffuse light between objects. SSAO does not apply to direct lighting, such as point or directional lights. - This darkens creases, e.g. on staircases, and gives nice contact shadows where objects meet, giving entities a more "grounded" feel. - Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3632. ## Solution - Implement the GTAO algorithm. - https://www.activision.com/cdn/research/Practical_Real_Time_Strategies_for_Accurate_Indirect_Occlusion_NEW%20VERSION_COLOR.pdf - https://blog.selfshadow.com/publications/s2016-shading-course/activision/s2016_pbs_activision_occlusion.pdf - Source code heavily based on [Intel's XeGTAO](https://github.com/GameTechDev/XeGTAO/blob/0d177ce06bfa642f64d8af4de1197ad1bcb862d4/Source/Rendering/Shaders/XeGTAO.hlsli). - Add an SSAO bevy example. ## Algorithm Overview * Run a depth and normal prepass * Create downscaled mips of the depth texture (preprocess_depths pass) * GTAO pass - for each pixel, take several random samples from the depth+normal buffers, reconstruct world position, raytrace in screen space to estimate occlusion. Rather then doing completely random samples on a hemisphere, you choose random _slices_ of the hemisphere, and then can analytically compute the full occlusion of that slice. Also compute edges based on depth differences here. * Spatial denoise pass - bilateral blur, using edge detection to not blur over edges. This is the final SSAO result. * Main pass - if SSAO exists, sample the SSAO texture, and set occlusion to be the minimum of ssao/material occlusion. This then feeds into the rest of the PBR shader as normal. --- ## Future Improvements - Maybe remove the low quality preset for now (too noisy) - WebGPU fallback (see below) - Faster depth->world position (see reverted code) - Bent normals - Try interleaved gradient noise or spatiotemporal blue noise - Replace the spatial denoiser with a combined spatial+temporal denoiser - Render at half resolution and use a bilateral upsample - Better multibounce approximation (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyagcEVplIm2KkRD3WQYSO9O0Iyi1hfy/view) ## Far-Future Performance Improvements - F16 math (missing naga-wgsl support https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/issues/1884) - Faster coordinate space conversion for normals - Faster depth mipchain creation (https://github.com/GPUOpen-Effects/FidelityFX-SPD) (wgpu/naga does not currently support subgroup ops) - Deinterleaved SSAO for better cache efficiency (https://developer.nvidia.com/sites/default/files/akamai/gameworks/samples/DeinterleavedTexturing.pdf) ## Other Interesting Papers - Visibility bitmask (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00371-022-02703-y, https://cdrinmatane.github.io/posts/cgspotlight-slides/) - Screen space diffuse lighting (https://github.com/Patapom/GodComplex/blob/master/Tests/TestHBIL/2018%20Mayaux%20-%20Horizon-Based%20Indirect%20Lighting%20(HBIL).pdf) ## Platform Support * SSAO currently does not work on DirectX12 due to issues with wgpu and naga: * https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3798 * https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2353 * SSAO currently does not work on WebGPU because r16float is not a valid storage texture format https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/wgsl/#storage-texel-formats. We can fix this with a fallback to r32float. --- ## Changelog - Added ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionSettings, ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionQualityLevel, and ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionBundle --------- Co-authored-by: IceSentry <c.giguere42@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Daniel Chia <danstryder@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Elabajaba <Elabajaba@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Brandon Dyer <brandondyer64@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Edgar Geier <geieredgar@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

SSAO does not apply to direct lighting, such as point or directional lights. - This darkens creases, e.g. on staircases, and gives nice contact shadows where objects meet, giving entities a more "grounded" feel. - Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/3632. ## Solution - Implement the GTAO algorithm. - https://www.activision.com/cdn/research/Practical_Real_Time_Strategies_for_Accurate_Indirect_Occlusion_NEW%20VERSION_COLOR.pdf - https://blog.selfshadow.com/publications/s2016-shading-course/activision/s2016_pbs_activision_occlusion.pdf - Source code heavily based on [Intel's XeGTAO](https://github.com/GameTechDev/XeGTAO/blob/0d177ce06bfa642f64d8af4de1197ad1bcb862d4/Source/Rendering/Shaders/XeGTAO.hlsli). - Add an SSAO bevy example. ## Algorithm Overview * Run a depth and normal prepass * Create downscaled mips of the depth texture (preprocess_depths pass) * GTAO pass - for each pixel, take several random samples from the depth+normal buffers, reconstruct world position, raytrace in screen space to estimate occlusion. Rather then doing completely random samples on a hemisphere, you choose random _slices_ of the hemisphere, and then can analytically compute the full occlusion of that slice. Also compute edges based on depth differences here. * Spatial denoise pass - bilateral blur, using edge detection to not blur over edges. This is the final SSAO result. * Main pass - if SSAO exists, sample the SSAO texture, and set occlusion to be the minimum of ssao/material occlusion. This then feeds into the rest of the PBR shader as normal. --- ## Future Improvements - Maybe remove the low quality preset for now (too noisy) - WebGPU fallback (see below) - Faster depth->world position (see reverted code) - Bent normals - Try interleaved gradient noise or spatiotemporal blue noise - Replace the spatial denoiser with a combined spatial+temporal denoiser - Render at half resolution and use a bilateral upsample - Better multibounce approximation (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyagcEVplIm2KkRD3WQYSO9O0Iyi1hfy/view) ## Far-Future Performance Improvements - F16 math (missing naga-wgsl support https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/issues/1884) - Faster coordinate space conversion for normals - Faster depth mipchain creation (https://github.com/GPUOpen-Effects/FidelityFX-SPD) (wgpu/naga does not currently support subgroup ops) - Deinterleaved SSAO for better cache efficiency (https://developer.nvidia.com/sites/default/files/akamai/gameworks/samples/DeinterleavedTexturing.pdf) ## Other Interesting Papers - Visibility bitmask (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00371-022-02703-y, https://cdrinmatane.github.io/posts/cgspotlight-slides/) - Screen space diffuse lighting (https://github.com/Patapom/GodComplex/blob/master/Tests/TestHBIL/2018%20Mayaux%20-%20Horizon-Based%20Indirect%20Lighting%20(HBIL).pdf) ## Platform Support * SSAO currently does not work on DirectX12 due to issues with wgpu and naga: * https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3798 * https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/pull/2353 * SSAO currently does not work on WebGPU because r16float is not a valid storage texture format https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/wgsl/#storage-texel-formats. We can fix this with a fallback to r32float. --- ## Changelog - Added ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionSettings, ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionQualityLevel, and ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusionBundle --------- Co-authored-by: IceSentry <c.giguere42@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: IceSentry <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Daniel Chia <danstryder@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Elabajaba <Elabajaba@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Brandon Dyer <brandondyer64@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Edgar Geier <geieredgar@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

Spotlights (#4715) # Objective add spotlight support ## Solution / Changelog - add spotlight angles (inner, outer) to ``PointLight`` struct. emitted light is linearly attenuated from 100% to 0% as angle tends from inner to outer. Direction is taken from the existing transform rotation. - add spotlight direction (vec3) and angles (f32,f32) to ``GpuPointLight`` struct (60 bytes -> 80 bytes) in ``pbr/render/lights.rs`` and ``mesh_view_bind_group.wgsl`` - reduce no-buffer-support max point light count to 204 due to above - use spotlight data to attenuate light in ``pbr.wgsl`` - do additional cluster culling on spotlights to minimise cost in ``assign_lights_to_clusters`` - changed one of the lights in the lighting demo to a spotlight - also added a ``spotlight`` demo - probably not justified but so reviewers can see it more easily ## notes increasing the size of the GpuPointLight struct on my machine reduces the FPS of ``many_lights -- sphere`` from ~150fps to 140fps. i thought this was a reasonable tradeoff, and felt better than handling spotlights separately which is possible but would mean introducing a new bind group, refactoring light-assignment code and adding new spotlight-specific code in pbr.wgsl. the FPS impact for smaller numbers of lights should be very small. the cluster culling strategy reintroduces the cluster aabb code which was recently removed... sorry. the aabb is used to get a cluster bounding sphere, which can then be tested fairly efficiently using the strategy described at the end of https://bartwronski.com/2017/04/13/cull-that-cone/. this works well with roughly cubic clusters (where the cluster z size is close to the same as x/y size), less well for other cases like single Z slice / tiled forward rendering. In the worst case we will end up just keeping the culling of the equivalent point light. Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com>

Deferred Renderer (#9258) # Objective - Add a [Deferred Renderer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_shading) to Bevy. - This allows subsequent passes to access per pixel material information before/during shading. - Accessing this per pixel material information is needed for some features, like GI. It also makes other features (ex. Decals) simpler to implement and/or improves their capability. There are multiple approaches to accomplishing this. The deferred shading approach works well given the limitations of WebGPU and WebGL2. Motivation: [I'm working on a GI solution for Bevy](https://youtu.be/eH1AkL-mwhI) # Solution - The deferred renderer is implemented with a prepass and a deferred lighting pass. - The prepass renders opaque objects into the Gbuffer attachment (`Rgba32Uint`). The PBR shader generates a `PbrInput` in mostly the same way as the forward implementation and then [packs it into the Gbuffer](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl#L168). - The deferred lighting pass unpacks the `PbrInput` and [feeds it into the pbr() function](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl#L65), then outputs the shaded color data. - There is now a resource [DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs#L599) that can be used to set the default render method for opaque materials. If materials return `None` from [opaque_render_method()](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs#L131) the `DefaultOpaqueRendererMethod` will be used. Otherwise, custom materials can also explicitly choose to only support Deferred or Forward by returning the respective [OpaqueRendererMethod](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/material.rs#L603) - Deferred materials can be used seamlessly along with both opaque and transparent forward rendered materials in the same scene. The [deferred rendering example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/deferred/examples/3d/deferred_rendering.rs) does this. - The deferred renderer does not support MSAA. If any deferred materials are used, MSAA must be disabled. Both TAA and FXAA are supported. - Deferred rendering supports WebGL2/WebGPU. ## Custom deferred materials - Custom materials can support both deferred and forward at the same time. The [StandardMaterial](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl#L166) does this. So does [this example](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56). - Custom deferred materials that require PBR lighting can create a `PbrInput`, write it to the deferred GBuffer and let it be rendered by the `PBRDeferredLightingPlugin`. - Custom deferred materials that require custom lighting have two options: 1. Use the base_color channel of the `PbrInput` combined with the `STANDARD_MATERIAL_FLAGS_UNLIT_BIT` flag. [Example.](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy_glowy_orb_tutorial/blob/deferred/assets/shaders/glowy.wgsl#L56) (If the unlit bit is set, the base_color is stored as RGB9E5 for extra precision) 2. A Custom Deferred Lighting pass can be created, either overriding the default, or running in addition. The a depth buffer is used to limit rendering to only the required fragments for each deferred lighting pass. Materials can set their respective depth id via the [deferred_lighting_pass_id](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/b79182d2a32cac28c4213c2457a53ac2cc885332/crates/bevy_pbr/src/prepass/prepass_io.wgsl#L95) attachment. The custom deferred lighting pass plugin can then set [its corresponding depth](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl#L37). Then with the lighting pass using [CompareFunction::Equal](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/mod.rs#L335), only the fragments with a depth that equal the corresponding depth written in the material will be rendered. Custom deferred lighting plugins can also be created to render the StandardMaterial. The default deferred lighting plugin can be bypassed with `DefaultPlugins.set(PBRDeferredLightingPlugin { bypass: true })` --------- Co-authored-by: nickrart <nickolas.g.russell@gmail.com>

The custom deferred lighting pass plugin can then set [its corresponding depth](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/deferred_lighting.wgsl#L37). Then with the lighting pass using [CompareFunction::Equal](https://github.com/DGriffin91/bevy/blob/ec1465559f2c82001830e908fc02ff1d7c2efe51/crates/bevy_pbr/src/deferred/mod.rs#L335), only the fragments with a depth that equal the corresponding depth written in the material will be rendered. Custom deferred lighting plugins can also be created to render the StandardMaterial. The default deferred lighting plugin can be bypassed with `DefaultPlugins.set(PBRDeferredLightingPlugin { bypass: true })` --------- Co-authored-by: nickrart <nickolas.g.russell@gmail.com>

Per-Object Motion Blur (#9924) https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2632925/e046205e-3317-47c3-9959-fc94c529f7e0 # Objective - Adds per-object motion blur to the core 3d pipeline. This is a common effect used in games and other simulations. - Partially resolves #4710 ## Solution - This is a post-process effect that uses the depth and motion vector buffers to estimate per-object motion blur. The implementation is combined from knowledge from multiple papers and articles. The approach itself, and the shader are quite simple. Most of the effort was in wiring up the bevy rendering plumbing, and properly specializing for HDR and MSAA. - To work with MSAA, the MULTISAMPLED_SHADING wgpu capability is required. I've extracted this code from #9000. This is because the prepass buffers are multisampled, and require accessing with `textureLoad` as opposed to the widely compatible `textureSample`. - Added an example to demonstrate the effect of motion blur parameters. ## Future Improvements - While this approach does have limitations, it's one of the most commonly used, and is much better than camera motion blur, which does not consider object velocity. For example, this implementation allows a dolly to track an object, and that object will remain unblurred while the background is blurred. The biggest issue with this implementation is that blur is constrained to the boundaries of objects which results in hard edges. There are solutions to this by either dilating the object or the motion vector buffer, or by taking a different approach such as https://casual-effects.com/research/McGuire2012Blur/index.html - I'm using a noise PRNG function to jitter samples. This could be replaced with a blue noise texture lookup or similar, however after playing with the parameters, it gives quite nice results with 4 samples, and is significantly better than the artifacts generated when not jittering. --- ## Changelog - Added: per-object motion blur. This can be enabled and configured by adding the `MotionBlurBundle` to a camera entity. --------- Co-authored-by: Torstein Grindvik <52322338+torsteingrindvik@users.noreply.github.com>

Add parallax mapping to bevy PBR (#5928) # Objective Add a [parallax mapping] shader to bevy. Please note that this is a 3d technique, NOT a 2d sidescroller feature. ## Solution - Add related fields to `StandardMaterial` - update the pbr shader - Add an example taking advantage of parallax mapping A pre-existing implementation exists at: https://github.com/nicopap/bevy_mod_paramap/ The implementation is derived from: https://web.archive.org/web/20150419215321/http://sunandblackcat.com/tipFullView.php?l=eng&topicid=28 Further discussion on literature is found in the `bevy_mod_paramap` README. ### Limitations - The mesh silhouette isn't affected by the depth map. - The depth of the pixel does not reflect its visual position, resulting in artifacts for depth-dependent features such as fog or SSAO - GLTF does not define a height map texture, so somehow the user will always need to work around this limitation, though [an extension is in the works][gltf] ### Future work - It's possible to update the depth in the depth buffer to follow the parallaxed texture. This would enable interop with depth-based visual effects, it also allows `discard`ing pixels of materials when computed depth is higher than the one in depth buffer - Cheap lower quality single-sample method using [offset limiting] - Add distance fading, to disable parallaxing (relatively expensive) on distant objects - GLTF extension to allow defining height maps. Or a workaround implemented through a blender plugin to the GLTF exporter that uses the `extras` field to add height map. - [Quadratic surface vertex attributes][oliveira_3] to enable parallax mapping on bending surfaces and allow clean silhouetting. - noise based sampling, to limit the pancake artifacts. - Cone mapping ([GPU gems], [Simcity (2013)][simcity]).

`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`

Implement irradiance volumes. (#10268) # Objective Bevy could benefit from *irradiance volumes*, also known as *voxel global illumination* or simply as light probes (though this term is not preferred, as multiple techniques can be called light probes). Irradiance volumes are a form of baked global illumination; they work by sampling the light at the centers of each voxel within a cuboid. At runtime, the voxels surrounding the fragment center are sampled and interpolated to produce indirect diffuse illumination. ## Solution This is divided into two sections. The first is copied and pasted from the irradiance volume module documentation and describes the technique. The second part consists of notes on the implementation. ### Overview An *irradiance volume* is a cuboid voxel region consisting of regularly-spaced precomputed samples of diffuse indirect light. They're ideal if you have a dynamic object such as a character that can move about static non-moving geometry such as a level in a game, and you want that dynamic object to be affected by the light bouncing off that static geometry. To use irradiance volumes, you need to precompute, or *bake*, the indirect light in your scene. Bevy doesn't currently come with a way to do this. Fortunately, [Blender] provides a [baking tool] as part of the Eevee renderer, and its irradiance volumes are compatible with those used by Bevy. The [`bevy-baked-gi`] project provides a tool, `export-blender-gi`, that can extract the baked irradiance volumes from the Blender `.blend` file and package them up into a `.ktx2` texture for use by the engine. See the documentation in the `bevy-baked-gi` project for more details as to this workflow. Like all light probes in Bevy, irradiance volumes are 1×1×1 cubes that can be arbitrarily scaled, rotated, and positioned in a scene with the [`bevy_transform::components::Transform`] component. The 3D voxel grid will be stretched to fill the interior of the cube, and the illumination from the irradiance volume will apply to all fragments within that bounding region. Bevy's irradiance volumes are based on Valve's [*ambient cubes*] as used in *Half-Life 2* ([Mitchell 2006], slide 27). These encode a single color of light from the six 3D cardinal directions and blend the sides together according to the surface normal. The primary reason for choosing ambient cubes is to match Blender, so that its Eevee renderer can be used for baking. However, they also have some advantages over the common second-order spherical harmonics approach: ambient cubes don't suffer from ringing artifacts, they are smaller (6 colors for ambient cubes as opposed to 9 for spherical harmonics), and evaluation is faster. A smaller basis allows for a denser grid of voxels with the same storage requirements. If you wish to use a tool other than `export-blender-gi` to produce the irradiance volumes, you'll need to pack the irradiance volumes in the following format. The irradiance volume of resolution *(Rx, Ry, Rz)* is expected to be a 3D texture of dimensions *(Rx, 2Ry, 3Rz)*. The unnormalized texture coordinate *(s, t, p)* of the voxel at coordinate *(x, y, z)* with side *S* ∈ *{-X, +X, -Y, +Y, -Z, +Z}* is as follows: ```text s = x t = y + ⎰ 0 if S ∈ {-X, -Y, -Z} ⎱ Ry if S ∈ {+X, +Y, +Z} ⎧ 0 if S ∈ {-X, +X} p = z + ⎨ Rz if S ∈ {-Y, +Y} ⎩ 2Rz if S ∈ {-Z, +Z} ``` Visually, in a left-handed coordinate system with Y up, viewed from the right, the 3D texture looks like a stacked series of voxel grids, one for each cube side, in this order: | **+X** | **+Y** | **+Z** | | ------ | ------ | ------ | | **-X** | **-Y** | **-Z** | A terminology note: Other engines may refer to irradiance volumes as *voxel global illumination*, *VXGI*, or simply as *light probes*. Sometimes *light probe* refers to what Bevy calls a reflection probe. In Bevy, *light probe* is a generic term that encompasses all cuboid bounding regions that capture indirect illumination, whether based on voxels or not. Note that, if binding arrays aren't supported (e.g. on WebGPU or WebGL 2), then only the closest irradiance volume to the view will be taken into account during rendering. [*ambient cubes*]: https://advances.realtimerendering.com/s2006/Mitchell-ShadingInValvesSourceEngine.pdf [Mitchell 2006]: https://advances.realtimerendering.com/s2006/Mitchell-ShadingInValvesSourceEngine.pdf [Blender]: http://blender.org/ [baking tool]: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/render/eevee/render_settings/indirect_lighting.html [`bevy-baked-gi`]: https://github.com/pcwalton/bevy-baked-gi ### Implementation notes This patch generalizes light probes so as to reuse as much code as possible between irradiance volumes and the existing reflection probes. This approach was chosen because both techniques share numerous similarities: 1. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes are cuboid bounding regions. 2. Both are responsible for providing baked indirect light. 3. Both techniques involve presenting a variable number of textures to the shader from which indirect light is sampled. (In the current implementation, this uses binding arrays.) 4. Both irradiance volumes and reflection probes require gathering and sorting probes by distance on CPU. 5. Both techniques require the GPU to search through a list of bounding regions. 6. Both will eventually want to have falloff so that we can smoothly blend as objects enter and exit the probes' influence ranges. (This is not implemented yet to keep this patch relatively small and reviewable.) To do this, we generalize most of the methods in the reflection probes patch #11366 to be generic over a trait, `LightProbeComponent`. This trait is implemented by both `EnvironmentMapLight` (for reflection probes) and `IrradianceVolume` (for irradiance volumes). Using a trait will allow us to add more types of light probes in the future. In particular, I highly suspect we will want real-time reflection planes for mirrors in the future, which can be easily slotted into this framework. ## Changelog > This section is optional. If this was a trivial fix, or has no externally-visible impact, you can delete this section. ### Added * A new `IrradianceVolume` asset type is available for baked voxelized light probes. You can bake the global illumination using Blender or another tool of your choice and use it in Bevy to apply indirect illumination to dynamic objects.

Implement the `AnimationGraph`, allowing for multiple animations to be blended together. (#11989) This is an implementation of RFC #51: https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/51-animation-composition.md Note that the implementation strategy is different from the one outlined in that RFC, because two-phase animation has now landed. # Objective Bevy needs animation blending. The RFC for this is [RFC 51]. ## Solution This is an implementation of the RFC. Note that the implementation strategy is different from the one outlined there, because two-phase animation has now landed. This is just a draft to get the conversation started. Currently we're missing a few things: - [x] A fully-fleshed-out mechanism for transitions - [x] A serialization format for `AnimationGraph`s - [x] Examples are broken, other than `animated_fox` - [x] Documentation --- ## Changelog ### Added * The `AnimationPlayer` has been reworked to support blending multiple animations together through an `AnimationGraph`, and as such will no longer function unless a `Handle<AnimationGraph>` has been added to the entity containing the player. See [RFC 51] for more details. * Transition functionality has moved from the `AnimationPlayer` to a new component, `AnimationTransitions`, which works in tandem with the `AnimationGraph`. ## Migration Guide * `AnimationPlayer`s can no longer play animations by themselves and need to be paired with a `Handle<AnimationGraph>`. Code that was using `AnimationPlayer` to play animations will need to create an `AnimationGraph` asset first, add a node for the clip (or clips) you want to play, and then supply the index of that node to the `AnimationPlayer`'s `play` method. * The `AnimationPlayer::play_with_transition()` method has been removed and replaced with the `AnimationTransitions` component. If you were previously using `AnimationPlayer::play_with_transition()`, add all animations that you were playing to the `AnimationGraph`, and create an `AnimationTransitions` component to manage the blending between them.

Add morph targets (#8158) # Objective - Add morph targets to `bevy_pbr` (closes #5756) & load them from glTF - Supersedes #3722 - Fixes #6814 [Morph targets][1] (also known as shape interpolation, shape keys, or blend shapes) allow animating individual vertices with fine grained controls. This is typically used for facial expressions. By specifying multiple poses as vertex offset, and providing a set of weight of each pose, it is possible to define surprisingly realistic transitions between poses. Blending between multiple poses also allow composition. Morph targets are part of the [gltf standard][2] and are a feature of Unity and Unreal, and babylone.js, it is only natural to implement them in bevy. ## Solution This implementation of morph targets uses a 3d texture where each pixel is a component of an animated attribute. Each layer is a different target. We use a 2d texture for each target, because the number of attribute×components×animated vertices is expected to always exceed the maximum pixel row size limit of webGL2. It copies fairly closely the way skinning is implemented on the CPU side, while on the GPU side, the shader morph target implementation is a relatively trivial detail. We add an optional `morph_texture` to the `Mesh` struct. The `morph_texture` is built through a method that accepts an iterator over attribute buffers. The `MorphWeights` component, user-accessible, controls the blend of poses used by mesh instances (so that multiple copy of the same mesh may have different weights), all the weights are uploaded to a uniform buffer of 256 `f32`. We limit to 16 poses per mesh, and a total of 256 poses.

