This gives users a hint to use the GitHub "Discussions" for questions about bevy, instead of filing an issue.
## Objective
> Users sometimes file unhelpful issues when asking questions about how to use Bevy.
We should provide a link to the Discussion board in the list of "new Issue" options. This hopefully allows users to better find this option and reduces the number of question-issues.
- fixes#5150
## Solution
- add a small config.yml that configures the link
Looks like this (currently live on my local fork https://github.com/themasch/bevy/issues/new/choose):

## Open questsions
- I am unsure about the wording.
# Objective
`EntityMap` lacks documentation, don't have `len()` / `is_empty` and `insert` doesn't work as in the regular HashMap`.
## Solution
* Add `len()` method.
* Return previously mapped entity from `insert()` as in the regular `HashMap`.
* Add documentation.
---
## Changelog
* Add `EntityMap::len()`.
* Return previously mapped entity from `EntityMap::insert()` as in the regular `HashMap`.
* Add documentation for `EntityMap` methods.
# Objective
It is currently hard to configure the `WindowPlugin`, as it is added as part of the `DefaultPlugins`. Ideally this should not be difficult.
## Solution
Remove the configuration from the plugin itself and put it as a `Resource`, similar to how it is done for almost all other plugins.
## Migration Guide
If you are currently configuring the behavior of the `WindowPlugin`, by constructing it manually, then you will need to instead create add the `WindowSettings` as a resource.
# Objective
Add texture sampling to the GLSL shader example, as naga does not support the commonly used sampler2d type.
Fixes#5059
## Solution
- Align the shader_material_glsl example behaviour with the shader_material example, as the later includes texture sampling.
- Update the GLSL shader to do texture sampling the way naga supports it, and document the way naga does not support it.
## Changelog
- The shader_material_glsl example has been updated to demonstrate texture sampling using the GLSL shading language.

# Objective
In bevy 0.7, `CameraUi` was a component specifically added to cameras
that display the UI. Since camera-driven rendering was merged, it
actually does the opposite! This will make it difficult for current
users to adapt to 0.8.
## Solution
To avoid unnecessary confusion, we rename `CameraUi` into
`UiCameraConfig`.
---
## Changelog
- Rename `CameraUi` to `UiCameraConfig`
# Objective
Remove suffixes from reflect component and resource methods to closer match bevy norms.
## Solution
removed suffixes and also fixed a spelling error
---
# Objective
When `miri` runs in our build system to detect unsoundness, its output can be very unhelpful, as the tests are all run in parallel.
## Solution
Add a comment documenting the extremely obvious 10/10 command used by @BoxyUwU in #4959.
I've stuck this in the CI file, as it seems like the most obvious place to check when frustrated. I didn't put it in CONTRIBUTING.md because this is an eldritch abomination and will never be useful to new contributors.
# Objective
- Help users fix issue when their app panic when executing a command on a despawned entity
## Solution
- Add an error code and a page describing how to debug the issue
# Objective
Make it easier to create pipelines derived from the `Material2dPipeline`. Currently this is made difficult because the fields of `Material2dKey` are private.
## Solution
Make the fields public.
# Objective
- To implement `Reflect` for more glam types.
## Solution
insert `impl_reflect_struct` invocations for more glam types. I am not sure about the boolean vectors, since none of them implement `Serde::Serialize/Deserialize`, and the SIMD versions don't have public fields.
I do still think implementing reflection is useful for BVec's since then they can be incorporated into `Reflect`'ed components and set dynamically even if as a whole + it's more consistent.
## Changelog
Implemented `Reflect` for the following types
- BVec2
- BVec3
- **BVec3A** (on simd supported platforms only)
- BVec4
- **BVec4A** (on simd supported platforms only)
- Mat2
- Mat3A
- DMat2
- Affine2
- Affine3A
- DAffine2
- DAffine3
- EulerRot
# Objective
Reduce the boilerplate code needed to make draw order sorting work correctly when queuing items through new common functionality. Also fix several instances in the bevy code-base (mostly examples) where this boilerplate appears to be incorrect.