Added Method to Allow Pipelined Asset Loading (#10565) # Objective - Fixes #10518 ## Solution I've added a method to `LoadContext`, `load_direct_with_reader`, which mirrors the behaviour of `load_direct` with a single key difference: it is provided with the `Reader` by the caller, rather than getting it from the contained `AssetServer`. This allows for an `AssetLoader` to process its `Reader` stream, and then directly hand the results off to the `LoadContext` to handle further loading. The outer `AssetLoader` can control how the `Reader` is interpreted by providing a relevant `AssetPath`. For example, a Gzip decompression loader could process the asset `images/my_image.png.gz` by decompressing the bytes, then handing the decompressed result to the `LoadContext` with the new path `images/my_image.png.gz/my_image.png`. This intuitively reflects the nature of contained assets, whilst avoiding unintended behaviour, since the generated path cannot be a real file path (a file and folder of the same name cannot coexist in most file-systems). ```rust #[derive(Asset, TypePath)] pub struct GzAsset { pub uncompressed: ErasedLoadedAsset, } #[derive(Default)] pub struct GzAssetLoader; impl AssetLoader for GzAssetLoader { type Asset = GzAsset; type Settings = (); type Error = GzAssetLoaderError; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, _settings: &'a (), load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Self::Asset, Self::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let compressed_path = load_context.path(); let file_name = compressed_path .file_name() .ok_or(GzAssetLoaderError::IndeterminateFilePath)? .to_string_lossy(); let uncompressed_file_name = file_name .strip_suffix(".gz") .ok_or(GzAssetLoaderError::IndeterminateFilePath)?; let contained_path = compressed_path.join(uncompressed_file_name); let mut bytes_compressed = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes_compressed).await?; let mut decoder = GzDecoder::new(bytes_compressed.as_slice()); let mut bytes_uncompressed = Vec::new(); decoder.read_to_end(&mut bytes_uncompressed)?; // Now that we have decompressed the asset, let's pass it back to the // context to continue loading let mut reader = VecReader::new(bytes_uncompressed); let uncompressed = load_context .load_direct_with_reader(&mut reader, contained_path) .await?; Ok(GzAsset { uncompressed }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["gz"] } } ``` Because this example is so prudent, I've included an `asset_decompression` example which implements this exact behaviour: ```rust fn main() { App::new() .add_plugins(DefaultPlugins) .init_asset::<GzAsset>() .init_asset_loader::<GzAssetLoader>() .add_systems(Startup, setup) .add_systems(Update, decompress::<Image>) .run(); } fn setup(mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { commands.spawn(Camera2dBundle::default()); commands.spawn(( Compressed::<Image> { compressed: asset_server.load("data/compressed_image.png.gz"), ..default() }, Sprite::default(), TransformBundle::default(), VisibilityBundle::default(), )); } fn decompress<A: Asset>( mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>, mut compressed_assets: ResMut<Assets<GzAsset>>, query: Query<(Entity, &Compressed<A>)>, ) { for (entity, Compressed { compressed, .. }) in query.iter() { let Some(GzAsset { uncompressed }) = compressed_assets.remove(compressed) else { continue; }; let uncompressed = uncompressed.take::<A>().unwrap(); commands .entity(entity) .remove::<Compressed<A>>() .insert(asset_server.add(uncompressed)); } } ``` A key limitation to this design is how to type the internally loaded asset, since the example `GzAssetLoader` is unaware of the internal asset type `A`. As such, in this example I store the contained asset as an `ErasedLoadedAsset`, and leave it up to the consumer of the `GzAsset` to handle typing the final result, which is the purpose of the `decompress` system. This limitation can be worked around by providing type information to the `GzAssetLoader`, such as `GzAssetLoader<Image, ImageAssetLoader>`, but this would require registering the asset loader for every possible decompression target. Aside from this limitation, nested asset containerisation works as an end user would expect; if the user registers a `TarAssetLoader`, and a `GzAssetLoader`, then they can load assets with compound containerisation, such as `images.tar.gz`. --- ## Changelog - Added `LoadContext::load_direct_with_reader` - Added `asset_decompression` example ## Notes - While I believe my implementation of a Gzip asset loader is reasonable, I haven't included it as a public feature of `bevy_asset` to keep the scope of this PR as focussed as possible. - I have included `flate2` as a `dev-dependency` for the example; it is not included in the main dependency graph.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

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.

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

Bevy Asset V2 (#8624) # Bevy Asset V2 Proposal ## Why Does Bevy Need A New Asset System? Asset pipelines are a central part of the gamedev process. Bevy's current asset system is missing a number of features that make it non-viable for many classes of gamedev. After plenty of discussions and [a long community feedback period](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3972), we've identified a number missing features: * **Asset Preprocessing**: it should be possible to "preprocess" / "compile" / "crunch" assets at "development time" rather than when the game starts up. This enables offloading expensive work from deployed apps, faster asset loading, less runtime memory usage, etc. * **Per-Asset Loader Settings**: Individual assets cannot define their own loaders that override the defaults. Additionally, they cannot provide per-asset settings to their loaders. This is a huge limitation, as many asset types don't provide all information necessary for Bevy _inside_ the asset. For example, a raw PNG image says nothing about how it should be sampled (ex: linear vs nearest). * **Asset `.meta` files**: assets should have configuration files stored adjacent to the asset in question, which allows the user to configure asset-type-specific settings. These settings should be accessible during the pre-processing phase. Modifying a `.meta` file should trigger a re-processing / re-load of the asset. It should be possible to configure asset loaders from the meta file. * **Processed Asset Hot Reloading**: Changes to processed assets (or their dependencies) should result in re-processing them and re-loading the results in live Bevy Apps. * **Asset Dependency Tracking**: The current bevy_asset has no good way to wait for asset dependencies to load. It punts this as an exercise for consumers of the loader apis, which is unreasonable and error prone. There should be easy, ergonomic ways to wait for assets to load and block some logic on an asset's entire dependency tree loading. * **Runtime Asset Loading**: it should be (optionally) possible to load arbitrary assets dynamically at runtime. This necessitates being able to deploy and run the asset server alongside Bevy Apps on _all platforms_. For example, we should be able to invoke the shader compiler at runtime, stream scenes from sources like the internet, etc. To keep deployed binaries (and startup times) small, the runtime asset server configuration should be configurable with different settings compared to the "pre processor asset server". * **Multiple Backends**: It should be possible to load assets from arbitrary sources (filesystems, the internet, remote asset serves, etc). * **Asset Packing**: It should be possible to deploy assets in compressed "packs", which makes it easier and more efficient to distribute assets with Bevy Apps. * **Asset Handoff**: It should be possible to hold a "live" asset handle, which correlates to runtime data, without actually holding the asset in memory. Ex: it must be possible to hold a reference to a GPU mesh generated from a "mesh asset" without keeping the mesh data in CPU memory * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: Different platforms and app distributions have different capabilities and requirements. Some platforms need lower asset resolutions or different asset formats to operate within the hardware constraints of the platform. It should be possible to define per-platform asset processing profiles. And it should be possible to deploy only the assets required for a given platform. These features have architectural implications that are significant enough to require a full rewrite. The current Bevy Asset implementation got us this far, but it can take us no farther. This PR defines a brand new asset system that implements most of these features, while laying the foundations for the remaining features to be built. ## Bevy Asset V2 Here is a quick overview of the features introduced in this PR. * **Asset Preprocessing**: Preprocess assets at development time into more efficient (and configurable) representations * **Dependency Aware**: Dependencies required to process an asset are tracked. If an asset's processed dependency changes, it will be reprocessed * **Hot Reprocessing/Reloading**: detect changes to asset source files, reprocess them if they have changed, and then hot-reload them in Bevy Apps. * **Only Process Changes**: Assets are only re-processed when their source file (or meta file) has changed. This uses hashing and timestamps to avoid processing assets that haven't changed. * **Transactional and Reliable**: Uses write-ahead logging (a technique commonly used by databases) to recover from crashes / forced-exits. Whenever possible it avoids full-reprocessing / only uncompleted transactions will be reprocessed. When the processor is running in parallel with a Bevy App, processor asset writes block Bevy App asset reads. Reading metadata + asset bytes is guaranteed to be transactional / correctly paired. * **Portable / Run anywhere / Database-free**: The processor does not rely on an in-memory database (although it uses some database techniques for reliability). This is important because pretty much all in-memory databases have unsupported platforms or build complications. * **Configure Processor Defaults Per File Type**: You can say "use this processor for all files of this type". * **Custom Processors**: The `Processor` trait is flexible and unopinionated. It can be implemented by downstream plugins. * **LoadAndSave Processors**: Most asset processing scenarios can be expressed as "run AssetLoader A, save the results using AssetSaver X, and then load the result using AssetLoader B". For example, load this png image using `PngImageLoader`, which produces an `Image` asset and then save it using `CompressedImageSaver` (which also produces an `Image` asset, but in a compressed format), which takes an `Image` asset as input. This means if you have an `AssetLoader` for an asset, you are already half way there! It also means that you can share AssetSavers across multiple loaders. Because `CompressedImageSaver` accepts Bevy's generic Image asset as input, it means you can also use it with some future `JpegImageLoader`. * **Loader and Saver Settings**: Asset Loaders and Savers can now define their own settings types, which are passed in as input when an asset is loaded / saved. Each asset can define its own settings. * **Asset `.meta` files**: configure asset loaders, their settings, enable/disable processing, and configure processor settings * **Runtime Asset Dependency Tracking** Runtime asset dependencies (ex: if an asset contains a `Handle<Image>`) are tracked by the asset server. An event is emitted when an asset and all of its dependencies have been loaded * **Unprocessed Asset Loading**: Assets do not require preprocessing. They can be loaded directly. A processed asset is just a "normal" asset with some extra metadata. Asset Loaders don't need to know or care about whether or not an asset was processed. * **Async Asset IO**: Asset readers/writers use async non-blocking interfaces. Note that because Rust doesn't yet support async traits, there is a bit of manual Boxing / Future boilerplate. This will hopefully be removed in the near future when Rust gets async traits. * **Pluggable Asset Readers and Writers**: Arbitrary asset source readers/writers are supported, both by the processor and the asset server. * **Better Asset Handles** * **Single Arc Tree**: Asset Handles now use a single arc tree that represents the lifetime of the asset. This makes their implementation simpler, more efficient, and allows us to cheaply attach metadata to handles. Ex: the AssetPath of a handle is now directly accessible on the handle itself! * **Const Typed Handles**: typed handles can be constructed in a const context. No more weird "const untyped converted to typed at runtime" patterns! * **Handles and Ids are Smaller / Faster To Hash / Compare**: Typed `Handle<T>` is now much smaller in memory and `AssetId<T>` is even smaller. * **Weak Handle Usage Reduction**: In general Handles are now considered to be "strong". Bevy features that previously used "weak `Handle<T>`" have been ported to `AssetId<T>`, which makes it statically clear that the features do not hold strong handles (while retaining strong type information). Currently Handle::Weak still exists, but it is very possible that we can remove that entirely. * **Efficient / Dense Asset Ids**: Assets now have efficient dense runtime asset ids, which means we can avoid expensive hash lookups. Assets are stored in Vecs instead of HashMaps. There are now typed and untyped ids, which means we no longer need to store dynamic type information in the ID for typed handles. "AssetPathId" (which was a nightmare from a performance and correctness standpoint) has been entirely removed in favor of dense ids (which are retrieved for a path on load) * **Direct Asset Loading, with Dependency Tracking**: Assets that are defined at runtime can still have their dependencies tracked by the Asset Server (ex: if you create a material at runtime, you can still wait for its textures to load). This is accomplished via the (currently optional) "asset dependency visitor" trait. This system can also be used to define a set of assets to load, then wait for those assets to load. * **Async folder loading**: Folder loading also uses this system and immediately returns a handle to the LoadedFolder asset, which means folder loading no longer blocks on directory traversals. * **Improved Loader Interface**: Loaders now have a specific "top level asset type", which makes returning the top-level asset simpler and statically typed. * **Basic Image Settings and Processing**: Image assets can now be processed into the gpu-friendly Basic Universal format. The ImageLoader now has a setting to define what format the image should be loaded as. Note that this is just a minimal MVP ... plenty of additional work to do here. To demo this, enable the `basis-universal` feature and turn on asset processing. * **Simpler Audio Play / AudioSink API**: Asset handle providers are cloneable, which means the Audio resource can mint its own handles. This means you can now do `let sink_handle = audio.play(music)` instead of `let sink_handle = audio_sinks.get_handle(audio.play(music))`. Note that this might still be replaced by https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8424. **Removed Handle Casting From Engine Features**: Ex: FontAtlases no longer use casting between handle types ## Using The New Asset System ### Normal Unprocessed Asset Loading By default the `AssetPlugin` does not use processing. It behaves pretty much the same way as the old system. If you are defining a custom asset, first derive `Asset`: ```rust #[derive(Asset)] struct Thing { value: String, } ``` Initialize the asset: ```rust app.init_asset:<Thing>() ``` Implement a new `AssetLoader` for it: ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ThingLoader; #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)] pub struct ThingSettings { some_setting: bool, } impl AssetLoader for ThingLoader { type Asset = Thing; type Settings = ThingSettings; fn load<'a>( &'a self, reader: &'a mut Reader, settings: &'a ThingSettings, load_context: &'a mut LoadContext, ) -> BoxedFuture<'a, Result<Thing, anyhow::Error>> { Box::pin(async move { let mut bytes = Vec::new(); reader.read_to_end(&mut bytes).await?; // convert bytes to value somehow Ok(Thing { value }) }) } fn extensions(&self) -> &[&str] { &["thing"] } } ``` Note that this interface will get much cleaner once Rust gets support for async traits. `Reader` is an async futures_io::AsyncRead. You can stream bytes as they come in or read them all into a `Vec<u8>`, depending on the context. You can use `let handle = load_context.load(path)` to kick off a dependency load, retrieve a handle, and register the dependency for the asset. Then just register the loader in your Bevy app: ```rust app.init_asset_loader::<ThingLoader>() ``` Now just add your `Thing` asset files into the `assets` folder and load them like this: ```rust fn system(asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) { let handle = Handle<Thing> = asset_server.load("cool.thing"); } ``` You can check load states directly via the asset server: ```rust if asset_server.load_state(&handle) == LoadState::Loaded { } ``` You can also listen for events: ```rust fn system(mut events: EventReader<AssetEvent<Thing>>, handle: Res<SomeThingHandle>) { for event in events.iter() { if event.is_loaded_with_dependencies(&handle) { } } } ``` Note the new `AssetEvent::LoadedWithDependencies`, which only fires when the asset is loaded _and_ all dependencies (and their dependencies) have loaded. Unlike the old asset system, for a given asset path all `Handle<T>` values point to the same underlying Arc. This means Handles can cheaply hold more asset information, such as the AssetPath: ```rust // prints the AssetPath of the handle info!("{:?}", handle.path()) ``` ### Processed Assets Asset processing can be enabled via the `AssetPlugin`. When developing Bevy Apps with processed assets, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev())) ``` This runs the `AssetProcessor` in the background with hot-reloading. It reads assets from the `assets` folder, processes them, and writes them to the `.imported_assets` folder. Asset loads in the Bevy App will wait for a processed version of the asset to become available. If an asset in the `assets` folder changes, it will be reprocessed and hot-reloaded in the Bevy App. When deploying processed Bevy apps, do this: ```rust app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed())) ``` This does not run the `AssetProcessor` in the background. It behaves like `AssetPlugin::unprocessed()`, but reads assets from `.imported_assets`. When the `AssetProcessor` is running, it will populate sibling `.meta` files for assets in the `assets` folder. Meta files for assets that do not have a processor configured look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` This is metadata for an image asset. For example, if you have `assets/my_sprite.png`, this could be the metadata stored at `assets/my_sprite.png.meta`. Meta files are totally optional. If no metadata exists, the default settings will be used. In short, this file says "load this asset with the ImageLoader and use the file extension to determine the image type". This type of meta file is supported in all AssetPlugin modes. If in `Unprocessed` mode, the asset (with the meta settings) will be loaded directly. If in `ProcessedDev` mode, the asset file will be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder. The meta will also be copied directly to the `.imported_assets` folder, but with one addition: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 12415480888597742505, full_hash: 14344495437905856884, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), ), ) ``` `processed_info` contains `hash` (a direct hash of the asset and meta bytes), `full_hash` (a hash of `hash` and the hashes of all `process_dependencies`), and `process_dependencies` (the `path` and `full_hash` of every process_dependency). A "process dependency" is an asset dependency that is _directly_ used when processing the asset. Images do not have process dependencies, so this is empty. When the processor is enabled, you can use the `Process` metadata config: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Process( processor: "bevy_asset::processor::process::LoadAndSave<bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader, bevy_render::texture::compressed_image_saver::CompressedImageSaver>", settings: ( loader_settings: ( format: FromExtension, ), saver_settings: ( generate_mipmaps: true, ), ), ), ) ``` This configures the asset to use the `LoadAndSave` processor, which runs an AssetLoader and feeds the result into an AssetSaver (which saves the given Asset and defines a loader to load it with). (for terseness LoadAndSave will likely get a shorter/friendlier type name when [Stable Type Paths](#7184) lands). `LoadAndSave` is likely to be the most common processor type, but arbitrary processors are supported. `CompressedImageSaver` saves an `Image` in the Basis Universal format and configures the ImageLoader to load it as basis universal. The `AssetProcessor` will read this meta, run it through the LoadAndSave processor, and write the basis-universal version of the image to `.imported_assets`. The final metadata will look like this: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", processed_info: Some(( hash: 905599590923828066, full_hash: 9948823010183819117, process_dependencies: [], )), asset: Load( loader: "bevy_render::texture::image_loader::ImageLoader", settings: ( format: Format(Basis), ), ), ) ``` To try basis-universal processing out in Bevy examples, (for example `sprite.rs`), change `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)` to `add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin::processed_dev()))` and run with the `basis-universal` feature enabled: `cargo run --features=basis-universal --example sprite`. To create a custom processor, there are two main paths: 1. Use the `LoadAndSave` processor with an existing `AssetLoader`. Implement the `AssetSaver` trait, register the processor using `asset_processor.register_processor::<LoadAndSave<ImageLoader, CompressedImageSaver>>(image_saver.into())`. 2. Implement the `Process` trait directly and register it using: `asset_processor.register_processor(thing_processor)`. You can configure default processors for file extensions like this: ```rust asset_processor.set_default_processor::<ThingProcessor>("thing") ``` There is one more metadata type to be aware of: ```rust ( meta_format_version: "1.0", asset: Ignore, ) ``` This will ignore the asset during processing / prevent it from being written to `.imported_assets`. The AssetProcessor stores a transaction log at `.imported_assets/log` and uses it to gracefully recover from unexpected stops. This means you can force-quit the processor (and Bevy Apps running the processor in parallel) at arbitrary times! `.imported_assets` is "local state". It should _not_ be checked into source control. It should also be considered "read only". In practice, you _can_ modify processed assets and processed metadata if you really need to test something. But those modifications will not be represented in the hashes of the assets, so the processed state will be "out of sync" with the source assets. The processor _will not_ fix this for you. Either revert the change after you have tested it, or delete the processed files so they can be re-populated. ## Open Questions There are a number of open questions to be discussed. We should decide if they need to be addressed in this PR and if so, how we will address them: ### Implied Dependencies vs Dependency Enumeration There are currently two ways to populate asset dependencies: * **Implied via AssetLoaders**: if an AssetLoader loads an asset (and retrieves a handle), a dependency is added to the list. * **Explicit via the optional Asset::visit_dependencies**: if `server.load_asset(my_asset)` is called, it will call `my_asset.visit_dependencies`, which will grab dependencies that have been manually defined for the asset via the Asset trait impl (which can be derived). This means that defining explicit dependencies is optional for "loaded assets". And the list of dependencies is always accurate because loaders can only produce Handles if they register dependencies. If an asset was loaded with an AssetLoader, it only uses the implied dependencies. If an asset was created at runtime and added with `asset_server.load_asset(MyAsset)`, it will use `Asset::visit_dependencies`. However this can create a behavior mismatch between loaded assets and equivalent "created at runtime" assets if `Assets::visit_dependencies` doesn't exactly match the dependencies produced by the AssetLoader. This behavior mismatch can be resolved by completely removing "implied loader dependencies" and requiring `Asset::visit_dependencies` to supply dependency data. But this creates two problems: * It makes defining loaded assets harder and more error prone: Devs must remember to manually annotate asset dependencies with `#[dependency]` when deriving `Asset`. For more complicated assets (such as scenes), the derive likely wouldn't be sufficient and a manual `visit_dependencies` impl would be required. * Removes the ability to immediately kick off dependency loads: When AssetLoaders retrieve a Handle, they also immediately kick off an asset load for the handle, which means it can start loading in parallel _before_ the asset finishes loading. For large assets, this could be significant. (although this could be mitigated for processed assets if we store dependencies in the processed meta file and load them ahead of time) ### Eager ProcessorDev Asset Loading I made a controversial call in the interest of fast startup times ("time to first pixel") for the "processor dev mode configuration". When initializing the AssetProcessor, current processed versions of unchanged assets are yielded immediately, even if their dependencies haven't been checked yet for reprocessing. This means that non-current-state-of-filesystem-but-previously-valid assets might be returned to the App first, then hot-reloaded if/when their dependencies change and the asset is reprocessed. Is this behavior desirable? There is largely one alternative: do not yield an asset from the processor to the app until all of its dependencies have been checked for changes. In some common cases (load dependency has not changed since last run) this will increase startup time. The main question is "by how much" and is that slower startup time worth it in the interest of only yielding assets that are true to the current state of the filesystem. Should this be configurable? I'm starting to think we should only yield an asset after its (historical) dependencies have been checked for changes + processed as necessary, but I'm curious what you all think. ### Paths Are Currently The Only Canonical ID / Do We Want Asset UUIDs? In this implementation AssetPaths are the only canonical asset identifier (just like the previous Bevy Asset system and Godot). Moving assets will result in re-scans (and currently reprocessing, although reprocessing can easily be avoided with some changes). Asset renames/moves will break code and assets that rely on specific paths, unless those paths are fixed up. Do we want / need "stable asset uuids"? Introducing them is very possible: 1. Generate a UUID and include it in .meta files 2. Support UUID in AssetPath 3. Generate "asset indices" which are loaded on startup and map UUIDs to paths. 4 (maybe). Consider only supporting UUIDs for processed assets so we can generate quick-to-load indices instead of scanning meta files. The main "pro" is that assets referencing UUIDs don't need to be migrated when a path changes. The main "con" is that UUIDs cannot be "lazily resolved" like paths. They need a full view of all assets to answer the question "does this UUID exist". Which means UUIDs require the AssetProcessor to fully finish startup scans before saying an asset doesnt exist. And they essentially require asset pre-processing to use in apps, because scanning all asset metadata files at runtime to resolve a UUID is not viable for medium-to-large apps. It really requires a pre-generated UUID index, which must be loaded before querying for assets. I personally think this should be investigated in a separate PR. Paths aren't going anywhere ... _everyone_ uses filesystems (and filesystem-like apis) to manage their asset source files. I consider them permanent canonical asset information. Additionally, they behave well for both processed and unprocessed asset modes. Given that Bevy is supporting both, this feels like the right canonical ID to start with. UUIDS (and maybe even other indexed-identifier types) can be added later as necessary. ### Folder / File Naming Conventions All asset processing config currently lives in the `.imported_assets` folder. The processor transaction log is in `.imported_assets/log`. Processed assets are added to `.imported_assets/Default`, which will make migrating to processed asset profiles (ex: a `.imported_assets/Mobile` profile) a non-breaking change. It also allows us to create top-level files like `.imported_assets/log` without it being interpreted as an asset. Meta files currently have a `.meta` suffix. Do we like these names and conventions? ### Should the `AssetPlugin::processed_dev` configuration enable `watch_for_changes` automatically? Currently it does (which I think makes sense), but it does make it the only configuration that enables watch_for_changes by default. ### Discuss on_loaded High Level Interface: This PR includes a very rough "proof of concept" `on_loaded` system adapter that uses the `LoadedWithDependencies` event in combination with `asset_server.load_asset` dependency tracking to support this pattern ```rust fn main() { App::new() .init_asset::<MyAssets>() .add_systems(Update, on_loaded(create_array_texture)) .run(); } #[derive(Asset, Clone)] struct MyAssets { #[dependency] picture_of_my_cat: Handle<Image>, #[dependency] picture_of_my_other_cat: Handle<Image>, } impl FromWorld for ArrayTexture { fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self { picture_of_my_cat: server.load("meow.png"), picture_of_my_other_cat: server.load("meeeeeeeow.png"), } } fn spawn_cat(In(my_assets): In<MyAssets>, mut commands: Commands) { commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_cat.clone(), ..default() }); commands.spawn(SpriteBundle { texture: my_assets.picture_of_my_other_cat.clone(), ..default() }); } ``` The implementation is _very_ rough. And it is currently unsafe because `bevy_ecs` doesn't expose some internals to do this safely from inside `bevy_asset`. There are plenty of unanswered questions like: * "do we add a Loadable" derive? (effectively automate the FromWorld implementation above) * Should `MyAssets` even be an Asset? (largely implemented this way because it elegantly builds on `server.load_asset(MyAsset { .. })` dependency tracking). We should think hard about what our ideal API looks like (and if this is a pattern we want to support). Not necessarily something we need to solve in this PR. The current `on_loaded` impl should probably be removed from this PR before merging. ## Clarifying Questions ### What about Assets as Entities? This Bevy Asset V2 proposal implementation initially stored Assets as ECS Entities. Instead of `AssetId<T>` + the `Assets<T>` resource it used `Entity` as the asset id and Asset values were just ECS components. There are plenty of compelling reasons to do this: 1. Easier to inline assets in Bevy Scenes (as they are "just" normal entities + components) 2. More flexible queries: use the power of the ECS to filter assets (ex: `Query<Mesh, With<Tree>>`). 3. Extensible. Users can add arbitrary component data to assets. 4. Things like "component visualization tools" work out of the box to visualize asset data. However Assets as Entities has a ton of caveats right now: * We need to be able to allocate entity ids without a direct World reference (aka rework id allocator in Entities ... i worked around this in my prototypes by just pre allocating big chunks of entities) * We want asset change events in addition to ECS change tracking ... how do we populate them when mutations can come from anywhere? Do we use Changed queries? This would require iterating over the change data for all assets every frame. Is this acceptable or should we implement a new "event based" component change detection option? * Reconciling manually created assets with asset-system managed assets has some nuance (ex: are they "loaded" / do they also have that component metadata?) * "how do we handle "static" / default entity handles" (ties in to the Entity Indices discussion: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/8319). This is necessary for things like "built in" assets and default handles in things like SpriteBundle. * Storing asset information as a component makes it easy to "invalidate" asset state by removing the component (or forcing modifications). Ideally we have ways to lock this down (some combination of Rust type privacy and ECS validation) In practice, how we store and identify assets is a reasonably superficial change (porting off of Assets as Entities and implementing dedicated storage + ids took less than a day). So once we sort out the remaining challenges the flip should be straightforward. Additionally, I do still have "Assets as Entities" in my commit history, so we can reuse that work. I personally think "assets as entities" is a good endgame, but it also doesn't provide _significant_ value at the moment and it certainly isn't ready yet with the current state of things. ### Why not Distill? [Distill](https://github.com/amethyst/distill) is a high quality fully featured asset system built in Rust. It is very natural to ask "why not just use Distill?". It is also worth calling out that for awhile, [we planned on adopting Distill / I signed off on it](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/708). However I think Bevy has a number of constraints that make Distill adoption suboptimal: * **Architectural Simplicity:** * Distill's processor requires an in-memory database (lmdb) and RPC networked API (using Cap'n Proto). Each of these introduces API complexity that increases maintenance burden and "code grokability". Ignoring tests, documentation, and examples, Distill has 24,237 lines of Rust code (including generated code for RPC + database interactions). If you ignore generated code, it has 11,499 lines. * Bevy builds the AssetProcessor and AssetServer using pluggable AssetReader/AssetWriter Rust traits with simple io interfaces. They do not necessitate databases or RPC interfaces (although Readers/Writers could use them if that is desired). Bevy Asset V2 (at the time of writing this PR) is 5,384 lines of Rust code (ignoring tests, documentation, and examples). Grain of salt: Distill does have more features currently (ex: Asset Packing, GUIDS, remote-out-of-process asset processor). I do plan to implement these features in Bevy Asset V2 and I personally highly doubt they will meaningfully close the 6115 lines-of-code gap. * This complexity gap (which while illustrated by lines of code, is much bigger than just that) is noteworthy to me. Bevy should be hackable and there are pillars of Distill that are very hard to understand and extend. This is a matter of opinion (and Bevy Asset V2 also has complicated areas), but I think Bevy Asset V2 is much more approachable for the average developer. * Necessary disclaimer: counting lines of code is an extremely rough complexity metric. Read the code and form your own opinions. * **Optional Asset Processing:** Not all Bevy Apps (or Bevy App developers) need / want asset preprocessing. Processing increases the complexity of the development environment by introducing things like meta files, imported asset storage, running processors in the background, waiting for processing to finish, etc. Distill _requires_ preprocessing to work. With Bevy Asset V2 processing is fully opt-in. The AssetServer isn't directly aware of asset processors at all. AssetLoaders only care about converting bytes to runtime Assets ... they don't know or care if the bytes were pre-processed or not. Processing is "elegantly" (forgive my self-congratulatory phrasing) layered on top and builds on the existing Asset system primitives. * **Direct Filesystem Access to Processed Asset State:** Distill stores processed assets in a database. This makes debugging / inspecting the processed outputs harder (either requires special tooling to query the database or they need to be "deployed" to be inspected). Bevy Asset V2, on the other hand, stores processed assets in the filesystem (by default ... this is configurable). This makes interacting with the processed state more natural. Note that both Godot and Unity's new asset system store processed assets in the filesystem. * **Portability**: Because Distill's processor uses lmdb and RPC networking, it cannot be run on certain platforms (ex: lmdb is a non-rust dependency that cannot run on the web, some platforms don't support running network servers). Bevy should be able to process assets everywhere (ex: run the Bevy Editor on the web, compile + process shaders on mobile, etc). Distill does partially mitigate this problem by supporting "streaming" assets via the RPC protocol, but this is not a full solve from my perspective. And Bevy Asset V2 can (in theory) also stream assets (without requiring RPC, although this isn't implemented yet) Note that I _do_ still think Distill would be a solid asset system for Bevy. But I think the approach in this PR is a better solve for Bevy's specific "asset system requirements". ### Doesn't async-fs just shim requests to "sync" `std::fs`? What is the point? "True async file io" has limited / spotty platform support. async-fs (and the rust async ecosystem generally ... ex Tokio) currently use async wrappers over std::fs that offload blocking requests to separate threads. This may feel unsatisfying, but it _does_ still provide value because it prevents our task pools from blocking on file system operations (which would prevent progress when there are many tasks to do, but all threads in a pool are currently blocking on file system ops). Additionally, using async APIs for our AssetReaders and AssetWriters also provides value because we can later add support for "true async file io" for platforms that support it. _And_ we can implement other "true async io" asset backends (such as networked asset io). ## Draft TODO - [x] Fill in missing filesystem event APIs: file removed event (which is expressed as dangling RenameFrom events in some cases), file/folder renamed event - [x] Assets without loaders are not moved to the processed folder. This breaks things like referenced `.bin` files for GLTFs. This should be configurable per-non-asset-type. - [x] Initial implementation of Reflect and FromReflect for Handle. The "deserialization" parity bar is low here as this only worked with static UUIDs in the old impl ... this is a non-trivial problem. Either we add a Handle::AssetPath variant that gets "upgraded" to a strong handle on scene load or we use a separate AssetRef type for Bevy scenes (which is converted to a runtime Handle on load). This deserves its own discussion in a different pr. - [x] Populate read_asset_bytes hash when run by the processor (a bit of a special case .. when run by the processor the processed meta will contain the hash so we don't need to compute it on the spot, but we don't want/need to read the meta when run by the main AssetServer) - [x] Delay hot reloading: currently filesystem events are handled immediately, which creates timing issues in some cases. For example hot reloading images can sometimes break because the image isn't finished writing. We should add a delay, likely similar to the [implementation in this PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8503). - [x] Port old platform-specific AssetIo implementations to the new AssetReader interface (currently missing Android and web) - [x] Resolve on_loaded unsafety (either by removing the API entirely or removing the unsafe) - [x] Runtime loader setting overrides - [x] Remove remaining unwraps that should be error-handled. There are number of TODOs here - [x] Pretty AssetPath Display impl - [x] Document more APIs - [x] Resolve spurious "reloading because it has changed" events (to repro run load_gltf with `processed_dev()`) - [x] load_dependency hot reloading currently only works for processed assets. If processing is disabled, load_dependency changes are not hot reloaded. - [x] Replace AssetInfo dependency load/fail counters with `loading_dependencies: HashSet<UntypedAssetId>` to prevent reloads from (potentially) breaking counters. Storing this will also enable "dependency reloaded" events (see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [x] Re-add filesystem watcher cargo feature gate (currently it is not optional) - [ ] Migration Guide - [ ] Changelog ## Followup TODO - [ ] Replace "eager unchanged processed asset loading" behavior with "don't returned unchanged processed asset until dependencies have been checked". - [ ] Add true `Ignore` AssetAction that does not copy the asset to the imported_assets folder. - [ ] Finish "live asset unloading" (ex: free up CPU asset memory after uploading an image to the GPU), rethink RenderAssets, and port renderer features. The `Assets` collection uses `Option<T>` for asset storage to support its removal. (1) the Option might not actually be necessary ... might be able to just remove from the collection entirely (2) need to finalize removal apis - [ ] Try replacing the "channel based" asset id recycling with something a bit more efficient (ex: we might be able to use raw atomic ints with some cleverness) - [ ] Consider adding UUIDs to processed assets (scoped just to helping identify moved assets ... not exposed to load queries ... see [Next Steps](#next-steps)) - [ ] Store "last modified" source asset and meta timestamps in processed meta files to enable skipping expensive hashing when the file wasn't changed - [ ] Fix "slow loop" handle drop fix - [ ] Migrate to TypeName - [x] Handle "loader preregistration". See #9429 ## Next Steps * **Configurable per-type defaults for AssetMeta**: It should be possible to add configuration like "all png image meta should default to using nearest sampling" (currently this hard-coded per-loader/processor Settings::default() impls). Also see the "Folder Meta" bullet point. * **Avoid Reprocessing on Asset Renames / Moves**: See the "canonical asset ids" discussion in [Open Questions](#open-questions) and the relevant bullet point in [Draft TODO](#draft-todo). Even without canonical ids, folder renames could avoid reprocessing in some cases. * **Multiple Asset Sources**: Expand AssetPath to support "asset source names" and support multiple AssetReaders in the asset server (ex: `webserver://some_path/image.png` backed by an Http webserver AssetReader). The "default" asset reader would use normal `some_path/image.png` paths. Ideally this works in combination with multiple AssetWatchers for hot-reloading * **Stable Type Names**: this pr removes the TypeUuid requirement from assets in favor of `std::any::type_name`. This makes defining assets easier (no need to generate a new uuid / use weird proc macro syntax). It also makes reading meta files easier (because things have "friendly names"). We also use type names for components in scene files. If they are good enough for components, they are good enough for assets. And consistency across Bevy pillars is desirable. However, `std::any::type_name` is not guaranteed to be stable (although in practice it is). We've developed a [stable type path](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7184) to resolve this, which should be adopted when it is ready. * **Command Line Interface**: It should be possible to run the asset processor in a separate process from the command line. This will also require building a network-server-backed AssetReader to communicate between the app and the processor. We've been planning to build a "bevy cli" for awhile. This seems like a good excuse to build it. * **Asset Packing**: This is largely an additive feature, so it made sense to me to punt this until we've laid the foundations in this PR. * **Per-Platform Processed Assets**: It should be possible to generate assets for multiple platforms by supporting multiple "processor profiles" per asset (ex: compress with format X on PC and Y on iOS). I think there should probably be arbitrary "profiles" (which can be separate from actual platforms), which are then assigned to a given platform when generating the final asset distribution for that platform. Ex: maybe devs want a "Mobile" profile that is shared between iOS and Android. Or a "LowEnd" profile shared between web and mobile. * **Versioning and Migrations**: Assets, Loaders, Savers, and Processors need to have versions to determine if their schema is valid. If an asset / loader version is incompatible with the current version expected at runtime, the processor should be able to migrate them. I think we should try using Bevy Reflect for this, as it would allow us to load the old version as a dynamic Reflect type without actually having the old Rust type. It would also allow us to define "patches" to migrate between versions (Bevy Reflect devs are currently working on patching). The `.meta` file already has its own format version. Migrating that to new versions should also be possible. * **Real Copy-on-write AssetPaths**: Rust's actual Cow (clone-on-write type) currently used by AssetPath can still result in String clones that aren't actually necessary (cloning an Owned Cow clones the contents). Bevy's asset system requires cloning AssetPaths in a number of places, which result in actual clones of the internal Strings. This is not efficient. AssetPath internals should be reworked to exhibit truer cow-like-behavior that reduces String clones to the absolute minimum. * **Consider processor-less processing**: In theory the AssetServer could run processors "inline" even if the background AssetProcessor is disabled. If we decide this is actually desirable, we could add this. But I don't think its a priority in the short or medium term. * **Pre-emptive dependency loading**: We could encode dependencies in processed meta files, which could then be used by the Asset Server to kick of dependency loads as early as possible (prior to starting the actual asset load). Is this desirable? How much time would this save in practice? * **Optimize Processor With UntypedAssetIds**: The processor exclusively uses AssetPath to identify assets currently. It might be possible to swap these out for UntypedAssetIds in some places, which are smaller / cheaper to hash and compare. * **One to Many Asset Processing**: An asset source file that produces many assets currently must be processed into a single "processed" asset source. If labeled assets can be written separately they can each have their own configured savers _and_ they could be loaded more granularly. Definitely worth exploring! * **Automatically Track "Runtime-only" Asset Dependencies**: Right now, tracking "created at runtime" asset dependencies requires adding them via `asset_server.load_asset(StandardMaterial::default())`. I think with some cleverness we could also do this for `materials.add(StandardMaterial::default())`, making tracking work "everywhere". There are challenges here relating to change detection / ensuring the server is made aware of dependency changes. This could be expensive in some cases. * **"Dependency Changed" events**: Some assets have runtime artifacts that need to be re-generated when one of their dependencies change (ex: regenerate a material's bind group when a Texture needs to change). We are generating the dependency graph so we can definitely produce these events. Buuuuut generating these events will have a cost / they could be high frequency for some assets, so we might want this to be opt-in for specific cases. * **Investigate Storing More Information In Handles**: Handles can now store arbitrary information, which makes it cheaper and easier to access. How much should we move into them? Canonical asset load states (via atomics)? (`handle.is_loaded()` would be very cool). Should we store the entire asset and remove the `Assets<T>` collection? (`Arc<RwLock<Option<Image>>>`?) * **Support processing and loading files without extensions**: This is a pretty arbitrary restriction and could be supported with very minimal changes. * **Folder Meta**: It would be nice if we could define per folder processor configuration defaults (likely in a `.meta` or `.folder_meta` file). Things like "default to linear filtering for all Images in this folder". * **Replace async_broadcast with event-listener?** This might be approximately drop-in for some uses and it feels more light weight * **Support Running the AssetProcessor on the Web**: Most of the hard work is done here, but there are some easy straggling TODOs (make the transaction log an interface instead of a direct file writer so we can write a web storage backend, implement an AssetReader/AssetWriter that reads/writes to something like LocalStorage). * **Consider identifying and preventing circular dependencies**: This is especially important for "processor dependencies", as processing will silently never finish in these cases. * **Built-in/Inlined Asset Hot Reloading**: This PR regresses "built-in/inlined" asset hot reloading (previously provided by the DebugAssetServer). I'm intentionally punting this because I think it can be cleanly implemented with "multiple asset sources" by registering a "debug asset source" (ex: `debug://bevy_pbr/src/render/pbr.wgsl` asset paths) in combination with an AssetWatcher for that asset source and support for "manually loading pats with asset bytes instead of AssetReaders". The old DebugAssetServer was quite nasty and I'd love to avoid that hackery going forward. * **Investigate ways to remove double-parsing meta files**: Parsing meta files currently involves parsing once with "minimal" versions of the meta file to extract the type name of the loader/processor config, then parsing again to parse the "full" meta. This is suboptimal. We should be able to define custom deserializers that (1) assume the loader/processor type name comes first (2) dynamically looks up the loader/processor registrations to deserialize settings in-line (similar to components in the bevy scene format). Another alternative: deserialize as dynamic Reflect objects and then convert. * **More runtime loading configuration**: Support using the Handle type as a hint to select an asset loader (instead of relying on AssetPath extensions) * **More high level Processor trait implementations**: For example, it might be worth adding support for arbitrary chains of "asset transforms" that modify an in-memory asset representation between loading and saving. (ex: load a Mesh, run a `subdivide_mesh` transform, followed by a `flip_normals` transform, then save the mesh to an efficient compressed format). * **Bevy Scene Handle Deserialization**: (see the relevant [Draft TODO item](#draft-todo) for context) * **Explore High Level Load Interfaces**: See [this discussion](#discuss-on_loaded-high-level-interface) for one prototype. * **Asset Streaming**: It would be great if we could stream Assets (ex: stream a long video file piece by piece) * **ID Exchanging**: In this PR Asset Handles/AssetIds are bigger than they need to be because they have a Uuid enum variant. If we implement an "id exchanging" system that trades Uuids for "efficient runtime ids", we can cut down on the size of AssetIds, making them more efficient. This has some open design questions, such as how to spawn entities with "default" handle values (as these wouldn't have access to the exchange api in the current system). * **Asset Path Fixup Tooling**: Assets that inline asset paths inside them will break when an asset moves. The asset system provides the functionality to detect when paths break. We should build a framework that enables formats to define "path migrations". This is especially important for scene files. For editor-generated files, we should also consider using UUIDs (see other bullet point) to avoid the need to migrate in these cases. --------- Co-authored-by: BeastLe9enD <beastle9end@outlook.de> Co-authored-by: Mike <mike.hsu@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Nicola Papale <nicopap@users.noreply.github.com>

Component Lifecycle Hooks and a Deferred World (#10756) # Objective - Provide a reliable and performant mechanism to allows users to keep components synchronized with external sources: closing/opening sockets, updating indexes, debugging etc. - Implement a generic mechanism to provide mutable access to the world without allowing structural changes; this will not only be used here but is a foundational piece for observers, which are key for a performant implementation of relations. ## Solution - Implement a new type `DeferredWorld` (naming is not important, `StaticWorld` is also suitable) that wraps a world pointer and prevents user code from making any structural changes to the ECS; spawning entities, creating components, initializing resources etc. - Add component lifecycle hooks `on_add`, `on_insert` and `on_remove` that can be assigned callbacks in user code. --- ## Changelog - Add new `DeferredWorld` type. - Add new world methods: `register_component::<T>` and `register_component_with_descriptor`. These differ from `init_component` in that they provide mutable access to the created `ComponentInfo` but will panic if the component is already in any archetypes. These restrictions serve two purposes: 1. Prevent users from defining hooks for components that may already have associated hooks provided in another plugin. (a use case better served by observers) 2. Ensure that when an `Archetype` is created it gets the appropriate flags to early-out when triggering hooks. - Add methods to `ComponentInfo`: `on_add`, `on_insert` and `on_remove` to be used to register hooks of the form `fn(DeferredWorld, Entity, ComponentId)` - Modify `BundleInserter`, `BundleSpawner` and `EntityWorldMut` to trigger component hooks when appropriate. - Add bit flags to `Archetype` indicating whether or not any contained components have each type of hook, this can be expanded for other flags as needed. - Add `component_hooks` example to illustrate usage. Try it out! It's fun to mash keys. ## Safety The changes to component insertion, removal and deletion involve a large amount of unsafe code and it's fair for that to raise some concern. I have attempted to document it as clearly as possible and have confirmed that all the hooks examples are accepted by `cargo miri` as not causing any undefined behavior. The largest issue is in ensuring there are no outstanding references when passing a `DeferredWorld` to the hooks which requires some use of raw pointers (as was already happening to some degree in those places) and I have taken some time to ensure that is the case but feel free to let me know if I've missed anything. ## Performance These changes come with a small but measurable performance cost of between 1-5% on `add_remove` benchmarks and between 1-3% on `insert` benchmarks. One consideration to be made is the existence of the current `RemovedComponents` which is on average more costly than the addition of `on_remove` hooks due to the early-out, however hooks doesn't completely remove the need for `RemovedComponents` as there is a chance you want to respond to the removal of a component that already has an `on_remove` hook defined in another plugin, so I have not removed it here. I do intend to deprecate it with the introduction of observers in a follow up PR. ## Discussion Questions - Currently `DeferredWorld` implements `Deref` to `&World` which makes sense conceptually, however it does cause some issues with rust-analyzer providing autocomplete for `&mut World` references which is annoying. There are alternative implementations that may address this but involve more code churn so I have attempted them here. The other alternative is to not implement `Deref` at all but that leads to a large amount of API duplication. - `DeferredWorld`, `StaticWorld`, something else? - In adding support for hooks to `EntityWorldMut` I encountered some unfortunate difficulties with my desired API. If commands are flushed after each call i.e. `world.spawn() // flush commands .insert(A) // flush commands` the entity may be despawned while `EntityWorldMut` still exists which is invalid. An alternative was then to add `self.world.flush_commands()` to the drop implementation for `EntityWorldMut` but that runs into other problems for implementing functions like `into_unsafe_entity_cell`. For now I have implemented a `.flush()` which will flush the commands and consume `EntityWorldMut` or users can manually run `world.flush_commands()` after using `EntityWorldMut`. - In order to allowing querying on a deferred world we need implementations of `WorldQuery` to not break our guarantees of no structural changes through their `UnsafeWorldCell`. All our implementations do this, but there isn't currently any safety documentation specifying what is or isn't allowed for an implementation, just for the caller, (they also shouldn't be aliasing components they didn't specify access for etc.) is that something we should start doing? (see 10752) Please check out the example `component_hooks` or the tests in `bundle.rs` for usage examples. I will continue to expand this description as I go. See #10839 for a more ergonomic API built on top of this one that isn't subject to the same restrictions and supports `SystemParam` dependency injection.

Dynamic queries and builder API (#9774) # Objective Expand the existing `Query` API to support more dynamic use cases i.e. scripting. ## Prior Art - #6390 - #8308 - #10037 ## Solution - Create a `QueryBuilder` with runtime methods to define the set of component accesses for a built query. - Create new `WorldQueryData` implementations `FilteredEntityMut` and `FilteredEntityRef` as variants of `EntityMut` and `EntityRef` that provide run time checked access to the components included in a given query. - Add new methods to `Query` to create "query lens" with a subset of the access of the initial query. ### Query Builder The `QueryBuilder` API allows you to define a query at runtime. At it's most basic use it will simply create a query with the corresponding type signature: ```rust let query = QueryBuilder::<Entity, With<A>>::new(&mut world).build(); // is equivalent to let query = QueryState::<Entity, With<A>>::new(&mut world); ``` Before calling `.build()` you also have the opportunity to add additional accesses and filters. Here is a simple example where we add additional filter terms: ```rust let entity_a = world.spawn((A(0), B(0))).id(); let entity_b = world.spawn((A(0), C(0))).id(); let mut query_a = QueryBuilder::<Entity>::new(&mut world) .with::<A>() .without::<C>() .build(); assert_eq!(entity_a, query_a.single(&world)); ``` This alone is useful in that allows you to decide which archetypes your query will match at runtime. However it is also very limited, consider a case like the following: ```rust let query_a = QueryBuilder::<&A>::new(&mut world) // Add an additional access .data::<&B>() .build(); ``` This will grant the query an additional read access to component B however we have no way of accessing the data while iterating as the type signature still only includes &A. For an even more concrete example of this consider dynamic components: ```rust let query_a = QueryBuilder::<Entity>::new(&mut world) // Adding a filter is easy since it doesn't need be read later .with_id(component_id_a) // How do I access the data of this component? .ref_id(component_id_b) .build(); ``` With this in mind the `QueryBuilder` API seems somewhat incomplete by itself, we need some way method of accessing the components dynamically. So here's one: ### Query Transmutation If the problem is not having the component in the type signature why not just add it? This PR also adds transmute methods to `QueryBuilder` and `QueryState`. Here's a simple example: ```rust world.spawn(A(0)); world.spawn((A(1), B(0))); let mut query = QueryBuilder::<()>::new(&mut world) .with::<B>() .transmute::<&A>() .build(); query.iter(&world).for_each(|a| assert_eq!(a.0, 1)); ``` The `QueryState` and `QueryBuilder` transmute methods look quite similar but are different in one respect. Transmuting a builder will always succeed as it will just add the additional accesses needed for the new terms if they weren't already included. Transmuting a `QueryState` will panic in the case that the new type signature would give it access it didn't already have, for example: ```rust let query = QueryState::<&A, Option<&B>>::new(&mut world); /// This is fine, the access for Option<&A> is less restrictive than &A query.transmute::<Option<&A>>(&world); /// Oh no, this would allow access to &B on entities that might not have it, so it panics query.transmute::<&B>(&world); /// This is right out query.transmute::<&C>(&world); ``` This is quite an appealing API to also have available on `Query` however it does pose one additional wrinkle: In order to to change the iterator we need to create a new `QueryState` to back it. `Query` doesn't own it's own state though, it just borrows it, so we need a place to borrow it from. This is why `QueryLens` exists, it is a place to store the new state so it can be borrowed when you call `.query()` leaving you with an API like this: ```rust fn function_that_takes_a_query(query: &Query<&A>) { // ... } fn system(query: Query<(&A, &B)>) { let lens = query.transmute_lens::<&A>(); let q = lens.query(); function_that_takes_a_query(&q); } ``` Now you may be thinking: Hey, wait a second, you introduced the problem with dynamic components and then described a solution that only works for static components! Ok, you got me, I guess we need a bit more: ### Filtered Entity References Currently the only way you can access dynamic components on entities through a query is with either `EntityMut` or `EntityRef`, however these can access all components and so conflict with all other accesses. This PR introduces `FilteredEntityMut` and `FilteredEntityRef` as alternatives that have additional runtime checking to prevent accessing components that you shouldn't. This way you can build a query with a `QueryBuilder` and actually access the components you asked for: ```rust let mut query = QueryBuilder::<FilteredEntityRef>::new(&mut world) .ref_id(component_id_a) .with(component_id_b) .build(); let entity_ref = query.single(&world); // Returns Some(Ptr) as we have that component and are allowed to read it let a = entity_ref.get_by_id(component_id_a); // Will return None even though the entity does have the component, as we are not allowed to read it let b = entity_ref.get_by_id(component_id_b); ``` For the most part these new structs have the exact same methods as their non-filtered equivalents. Putting all of this together we can do some truly dynamic ECS queries, check out the `dynamic` example to see it in action: ``` Commands: comp, c Create new components spawn, s Spawn entities query, q Query for entities Enter a command with no parameters for usage. > c A, B, C, Data 4 Component A created with id: 0 Component B created with id: 1 Component C created with id: 2 Component Data created with id: 3 > s A, B, Data 1 Entity spawned with id: 0v0 > s A, C, Data 0 Entity spawned with id: 1v0 > q &Data 0v0: Data: [1, 0, 0, 0] 1v0: Data: [0, 0, 0, 0] > q B, &mut Data 0v0: Data: [2, 1, 1, 1] > q B || C, &Data 0v0: Data: [2, 1, 1, 1] 1v0: Data: [0, 0, 0, 0] ``` ## Changelog - Add new `transmute_lens` methods to `Query`. - Add new types `QueryBuilder`, `FilteredEntityMut`, `FilteredEntityRef` and `QueryLens` - `update_archetype_component_access` has been removed, archetype component accesses are now determined by the accesses set in `update_component_access` - Added method `set_access` to `WorldQuery`, this is called before `update_component_access` for queries that have a restricted set of accesses, such as those built by `QueryBuilder` or `QueryLens`. This is primarily used by the `FilteredEntity*` variants and has an empty trait implementation. - Added method `get_state` to `WorldQuery` as a fallible version of `init_state` when you don't have `&mut World` access. ## Future Work Improve performance of `FilteredEntityMut` and `FilteredEntityRef`, currently they have to determine the accesses a query has in a given archetype during iteration which is far from ideal, especially since we already did the work when matching the archetype in the first place. To avoid making more internal API changes I have left it out of this PR. --------- Co-authored-by: Mike Hsu <mike.hsu@gmail.com>