## Solution
- Moved the logic for handling back-to-front vs front-to-back draw ordering into the PhaseItems by inverting the sort key ordering of Opaque3d and AlphaMask3d. The means that all the standard 3d rendering phases measure distance in the same way. Clients of these structs no longer need to know to negate the distance.
- Added a new utility struct, ViewRangefinder3d, which encapsulates the maths needed to calculate a "distance" from an ExtractedView and a mesh's transform matrix.
- Converted all the occurrences of the distance calculations in Bevy and its examples to use ViewRangefinder3d. Several of these occurrences appear to be buggy because they don't invert the view matrix or don't negate the distance where appropriate. This leads me to the view that Bevy should expose a facility to correctly perform this calculation.
## Migration Guide
Code which creates Opaque3d, AlphaMask3d, or Transparent3d phase items _should_ use ViewRangefinder3d to calculate the distance value.
Code which manually calculated the distance for Opaque3d or AlphaMask3d phase items and correctly negated the z value will no longer depth sort correctly. However, incorrect depth sorting for these types will not impact the rendered output as sorting is only a performance optimisation when drawing with depth-testing enabled. Code which manually calculated the distance for Transparent3d phase items will continue to work as before.
# Objective
- Document how to do profiling with Tracy
# Solution
- The documentation of setting `RUST_LOG=info` in order to capture `wgpu` spans depends on https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5182
# Objective
`SAFETY` comments are meant to be placed before `unsafe` blocks and should contain the reasoning of why in this case the usage of unsafe is okay. This is useful when reading the code because it makes it clear which assumptions are required for safety, and makes it easier to spot possible unsoundness holes. It also forces the code writer to think of something to write and maybe look at the safety contracts of any called unsafe methods again to double-check their correct usage.
There's a clippy lint called `undocumented_unsafe_blocks` which warns when using a block without such a comment.
## Solution
- since clippy expects `SAFETY` instead of `SAFE`, rename those
- add `SAFETY` comments in more places
- for the last remaining 3 places, add an `#[allow()]` and `// TODO` since I wasn't comfortable enough with the code to justify their safety
- add ` #![warn(clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks)]` to `bevy_ecs`
### Note for reviewers
The first commit only renames `SAFETY` to `SAFE` so it doesn't need a thorough review.

# Objective
`glam` is an optional feature in `bevy_reflect` and there is a separate `mod test { #[cfg(feature = "glam")] mod glam { .. }}`.
The `reflect_downcast` test is not in that module and doesn't depend on glam, which breaks `cargo test -p bevy_reflect` without the `glam` feature.
## Solution
- Remove the glam types from the test, they're not relevant to it
## Objective
Fixes: #5110
## Solution
- Moved benches into separate modules according to the part of ECS they are testing.
- Made so all ECS benches are included in one `benches.rs` so they don’t need to be added separately in `Cargo.toml`.
- Renamed a bunch of files to have more coherent names.
- Merged `schedule.rs` and `system_schedule.rs` into one file.
@BoxyUwU says that she always looks for this here, following the example of [tetra](https://github.com/17cupsofcoffee/tetra).
I think this is a pretty sensible idea!
# Objective
We don't have reflection for resources.
## Solution
Introduce reflection for resources.
Continues #3580 (by @Davier), related to #3576.
---
## Changelog
### Added
* Reflection on a resource type (by adding `ReflectResource`):
```rust
#[derive(Reflect)]
#[reflect(Resource)]
struct MyResourse;
```
### Changed
* Rename `ReflectComponent::add_component` into `ReflectComponent::insert_component` for consistency.
## Migration Guide
* Rename `ReflectComponent::add_component` into `ReflectComponent::insert_component`.
# Objective
This is a rebase of #3701 which is currently scheduled for 0.8 but is marked for adoption.
> Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/3609
## Solution
> - add an `insert_boxed()` method on the `Map` trait
> - implement it for `HashMap` using a new `FromReflect` generic bound
> - add a `map_apply()` helper method to implement `Map::apply()`, that inserts new values instead of ignoring them

TODO

# Objective
- I think our codebase is hit badly by rust-lang/rust-analyzer#11410
- None of our uses of cyclic dependencies are remotely necessary
- Note that these are false positives in rust-analyzer, however it's probably easier for us to work around this
- Note also that I haven't confirmed that this is causing rust-analyzer to not work very well, but it's not a bad guess.
## Solution
- Remove our cyclic dependencies
- Import the trick from #2851 for no-op plugin groups.
# Objective
This is a common and useful type. I frequently use this when working with `Events` resource directly, typically when caching the data or manipulating the `World` directly.
This is also useful when manually configuring the cleanup strategy for events.
# Objective
Transform screen-space coordinates into world space in shaders. (My use case is for generating rays for ray tracing with the same perspective as the 3d camera).
## Solution
Add `inverse_projection` and `inverse_view_proj` fields to shader view uniform
---
## Changelog
### Added
`inverse_projection` and `inverse_view_proj` fields to shader view uniform
## Note
It'd probably be good to double-check that I did the matrix multiplication in the right order for `inverse_proj_view`. Thanks!
# Objective
Intended to close#5073
## Solution
Adds a stress test that use TextureAtlas based on the existing many_sprites test using the animated sprite implementation from the sprite_sheet example.
In order to satisfy the goals described in #5073 the animations are all slightly offset.
Of note is that the original stress test was designed to test fullstrum culling. I kept this test similar as to facilitate easy comparisons between the use of TextureAtlas and without.
# Objective
- Fixes#4993
## Solution
- ~~Add `centered` property to `WindowDescriptor`~~
- Add `WindowPosition` enum
- `WindowDescriptor.position` is now `WindowPosition` instead of `Option<Vec2>`
- Add `center_window` function to `Window`
## Migration Guide
- If using `WindowDescriptor`, replace `position: None` with `position: WindowPosition::Default` and `position: Some(vec2)` with `WindowPosition::At(vec2)`.
I'm not sure if this is the best approach, so feel free to give any feedback.
Also I'm not sure how `Option`s should be handled in `bevy_winit/src/lib.rs:161`.
Also, on window creation we can't (or at least I couldn't) get `outer_size`, so this doesn't include decorations in calculations.
* Cleanup redundant code
* Use a type alias to make sure the `caster_query` and
`not_caster_query` really do the same thing and access the same things
**Objective**
Cleanup code that would otherwise be difficult to understand
**Solution**
* `extract_meshes` had two for loops which are functionally identical,
just copy-pasted code. I extracted the common code between the two
and put them into an anonymous function.
* I flattened the tuple literal for the bundle batch, it looks much
less nested and the code is much more readable as a result.
* The parameters of `extract_meshes` were also very daunting, but they
turned out to be the same query repeated twice. I extracted the query
into a type alias.
EDIT: I reworked the PR to **not do anything breaking**, and keep the old allocation behavior. Removing the memorized length was clearly a performance loss, so I kept it.
# Objective
- Enable `wgpu` profiling spans
## Solution
- `wgpu` uses the `profiling` crate to add profiling span instrumentation to their code
- `profiling` offers multiple 'backends' for profiling, including `tracing`
- When the `bevy` `trace` feature is used, add the `profiling` crate with its `profile-with-tracing` feature to enable appropriate profiling spans in `wgpu` using `tracing` which fits nicely into our infrastructure
- Bump our default `tracing` subscriber filter to `wgpu=info` from `wgpu=error` so that the profiling spans are not filtered out as they are created at the `info` level.