One Shot Systems (#8963) I'm adopting this ~~child~~ PR. # Objective - Working with exclusive world access is not always easy: in many cases, a standard system or three is more ergonomic to write, and more modularly maintainable. - For small, one-off tasks (commonly handled with scripting), running an event-reader system incurs a small but flat overhead cost and muddies the schedule. - Certain forms of logic (e.g. turn-based games) want very fine-grained linear and/or branching control over logic. - SystemState is not automatically cached, and so performance can suffer and change detection breaks. - Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/2192. - Partial workaround for https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/279. ## Solution - Adds a SystemRegistry resource to the World, which stores initialized systems keyed by their SystemSet. - Allows users to call world.run_system(my_system) and commands.run_system(my_system), without re-initializing or losing state (essential for change detection). - Add a Callback type to enable convenient use of dynamic one shot systems and reduce the mental overhead of working with Box<dyn SystemSet>. - Allow users to run systems based on their SystemSet, enabling more complex user-made abstractions. ## Future work - Parameterized one-shot systems would improve reusability and bring them closer to events and commands. The API could be something like run_system_with_input(my_system, my_input) and use the In SystemParam. - We should evaluate the unification of commands and one-shot systems since they are two different ways to run logic on demand over a World. ### Prior attempts - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2234 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2417 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4090 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7999 This PR continues the work done in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7999. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Federico Rinaldi <gisquerin@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: MinerSebas <66798382+MinerSebas@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Aevyrie <aevyrie@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Alejandro Pascual Pozo <alejandro.pascual.pozo@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Rob Parrett <robparrett@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Dmytro Banin <banind@cs.washington.edu> Co-authored-by: James Liu <contact@jamessliu.com>

Migrate engine to Schedule v3 (#7267) Huge thanks to @maniwani, @devil-ira, @hymm, @cart, @superdump and @jakobhellermann for the help with this PR. # Objective - Followup #6587. - Minimal integration for the Stageless Scheduling RFC: https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/45 ## Solution - [x] Remove old scheduling module - [x] Migrate new methods to no longer use extension methods - [x] Fix compiler errors - [x] Fix benchmarks - [x] Fix examples - [x] Fix docs - [x] Fix tests ## Changelog ### Added - a large number of methods on `App` to work with schedules ergonomically - the `CoreSchedule` enum - `App::add_extract_system` via the `RenderingAppExtension` trait extension method - the private `prepare_view_uniforms` system now has a public system set for scheduling purposes, called `ViewSet::PrepareUniforms` ### Removed - stages, and all code that mentions stages - states have been dramatically simplified, and no longer use a stack - `RunCriteriaLabel` - `AsSystemLabel` trait - `on_hierarchy_reports_enabled` run criteria (now just uses an ad hoc resource checking run condition) - systems in `RenderSet/Stage::Extract` no longer warn when they do not read data from the main world - `RunCriteriaLabel` - `transform_propagate_system_set`: this was a nonstandard pattern that didn't actually provide enough control. The systems are already `pub`: the docs have been updated to ensure that the third-party usage is clear. ### Changed - `System::default_labels` is now `System::default_system_sets`. - `App::add_default_labels` is now `App::add_default_sets` - `CoreStage` and `StartupStage` enums are now `CoreSet` and `StartupSet` - `App::add_system_set` was renamed to `App::add_systems` - The `StartupSchedule` label is now defined as part of the `CoreSchedules` enum - `.label(SystemLabel)` is now referred to as `.in_set(SystemSet)` - `SystemLabel` trait was replaced by `SystemSet` - `SystemTypeIdLabel<T>` was replaced by `SystemSetType<T>` - The `ReportHierarchyIssue` resource now has a public constructor (`new`), and implements `PartialEq` - Fixed time steps now use a schedule (`CoreSchedule::FixedTimeStep`) rather than a run criteria. - Adding rendering extraction systems now panics rather than silently failing if no subapp with the `RenderApp` label is found. - the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied. - `SceneSpawnerSystem` now runs under `CoreSet::Update`, rather than `CoreStage::PreUpdate.at_end()`. - `bevy_pbr::add_clusters` is no longer an exclusive system - the top level `bevy_ecs::schedule` module was replaced with `bevy_ecs::scheduling` - `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` is no longer run as an exclusive system. Instead, it has been replaced by `tick_global_task_pools`, which uses a `NonSend` resource to force running on the main thread. ## Migration Guide - Calls to `.label(MyLabel)` should be replaced with `.in_set(MySet)` - Stages have been removed. Replace these with system sets, and then add command flushes using the `apply_system_buffers` exclusive system where needed. - The `CoreStage`, `StartupStage, `RenderStage` and `AssetStage` enums have been replaced with `CoreSet`, `StartupSet, `RenderSet` and `AssetSet`. The same scheduling guarantees have been preserved. - Systems are no longer added to `CoreSet::Update` by default. Add systems manually if this behavior is needed, although you should consider adding your game logic systems to `CoreSchedule::FixedTimestep` instead for more reliable framerate-independent behavior. - Similarly, startup systems are no longer part of `StartupSet::Startup` by default. In most cases, this won't matter to you. - For example, `add_system_to_stage(CoreStage::PostUpdate, my_system)` should be replaced with - `add_system(my_system.in_set(CoreSet::PostUpdate)` - When testing systems or otherwise running them in a headless fashion, simply construct and run a schedule using `Schedule::new()` and `World::run_schedule` rather than constructing stages - Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions. These can now be combined with each other and with states. - Looping run criteria and state stacks have been removed. Use an exclusive system that runs a schedule if you need this level of control over system control flow. - For app-level control flow over which schedules get run when (such as for rollback networking), create your own schedule and insert it under the `CoreSchedule::Outer` label. - Fixed timesteps are now evaluated in a schedule, rather than controlled via run criteria. The `run_fixed_timestep` system runs this schedule between `CoreSet::First` and `CoreSet::PreUpdate` by default. - Command flush points introduced by `AssetStage` have been removed. If you were relying on these, add them back manually. - Adding extract systems is now typically done directly on the main app. Make sure the `RenderingAppExtension` trait is in scope, then call `app.add_extract_system(my_system)`. - the `calculate_bounds` system, with the `CalculateBounds` label, is now in `CoreSet::Update`, rather than in `CoreSet::PostUpdate` before commands are applied. You may need to order your movement systems to occur before this system in order to avoid system order ambiguities in culling behavior. - the `RenderLabel` `AppLabel` was renamed to `RenderApp` for clarity - `App::add_state` now takes 0 arguments: the starting state is set based on the `Default` impl. - Instead of creating `SystemSet` containers for systems that run in stages, simply use `.on_enter::<State::Variant>()` or its `on_exit` or `on_update` siblings. - `SystemLabel` derives should be replaced with `SystemSet`. You will also need to add the `Debug`, `PartialEq`, `Eq`, and `Hash` traits to satisfy the new trait bounds. - `with_run_criteria` has been renamed to `run_if`. Run criteria have been renamed to run conditions for clarity, and should now simply return a bool. - States have been dramatically simplified: there is no longer a "state stack". To queue a transition to the next state, call `NextState::set` ## TODO - [x] remove dead methods on App and World - [x] add `App::add_system_to_schedule` and `App::add_systems_to_schedule` - [x] avoid adding the default system set at inappropriate times - [x] remove any accidental cycles in the default plugins schedule - [x] migrate benchmarks - [x] expose explicit labels for the built-in command flush points - [x] migrate engine code - [x] remove all mentions of stages from the docs - [x] verify docs for States - [x] fix uses of exclusive systems that use .end / .at_start / .before_commands - [x] migrate RenderStage and AssetStage - [x] migrate examples - [x] ensure that transform propagation is exported in a sufficiently public way (the systems are already pub) - [x] ensure that on_enter schedules are run at least once before the main app - [x] re-enable opt-in to execution order ambiguities - [x] revert change to `update_bounds` to ensure it runs in `PostUpdate` - [x] test all examples - [x] unbreak directional lights - [x] unbreak shadows (see 3d_scene, 3d_shape, lighting, transparaency_3d examples) - [x] game menu example shows loading screen and menu simultaneously - [x] display settings menu is a blank screen - [x] `without_winit` example panics - [x] ensure all tests pass - [x] SubApp doc test fails - [x] runs_spawn_local tasks fails - [x] [Fix panic_when_hierachy_cycle test hanging](https://github.com/alice-i-cecile/bevy/pull/120) ## Points of Difficulty and Controversy **Reviewers, please give feedback on these and look closely** 1. Default sets, from the RFC, have been removed. These added a tremendous amount of implicit complexity and result in hard to debug scheduling errors. They're going to be tackled in the form of "base sets" by @cart in a followup. 2. The outer schedule controls which schedule is run when `App::update` is called. 3. I implemented `Label for `Box<dyn Label>` for our label types. This enables us to store schedule labels in concrete form, and then later run them. I ran into the same set of problems when working with one-shot systems. We've previously investigated this pattern in depth, and it does not appear to lead to extra indirection with nested boxes. 4. `SubApp::update` simply runs the default schedule once. This sucks, but this whole API is incomplete and this was the minimal changeset. 5. `time_system` and `tick_global_task_pools_on_main_thread` no longer use exclusive systems to attempt to force scheduling order 6. Implemetnation strategy for fixed timesteps 7. `AssetStage` was migrated to `AssetSet` without reintroducing command flush points. These did not appear to be used, and it's nice to remove these bottlenecks. 8. Migration of `bevy_render/lib.rs` and pipelined rendering. The logic here is unusually tricky, as we have complex scheduling requirements. ## Future Work (ideally before 0.10) - Rename schedule_v3 module to schedule or scheduling - Add a derive macro to states, and likely a `EnumIter` trait of some form - Figure out what exactly to do with the "systems added should basically work by default" problem - Improve ergonomics for working with fixed timesteps and states - Polish FixedTime API to match Time - Rebase and merge #7415 - Resolve all internal ambiguities (blocked on better tools, especially #7442) - Add "base sets" to replace the removed default sets.

Computed State & Sub States (#11426) ## Summary/Description This PR extends states to allow support for a wider variety of state types and patterns, by providing 3 distinct types of state: - Standard [`States`] can only be changed by manually setting the [`NextState<S>`] resource.

While my previous attempts (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10088 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9957) relied on complex matching capacities at the point of adding a system to application, this one instead relies on deterministically deriving simple states from more complex ones. As a result, it does not require any special macros, nor does it change any other interactions with the state system once you define and add your derived state. It also maintains a degree of distinction between `State` and just normal application state - your derivations have to end up being discreet pre-determined values, meaning there is less of a risk/temptation to place a significant amount of logic and data within a given state. ### Addition - Sub States closes #9942 After some conversation with Maintainers & SMEs, a significant concern was that people might attempt to use this feature as if it were sub-states, and find themselves unable to use it appropriately. Since `ComputedState` is mainly a state matching feature, while `SubStates` are more of a state mutation related feature - but one that is easy to add with the help of the machinery introduced by `ComputedState`, it was added here as well. The relevant discussion is here: https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1200556329803186316 ## Solution closes #11358 The solution is to create a new type of state - one implementing `ComputedStates` - which is deterministically tied to one or more other states. Implementors write a function to transform the source states into the computed state, and it gets triggered whenever one of the source states changes. In addition, we added the `FreelyMutableState` trait , which is implemented as part of the derive macro for `States`. This allows us to limit use of `NextState<S>` to states that are actually mutable, preventing mis-use of `ComputedStates`. --- ## Changelog - Added `ComputedStates` trait - Added `FreelyMutableState` trait - Converted `NextState` resource to an Enum, with `Unchanged` and `Pending` - Added `App::add_computed_state::<S: ComputedStates>()`, to allow for easily adding derived states to an App. - Moved the `StateTransition` schedule label from `bevy_app` to `bevy_ecs` - but maintained the export in `bevy_app` for continuity. - Modified the process for updating states. Instead of just having an `apply_state_transition` system that can be added anywhere, we now have a multi-stage process that has to run within the `StateTransition` label. First, all the state changes are calculated - manual transitions rely on `apply_state_transition`, while computed transitions run their computation process before both call `internal_apply_state_transition` to apply the transition, send out the transition event, trigger dependent states, and record which exit/transition/enter schedules need to occur. Once all the states have been updated, the transition schedules are called - first the exit schedules, then transition schedules and finally enter schedules. - Added `SubStates` trait - Adjusted `apply_state_transition` to be a no-op if the `State<S>` resource doesn't exist ## Migration Guide If the user accessed the NextState resource's value directly or created them from scratch they will need to adjust to use the new enum variants: - if they created a `NextState(Some(S))` - they should now use `NextState::Pending(S)` - if they created a `NextState(None)` -they should now use `NextState::Unchanged` - if they matched on the `NextState` value, they would need to make the adjustments above If the user manually utilized `apply_state_transition`, they should instead use systems that trigger the `StateTransition` schedule. --- ## Future Work There is still some future potential work in the area, but I wanted to keep these potential features and changes separate to keep the scope here contained, and keep the core of it easy to understand and use. However, I do want to note some of these things, both as inspiration to others and an illustration of what this PR could unlock. - `NextState::Remove` - Now that the `State` related mechanisms all utilize options (#11417), it's fairly easy to add support for explicit state removal. And while `ComputedStates` can add and remove themselves, right now `FreelyMutableState`s can't be removed from within the state system. While it existed originally in this PR, it is a different question with a separate scope and usability concerns - so having it as it's own future PR seems like the best approach. This feature currently lives in a separate branch in my fork, and the differences between it and this PR can be seen here: https://github.com/lee-orr/bevy/pull/5 - `NextState::ReEnter` - this would allow you to trigger exit & entry systems for the current state type. We can potentially also add a `NextState::ReEnterRecirsive` to also re-trigger any states that depend on the current one. - More mechanisms for `State` updates - This PR would finally make states that aren't a set of exclusive Enums useful, and with that comes the question of setting state more effectively. Right now, to update a state you either need to fully create the new state, or include the `Res<Option<State<S>>>` resource in your system, clone the state, mutate it, and then use `NextState.set(my_mutated_state)` to make it the pending next state. There are a few other potential methods that could be implemented in future PRs: - Inverse Compute States - these would essentially be compute states that have an additional (manually defined) function that can be used to nudge the source states so that they result in the computed states having a given value. For example, you could use set the `IsPaused` state, and it would attempt to pause or unpause the game by modifying the `AppState` as needed. - Closure-based state modification - this would involve adding a `NextState.modify(f: impl Fn(Option<S> -> Option<S>)` method, and then you can pass in closures or function pointers to adjust the state as needed. - Message-based state modification - this would involve either creating states that can respond to specific messages, similar to Elm or Redux. These could either use the `NextState` mechanism or the Event mechanism. - ~`SubStates` - which are essentially a hybrid of computed and manual states. In the simplest (and most likely) version, they would work by having a computed element that determines whether the state should exist, and if it should has the capacity to add a new version in, but then any changes to it's content would be freely mutated.~ this feature is now part of this PR. See above. - Lastly, since states are getting more complex there might be value in moving them out of `bevy_ecs` and into their own crate, or at least out of the `schedule` module into a `states` module. #11087 As mentioned, all these future work elements are TBD and are explicitly not part of this PR - I just wanted to provide them as potential explorations for the future. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Marcel Champagne <voiceofmarcel@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: MiniaczQ <xnetroidpl@gmail.com>

For example, you could use set the `IsPaused` state, and it would attempt to pause or unpause the game by modifying the `AppState` as needed. - Closure-based state modification - this would involve adding a `NextState.modify(f: impl Fn(Option<S> -> Option<S>)` method, and then you can pass in closures or function pointers to adjust the state as needed. - Message-based state modification - this would involve either creating states that can respond to specific messages, similar to Elm or Redux. These could either use the `NextState` mechanism or the Event mechanism. - ~`SubStates` - which are essentially a hybrid of computed and manual states. In the simplest (and most likely) version, they would work by having a computed element that determines whether the state should exist, and if it should has the capacity to add a new version in, but then any changes to it's content would be freely mutated.~ this feature is now part of this PR. See above. - Lastly, since states are getting more complex there might be value in moving them out of `bevy_ecs` and into their own crate, or at least out of the `schedule` module into a `states` module. #11087 As mentioned, all these future work elements are TBD and are explicitly not part of this PR - I just wanted to provide them as potential explorations for the future. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Marcel Champagne <voiceofmarcel@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: MiniaczQ <xnetroidpl@gmail.com>

Computed State & Sub States (#11426) ## Summary/Description This PR extends states to allow support for a wider variety of state types and patterns, by providing 3 distinct types of state: - Standard [`States`] can only be changed by manually setting the [`NextState<S>`] resource. These states are the baseline on which the other state types are built, and can be used on their own for many simple patterns. See the [state example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/latest/examples/ecs/state.rs) for a simple use case - these are the states that existed so far in Bevy. - [`SubStates`] are children of other states - they can be changed manually using [`NextState<S>`], but are removed from the [`World`] if the source states aren't in the right state. See the [sub_states example](https://github.com/lee-orr/bevy/blob/derived_state/examples/ecs/sub_states.rs) for a simple use case based on the derive macro, or read the trait docs for more complex scenarios. - [`ComputedStates`] are fully derived from other states - they provide a [`compute`](ComputedStates::compute) method that takes in the source states and returns their derived value. They are particularly useful for situations where a simplified view of the source states is necessary - such as having an `InAMenu` computed state derived from a source state that defines multiple distinct menus. See the [computed state example](https://github.com/lee-orr/bevy/blob/derived_state/examples/ecs/computed_states.rscomputed_states.rs) to see a sampling of uses for these states. # Objective This PR is another attempt at allowing Bevy to better handle complex state objects in a manner that doesn't rely on strict equality. While my previous attempts (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10088 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/9957) relied on complex matching capacities at the point of adding a system to application, this one instead relies on deterministically deriving simple states from more complex ones. As a result, it does not require any special macros, nor does it change any other interactions with the state system once you define and add your derived state. It also maintains a degree of distinction between `State` and just normal application state - your derivations have to end up being discreet pre-determined values, meaning there is less of a risk/temptation to place a significant amount of logic and data within a given state. ### Addition - Sub States closes #9942 After some conversation with Maintainers & SMEs, a significant concern was that people might attempt to use this feature as if it were sub-states, and find themselves unable to use it appropriately. Since `ComputedState` is mainly a state matching feature, while `SubStates` are more of a state mutation related feature - but one that is easy to add with the help of the machinery introduced by `ComputedState`, it was added here as well. The relevant discussion is here: https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1200556329803186316 ## Solution closes #11358 The solution is to create a new type of state - one implementing `ComputedStates` - which is deterministically tied to one or more other states. Implementors write a function to transform the source states into the computed state, and it gets triggered whenever one of the source states changes. In addition, we added the `FreelyMutableState` trait , which is implemented as part of the derive macro for `States`. This allows us to limit use of `NextState<S>` to states that are actually mutable, preventing mis-use of `ComputedStates`. --- ## Changelog - Added `ComputedStates` trait - Added `FreelyMutableState` trait - Converted `NextState` resource to an Enum, with `Unchanged` and `Pending` - Added `App::add_computed_state::<S: ComputedStates>()`, to allow for easily adding derived states to an App. - Moved the `StateTransition` schedule label from `bevy_app` to `bevy_ecs` - but maintained the export in `bevy_app` for continuity. - Modified the process for updating states. Instead of just having an `apply_state_transition` system that can be added anywhere, we now have a multi-stage process that has to run within the `StateTransition` label. First, all the state changes are calculated - manual transitions rely on `apply_state_transition`, while computed transitions run their computation process before both call `internal_apply_state_transition` to apply the transition, send out the transition event, trigger dependent states, and record which exit/transition/enter schedules need to occur. Once all the states have been updated, the transition schedules are called - first the exit schedules, then transition schedules and finally enter schedules. - Added `SubStates` trait - Adjusted `apply_state_transition` to be a no-op if the `State<S>` resource doesn't exist ## Migration Guide If the user accessed the NextState resource's value directly or created them from scratch they will need to adjust to use the new enum variants: - if they created a `NextState(Some(S))` - they should now use `NextState::Pending(S)` - if they created a `NextState(None)` -they should now use `NextState::Unchanged` - if they matched on the `NextState` value, they would need to make the adjustments above If the user manually utilized `apply_state_transition`, they should instead use systems that trigger the `StateTransition` schedule. --- ## Future Work There is still some future potential work in the area, but I wanted to keep these potential features and changes separate to keep the scope here contained, and keep the core of it easy to understand and use. However, I do want to note some of these things, both as inspiration to others and an illustration of what this PR could unlock. - `NextState::Remove` - Now that the `State` related mechanisms all utilize options (#11417), it's fairly easy to add support for explicit state removal. And while `ComputedStates` can add and remove themselves, right now `FreelyMutableState`s can't be removed from within the state system. While it existed originally in this PR, it is a different question with a separate scope and usability concerns - so having it as it's own future PR seems like the best approach. This feature currently lives in a separate branch in my fork, and the differences between it and this PR can be seen here: https://github.com/lee-orr/bevy/pull/5 - `NextState::ReEnter` - this would allow you to trigger exit & entry systems for the current state type.

System Stepping implemented as Resource (#8453) # Objective Add interactive system debugging capabilities to bevy, providing step/break/continue style capabilities to running system schedules. * Original implementation: #8063 - `ignore_stepping()` everywhere was too much complexity * Schedule-config & Resource discussion: #8168 - Decided on selective adding of Schedules & Resource-based control ## Solution Created `Stepping` Resource. This resource can be used to enable stepping on a per-schedule basis. Systems within schedules can be individually configured to: * AlwaysRun: Ignore any stepping state and run every frame * NeverRun: Never run while stepping is enabled - this allows for disabling of systems while debugging * Break: If we're running the full frame, stop before this system is run Stepping provides two modes of execution that reflect traditional debuggers: * Step-based: Only execute one system at a time * Continue/Break: Run all systems, but stop before running a system marked as Break ### Demo https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/857742/233630981-99f3bbda-9ca6-4cc4-a00f-171c4946dc47.mov Breakout has been modified to use Stepping. The game runs normally for a couple of seconds, then stepping is enabled and the game appears to pause. A list of Schedules & Systems appears with a cursor at the first System in the list. The demo then steps forward full frames using the spacebar until the ball is about to hit a brick. Then we step system by system as the ball impacts a brick, showing the cursor moving through the individual systems. Finally the demo switches back to frame stepping as the ball changes course. ### Limitations Due to architectural constraints in bevy, there are some cases systems stepping will not function as a user would expect. #### Event-driven systems Stepping does not support systems that are driven by `Event`s as events are flushed after 1-2 frames. Although game systems are not running while stepping, ignored systems are still running every frame, so events will be flushed. This presents to the user as stepping the event-driven system never executes the system. It does execute, but the events have already been flushed. This can be resolved by changing event handling to use a buffer for events, and only dropping an event once all readers have read it. The work-around to allow these systems to properly execute during stepping is to have them ignore stepping: `app.add_systems(event_driven_system.ignore_stepping())`. This was done in the breakout example to ensure sound played even while stepping. #### Conditional Systems When a system is stepped, it is given an opportunity to run. If the conditions of the system say it should not run, it will not. Similar to Event-driven systems, if a system is conditional, and that condition is only true for a very small time window, then stepping the system may not execute the system. This includes depending on any sort of external clock. This exhibits to the user as the system not always running when it is stepped. A solution to this limitation is to ensure any conditions are consistent while stepping is enabled. For example, all systems that modify any state the condition uses should also enable stepping. #### State-transition Systems Stepping is configured on the per-`Schedule` level, requiring the user to have a `ScheduleLabel`.

System Stepping implemented as Resource (#8453) # Objective Add interactive system debugging capabilities to bevy, providing step/break/continue style capabilities to running system schedules. * Original implementation: #8063 - `ignore_stepping()` everywhere was too much complexity * Schedule-config & Resource discussion: #8168 - Decided on selective adding of Schedules & Resource-based control ## Solution Created `Stepping` Resource. This resource can be used to enable stepping on a per-schedule basis. Systems within schedules can be individually configured to: * AlwaysRun: Ignore any stepping state and run every frame * NeverRun: Never run while stepping is enabled - this allows for disabling of systems while debugging * Break: If we're running the full frame, stop before this system is run Stepping provides two modes of execution that reflect traditional debuggers: * Step-based: Only execute one system at a time * Continue/Break: Run all systems, but stop before running a system marked as Break ### Demo https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/857742/233630981-99f3bbda-9ca6-4cc4-a00f-171c4946dc47.mov Breakout has been modified to use Stepping. The game runs normally for a couple of seconds, then stepping is enabled and the game appears to pause. A list of Schedules & Systems appears with a cursor at the first System in the list. The demo then steps forward full frames using the spacebar until the ball is about to hit a brick. Then we step system by system as the ball impacts a brick, showing the cursor moving through the individual systems. Finally the demo switches back to frame stepping as the ball changes course. ### Limitations Due to architectural constraints in bevy, there are some cases systems stepping will not function as a user would expect. #### Event-driven systems Stepping does not support systems that are driven by `Event`s as events are flushed after 1-2 frames. Although game systems are not running while stepping, ignored systems are still running every frame, so events will be flushed. This presents to the user as stepping the event-driven system never executes the system. It does execute, but the events have already been flushed. This can be resolved by changing event handling to use a buffer for events, and only dropping an event once all readers have read it. The work-around to allow these systems to properly execute during stepping is to have them ignore stepping: `app.add_systems(event_driven_system.ignore_stepping())`. This was done in the breakout example to ensure sound played even while stepping. #### Conditional Systems When a system is stepped, it is given an opportunity to run. If the conditions of the system say it should not run, it will not. Similar to Event-driven systems, if a system is conditional, and that condition is only true for a very small time window, then stepping the system may not execute the system. This includes depending on any sort of external clock. This exhibits to the user as the system not always running when it is stepped. A solution to this limitation is to ensure any conditions are consistent while stepping is enabled. For example, all systems that modify any state the condition uses should also enable stepping. #### State-transition Systems Stepping is configured on the per-`Schedule` level, requiring the user to have a `ScheduleLabel`. To support state-transition systems, bevy generates needed schedules dynamically. Currently it’s very difficult (if not impossible, I haven’t verified) for the user to get the labels for these schedules. Without ready access to the dynamically generated schedules, and a resolution for the `Event` lifetime, **stepping of the state-transition systems is not supported** --- ## Changelog - `Schedule::run()` updated to consult `Stepping` Resource to determine which Systems to run each frame - Added `Schedule.label` as a `BoxedSystemLabel`, along with supporting `Schedule::set_label()` and `Schedule::label()` methods - `Stepping` needed to know which `Schedule` was running, and prior to this PR, `Schedule` didn't track its own label - Would have preferred to add `Schedule::with_label()` and remove `Schedule::new()`, but this PR touches enough already - Added calls to `Schedule.set_label()` to `App` and `World` as needed - Added `Stepping` resource - Added `Stepping::begin_frame()` system to `MainSchedulePlugin` - Run before `Main::run_main()` - Notifies any `Stepping` Resource a new render frame is starting ## Migration Guide - Add a call to `Schedule::set_label()` for any custom `Schedule` - This is only required if the `Schedule` will be stepped --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

# Time
Unify `FixedTime` and `Time` while fixing several problems (#8964) # Objective Current `FixedTime` and `Time` have several problems. This pull aims to fix many of them at once. - If there is a longer pause between app updates, time will jump forward a lot at once and fixed time will iterate on `FixedUpdate` for a large number of steps. If the pause is merely seconds, then this will just mean jerkiness and possible unexpected behaviour in gameplay. If the pause is hours/days as with OS suspend, the game will appear to freeze until it has caught up with real time. - If calculating a fixed step takes longer than specified fixed step period, the game will enter a death spiral where rendering each frame takes longer and longer due to more and more fixed step updates being run per frame and the game appears to freeze. - There is no way to see current fixed step elapsed time inside fixed steps. In order to track this, the game designer needs to add a custom system inside `FixedUpdate` that calculates elapsed or step count in a resource. - Access to delta time inside fixed step is `FixedStep::period` rather than `Time::delta`. This, coupled with the issue that `Time::elapsed` isn't available at all for fixed steps, makes it that time requiring systems are either implemented to be run in `FixedUpdate` or `Update`, but rarely work in both. - Fixes #8800 - Fixes #8543 - Fixes #7439 - Fixes #5692 ## Solution - Create a generic `Time<T>` clock that has no processing logic but which can be instantiated for multiple usages. This is also exposed for users to add custom clocks. - Create three standard clocks, `Time<Real>`, `Time<Virtual>` and `Time<Fixed>`, all of which contain their individual logic. - Create one "default" clock, which is just `Time` (or `Time<()>`), which will be overwritten from `Time<Virtual>` on each update, and `Time<Fixed>` inside `FixedUpdate` schedule. This way systems that do not care specifically which time they track can work both in `Update` and `FixedUpdate` without changes and the behaviour is intuitive. - Add `max_delta` to virtual time update, which limits how much can be added to virtual time by a single update. This fixes both the behaviour after a long freeze, and also the death spiral by limiting how many fixed timestep iterations there can be per update. Possible future work could be adding `max_accumulator` to add a sort of "leaky bucket" time processing to possibly smooth out jumps in time while keeping frame rate stable. - Many minor tweaks and clarifications to the time functions and their documentation. ## Changelog - `Time::raw_delta()`, `Time::raw_elapsed()` and related methods are moved to `Time<Real>::delta()` and `Time<Real>::elapsed()` and now match `Time` API - `FixedTime` is now `Time<Fixed>` and matches `Time` API. - `Time<Fixed>` default timestep is now 64 Hz, or 15625 microseconds. - `Time` inside `FixedUpdate` now reflects fixed timestep time, making systems portable between `Update ` and `FixedUpdate`. - `Time::pause()`, `Time::set_relative_speed()` and related methods must now be called as `Time<Virtual>::pause()` etc. - There is a new `max_delta` setting in `Time<Virtual>` that limits how much the clock can jump by a single update. The default value is 0.25 seconds. - Removed `on_fixed_timer()` condition as `on_timer()` does the right thing inside `FixedUpdate` now. ## Migration Guide - Change all `Res<Time>` instances that access `raw_delta()`, `raw_elapsed()` and related methods to `Res<Time<Real>>` and `delta()`, `elapsed()`, etc. - Change access to `period` from `Res<FixedTime>` to `Res<Time<Fixed>>` and use `delta()`. - The default timestep has been changed from 60 Hz to 64 Hz. If you wish to restore the old behaviour, use `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_hz(60.0))`. - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new(duration))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_duration(duration))` - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new_from_secs(secs))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_seconds(secs))` - Change `system.on_fixed_timer(duration)` to `system.on_timer(duration)`. Timers in systems placed in `FixedUpdate` schedule automatically use the fixed time clock. - Change `ResMut<Time>` calls to `pause()`, `is_paused()`, `set_relative_speed()` and related methods to `ResMut<Time<Virtual>>` calls. The API is the same, with the exception that `relative_speed()` will return the actual last ste relative speed, while `effective_relative_speed()` returns 0.0 if the time is paused and corresponds to the speed that was set when the update for the current frame started. ## Todo - [x] Update pull name and description - [x] Top level documentation on usage - [x] Fix examples - [x] Decide on default `max_delta` value - [x] Decide naming of the three clocks: is `Real`, `Virtual`, `Fixed` good? - [x] Decide if the three clock inner structures should be in prelude - [x] Decide on best way to configure values at startup: is manually inserting a new clock instance okay, or should there be config struct separately? - [x] Fix links in docs - [x] Decide what should be public and what not - [x] Decide how `wrap_period` should be handled when it is changed - [x] ~~Add toggles to disable setting the clock as default?~~ No, separate pull if needed. - [x] Add tests - [x] Reformat, ensure adheres to conventions etc. - [x] Build documentation and see that it looks correct ## Contributors Huge thanks to @alice-i-cecile and @maniwani while building this pull.

category = "Time"
Unify `FixedTime` and `Time` while fixing several problems (#8964) # Objective Current `FixedTime` and `Time` have several problems. This pull aims to fix many of them at once. - If there is a longer pause between app updates, time will jump forward a lot at once and fixed time will iterate on `FixedUpdate` for a large number of steps. If the pause is merely seconds, then this will just mean jerkiness and possible unexpected behaviour in gameplay. If the pause is hours/days as with OS suspend, the game will appear to freeze until it has caught up with real time. - If calculating a fixed step takes longer than specified fixed step period, the game will enter a death spiral where rendering each frame takes longer and longer due to more and more fixed step updates being run per frame and the game appears to freeze. - There is no way to see current fixed step elapsed time inside fixed steps. In order to track this, the game designer needs to add a custom system inside `FixedUpdate` that calculates elapsed or step count in a resource. - Access to delta time inside fixed step is `FixedStep::period` rather than `Time::delta`. This, coupled with the issue that `Time::elapsed` isn't available at all for fixed steps, makes it that time requiring systems are either implemented to be run in `FixedUpdate` or `Update`, but rarely work in both. - Fixes #8800 - Fixes #8543 - Fixes #7439 - Fixes #5692 ## Solution - Create a generic `Time<T>` clock that has no processing logic but which can be instantiated for multiple usages. This is also exposed for users to add custom clocks. - Create three standard clocks, `Time<Real>`, `Time<Virtual>` and `Time<Fixed>`, all of which contain their individual logic. - Create one "default" clock, which is just `Time` (or `Time<()>`), which will be overwritten from `Time<Virtual>` on each update, and `Time<Fixed>` inside `FixedUpdate` schedule. This way systems that do not care specifically which time they track can work both in `Update` and `FixedUpdate` without changes and the behaviour is intuitive. - Add `max_delta` to virtual time update, which limits how much can be added to virtual time by a single update. This fixes both the behaviour after a long freeze, and also the death spiral by limiting how many fixed timestep iterations there can be per update. Possible future work could be adding `max_accumulator` to add a sort of "leaky bucket" time processing to possibly smooth out jumps in time while keeping frame rate stable. - Many minor tweaks and clarifications to the time functions and their documentation. ## Changelog - `Time::raw_delta()`, `Time::raw_elapsed()` and related methods are moved to `Time<Real>::delta()` and `Time<Real>::elapsed()` and now match `Time` API - `FixedTime` is now `Time<Fixed>` and matches `Time` API. - `Time<Fixed>` default timestep is now 64 Hz, or 15625 microseconds. - `Time` inside `FixedUpdate` now reflects fixed timestep time, making systems portable between `Update ` and `FixedUpdate`. - `Time::pause()`, `Time::set_relative_speed()` and related methods must now be called as `Time<Virtual>::pause()` etc. - There is a new `max_delta` setting in `Time<Virtual>` that limits how much the clock can jump by a single update. The default value is 0.25 seconds. - Removed `on_fixed_timer()` condition as `on_timer()` does the right thing inside `FixedUpdate` now. ## Migration Guide - Change all `Res<Time>` instances that access `raw_delta()`, `raw_elapsed()` and related methods to `Res<Time<Real>>` and `delta()`, `elapsed()`, etc. - Change access to `period` from `Res<FixedTime>` to `Res<Time<Fixed>>` and use `delta()`. - The default timestep has been changed from 60 Hz to 64 Hz. If you wish to restore the old behaviour, use `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_hz(60.0))`. - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new(duration))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_duration(duration))` - Change `app.insert_resource(FixedTime::new_from_secs(secs))` to `app.insert_resource(Time::<Fixed>::from_seconds(secs))` - Change `system.on_fixed_timer(duration)` to `system.on_timer(duration)`. Timers in systems placed in `FixedUpdate` schedule automatically use the fixed time clock. - Change `ResMut<Time>` calls to `pause()`, `is_paused()`, `set_relative_speed()` and related methods to `ResMut<Time<Virtual>>` calls. The API is the same, with the exception that `relative_speed()` will return the actual last ste relative speed, while `effective_relative_speed()` returns 0.0 if the time is paused and corresponds to the speed that was set when the update for the current frame started. ## Todo - [x] Update pull name and description - [x] Top level documentation on usage - [x] Fix examples - [x] Decide on default `max_delta` value - [x] Decide naming of the three clocks: is `Real`, `Virtual`, `Fixed` good? - [x] Decide if the three clock inner structures should be in prelude - [x] Decide on best way to configure values at startup: is manually inserting a new clock instance okay, or should there be config struct separately? - [x] Fix links in docs - [x] Decide what should be public and what not - [x] Decide how `wrap_period` should be handled when it is changed - [x] ~~Add toggles to disable setting the clock as default?~~ No, separate pull if needed. - [x] Add tests - [x] Reformat, ensure adheres to conventions etc. - [x] Build documentation and see that it looks correct ## Contributors Huge thanks to @alice-i-cecile and @maniwani while building this pull.

bevy_reflect: Custom attributes (#11659) # Objective As work on the editor starts to ramp up, it might be nice to start allowing types to specify custom attributes. These can be used to provide certain functionality to fields, such as ranges or controlling how data is displayed. A good example of this can be seen in [`bevy-inspector-egui`](https://github.com/jakobhellermann/bevy-inspector-egui) with its [`InspectorOptions`](https://docs.rs/bevy-inspector-egui/0.22.1/bevy_inspector_egui/struct.InspectorOptions.html): ```rust #[derive(Reflect, Default, InspectorOptions)] #[reflect(InspectorOptions)] struct Slider { #[inspector(min = 0.0, max = 1.0)] value: f32, } ``` Normally, as demonstrated in the example above, these attributes are handled by a derive macro and stored in a corresponding `TypeData` struct (i.e. `ReflectInspectorOptions`). Ideally, we would have a good way of defining this directly via reflection so that users don't need to create and manage a whole proc macro just to allow these sorts of attributes. And note that this doesn't have to just be for inspectors and editors. It can be used for things done purely on the code side of things. ## Solution Create a new method for storing attributes on fields via the `Reflect` derive. These custom attributes are stored in type info (e.g. `NamedField`, `StructInfo`, etc.). ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Slider { #[reflect(@0.0..=1.0)] value: f64, } let TypeInfo::Struct(info) = Slider::type_info() else { panic!("expected struct info"); }; let field = info.field("value").unwrap(); let range = field.get_attribute::<RangeInclusive<f64>>().unwrap(); assert_eq!(*range, 0.0..=1.0); ``` ## TODO - [x] ~~Bikeshed syntax~~ Went with a type-based approach, prefixed by `@` for ease of parsing and flexibility - [x] Add support for custom struct/tuple struct field attributes - [x] Add support for custom enum variant field attributes - [x] ~~Add support for custom enum variant attributes (maybe?)~~ ~~Will require a larger refactor. Can be saved for a future PR if we really want it.~~ Actually, we apparently still have support for variant attributes despite not using them, so it was pretty easy to add lol. - [x] Add support for custom container attributes - [x] Allow custom attributes to store any reflectable value (not just `Lit`) - [x] ~~Store attributes in registry~~ This PR used to store these in attributes in the registry, however, it has since switched over to storing them in type info - [x] Add example ## Bikeshedding > [!note] > This section was made for the old method of handling custom attributes, which stored them by name (i.e. `some_attribute = 123`). The PR has shifted away from that, to a more type-safe approach. > > This section has been left for reference. There are a number of ways we can syntactically handle custom attributes. Feel free to leave a comment on your preferred one! Ideally we want one that is clear, readable, and concise since these will potentially see _a lot_ of use. Below is a small, non-exhaustive list of them. Note that the `skip_serializing` reflection attribute is added to demonstrate how each case plays with existing reflection attributes. <details> <summary>List</summary> ##### 1. `@(name = value)` > The `@` was chosen to make them stand out from other attributes and because the "at" symbol is a subtle pneumonic for "attribute". Of course, other symbols could be used (e.g. `$`, `#`, etc.). ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Slider { #[reflect(@(min = 0.0, max = 1.0), skip_serializing)] #[[reflect(@(bevy_editor::hint = "Range: 0.0 to 1.0"))] value: f32, } ``` ##### 2. `@name = value` > This is my personal favorite. ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Slider { #[reflect(@min = 0.0, @max = 1.0, skip_serializing)] #[[reflect(@bevy_editor::hint = "Range: 0.0 to 1.0")] value: f32, } ``` ##### 3. `custom_attr(name = value)` > `custom_attr` can be anything. Other possibilities include `with` or `tag`. ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Slider { #[reflect(custom_attr(min = 0.0, max = 1.0), skip_serializing)] #[[reflect(custom_attr(bevy_editor::hint = "Range: 0.0 to 1.0"))] value: f32, } ``` ##### 4. `reflect_attr(name = value)` ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Slider { #[reflect(skip_serializing)] #[reflect_attr(min = 0.0, max = 1.0)] #[[reflect_attr(bevy_editor::hint = "Range: 0.0 to 1.0")] value: f32, } ``` </details> --- ## Changelog - Added support for custom attributes on reflected types (i.e. `#[reflect(@Foo::new("bar")]`)

bevy_reflect: Function reflection (#13152) # Objective We're able to reflect types sooooooo... why not functions? The goal of this PR is to make functions callable within a dynamic context, where type information is not readily available at compile time. For example, if we have a function: ```rust fn add(left: i32, right: i32) -> i32 { left + right } ``` And two `Reflect` values we've already validated are `i32` types: ```rust let left: Box<dyn Reflect> = Box::new(2_i32); let right: Box<dyn Reflect> = Box::new(2_i32); ``` We should be able to call `add` with these values: ```rust // ????? let result: Box<dyn Reflect> = add.call_dynamic(left, right); ``` And ideally this wouldn't just work for functions, but methods and closures too! Right now, users have two options: 1. Manually parse the reflected data and call the function themselves 2. Rely on registered type data to handle the conversions for them For a small function like `add`, this isn't too bad. But what about for more complex functions? What about for many functions? At worst, this process is error-prone. At best, it's simply tedious. And this is assuming we know the function at compile time. What if we want to accept a function dynamically and call it with our own arguments? It would be much nicer if `bevy_reflect` could alleviate some of the problems here. ## Solution Added function reflection! This adds a `DynamicFunction` type to wrap a function dynamically. This can be called with an `ArgList`, which is a dynamic list of `Reflect`-containing `Arg` arguments. It returns a `FunctionResult` which indicates whether or not the function call succeeded, returning a `Reflect`-containing `Return` type if it did succeed. Many functions can be converted into this `DynamicFunction` type thanks to the `IntoFunction` trait. Taking our previous `add` example, this might look something like (explicit types added for readability): ```rust fn add(left: i32, right: i32) -> i32 { left + right } let mut function: DynamicFunction = add.into_function(); let args: ArgList = ArgList::new().push_owned(2_i32).push_owned(2_i32); let result: Return = function.call(args).unwrap(); let value: Box<dyn Reflect> = result.unwrap_owned(); assert_eq!(value.take::<i32>().unwrap(), 4); ``` And it also works on closures: ```rust let add = |left: i32, right: i32| left + right; let mut function: DynamicFunction = add.into_function(); let args: ArgList = ArgList::new().push_owned(2_i32).push_owned(2_i32); let result: Return = function.call(args).unwrap(); let value: Box<dyn Reflect> = result.unwrap_owned(); assert_eq!(value.take::<i32>().unwrap(), 4); ``` As well as methods: ```rust #[derive(Reflect)] struct Foo(i32); impl Foo { fn add(&mut self, value: i32) { self.0 += value; } } let mut foo = Foo(2); let mut function: DynamicFunction = Foo::add.into_function(); let args: ArgList = ArgList::new().push_mut(&mut foo).push_owned(2_i32); function.call(args).unwrap(); assert_eq!(foo.0, 4); ``` ### Limitations While this does cover many functions, it is far from a perfect system and has quite a few limitations. Here are a few of the limitations when using `IntoFunction`: 1. The lifetime of the return value is only tied to the lifetime of the first argument (useful for methods). This means you can't have a function like `(a: i32, b: &i32) -> &i32` without creating the `DynamicFunction` manually. 2. Only 15 arguments are currently supported. If the first argument is a (mutable) reference, this number increases to 16. 3. Manual implementations of `Reflect` will need to implement the new `FromArg`, `GetOwnership`, and `IntoReturn` traits in order to be used as arguments/return types. And some limitations of `DynamicFunction` itself: 1. All arguments share the same lifetime, or rather, they will shrink to the shortest lifetime. 2. Closures that capture their environment may need to have their `DynamicFunction` dropped before accessing those variables again (there is a `DynamicFunction::call_once` to make this a bit easier) 3. All arguments and return types must implement `Reflect`. While not a big surprise coming from `bevy_reflect`, this implementation could actually still work by swapping `Reflect` out with `Any`. Of course, that makes working with the arguments and return values a bit harder. 4. Generic functions are not supported (unless they have been manually monomorphized) And general, reflection gotchas: 1. `&str` does not implement `Reflect`. Rather, `&'static str` implements `Reflect` (the same is true for `&Path` and similar types). This means that `&'static str` is considered an "owned" value for the sake of generating arguments. Additionally, arguments and return types containing `&str` will assume it's `&'static str`, which is almost never the desired behavior. In these cases, the only solution (I believe) is to use `&String` instead. ### Followup Work This PR is the first of two PRs I intend to work on. The second PR will aim to integrate this new function reflection system into the existing reflection traits and `TypeInfo`. The goal would be to register and call a reflected type's methods dynamically. I chose not to do that in this PR since the diff is already quite large. I also want the discussion for both PRs to be focused on their own implementation. Another followup I'd like to do is investigate allowing common container types as a return type, such as `Option<&[mut] T>` and `Result<&[mut] T, E>`. This would allow even more functions to opt into this system. I chose to not include it in this one, though, for the same reasoning as previously mentioned. ### Alternatives One alternative I had considered was adding a macro to convert any function into a reflection-based counterpart. The idea would be that a struct that wraps the function would be created and users could specify which arguments and return values should be `Reflect`. It could then be called via a new `Function` trait. I think that could still work, but it will be a fair bit more involved, requiring some slightly more complex parsing. And it of course is a bit more work for the user, since they need to create the type via macro invocation. It also makes registering these functions onto a type a bit more complicated (depending on how it's implemented). For now, I think this is a fairly simple, yet powerful solution that provides the least amount of friction for users. --- ## Showcase Bevy now adds support for storing and calling functions dynamically using reflection! ```rust // 1. Take a standard Rust function fn add(left: i32, right: i32) -> i32 { left + right } // 2.

These examples demonstrate how to implement different shaders in user code.
A shader in its most common usage is a small program that is run by the GPU per-vertex in a mesh (a vertex shader) or per-affected-screen-fragment (a fragment shader.) The GPU executes these programs in a highly parallel way.
There are also compute shaders which are used for more general processing leveraging the GPU's parallelism.

Mesh vertex buffer layouts (#3959) This PR makes a number of changes to how meshes and vertex attributes are handled, which the goal of enabling easy and flexible custom vertex attributes: * Reworks the `Mesh` type to use the newly added `VertexAttribute` internally * `VertexAttribute` defines the name, a unique `VertexAttributeId`, and a `VertexFormat` * `VertexAttributeId` is used to produce consistent sort orders for vertex buffer generation, replacing the more expensive and often surprising "name based sorting" * Meshes can be used to generate a `MeshVertexBufferLayout`, which defines the layout of the gpu buffer produced by the mesh. `MeshVertexBufferLayouts` can then be used to generate actual `VertexBufferLayouts` according to the requirements of a specific pipeline. This decoupling of "mesh layout" vs "pipeline vertex buffer layout" is what enables custom attributes. We don't need to standardize _mesh layouts_ or contort meshes to meet the needs of a specific pipeline. As long as the mesh has what the pipeline needs, it will work transparently. * Mesh-based pipelines now specialize on `&MeshVertexBufferLayout` via the new `SpecializedMeshPipeline` trait (which behaves like `SpecializedPipeline`, but adds `&MeshVertexBufferLayout`). The integrity of the pipeline cache is maintained because the `MeshVertexBufferLayout` is treated as part of the key (which is fully abstracted from implementers of the trait ... no need to add any additional info to the specialization key). * Hashing `MeshVertexBufferLayout` is too expensive to do for every entity, every frame. To make this scalable, I added a generalized "pre-hashing" solution to `bevy_utils`: `Hashed<T>` keys and `PreHashMap<K, V>` (which uses `Hashed<T>` internally) . Why didn't I just do the quick and dirty in-place "pre-compute hash and use that u64 as a key in a hashmap" that we've done in the past? Because its wrong! Hashes by themselves aren't enough because two different values can produce the same hash. Re-hashing a hash is even worse! I decided to build a generalized solution because this pattern has come up in the past and we've chosen to do the wrong thing. Now we can do the right thing! This did unfortunately require pulling in `hashbrown` and using that in `bevy_utils`, because avoiding re-hashes requires the `raw_entry_mut` api, which isn't stabilized yet (and may never be ... `entry_ref` has favor now, but also isn't available yet). If std's HashMap ever provides the tools we need, we can move back to that. Note that adding `hashbrown` doesn't increase our dependency count because it was already in our tree. I will probably break these changes out into their own PR. * Specializing on `MeshVertexBufferLayout` has one non-obvious behavior: it can produce identical pipelines for two different MeshVertexBufferLayouts. To optimize the number of active pipelines / reduce re-binds while drawing, I de-duplicate pipelines post-specialization using the final `VertexBufferLayout` as the key. For example, consider a pipeline that needs the layout `(position, normal)` and is specialized using two meshes: `(position, normal, uv)` and `(position, normal, other_vec2)`. If both of these meshes result in `(position, normal)` specializations, we can use the same pipeline! Now we do. Cool! To briefly illustrate, this is what the relevant section of `MeshPipeline`'s specialization code looks like now: ```rust impl SpecializedMeshPipeline for MeshPipeline { type Key = MeshPipelineKey; fn specialize( &self, key: Self::Key, layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout, ) -> RenderPipelineDescriptor { let mut vertex_attributes = vec![ Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION.at_shader_location(0), Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL.at_shader_location(1), Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_UV_0.at_shader_location(2), ]; let mut shader_defs = Vec::new(); if layout.contains(Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_TANGENT) { shader_defs.push(String::from("VERTEX_TANGENTS")); vertex_attributes.push(Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_TANGENT.at_shader_location(3)); } let vertex_buffer_layout = layout .get_layout(&vertex_attributes) .expect("Mesh is missing a vertex attribute"); ``` Notice that this is _much_ simpler than it was before. And now any mesh with any layout can be used with this pipeline, provided it has vertex postions, normals, and uvs. We even got to remove `HAS_TANGENTS` from MeshPipelineKey and `has_tangents` from `GpuMesh`, because that information is redundant with `MeshVertexBufferLayout`. This is still a draft because I still need to: * Add more docs * Experiment with adding error handling to mesh pipeline specialization (which would print errors at runtime when a mesh is missing a vertex attribute required by a pipeline). If it doesn't tank perf, we'll keep it. * Consider breaking out the PreHash / hashbrown changes into a separate PR. * Add an example illustrating this change * Verify that the "mesh-specialized pipeline de-duplication code" works properly Please dont yell at me for not doing these things yet :) Just trying to get this in peoples' hands asap.

Start a built-in postprocessing stack, and implement chromatic aberration in it. (#13695) This commit creates a new built-in postprocessing shader that's designed to hold miscellaneous postprocessing effects, and starts it off with chromatic aberration. Possible future effects include vignette, film grain, and lens distortion. [Chromatic aberration] is a common postprocessing effect that simulates lenses that fail to focus all colors of light to a single point. It's often used for impact effects and/or horror games. This patch uses the technique from *Inside* ([Gjøl & Svendsen 2016]), which allows the developer to customize the particular color pattern to achieve different effects. Unity HDRP uses the same technique, while Unreal has a hard-wired fixed color pattern. A new example, `post_processing`, has been added, in order to demonstrate the technique. The existing `post_processing` shader has been renamed to `custom_post_processing`, for clarity.

Modular Rendering (#2831) This changes how render logic is composed to make it much more modular. Previously, all extraction logic was centralized for a given "type" of rendered thing. For example, we extracted meshes into a vector of ExtractedMesh, which contained the mesh and material asset handles, the transform, etc. We looked up bindings for "drawn things" using their index in the `Vec<ExtractedMesh>`. This worked fine for built in rendering, but made it hard to reuse logic for "custom" rendering. It also prevented us from reusing things like "extracted transforms" across contexts. To make rendering more modular, I made a number of changes: * Entities now drive rendering: * We extract "render components" from "app components" and store them _on_ entities. No more centralized uber lists! We now have true "ECS-driven rendering" * To make this perform well, I implemented #2673 in upstream Bevy for fast batch insertions into specific entities. This was merged into the `pipelined-rendering` branch here: #2815 * Reworked the `Draw` abstraction: * Generic `PhaseItems`: each draw phase can define its own type of "rendered thing", which can define its own "sort key" * Ported the 2d, 3d, and shadow phases to the new PhaseItem impl (currently Transparent2d, Transparent3d, and Shadow PhaseItems) * `Draw` trait and and `DrawFunctions` are now generic on PhaseItem * Modular / Ergonomic `DrawFunctions` via `RenderCommands` * RenderCommand is a trait that runs an ECS query and produces one or more RenderPass calls. Types implementing this trait can be composed to create a final DrawFunction. For example the DrawPbr DrawFunction is created from the following DrawCommand tuple. Const generics are used to set specific bind group locations: ```rust pub type DrawPbr = ( SetPbrPipeline, SetMeshViewBindGroup<0>, SetStandardMaterialBindGroup<1>, SetTransformBindGroup<2>, DrawMesh, ); ``` * The new `custom_shader_pipelined` example illustrates how the commands above can be reused to create a custom draw function: ```rust type DrawCustom = ( SetCustomMaterialPipeline, SetMeshViewBindGroup<0>, SetTransformBindGroup<2>, DrawMesh, ); ``` * ExtractComponentPlugin and UniformComponentPlugin: * Simple, standardized ways to easily extract individual components and write them to GPU buffers * Ported PBR and Sprite rendering to the new primitives above. * Removed staging buffer from UniformVec in favor of direct Queue usage * Makes UniformVec much easier to use and more ergonomic. Completely removes the need for custom render graph nodes in these contexts (see the PbrNode and view Node removals and the much simpler call patterns in the relevant Prepare systems). * Added a many_cubes_pipelined example to benchmark baseline 3d rendering performance and ensure there were no major regressions during this port. Avoiding regressions was challenging given that the old approach of extracting into centralized vectors is basically the "optimal" approach. However thanks to a various ECS optimizations and render logic rephrasing, we pretty much break even on this benchmark! * Lifetimeless SystemParams: this will be a bit divisive, but as we continue to embrace "trait driven systems" (ex: ExtractComponentPlugin, UniformComponentPlugin, DrawCommand), the ergonomics of `(Query<'static, 'static, (&'static A, &'static B, &'static)>, Res<'static, C>)` were getting very hard to bear. As a compromise, I added "static type aliases" for the relevant SystemParams. The previous example can now be expressed like this: `(SQuery<(Read<A>, Read<B>)>, SRes<C>)`. If anyone has better ideas / conflicting opinions, please let me know! * RunSystem trait: a way to define Systems via a trait with a SystemParam associated type. This is used to implement the various plugins mentioned above. I also added SystemParamItem and QueryItem type aliases to make "trait stye" ecs interactions nicer on the eyes (and fingers). * RenderAsset retrying: ensures that render assets are only created when they are "ready" and allows us to create bind groups directly inside render assets (which significantly simplified the StandardMaterial code). I think ultimately we should swap this out on "asset dependency" events to wait for dependencies to load, but this will require significant asset system changes. * Updated some built in shaders to account for missing MeshUniform fields

Pipeline Specialization, Shader Assets, and Shader Preprocessing (#3031) ## New Features This adds the following to the new renderer: * **Shader Assets** * Shaders are assets again! Users no longer need to call `include_str!` for their shaders * Shader hot-reloading * **Shader Defs / Shader Preprocessing** * Shaders now support `# ifdef NAME`, `# ifndef NAME`, and `# endif` preprocessor directives * **Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptor and RenderPipelineCache** * Bevy now provides its own `RenderPipelineDescriptor` and the wgpu version is now exported as `RawRenderPipelineDescriptor`. This allows users to define pipelines with `Handle<Shader>` instead of needing to manually compile and reference `ShaderModules`, enables passing in shader defs to configure the shader preprocessor, makes hot reloading possible (because the descriptor can be owned and used to create new pipelines when a shader changes), and opens the doors to pipeline specialization. * The `RenderPipelineCache` now handles compiling and re-compiling Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptors. It has internal PipelineLayout and ShaderModule caches. Users receive a `CachedPipelineId`, which can be used to look up the actual `&RenderPipeline` during rendering. * **Pipeline Specialization** * This enables defining per-entity-configurable pipelines that specialize on arbitrary custom keys. In practice this will involve specializing based on things like MSAA values, Shader Defs, Bind Group existence, and Vertex Layouts. * Adds a `SpecializedPipeline` trait and `SpecializedPipelines<MyPipeline>` resource. This is a simple layer that generates Bevy RenderPipelineDescriptors based on a custom key defined for the pipeline. * Specialized pipelines are also hot-reloadable. * This was the result of experimentation with two different approaches: 1. **"generic immediate mode multi-key hash pipeline specialization"** * breaks up the pipeline into multiple "identities" (the core pipeline definition, shader defs, mesh layout, bind group layout). each of these identities has its own key. looking up / compiling a specific version of a pipeline requires composing all of these keys together * the benefit of this approach is that it works for all pipelines / the pipeline is fully identified by the keys. the multiple keys allow pre-hashing parts of the pipeline identity where possible (ex: pre compute the mesh identity for all meshes) * the downside is that any per-entity data that informs the values of these keys could require expensive re-hashes. computing each key for each sprite tanked bevymark performance (sprites don't actually need this level of specialization yet ... but things like pbr and future sprite scenarios might). * this is the approach rafx used last time i checked 2. **"custom key specialization"** * Pipelines by default are not specialized * Pipelines that need specialization implement a SpecializedPipeline trait with a custom key associated type * This allows specialization keys to encode exactly the amount of information required (instead of needing to be a combined hash of the entire pipeline). Generally this should fit in a small number of bytes. Per-entity specialization barely registers anymore on things like bevymark. It also makes things like "shader defs" way cheaper to hash because we can use context specific bitflags instead of strings. * Despite the extra trait, it actually generally makes pipeline definitions + lookups simpler: managing multiple keys (and making the appropriate calls to manage these keys) was way more complicated. * I opted for custom key specialization. It performs better generally and in my opinion is better UX. Fortunately the way this is implemented also allows for custom caches as this all builds on a common abstraction: the RenderPipelineCache. The built in custom key trait is just a simple / pre-defined way to interact with the cache ## Callouts * The SpecializedPipeline trait makes it easy to inherit pipeline configuration in custom pipelines. The changes to `custom_shader_pipelined` and the new `shader_defs_pipelined` example illustrate how much simpler it is to define custom pipelines based on the PbrPipeline. * The shader preprocessor is currently pretty naive (it just uses regexes to process each line). Ultimately we might want to build a more custom parser for more performance + better error handling, but for now I'm happy to optimize for "easy to implement and understand". ## Next Steps * Port compute pipelines to the new system * Add more preprocessor directives (else, elif, import) * More flexible vertex attribute specialization / enable cheaply specializing on specific mesh vertex layouts

Add depth and normal prepass (#6284) # Objective - Add a configurable prepass - A depth prepass is useful for various shader effects and to reduce overdraw. It can be expansive depending on the scene so it's important to be able to disable it if you don't need any effects that uses it or don't suffer from excessive overdraw. - The goal is to eventually use it for things like TAA, Ambient Occlusion, SSR and various other techniques that can benefit from having a prepass. ## Solution The prepass node is inserted before the main pass. It runs for each `Camera3d` with a prepass component (`DepthPrepass`, `NormalPrepass`). The presence of one of those components is used to determine which textures are generated in the prepass. When any prepass is enabled, the depth buffer generated will be used by the main pass to reduce overdraw. The prepass runs for each `Material` created with the `MaterialPlugin::prepass_enabled` option set to `true`. You can overload the shader used by the prepass by using `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and/or `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()`. It will also use the `Material::specialize()` for more advanced use cases. It is enabled by default on all materials. The prepass works on opaque materials and materials using an alpha mask. Transparent materials are ignored. The `StandardMaterial` overloads the prepass fragment shader to support alpha mask and normal maps. --- ## Changelog - Add a new `PrepassNode` that runs before the main pass - Add a `PrepassPlugin` to extract/prepare/queue the necessary data - Add a `DepthPrepass` and `NormalPrepass` component to control which textures will be created by the prepass and available in later passes. - Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `MaterialPlugin` that will control if a material uses the prepass or not. - Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `PbrPlugin` to control if the StandardMaterial uses the prepass. Currently defaults to false. - Add `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()` to control the prepass from the `Material` ## Notes In bevy's sample 3d scene, the performance is actually worse when enabling the prepass, but on more complex scenes the performance is generally better. I would like more testing on this, but @DGriffin91 has reported a very noticeable improvements in some scenes. The prepass is also used by @JMS55 for TAA and GTAO discord thread: <https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1011624228627419187> This PR was built on top of the work of multiple people Co-Authored-By: @superdump Co-Authored-By: @robtfm Co-Authored-By: @JMS55 Co-authored-by: Charles <IceSentry@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: JMS55 <47158642+JMS55@users.noreply.github.com>

Reduce internal system order ambiguities, and add an example explaining them (#7383) # Objective - Bevy should not have any "internal" execution order ambiguities.

I don't have the tools to fix this without system set configuration, so the remaining work is going to be left to #7267 or another PR after that. ``` 2023-01-27T18:38:42.989405Z INFO bevy_ecs::schedule::ambiguity_detection: Execution order ambiguities detected, you might want to add an explicit dependency relation between some of these systems: * Parallel systems: -- "bevy_animation::animation_player" and "bevy_ui::flex::flex_node_system" conflicts: ["bevy_transform::components::transform::Transform"] ``` ## Changelog Resolved internal execution order ambiguities for: 1. Transform propagation (ignored, we need smarter filter checking). 2. Gamepad processing (fixed). 3. bevy_winit's window handling (fixed). 4. Cascaded shadow maps and perspectives (fixed). Also fixed a desynchronized state bug that could occur when the `Window` component is removed and then added to the same entity in a single frame.

Generalised ECS reactivity with Observers (#10839) # Objective - Provide an expressive way to register dynamic behavior in response to ECS changes that is consistent with existing bevy types and traits as to provide a smooth user experience. - Provide a mechanism for immediate changes in response to events during command application in order to facilitate improved query caching on the path to relations. ## Solution - A new fundamental ECS construct, the `Observer`; inspired by flec's observers but adapted to better fit bevy's access patterns and rust's type system. --- ## Examples There are 3 main ways to register observers. The first is a "component observer" that looks like this: ```rust world.observe(|trigger: Trigger<OnAdd, Transform>, query: Query<&Transform>| { let transform = query.get(trigger.entity()).unwrap(); }); ``` The above code will spawn a new entity representing the observer that will run it's callback whenever the `Transform` component is added to an entity. This is a system-like function that supports dependency injection for all the standard bevy types: `Query`, `Res`, `Commands` etc. It also has a `Trigger` parameter that provides information about the trigger such as the target entity, and the event being triggered. Importantly these systems run during command application which is key for their future use to keep ECS internals up to date. There are similar events for `OnInsert` and `OnRemove`, and this will be expanded with things such as `ArchetypeCreated`, `TableEmpty` etc. in follow up PRs. Another way to register an observer is an "entity observer" that looks like this: ```rust world.entity_mut(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| { // ... }); ``` Entity observers run whenever an event of their type is triggered targeting that specific entity. This type of observer will de-spawn itself if the entity (or entities) it is observing is ever de-spawned so as to not leave dangling observers. Entity observers can also be spawned from deferred contexts such as other observers, systems, or hooks using commands: ```rust commands.entity(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| { // ... }); ``` Observers are not limited to in built event types, they can be used with any type that implements `Event` (which has been extended to implement Component). This means events can also carry data: ```rust #[derive(Event)] struct Resize { x: u32, y: u32 } commands.entity(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>, query: Query<&mut Size>| { let event = trigger.event(); // ... }); // Will trigger the observer when commands are applied. commands.trigger_targets(Resize { x: 10, y: 10 }, entity); ``` You can also trigger events that target more than one entity at a time: ```rust commands.trigger_targets(Resize { x: 10, y: 10 }, [e1, e2]); ``` Additionally, Observers don't _need_ entity targets: ```rust app.observe(|trigger: Trigger<Quit>| { }) commands.trigger(Quit); ``` In these cases, `trigger.entity()` will be a placeholder. Observers are actually just normal entities with an `ObserverState` and `Observer` component! The `observe()` functions above are just shorthand for: ```rust world.spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| {}); ``` This will spawn the `Observer` system and use an `on_add` hook to add the `ObserverState` component. Dynamic components and trigger types are also fully supported allowing for runtime defined trigger types. ## Possible Follow-ups 1. Deprecate `RemovedComponents`, observers should fulfill all use cases while being more flexible and performant. 2. Queries as entities: Swap queries to entities and begin using observers listening to archetype creation triggers to keep their caches in sync, this allows unification of `ObserverState` and `QueryState` as well as unlocking several API improvements for `Query` and the management of `QueryState`. 3. Trigger bubbling: For some UI use cases in particular users are likely to want some form of bubbling for entity observers, this is trivial to implement naively but ideally this includes an acceleration structure to cache hierarchy traversals. 4. All kinds of other in-built trigger types. 5. Optimization; in order to not bloat the complexity of the PR I have kept the implementation straightforward, there are several areas where performance can be improved. The focus for this PR is to get the behavior implemented and not incur a performance cost for users who don't use observers. I am leaving each of these to follow up PR's in order to keep each of them reviewable as this already includes significant changes. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: MiniaczQ <xnetroidpl@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

Minimal Bubbling Observers (#13991) # Objective Add basic bubbling to observers, modeled off `bevy_eventlistener`. ## Solution - Introduce a new `Traversal` trait for components which point to other entities. - Provide a default `TraverseNone: Traversal` component which cannot be constructed. - Implement `Traversal` for `Parent`. - The `Event` trait now has an associated `Traversal` which defaults to `TraverseNone`. - Added a field `bubbling: &mut bool` to `Trigger` which can be used to instruct the runner to bubble the event to the entity specified by the event's traversal type. - Added an associated constant `SHOULD_BUBBLE` to `Event` which configures the default bubbling state. - Added logic to wire this all up correctly. Introducing the new associated information directly on `Event` (instead of a new `BubblingEvent` trait) lets us dispatch both bubbling and non-bubbling events through the same api. ## Testing I have added several unit tests to cover the common bugs I identified during development. Running the unit tests should be enough to validate correctness. The changes effect unsafe portions of the code, but should not change any of the safety assertions. ## Changelog Observers can now bubble up the entity hierarchy! To create a bubbling event, change your `Derive(Event)` to something like the following: ```rust #[derive(Component)] struct MyEvent; impl Event for MyEvent { type Traverse = Parent; // This event will propagate up from child to parent. const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = true; // This event will propagate by default. } ``` You can dispatch a bubbling event using the normal `world.trigger_targets(MyEvent, entity)`. Halting an event mid-bubble can be done using `trigger.propagate(false)`. Events with `AUTO_PROPAGATE = false` will not propagate by default, but you can enable it using `trigger.propagate(true)`. If there are multiple observers attached to a target, they will all be triggered by bubbling. They all share a bubbling state, which can be accessed mutably using `trigger.propagation_mut()` (`trigger.propagate` is just sugar for this). You can choose to implement `Traversal` for your own types, if you want to bubble along a different structure than provided by `bevy_hierarchy`. Implementers must be careful never to produce loops, because this will cause bevy to hang. ## Migration Guide + Manual implementations of `Event` should add associated type `Traverse = TraverseNone` and associated constant `AUTO_PROPAGATE = false`; + `Trigger::new` has new field `propagation: &mut Propagation` which provides the bubbling state. + `ObserverRunner` now takes the same `&mut Propagation` as a final parameter. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Torstein Grindvik <52322338+torsteingrindvik@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

Alignment API for Transforms (#12187) # Objective - Closes #11793 - Introduces a general API for aligning local coordinates of Transforms with given vectors. ## Solution - We introduce `Transform::align`, which allows a rotation to be specified by four pieces of alignment data, as explained by the documentation: ````rust /// Rotates this [`Transform`] so that the `main_axis` vector, reinterpreted in local coordinates, points /// in the given `main_direction`, while `secondary_axis` points towards `secondary_direction`. /// /// For example, if a spaceship model has its nose pointing in the X-direction in its own local coordinates /// and its dorsal fin pointing in the Y-direction, then `align(Vec3::X, v, Vec3::Y, w)` will make the spaceship's /// nose point in the direction of `v`, while the dorsal fin does its best to point in the direction `w`. /// /// More precisely, the [`Transform::rotation`] produced will be such that: /// * applying it to `main_axis` results in `main_direction` /// * applying it to `secondary_axis` produces a vector that lies in the half-plane generated by `main_direction` and /// `secondary_direction` (with positive contribution by `secondary_direction`) /// /// [`Transform::look_to`] is recovered, for instance, when `main_axis` is `Vec3::NEG_Z` (the [`Transform::forward`] /// direction in the default orientation) and `secondary_axis` is `Vec3::Y` (the [`Transform::up`] direction in the default /// orientation). (Failure cases may differ somewhat.) /// /// In some cases a rotation cannot be constructed. Another axis will be picked in those cases: /// * if `main_axis` or `main_direction` is zero, `Vec3::X` takes its place /// * if `secondary_axis` or `secondary_direction` is zero, `Vec3::Y` takes its place /// * if `main_axis` is parallel with `secondary_axis` or `main_direction` is parallel with `secondary_direction`, /// a rotation is constructed which takes `main_axis` to `main_direction` along a great circle, ignoring the secondary /// counterparts /// /// Example /// ``` /// # use bevy_math::{Vec3, Quat}; /// # use bevy_transform::components::Transform; /// let mut t1 = Transform::IDENTITY; /// let mut t2 = Transform::IDENTITY; /// t1.align(Vec3::ZERO, Vec3::Z, Vec3::ZERO, Vec3::X); /// t2.align(Vec3::X, Vec3::Z, Vec3::Y, Vec3::X); /// assert_eq!(t1.rotation, t2.rotation); /// /// t1.align(Vec3::X, Vec3::Z, Vec3::X, Vec3::Y); /// assert_eq!(t1.rotation, Quat::from_rotation_arc(Vec3::X, Vec3::Z)); /// ``` pub fn align( &mut self, main_axis: Vec3, main_direction: Vec3, secondary_axis: Vec3, secondary_direction: Vec3, ) { //... } ```` - We introduce `Transform::aligned_by`, the returning-Self version of `align`: ````rust pub fn aligned_by( mut self, main_axis: Vec3, main_direction: Vec3, secondary_axis: Vec3, secondary_direction: Vec3, ) -> Self { //... } ```` - We introduce an example (examples/transforms/align.rs) that shows the usage of this API. It is likely to be mathier than most other `Transform` APIs, so when run, the example demonstrates what the API does in space: <img width="1440" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 at 11 01 19 AM" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/884b3cc3-cbd9-48ae-8f8c-49a677c59dfe"> --- ## Changelog - Added methods `align`, `aligned_by` to `Transform`. - Added transforms/align.rs to examples. --- ## Discussion ### On the form of `align` The original issue linked above suggests an API similar to that of the existing `Transform::look_to` method: ````rust pub fn align_to(&mut self, direction: Vec3, up: Vec3) { //... } ```` Not allowing an input axis of some sort that is to be aligned with `direction` would not really solve the problem in the issue, since the user could easily be in a scenario where they have to compose with another rotation on their own (undesirable). This leads to something like: ````rust pub fn align_to(&mut self, axis: Vec3, direction: Vec3, up: Vec3) { //... } ```` However, this still has two problems: - If the vector that the user wants to align is parallel to the Y-axis, then the API basically does not work (we cannot fully specify a rotation) - More generally, it does not give the user the freedom to specify which direction is to be treated as the local "up" direction, so it fails as a general alignment API Specifying both leads us to the present situation, with two local axis inputs (`main_axis` and `secondary_axis`) and two target directions (`main_direction` and `secondary_direction`). This might seem a little cumbersome for general use, but for the time being I stand by the decision not to expand further without prompting from users. I'll expand on this below. ### Additional APIs? Presently, this PR introduces only `align` and `aligned_by`. Other potentially useful bundles of API surface arrange into a few different categories: 1. Inferring direction from position, a la `Transform::look_at`, which might look something like this: ````rust pub fn align_at(&mut self, axis: Vec3, target: Vec3, up: Vec3) { self.align(axis, target - self.translation, Vec3::Y, up); } ```` (This is simple but still runs into issues when the user wants to point the local Y-axis somewhere.) 2. Filling in some data for the user for common use-cases; e.g.: ````rust pub fn align_x(&mut self, direction: Vec3, up: Vec3) { self.align(Vec3::X, direction, Vec3::Y, up); } ```` (Here, use of the `up` vector doesn't lose any generality, but it might be less convenient to specify than something else. This does naturally leave open the question of what `align_y` would look like if we provided it.) Morally speaking, I do think that the `up` business is more pertinent when the intention is to work with cameras, which the `look_at` and `look_to` APIs seem to cover pretty well. If that's the case, then I'm not sure what the ideal shape for these API functions would be, since it seems like a lot of input would have to be baked into the function definitions. For some cases, this might not be the end of the world: ````rust pub fn align_x_z(&mut self, direction: Vec3, weak_direction: Vec3) { self.align(Vec3::X, direction, Vec3::Z, weak_direction); } ```` (However, this is not symmetrical in x and z, so you'd still need six API functions just to support the standard positive coordinate axes, and if you support negative axes then things really start to balloon.) The reasons that these are not actually produced in this PR are as follows: 1. Without prompting from actual users in the wild, it is unknown to me whether these additional APIs would actually see a lot of use. Extending these to our users in the future would be trivial if we see there is a demand for something specific from the above-mentioned categories. 2. As discussed above, there are so many permutations of these that could be provided that trying to do so looks like it risks unduly ballooning the API surface for this feature. 3. Finally, and most importantly, creating these helper functions in user-space is trivial, since they all just involve specializing `align` to particular inputs; e.g.: ````rust fn align_ship(ship_transform: &mut Transform, nose_direction: Vec3, dorsal_direction: Vec3) { ship_transform.align(Ship::NOSE, nose_direction, Ship::DORSAL, dorsal_direction); } ```` With that in mind, I would prefer instead to focus on making the documentation and examples for a thin API as clear as possible, so that users can get a grip on the tool and specialize it for their own needs when they feel the desire to do so. ### `Dir3`? As in the case of `Transform::look_to` and `Transform::look_at`, the inputs to this function are, morally speaking, *directions* rather than vectors (actually, if we're being pedantic, the input is *really really* a pair of orthonormal frames), so it's worth asking whether we should really be using `Dir3` as inputs instead of `Vec3`. I opted for `Vec3` for the following reasons: 1. Specifying a `Dir3` in user-space is just more annoying than providing a `Vec3`. Even in the most basic cases (e.g. providing a vector literal), you still have to do error handling or call an unsafe unwrap in your function invocations. 2. The existing API mentioned above uses `Vec3`, so we are just adhering to the same thing. Of course, the use of `Vec3` has its own downsides; it can be argued that the replacement of zero-vectors with fixed ones (which we do in `Transform::align` as well as `Transform::look_to`) more-or-less amounts to failing silently. ### Future steps The question of additional APIs was addressed above. For me, the main thing here to handle more immediately is actually just upstreaming this API (or something similar and slightly mathier) to `glam::Quat`. The reason that this would be desirable for users is that this API currently only works with `Transform`s even though all it's actually doing is specifying a rotation. Upstreaming to `glam::Quat`, properly done, could buy a lot basically for free, since a number of `Transform` methods take a rotation as an input. Using these together would require a little bit of mathematical savvy, but it opens up some good things (e.g. `Transform::rotate_around`).

If only one axis is clipped, the other axis is given infinite bounds. <img width="642" alt="overflow" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/27962798/227592983-568cf76f-7e40-48c4-a511-43c886f5e431.PNG"> --- ## Changelog * Split the UI overflow implementation so overflow can be set for each axis separately. * Added the enum `OverflowAxis` with `Clip` and `Visible` variants. * Changed `Overflow` to a struct with `x` and `y` fields of type `OverflowAxis`. * `Overflow` has new methods `visible()` and `hidden()` that replace its previous `Clip` and `Visible` variants. * Added `Overflow` helper methods `clip_x()` and `clip_y()` that return a new `Overflow` value with the given axis clipped. * Modified `update_clipping` so it calculates clipping for each axis separately. If a node is only clipped on a single axis, the other axis is given `-f32::INFINITY` to `f32::INFINITY` clipping bounds. ## Migration Guide The `Style` property `Overflow` is now a struct with `x` and `y` fields, that allow for per-axis overflow control. Use these helper functions to replace the variants of `Overflow`: * Replace `Overflow::Visible` with `Overflow::visible()` * Replace `Overflow::Hidden` with `Overflow::clip()`

Camera-driven UI (#10559) # Objective Add support for presenting each UI tree on a specific window and viewport, while making as few breaking changes as possible. This PR is meant to resolve the following issues at once, since they're all related. - Fixes #5622 - Fixes #5570 - Fixes #5621 Adopted #5892 , but started over since the current codebase diverged significantly from the original PR branch. Also, I made a decision to propagate component to children instead of recursively iterating over nodes in search for the root. ## Solution Add a new optional component that can be inserted to UI root nodes and propagate to children to specify which camera it should render onto. This is then used to get the render target and the viewport for that UI tree. Since this component is optional, the default behavior should be to render onto the single camera (if only one exist) and warn of ambiguity if multiple cameras exist. This reduces the complexity for users with just one camera, while giving control in contexts where it matters. ## Changelog - Adds `TargetCamera(Entity)` component to specify which camera should a node tree be rendered into. If only one camera exists, this component is optional. - Adds an example of rendering UI to a texture and using it as a material in a 3D world. - Fixes recalculation of physical viewport size when target scale factor changes. This can happen when the window is moved between displays with different DPI. - Changes examples to demonstrate assigning UI to different viewports and windows and make interactions in an offset viewport testable. - Removes `UiCameraConfig`. UI visibility now can be controlled via combination of explicit `TargetCamera` and `Visibility` on the root nodes. --------- Co-authored-by: davier <bricedavier@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecil@gmail.com>

Add z-index support with a predictable UI stack (#5877) # Objective Add consistent UI rendering and interaction where deep nodes inside two different hierarchies will never render on top of one-another by default and offer an escape hatch (z-index) for nodes to change their depth. ## The problem with current implementation The current implementation of UI rendering is broken in that regard, mainly because [it sets the Z value of the `Transform` component based on a "global Z" space](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/crates/bevy_ui/src/update.rs#L43) shared by all nodes in the UI. This doesn't account for the fact that each node's final `GlobalTransform` value will be relative to its parent. This effectively makes the depth unpredictable when two deep trees are rendered on top of one-another. At the moment, it's also up to each part of the UI code to sort all of the UI nodes. The solution that's offered here does the full sorting of UI node entities once and offers the result through a resource so that all systems can use it. ## Solution ### New ZIndex component This adds a new optional `ZIndex` enum component for nodes which offers two mechanism: - `ZIndex::Local(i32)`: Overrides the depth of the node relative to its siblings. - `ZIndex::Global(i32)`: Overrides the depth of the node relative to the UI root. This basically allows any node in the tree to "escape" the parent and be ordered relative to the entire UI. Note that in the current implementation, omitting `ZIndex` on a node has the same result as adding `ZIndex::Local(0)`. Additionally, the "global" stacking context is essentially a way to add your node to the root stacking context, so using `ZIndex::Local(n)` on a root node (one without parent) will share that space with all nodes using `Index::Global(n)`. ### New UiStack resource This adds a new `UiStack` resource which is calculated from both hierarchy and `ZIndex` during UI update and contains a vector of all node entities in the UI, ordered by depth (from farthest from camera to closest). This is exposed publicly by the bevy_ui crate with the hope that it can be used for consistent ordering and to reduce the amount of sorting that needs to be done by UI systems (i.e. instead of sorting everything by `global_transform.z` in every system, this array can be iterated over). ### New z_index example This also adds a new z_index example that showcases the new `ZIndex` component. It's also a good general demo of the new UI stack system, because making this kind of UI was very broken with the old system (e.g. nodes would render on top of each other, not respecting hierarchy or insert order at all). ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1060971/189015985-8ea8f989-0e9d-4601-a7e0-4a27a43a53f9.png) --- ## Changelog - Added the `ZIndex` component to bevy_ui. - Added the `UiStack` resource to bevy_ui, and added implementation in a new `stack.rs` module. - Removed the previous Z updating system from bevy_ui, because it was replaced with the above. - Changed bevy_ui rendering to use UiStack instead of z ordering. - Changed bevy_ui focus/interaction system to use UiStack instead of z ordering. - Added a new z_index example. ## ZIndex demo Here's a demo I wrote to test these features https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1060971/188329295-d7beebd6-9aee-43ab-821e-d437df5dbe8a.mp4 Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>

UI Texture 9 slice (#11600) > Follow up to #10588 > Closes #11749 (Supersedes #11756) Enable Texture slicing for the following UI nodes: - `ImageBundle` - `ButtonBundle` <img width="739" alt="Screenshot 2024-01-29 at 13 57 43" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26703856/37675681-74eb-4689-ab42-024310cf3134"> I also added a collection of `fantazy-ui-borders` from [Kenney's](www.kenney.nl) assets, with the appropriate license (CC). If it's a problem I can use the same textures as the `sprite_slice` example # Work done Added the `ImageScaleMode` component to the targetted bundles, most of the logic is directly reused from `bevy_sprite`. The only additional internal component is the UI specific `ComputedSlices`, which does the same thing as its spritee equivalent but adapted to UI code. Again the slicing is not compatible with `TextureAtlas`, it's something I need to tackle more deeply in the future # Fixes * [x] I noticed that `TextureSlicer::compute_slices` could infinitely loop if the border was larger that the image half extents, now an error is triggered and the texture will fallback to being stretched * [x] I noticed that when using small textures with very small *tiling* options we could generate hundred of thousands of slices. Now I set a minimum size of 1 pixel per slice, which is already ridiculously small, and a warning will be sent at runtime when slice count goes above 1000 * [x] Sprite slicing with `flip_x` or `flip_y` would give incorrect results, correct flipping is now supported to both sprites and ui image nodes thanks to @odecay observation # GPU Alternative I create a separate branch attempting to implementing 9 slicing and tiling directly through the `ui.wgsl` fragment shader. It works but requires sending more data to the GPU: - slice border - tiling factors And more importantly, the actual quad *scale* which is hard to put in the shader with the current code, so that would be for a later iteration

fix: upgrade to winit v0.30 (#13366) # Objective - Upgrade winit to v0.30 - Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13331 ## Solution This is a rewrite/adaptation of the new trait system described and implemented in `winit` v0.30. ## Migration Guide The custom UserEvent is now renamed as WakeUp, used to wake up the loop if anything happens outside the app (a new [custom_user_event](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13366/files#diff-2de8c0a8d3028d0059a3d80ae31b2bbc1cde2595ce2d317ea378fe3e0cf6ef2d) shows this behavior. The internal `UpdateState` has been removed and replaced internally by the AppLifecycle. When changed, the AppLifecycle is sent as an event. The `UpdateMode` now accepts only two values: `Continuous` and `Reactive`, but the latter exposes 3 new properties to enable reactive to device, user or window events. The previous `UpdateMode::Reactive` is now equivalent to `UpdateMode::reactive()`, while `UpdateMode::ReactiveLowPower` to `UpdateMode::reactive_low_power()`. The `ApplicationLifecycle` has been renamed as `AppLifecycle`, and now contains the possible values of the application state inside the event loop: * `Idle`: the loop has not started yet * `Running` (previously called `Started`): the loop is running * `WillSuspend`: the loop is going to be suspended * `Suspended`: the loop is suspended * `WillResume`: the loop is going to be resumed Note: the `Resumed` state has been removed since the resumed app is just running. Finally, now that `winit` enables this, it extends the `WinitPlugin` to support custom events. ## Test platforms - [x] Windows - [x] MacOs - [x] Linux (x11) - [x] Linux (Wayland) - [x] Android - [x] iOS - [x] WASM/WebGPU - [x] WASM/WebGL2 ## Outstanding issues / regressions - [ ] iOS: build failed in CI - blocking, but may just be flakiness - [x] Cross-platform: when the window is maximised, changes in the scale factor don't apply, to make them apply one has to make the window smaller again. (Re-maximising keeps the updated scale factor) - non-blocking, but good to fix - [ ] Android: it's pretty easy to quickly open and close the app and then the music keeps playing when suspended. - non-blocking but worrying - [ ] Web: the application will hang when switching tabs - Not new, duplicate of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13486 - [ ] Cross-platform?: Screenshot failure, `ERROR present_frames: wgpu_core::present: No work has been submitted for this frame before` taking the first screenshot, but after pressing space - non-blocking, but good to fix --------- Co-authored-by: François <francois.mockers@vleue.com>

Reduce power usage with configurable event loop (#3974) # Objective - Reduce power usage for games when not focused. - Reduce power usage to ~0 when a desktop application is minimized (opt-in). - Reduce power usage when focused, only updating on a `winit` event, or the user sends a redraw request. (opt-in) https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2632925/156904387-ec47d7de-7f06-4c6f-8aaf-1e952c1153a2.mp4 Note resource usage in the Task Manager in the above video. ## Solution - Added a type `UpdateMode` that allows users to specify how the winit event loop is updated, without exposing winit types. - Added two fields to `WinitConfig`, both with the `UpdateMode` type. One configures how the application updates when focused, and the other configures how the application behaves when it is not focused. Users can modify this resource manually to set the type of event loop control flow they want. - For convenience, two functions were added to `WinitConfig`, that provide reasonable presets: `game()` (default) and `desktop_app()`. - The `game()` preset, which is used by default, is unchanged from current behavior with one exception: when the app is out of focus the app updates at a minimum of 10fps, or every time a winit event is received. This has a huge positive impact on power use and responsiveness on my machine, which will otherwise continue running the app at many hundreds of fps when out of focus or minimized. - The `desktop_app()` preset is fully reactive, only updating when user input (winit event) is supplied or a `RedrawRequest` event is sent. When the app is out of focus, it only updates on `Window` events - i.e. any winit event that directly interacts with the window. What this means in practice is that the app uses *zero* resources when minimized or not interacted with, but still updates fluidly when the app is out of focus and the user mouses over the application. - Added a `RedrawRequest` event so users can force an update even if there are no events. This is useful in an application when you want to, say, run an animation even when the user isn't providing input. - Added an example `low_power` to demonstrate these changes ## Usage Configuring the event loop: ```rs use bevy::winit::{WinitConfig}; // ... .insert_resource(WinitConfig::desktop_app()) // preset // or .insert_resource(WinitConfig::game()) // preset // or .insert_resource(WinitConfig{ .. }) // manual ``` Requesting a redraw: ```rs use bevy::window::RequestRedraw; // ... fn request_redraw(mut event: EventWriter<RequestRedraw>) { event.send(RequestRedraw); } ``` ## Other details - Because we have a single event loop for multiple windows, every time I've mentioned "focused" above, I more precisely mean, "if at least one bevy window is focused". - Due to a platform bug in winit (https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/1619), we can't simply use `Window::request_redraw()`. As a workaround, this PR will temporarily set the window mode to `Poll` when a redraw is requested. This is then reset to the user's `WinitConfig` setting on the next frame.

Test for ambiguous system ordering in CI (#13950) Progress towards https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7386.

I've tested this version on macOS and Android and on the iOS simulator. # Objective This pull request implements *reflection probes*, which generalize environment maps to allow for multiple environment maps in the same scene, each of which has an axis-aligned bounding box. This is a standard feature of physically-based renderers and was inspired by [the corresponding feature in Blender's Eevee renderer]. ## Solution This is a minimal implementation of reflection probes that allows artists to define cuboid bounding regions associated with environment maps. For every view, on every frame, a system builds up a list of the nearest 4 reflection probes that are within the view's frustum and supplies that list to the shader. The PBR fragment shader searches through the list, finds the first containing reflection probe, and uses it for indirect lighting, falling back to the view's environment map if none is found. Both forward and deferred renderers are fully supported. A reflection probe is an entity with a pair of components, *LightProbe* and *EnvironmentMapLight* (as well as the standard *SpatialBundle*, to position it in the world). The *LightProbe* component (along with the *Transform*) defines the bounding region, while the *EnvironmentMapLight* component specifies the associated diffuse and specular cubemaps. A frequent question is "why two components instead of just one?" The advantages of this setup are: 1. It's readily extensible to other types of light probes, in particular *irradiance volumes* (also known as ambient cubes or voxel global illumination), which use the same approach of bounding cuboids. With a single component that applies to both reflection probes and irradiance volumes, we can share the logic that implements falloff and blending between multiple light probes between both of those features. 2. It reduces duplication between the existing *EnvironmentMapLight* and these new reflection probes. Systems can treat environment maps attached to cameras the same way they treat environment maps applied to reflection probes if they wish. Internally, we gather up all environment maps in the scene and place them in a cubemap array. At present, this means that all environment maps must have the same size, mipmap count, and texture format. A warning is emitted if this restriction is violated. We could potentially relax this in the future as part of the automatic mipmap generation work, which could easily do texture format conversion as part of its preprocessing. An easy way to generate reflection probe cubemaps is to bake them in Blender and use the `export-blender-gi` tool that's part of the [`bevy-baked-gi`] project. This tool takes a `.blend` file containing baked cubemaps as input and exports cubemap images, pre-filtered with an embedded fork of the [glTF IBL Sampler], alongside a corresponding `.scn.ron` file that the scene spawner can use to recreate the reflection probes. Note that this is intentionally a minimal implementation, to aid reviewability. Known issues are: * Reflection probes are basically unsupported on WebGL 2, because WebGL 2 has no cubemap arrays. (Strictly speaking, you can have precisely one reflection probe in the scene if you have no other cubemaps anywhere, but this isn't very useful.) * Reflection probes have no falloff, so reflections will abruptly change when objects move from one bounding region to another. * As mentioned before, all cubemaps in the world of a given type (diffuse or specular) must have the same size, format, and mipmap count. Future work includes: * Blending between multiple reflection probes. * A falloff/fade-out region so that reflected objects disappear gradually instead of vanishing all at once. * Irradiance volumes for voxel-based global illumination. This should reuse much of the reflection probe logic, as they're both GI techniques based on cuboid bounding regions. * Support for WebGL 2, by breaking batches when reflection probes are used. These issues notwithstanding, I think it's best to land this with roughly the current set of functionality, because this patch is useful as is and adding everything above would make the pull request significantly larger and harder to review. --- ## Changelog ### Added * A new *LightProbe* component is available that specifies a bounding region that an *EnvironmentMapLight* applies to. The combination of a *LightProbe* and an *EnvironmentMapLight* offers *reflection probe* functionality similar to that available in other engines.

Cyclic splines (#14106) # Objective Fill a gap in the functionality of our curve constructions by allowing users to easily build cyclic curves from control data. ## Solution Here I opted for something lightweight and discoverable. There is a new `CyclicCubicGenerator` trait with a method `to_curve_cyclic` which uses splines' control data to create curves that are cyclic. For now, its signature is exactly like that of `CubicGenerator` — `to_curve_cyclic` just yields a `CubicCurve`: ```rust /// Implement this on cubic splines that can generate a cyclic cubic curve from their spline parameters. /// /// This makes sense only when the control data can be interpreted cyclically. pub trait CyclicCubicGenerator<P: VectorSpace> { /// Build a cyclic [`CubicCurve`] by computing the interpolation coefficients for each curve segment. fn to_curve_cyclic(&self) -> CubicCurve<P>; } ``` This trait has been implemented for `CubicHermite`, `CubicCardinalSpline`, `CubicBSpline`, and `LinearSpline`: <img width="753" alt="Screenshot 2024-07-01 at 8 58 27 PM" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/69ae0802-3b78-4fb9-b73a-6f842cf3b33c"> <img width="628" alt="Screenshot 2024-07-01 at 9 00 14 PM" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/2992175a-a96c-40fc-b1a1-5206c3572cde"> <img width="606" alt="Screenshot 2024-07-01 at 8 59 36 PM" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/9e99eb3a-dbe6-42da-886c-3d3e00410d03"> <img width="603" alt="Screenshot 2024-07-01 at 8 59 01 PM" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/d037bc0c-396a-43af-ab5c-fad9a29417ef"> (Each type pictured respectively with the control points rendered as green spheres; tangents not pictured in the case of the Hermite spline.) These curves are all parametrized so that the output of `to_curve` and the output of `to_curve_cyclic` are similar. For instance, in `CubicCardinalSpline`, the first output segment is a curve segment joining the first and second control points in each, although it is constructed differently. In the other cases, the segments from `to_curve` are a subset of those in `to_curve_cyclic`, with the new segments appearing at the end. ## Testing I rendered cyclic splines from control data and made sure they looked reasonable. Existing tests are intact for splines where previous code was modified. (Note that the coefficient computation for cyclic spline segments is almost verbatim identical to that of their non-cyclic counterparts.) The Bezier benchmarks also look fine. --- ## Changelog - Added `CyclicCubicGenerator` trait to `bevy_math::cubic_splines` for creating cyclic curves from control data. - Implemented `CyclicCubicGenerator` for `CubicHermite`, `CubicCardinalSpline`, `CubicBSpline`, and `LinearSpline`. - `bevy_math` now depends on `itertools`. --- ## Discussion ### Design decisions The biggest thing here is just the approach taken in the first place: namely, the cyclic constructions use new methods on the same old structs. This choice was made to reduce friction and increase discoverability but also because creating new ones just seemed unnecessary: the underlying data would have been the same, so creating something like "`CyclicCubicBSpline`" whose internally-held control data is regarded as cyclic in nature doesn't really accomplish much — the end result for the user is basically the same either way. Similarly, I don't presently see a pressing need for `to_curve_cyclic` to output something other than a `CubicCurve`, although changing this in the future may be useful. See below. A notable omission here is that `CyclicCubicGenerator` is not implemented for `CubicBezier`. This is not a gap waiting to be filled — `CubicBezier` just doesn't have enough data to join its start with its end without just making up the requisite control points wholesale. In all the cases where `CyclicCubicGenerator` has been implemented here, the fashion in which the ends are connected is quite natural and follows the semantics of the associated spline construction. ### Future direction There are two main things here: 1. We should investigate whether we should do something similar for NURBS. I just don't know that much about NURBS at the moment, so I regarded this as out of scope for the PR. 2. We may eventually want to change the output type of `CyclicCubicGenerator::to_curve_cyclic` to a type which reifies the cyclic nature of the curve output. This wasn't done in this PR because I'm unsure how much value a type-level guarantee of cyclicity actually has, but if some useful features make sense only in the case of cyclic curves, this might be worth pursuing.

Stable interpolation and smooth following (#13741) # Objective Partially address #13408 Rework of #13613 Unify the very nice forms of interpolation specifically present in `bevy_math` under a shared trait upon which further behavior can be based. The ideas in this PR were prompted by [Lerp smoothing is broken by Freya Holmer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSNQuFEDOyQ). ## Solution There is a new trait `StableInterpolate` in `bevy_math::common_traits` which enshrines a quite-specific notion of interpolation with a lot of guarantees: ```rust /// A type with a natural interpolation that provides strong subdivision guarantees. /// /// Although the only required method is `interpolate_stable`, many things are expected of it: /// /// 1. The notion of interpolation should follow naturally from the semantics of the type, so /// that inferring the interpolation mode from the type alone is sensible. /// /// 2. The interpolation recovers something equivalent to the starting value at `t = 0.0` /// and likewise with the ending value at `t = 1.0`. /// /// 3. Importantly, the interpolation must be *subdivision-stable*: for any interpolation curve /// between two (unnamed) values and any parameter-value pairs `(t0, p)` and `(t1, q)`, the /// interpolation curve between `p` and `q` must be the *linear* reparametrization of the original /// interpolation curve restricted to the interval `[t0, t1]`. /// /// The last of these conditions is very strong and indicates something like constant speed. It /// is called "subdivision stability" because it guarantees that breaking up the interpolation /// into segments and joining them back together has no effect. /// /// Here is a diagram depicting it: /// ```text /// top curve = u.interpolate_stable(v, t) /// /// t0 => p t1 => q /// |-------------|---------|-------------| /// 0 => u / \ 1 => v /// / \ /// / \ /// / linear \ /// / reparametrization \ /// / t = t0 * (1 - s) + t1 * s \ /// / \ /// |-------------------------------------| /// 0 => p 1 => q /// /// bottom curve = p.interpolate_stable(q, s) /// ``` /// /// Note that some common forms of interpolation do not satisfy this criterion.

Other areas may choose to implement this trait in order to hook into its functionality, but the stringent requirements must actually be met. This trait bears no direct relationship with `bevy_animation`'s `Animatable` trait, although they may choose to use `interpolate_stable` in their trait implementations if they wish, as both traits involve type-inferred interpolations of the same kind. `StableInterpolate` is not a supertrait of `Animatable` for a couple reasons: 1. Notions of interpolation in animation are generally going to be much more general than those allowed under these constraints. 2. Laying out these generalized interpolation notions is the domain of `bevy_animation` rather than of `bevy_math`. (Consider also that inferring interpolation from types is not universally desirable.) Similarly, this is not implemented on `bevy_color`'s color types, although their current mixing behavior does meet the conditions of the trait. As an aside, the subdivision-stability condition is of interest specifically for the [Curve RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/80), where it also ensures a kind of stability for subsampling. Importantly, this trait ensures that the "smooth following" behavior defined in this PR behaves predictably: ```rust /// Smoothly nudge this value towards the `target` at a given decay rate. The `decay_rate` /// parameter controls how fast the distance between `self` and `target` decays relative to /// the units of `delta`; the intended usage is for `decay_rate` to generally remain fixed, /// while `delta` is something like `delta_time` from an updating system. This produces a /// smooth following of the target that is independent of framerate. /// /// More specifically, when this is called repeatedly, the result is that the distance between /// `self` and a fixed `target` attenuates exponentially, with the rate of this exponential /// decay given by `decay_rate`. /// /// For example, at `decay_rate = 0.0`, this has no effect. /// At `decay_rate = f32::INFINITY`, `self` immediately snaps to `target`. /// In general, higher rates mean that `self` moves more quickly towards `target`. /// /// # Example /// ``` /// # use bevy_math::{Vec3, StableInterpolate}; /// # let delta_time: f32 = 1.0 / 60.0; /// let mut object_position: Vec3 = Vec3::ZERO; /// let target_position: Vec3 = Vec3::new(2.0, 3.0, 5.0); /// // Decay rate of ln(10) => after 1 second, remaining distance is 1/10th /// let decay_rate = f32::ln(10.0); /// // Calling this repeatedly will move `object_position` towards `target_position`: /// object_position.smooth_nudge(&target_position, decay_rate, delta_time); /// ``` fn smooth_nudge(&mut self, target: &Self, decay_rate: f32, delta: f32) { self.interpolate_stable_assign(target, 1.0 - f32::exp(-decay_rate * delta)); } ``` As the documentation indicates, the intention is for this to be called in game update systems, and `delta` would be something like `Time::delta_seconds` in Bevy, allowing positions, orientations, and so on to smoothly follow a target. A new example, `smooth_follow`, demonstrates a basic implementation of this, with a sphere smoothly following a sharply moving target: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/2975848/7124b28b-6361-47e3-acf7-d1578ebd0347 ## Testing Tested by running the example with various parameters.

Add basic light gizmos (#12228) # Objective - Part of #9400. - Add light gizmos for `SpotLight`, `PointLight` and `DirectionalLight`. ## Solution - Add a `ShowLightGizmo` and its related gizmo group and plugin, that shows a gizmo for all lights of an entities when inserted on it. Light display can also be toggled globally through the gizmo config in the same way it can already be done for `Aabb`s. - Add distinct segment setters for height and base one `Cone3dBuilder`. This allow having a properly rounded base without too much edges along the height. The doc comments explain how to ensure height and base connect when setting different values. Gizmo for the three light types without radius with the depth bias set to -1: ![without-radius](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/18357657/699d0154-f367-4727-9b09-8b458d96a0e2) With Radius: ![with-radius](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/18357657/f3af003e-dbba-427a-a305-c5cc1676e340) Possible future improvements: - Add a billboarded sprite with a distinct sprite for each light type. - Display the intensity of the light somehow (no idea how to represent that apart from some text). --- ## Changelog ### Added - The new `ShowLightGizmo`, part of the `LightGizmoPlugin` and configurable globally with `LightGizmoConfigGroup`, allows drawing gizmo for `PointLight`, `SpotLight` and `DirectionalLight`. The gizmos color behavior can be controlled with the `LightGizmoColor` member of `ShowLightGizmo` and `LightGizmoConfigGroup`. - The cone gizmo builder (`Cone3dBuilder`) now allows setting a differing number of segments for the base and height. --------- Co-authored-by: Gino Valente <49806985+MrGVSV@users.noreply.github.com>

Add first person view model example (#13828) # Objective A very common way to organize a first-person view is to split it into two kinds of models: - The *view model* is the model that represents the player's body. - The *world model* is everything else. The reason for this distinction is that these two models should be rendered with different FOVs. The view model is typically designed and animated with a very specific FOV in mind, so it is generally *fixed* and cannot be changed by a player. The world model, on the other hand, should be able to change its FOV to accommodate the player's preferences for the following reasons: - *Accessibility*: How prone is the player to motion sickness? A wider FOV can help. - *Tactical preference*: Does the player want to see more of the battlefield? Or have a more zoomed-in view for precision aiming? - *Physical considerations*: How well does the in-game FOV match the player's real-world FOV? Are they sitting in front of a monitor or playing on a TV in the living room? How big is the screen? ## Solution I've added an example implementing the described setup as follows. The `Player` is an entity holding two cameras, one for each model. The view model camera has a fixed FOV of 70 degrees, while the world model camera has a variable FOV that can be changed by the player. I use different `RenderLayers` to select what to render. - The world model camera has no explicit `RenderLayers` component, so it uses the layer 0. All static objects in the scene are also on layer 0 for the same reason. - The view model camera has a `RenderLayers` component with layer 1, so it only renders objects explicitly assigned to layer 1. The arm of the player is one such object. The order of the view model camera is additionally bumped to 1 to ensure it renders on top of the world model. - The light source in the scene must illuminate both the view model and the world model, so it is assigned to both layers 0 and 1. To better see the effect, the player can move the camera by dragging their mouse and change the world model's FOV with the arrow keys. The arrow up key maps to "decrease FOV" and the arrow down key maps to "increase FOV". This sounds backwards on paper, but is more intuitive when actually changing the FOV in-game since a decrease in FOV looks like a zoom-in. I intentionally do not allow changing the view model's FOV even though it would be illustrative because that would be an anti-pattern and bloat the code a bit. The example is called `first_person_view_model` and not just `first_person` because I want to highlight that this is not a simple flycam, but actually renders the player. ## Testing Default FOV: <img width="1392" alt="image" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/9047632/8c2e804f-fac2-48c7-8a22-d85af999dfb2"> Decreased FOV: <img width="1392" alt="image" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/9047632/1733b3e5-f583-4214-a454-3554e3cbd066"> Increased FOV: <img width="1392" alt="image" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/9047632/0b0640e6-5743-46f6-a79a-7181ba9678e8"> Note that the white bar on the right represents the player's arm, which is more obvious in-game because you can move the camera around.

I want to bring this up because the use-case presented here is extremely common in first-person games and important for accessibility. It would be good to have a blessed and easy way of how to achieve it. I'm also not happy about how I get the `perspective` variable in `change_fov`. Very open to suggestions :) ## Related issues - Addresses parts of #12658 - Addresses parts of #12588 --------- Co-authored-by: Pascal Hertleif <killercup@gmail.com>

Implement visibility ranges, also known as hierarchical levels of detail (HLODs). (#12916) Implement visibility ranges, also known as hierarchical levels of detail (HLODs). This commit introduces a new component, `VisibilityRange`, which allows developers to specify camera distances in which meshes are to be shown and hidden. Hiding meshes happens early in the rendering pipeline, so this feature can be used for level of detail optimization. Additionally, this feature is properly evaluated per-view, so different views can show different levels of detail. This feature differs from proper mesh LODs, which can be implemented later. Engines generally implement true mesh LODs later in the pipeline; they're typically more efficient than HLODs with GPU-driven rendering. However, mesh LODs are more limited than HLODs, because they require the lower levels of detail to be meshes with the same vertex layout and shader (and perhaps the same material) as the original mesh. Games often want to use objects other than meshes to replace distant models, such as *octahedral imposters* or *billboard imposters*. The reason why the feature is called *hierarchical level of detail* is that HLODs can replace multiple meshes with a single mesh when the camera is far away. This can be useful for reducing drawcall count. Note that `VisibilityRange` doesn't automatically propagate down to children; it must be placed on every mesh. Crossfading between different levels of detail is supported, using the standard 4x4 ordered dithering pattern from [1]. The shader code to compute the dithering patterns should be well-optimized. The dithering code is only active when visibility ranges are in use for the mesh in question, so that we don't lose early Z. Cascaded shadow maps show the HLOD level of the view they're associated with. Point light and spot light shadow maps, which have no CSMs, display all HLOD levels that are visible in any view. To support this efficiently and avoid doing visibility checks multiple times, we precalculate all visible HLOD levels for each entity with a `VisibilityRange` during the `check_visibility_range` system. A new example, `visibility_range`, has been added to the tree, as well as a new low-poly version of the flight helmet model to go with it. It demonstrates use of the visibility range feature to provide levels of detail. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_dithering#Threshold_map [^1]: Unreal doesn't have a feature that exactly corresponds to visibility ranges, but Unreal's HLOD system serves roughly the same purpose. ## Changelog ### Added * A new `VisibilityRange` component is available to conditionally enable entity visibility at camera distances, with optional crossfade support.

Implement opt-in sharp screen-space reflections for the deferred renderer, with improved raymarching code. (#13418) This commit, a revamp of #12959, implements screen-space reflections (SSR), which approximate real-time reflections based on raymarching through the depth buffer and copying samples from the final rendered frame. This patch is a relatively minimal implementation of SSR, so as to provide a flexible base on which to customize and build in the future. However, it's based on the production-quality [raymarching code by Tomasz Stachowiak](https://gist.github.com/h3r2tic/9c8356bdaefbe80b1a22ae0aaee192db). For a general basic overview of screen-space reflections, see [1](https://lettier.github.io/3d-game-shaders-for-beginners/screen-space-reflection.html). The raymarching shader uses the basic algorithm of tracing forward in large steps, refining that trace in smaller increments via binary search, and then using the secant method. No temporal filtering or roughness blurring, is performed at all; for this reason, SSR currently only operates on very shiny surfaces. No acceleration via the hierarchical Z-buffer is implemented (though note that https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12899 will add the infrastructure for this). Reflections are traced at full resolution, which is often considered slow. All of these improvements and more can be follow-ups. SSR is built on top of the deferred renderer and is currently only supported in that mode. Forward screen-space reflections are possible albeit uncommon (though e.g. *Doom Eternal* uses them); however, they require tracing from the previous frame, which would add complexity. This patch leaves the door open to implementing SSR in the forward rendering path but doesn't itself have such an implementation. Screen-space reflections aren't supported in WebGL 2, because they require sampling from the depth buffer, which Naga can't do because of a bug (`sampler2DShadow` is incorrectly generated instead of `sampler2D`; this is the same reason why depth of field is disabled on that platform). To add screen-space reflections to a camera, use the `ScreenSpaceReflectionsBundle` bundle or the `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings` component. In addition to `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings`, `DepthPrepass` and `DeferredPrepass` must also be present for the reflections to show up. The `ScreenSpaceReflectionsSettings` component contains several settings that artists can tweak, and also comes with sensible defaults. A new example, `ssr`, has been added. It's loosely based on the [three.js ocean sample](https://threejs.org/examples/webgl_shaders_ocean.html), but all the assets are original. Note that the three.js demo has no screen-space reflections and instead renders a mirror world. In contrast to #12959, this demo tests not only a cube but also a more complex model (the flight helmet). ## Changelog ### Added * Screen-space reflections can be enabled for very smooth surfaces by adding the `ScreenSpaceReflections` component to a camera. Deferred rendering must be enabled for the reflections to appear. ![Screenshot 2024-05-18 143555](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/b8675b39-8a89-433e-a34e-1b9ee1233267) ![Screenshot 2024-05-18 143606](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/cc9e1cd0-9951-464a-9a08-e589210e5606)

Implement filmic color grading. (#13121) This commit expands Bevy's existing tonemapping feature to a complete set of filmic color grading tools, matching those of engines like Unity, Unreal, and Godot. The following features are supported: * White point adjustment. This is inspired by Unity's implementation of the feature, but simplified and optimized. *Temperature* and *tint* control the adjustments to the *x* and *y* chromaticity values of [CIE 1931]. Following Unity, the adjustments are made relative to the [D65 standard illuminant] in the [LMS color space]. * Hue rotation. This simply converts the RGB value to [HSV], alters the hue, and converts back. * Color correction. This allows the *gamma*, *gain*, and *lift* values to be adjusted according to the standard [ASC CDL combined function]. * Separate color correction for shadows, midtones, and highlights. Blender's source code was used as a reference for the implementation of this. The midtone ranges can be adjusted by the user. To avoid abrupt color changes, a small crossfade is used between the different sections of the image, again following Blender's formulas. A new example, `color_grading`, has been added, offering a GUI to change all the color grading settings. It uses the same test scene as the existing `tonemapping` example, which has been factored out into a shared glTF scene.

You can migrate code with the `ColorGrading::all_sections` and `ColorGrading::all_sections_mut` functions, which access and/or update all sections at once. * `ColorGrading::post_saturation` and `ColorGrading::exposure` are now fields of `ColorGrading::global`. ## Screenshots ![Screenshot 2024-04-27 143144](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/c1de5894-917d-4101-b5c9-e644d141a941) ![Screenshot 2024-04-27 143216](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/da393c8a-d747-42f5-b47c-6465044c788d)

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.

Implement fast depth of field as a postprocessing effect. (#13009) This commit implements the [depth of field] effect, simulating the blur of objects out of focus of the virtual lens. Either the [hexagonal bokeh] effect or a faster Gaussian blur may be used. In both cases, the implementation is a simple separable two-pass convolution. This is not the most physically-accurate real-time bokeh technique that exists; Unreal Engine has [a more accurate implementation] of "cinematic depth of field" from 2018. However, it's simple, and most engines provide something similar as a fast option, often called "mobile" depth of field. The general approach is outlined in [a blog post from 2017]. We take advantage of the fact that both Gaussian blurs and hexagonal bokeh blurs are *separable*. This means that their 2D kernels can be reduced to a small number of 1D kernels applied one after another, asymptotically reducing the amount of work that has to be done. Gaussian blurs can be accomplished by blurring horizontally and then vertically, while hexagonal bokeh blurs can be done with a vertical blur plus a diagonal blur, plus two diagonal blurs. In both cases, only two passes are needed. Bokeh requires the first pass to have a second render target and requires two subpasses in the second pass, which decreases its performance relative to the Gaussian blur. The bokeh blur is generally more aesthetically pleasing than the Gaussian blur, as it simulates the effect of a camera more accurately. The shape of the bokeh circles are determined by the number of blades of the aperture. In our case, we use a hexagon, which is usually considered specific to lower-quality cameras. (This is a downside of the fast hexagon approach compared to the higher-quality approaches.) The blur amount is generally specified by the [f-number], which we use to compute the focal length from the film size and FOV. By default, we simulate standard cinematic cameras of f/1 and [Super 35]. The developer can customize these values as desired. A new example has been added to demonstrate depth of field. It allows customization of the mode (Gaussian vs. bokeh), focal distance and f-numbers. The test scene is inspired by a [blog post on depth of field in Unity]; however, the effect is implemented in a completely different way from that blog post, and all the assets (textures, etc.) are original.

Implement volumetric fog and volumetric lighting, also known as light shafts or god rays. (#13057) This commit implements a more physically-accurate, but slower, form of fog than the `bevy_pbr::fog` module does. Notably, this *volumetric fog* allows for light beams from directional lights to shine through, creating what is known as *light shafts* or *god rays*. To add volumetric fog to a scene, add `VolumetricFogSettings` to the camera, and add `VolumetricLight` to directional lights that you wish to be volumetric. `VolumetricFogSettings` has numerous settings that allow you to define the accuracy of the simulation, as well as the look of the fog. Currently, only interaction with directional lights that have shadow maps is supported. Note that the overhead of the effect scales directly with the number of directional lights in use, so apply `VolumetricLight` sparingly for the best results. The overall algorithm, which is implemented as a postprocessing effect, is a combination of the techniques described in [Scratchapixel] and [this blog post]. It uses raymarching in screen space, transformed into shadow map space for sampling and combined with physically-based modeling of absorption and scattering. Bevy employs the widely-used [Henyey-Greenstein phase function] to model asymmetry; this essentially allows light shafts to fade into and out of existence as the user views them. Volumetric rendering is a huge subject, and I deliberately kept the scope of this commit small. Possible follow-ups include: 1. Raymarching at a lower resolution. 2. A post-processing blur (especially useful when combined with (1)). 3. Supporting point lights and spot lights. 4. Supporting lights with no shadow maps. 5. Supporting irradiance volumes and reflection probes. 6. Voxel components that reuse the volumetric fog code to create voxel shapes. 7. *Horizon: Zero Dawn*-style clouds. These are all useful, but out of scope of this patch for now, to keep things tidy and easy to review. A new example, `volumetric_fog`, has been added to demonstrate the effect. ## Changelog ### Added * A new component, `VolumetricFog`, is available, to allow for a more physically-accurate, but more resource-intensive, form of fog. * A new component, `VolumetricLight`, can be placed on directional lights to make them interact with `VolumetricFog`. Notably, this allows such lights to emit light shafts/god rays. ![Screenshot 2024-04-21 162808](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/7a1fc81d-eed5-4735-9419-286c496391a9) ![Screenshot 2024-04-21 132005](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/e6d3b5ca-8f59-488d-a3de-15e95aaf4995) [Scratchapixel]: https://www.scratchapixel.com/lessons/3d-basic-rendering/volume-rendering-for-developers/intro-volume-rendering.html [this blog post]: https://www.alexandre-pestana.com/volumetric-lights/ [Henyey-Greenstein phase function]: https://www.pbr-book.org/4ed/Volume_Scattering/Phase_Functions#TheHenyeyndashGreensteinPhaseFunction

Implement PBR anisotropy per `KHR_materials_anisotropy`. (#13450) This commit implements support for physically-based anisotropy in Bevy's `StandardMaterial`, following the specification for the [`KHR_materials_anisotropy`] glTF extension. [*Anisotropy*] (not to be confused with [anisotropic filtering]) is a PBR feature that allows roughness to vary along the tangent and bitangent directions of a mesh. In effect, this causes the specular light to stretch out into lines instead of a round lobe. This is useful for modeling brushed metal, hair, and similar surfaces. Support for anisotropy is a common feature in major game and graphics engines; Unity, Unreal, Godot, three.js, and Blender all support it to varying degrees. Two new parameters have been added to `StandardMaterial`: `anisotropy_strength` and `anisotropy_rotation`. Anisotropy strength, which ranges from 0 to 1, represents how much the roughness differs between the tangent and the bitangent of the mesh. In effect, it controls how stretched the specular highlight is. Anisotropy rotation allows the roughness direction to differ from the tangent of the model. In addition to these two fixed parameters, an *anisotropy texture* can be supplied. Such a texture should be a 3-channel RGB texture, where the red and green values specify a direction vector using the same conventions as a normal map ([0, 1] color values map to [-1, 1] vector values), and the the blue value represents the strength. This matches the format that the [`KHR_materials_anisotropy`] specification requires. Such textures should be loaded as linear and not sRGB. Note that this texture does consume one additional texture binding in the standard material shader. The glTF loader has been updated to properly parse the `KHR_materials_anisotropy` extension. A new example, `anisotropy`, has been added. This example loads and displays the barn lamp example from the [`glTF-Sample-Assets`] repository. Note that the textures were rather large, so I shrunk them down and converted them to a mixture of JPEG and KTX2 format, in the interests of saving space in the Bevy repository.

A new example, `anisotropy`, has been added. This example loads and displays the barn lamp example from the [`glTF-Sample-Assets`] repository. Note that the textures were rather large, so I shrunk them down and converted them to a mixture of JPEG and KTX2 format, in the interests of saving space in the Bevy repository.

Allow volumetric fog to be localized to specific, optionally voxelized, regions. (#14099) Currently, volumetric fog is global and affects the entire scene uniformly. This is inadequate for many use cases, such as local smoke effects. To address this problem, this commit introduces *fog volumes*, which are axis-aligned bounding boxes (AABBs) that specify fog parameters inside their boundaries. Such volumes can also specify a *density texture*, a 3D texture of voxels that specifies the density of the fog at each point. To create a fog volume, add a `FogVolume` component to an entity (which is included in the new `FogVolumeBundle` convenience bundle). Like light probes, a fog volume is conceptually a 1×1×1 cube centered on the origin; a transform can be used to position and resize this region. Many of the fields on the existing `VolumetricFogSettings` have migrated to the new `FogVolume` component. `VolumetricFogSettings` on a camera is still needed to enable volumetric fog. However, by itself `VolumetricFogSettings` is no longer sufficient to enable volumetric fog; a `FogVolume` must be present. Applications that wish to retain the old global fog behavior can simply surround the scene with a large fog volume. By way of implementation, this commit converts the volumetric fog shader from a full-screen shader to one applied to a mesh. The strategy is different depending on whether the camera is inside or outside the fog volume. If the camera is inside the fog volume, the mesh is simply a plane scaled to the viewport, effectively falling back to a full-screen pass. If the camera is outside the fog volume, the mesh is a cube transformed to coincide with the boundaries of the fog volume's AABB. Importantly, in the latter case, only the front faces of the cuboid are rendered. Instead of treating the boundaries of the fog as a sphere centered on the camera position, as we did prior to this patch, we raytrace the far planes of the AABB to determine the portion of each ray contained within the fog volume. We then raymarch in shadow map space as usual. If a density texture is present, we modulate the fixed density value with the trilinearly-interpolated value from that texture. Furthermore, this patch introduces optional jitter to fog volumes, intended for use with TAA. This modifies the position of the ray from frame to frame using interleaved gradient noise, in order to reduce aliasing artifacts. Many implementations of volumetric fog in games use this technique. Note that this patch makes no attempt to write a motion vector; this is because when a view ray intersects multiple voxels there's no single direction of motion. Consequently, fog volumes can have ghosting artifacts, but because fog is "ghostly" by its nature, these artifacts are less objectionable than they would be for opaque objects. A new example, `fog_volumes`, has been added. It demonstrates a single fog volume containing a voxelized representation of the Stanford bunny. The existing `volumetric_fog` example has been updated to use the new local volumetrics API. ## Changelog ### Added * Local `FogVolume`s are now supported, to localize fog to specific regions. They can optionally have 3D density voxel textures for precise control over the distribution of the fog. ### Changed * `VolumetricFogSettings` on a camera no longer enables volumetric fog; instead, it simply enables the processing of `FogVolume`s within the scene. ## Migration Guide * A `FogVolume` is now necessary in order to enable volumetric fog, in addition to `VolumetricFogSettings` on the camera. Existing uses of volumetric fog can be migrated by placing a large `FogVolume` surrounding the scene. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: François Mockers <mockersf@gmail.com>

Add an example for doing movement in fixed timesteps (#14223) _copy-pasted from my doc comment in the code_ # Objective This example shows how to properly handle player input, advance a physics simulation in a fixed timestep, and display the results. The classic source for how and why this is done is Glenn Fiedler's article [Fix Your Timestep!](https://gafferongames.com/post/fix_your_timestep/). ## Motivation The naive way of moving a player is to just update their position like so: ```rust transform.translation += velocity; ``` The issue here is that the player's movement speed will be tied to the frame rate. Faster machines will move the player faster, and slower machines will move the player slower. In fact, you can observe this today when running some old games that did it this way on modern hardware! The player will move at a breakneck pace. The more sophisticated way is to update the player's position based on the time that has passed: ```rust transform.translation += velocity * time.delta_seconds(); ``` This way, velocity represents a speed in units per second, and the player will move at the same speed regardless of the frame rate. However, this can still be problematic if the frame rate is very low or very high. If the frame rate is very low, the player will move in large jumps. This may lead to a player moving in such large jumps that they pass through walls or other obstacles. In general, you cannot expect a physics simulation to behave nicely with *any* delta time. Ideally, we want to have some stability in what kinds of delta times we feed into our physics simulation. The solution is using a fixed timestep. This means that we advance the physics simulation by a fixed amount at a time. If the real time that passed between two frames is less than the fixed timestep, we simply don't advance the physics simulation at all. If it is more, we advance the physics simulation multiple times until we catch up. You can read more about how Bevy implements this in the documentation for [`bevy::time::Fixed`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/time/struct.Fixed.html). This leaves us with a last problem, however. If our physics simulation may advance zero or multiple times per frame, there may be frames in which the player's position did not need to be updated at all, and some where it is updated by a large amount that resulted from running the physics simulation multiple times. This is physically correct, but visually jarring. Imagine a player moving in a straight line, but depending on the frame rate, they may sometimes advance by a large amount and sometimes not at all. Visually, we want the player to move smoothly. This is why we need to separate the player's position in the physics simulation from the player's position in the visual representation. The visual representation can then be interpolated smoothly based on the last and current actual player position in the physics simulation. This is a tradeoff: every visual frame is now slightly lagging behind the actual physical frame, but in return, the player's movement will appear smooth. There are other ways to compute the visual representation of the player, such as extrapolation. See the [documentation of the lightyear crate](https://cbournhonesque.github.io/lightyear/book/concepts/advanced_replication/visual_interpolation.html) for a nice overview of the different methods and their tradeoffs. ## Implementation - The player's velocity is stored in a `Velocity` component. This is the speed in units per second. - The player's current position in the physics simulation is stored in a `PhysicalTranslation` component. - The player's previous position in the physics simulation is stored in a `PreviousPhysicalTranslation` component. - The player's visual representation is stored in Bevy's regular `Transform` component. - Every frame, we go through the following steps: - Advance the physics simulation by one fixed timestep in the `advance_physics` system. This is run in the `FixedUpdate` schedule, which runs before the `Update` schedule. - Update the player's visual representation in the `update_displayed_transform` system. This interpolates between the player's previous and current position in the physics simulation. - Update the player's velocity based on the player's input in the `handle_input` system. ## Relevant Issues Related to #1259. I'm also fairly sure I've seen an issue somewhere made by @alice-i-cecile about showing how to move a character correctly in a fixed timestep, but I cannot find it.

Start a built-in postprocessing stack, and implement chromatic aberration in it. (#13695) This commit creates a new built-in postprocessing shader that's designed to hold miscellaneous postprocessing effects, and starts it off with chromatic aberration. Possible future effects include vignette, film grain, and lens distortion. [Chromatic aberration] is a common postprocessing effect that simulates lenses that fail to focus all colors of light to a single point. It's often used for impact effects and/or horror games. This patch uses the technique from *Inside* ([Gjøl & Svendsen 2016]), which allows the developer to customize the particular color pattern to achieve different effects. Unity HDRP uses the same technique, while Unreal has a hard-wired fixed color pattern. A new example, `post_processing`, has been added, in order to demonstrate the technique. The existing `post_processing` shader has been renamed to `custom_post_processing`, for clarity.

Use `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` to improve docs readability (#14703) # Objective - Fixes #14697 ## Solution This PR modifies the existing `all_tuples!` macro to optionally accept a `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` attribute in its input. If the attribute is present, each invocation of the impl macro gets the correct attributes (i.e. the first impl receives `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` while the other impls are hidden using `#[doc(hidden)]`. Impls for the empty tuple (unit type) are left untouched (that's what the [standard library](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html#impl-PartialEq-for-()) and [serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-()) do). To work around https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8811 and to get impls on re-exports to correctly show up as variadic, `--cfg docsrs_dep` is passed when building the docs for the toplevel `bevy` crate. `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` only works on tuples and fn pointers, so impls for structs like `AnyOf<(T1, T2, ..., Tn)>` are unchanged. ## Testing I built the docs locally using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' RUSTFLAGS='--cfg docsrs_dep' cargo +nightly doc --no-deps --workspace` and checked the documentation page of a trait both in its original crate and the re-exported version in `bevy`. The description should correctly mention for how many tuple items the trait is implemented. I added `rustc-args` for docs.rs to the `bevy` crate, I hope there aren't any other notable crates that re-export `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` traits. --- ## Showcase `bevy_ecs::query::QueryData`: <img width="1015" alt="Screenshot 2024-08-12 at 16 41 28" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d40136ed-6731-475f-91a0-9df255cd24e3"> `bevy::ecs::query::QueryData` (re-export): <img width="1005" alt="Screenshot 2024-08-12 at 16 42 57" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/71d44cf0-0ab0-48b0-9a51-5ce332594e12"> ## Original Description <details> Resolves #14697 Submitting as a draft for now, very WIP. Unfortunately, the docs don't show the variadics nicely when looking at reexported items. For example: `bevy_ecs::bundle::Bundle` correctly shows the variadic impl: ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90bf8af1-1d1f-4714-9143-cdd3d0199998) while `bevy::ecs::bundle::Bundle` (the reexport) shows all the impls (not good): ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/439c428e-f712-465b-bec2-481f7bf5870b) Built using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' cargo +nightly doc --workspace --no-deps` (`--no-deps` because of wgpu-core). Maybe I missed something or this is a limitation in the *totally not private* `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` thingy. In any case I desperately need some sleep now :)) </details>