---
## Changelog
- Added: `tracing` profiling support for `wgpu` when using bevy's `trace` feature
- Changed: The default `tracing` filter statement for `wgpu` has been changed from the `error` level to the `info` level to not filter out the wgpu profiling spans
# Objective
Currently stress tests are vsynced. This is undesirable for a stress test, as you want to run them with uncapped framerates.
## Solution
Ensure all stress tests are using PresentMode::Immediate if they render anything.
Removed `const_vec2`/`const_vec3`
and replaced with equivalent `.from_array`.
# Objective
Fixes#5112
## Solution
- `encase` needs to update to `glam` as well. See teoxoy/encase#4 on progress on that.
- `hexasphere` also needs to be updated, see OptimisticPeach/hexasphere#12.
# Summary
This method strips a long type name like `bevy::render:📷:PerspectiveCameraBundle` down into the bare type name (`PerspectiveCameraBundle`). This is generally useful utility method, needed by #4299 and #5121.
As a result:
- This method was moved to `bevy_utils` for easier reuse.
- The legibility and robustness of this method has been significantly improved.
- Harder test cases have been added.
This change was split out of #4299 to unblock it and make merging / reviewing the rest of those changes easier.
## Changelog
- added `bevy_utils::get_short_name`, which strips the path from a type name for convenient display.
- removed the `TypeRegistry::get_short_name` method. Use the function in `bevy_utils` instead.
# Objective
Fixes#5155. This *should* work now that the semver breaking dependency of the CI crate got yanked, but we'll see what CI has to say about it.
The first leak:
```rust
#[test]
fn blob_vec_drop_empty_capacity() {
let item_layout = Layout:🆕:<Foo>();
let drop = drop_ptr::<Foo>;
let _ = unsafe { BlobVec::new(item_layout, Some(drop), 0) };
}
```
this is because we allocate the swap scratch in blobvec regardless of what the capacity is, but we only deallocate if capacity is > 0
The second leak:
```rust
#[test]
fn panic_while_overwriting_component() {
let helper = DropTestHelper::new();
let res = panic::catch_unwind(|| {
let mut world = World::new();
world
.spawn()
.insert(helper.make_component(true, 0))
.insert(helper.make_component(false, 1));
println!("Done inserting! Dropping world...");
});
let drop_log = helper.finish(res);
assert_eq!(
&*drop_log,
[
DropLogItem::Create(0),
DropLogItem::Create(1),
DropLogItem::Drop(0),
]
);
}
```
this is caused by us not running the drop impl on the to-be-inserted component if the drop impl of the overwritten component panics
---
managed to figure out where the leaks were by using this 10/10 command
```
cargo --quiet test --lib -- --list | sed 's/: test$//' | MIRIFLAGS="-Zmiri-disable-isolation" xargs -n1 cargo miri test --lib -- --exact
```
which runs every test one by one rather than all at once which let miri actually tell me which test had the leak 🙃

| default is unit variant | 23 |
# Objective
This PR reworks Bevy's Material system, making the user experience of defining Materials _much_ nicer. Bevy's previous material system leaves a lot to be desired:
* Materials require manually implementing the `RenderAsset` trait, which involves manually generating the bind group, handling gpu buffer data transfer, looking up image textures, etc. Even the simplest single-texture material involves writing ~80 unnecessary lines of code. This was never the long term plan.
* There are two material traits, which is confusing, hard to document, and often redundant: `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial`. `Material` implicitly implements `SpecializedMaterial`, and `SpecializedMaterial` is used in most high level apis to support both use cases. Most users shouldn't need to think about specialization at all (I consider it a "power-user tool"), so the fact that `SpecializedMaterial` is front-and-center in our apis is a miss.
* Implementing either material trait involves a lot of "type soup". The "prepared asset" parameter is particularly heinous: `&<Self as RenderAsset>::PreparedAsset`. Defining vertex and fragment shaders is also more verbose than it needs to be.
## Solution
Say hello to the new `Material` system:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)]
#[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"]
pub struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
#[texture(1)]
#[sampler(2)]
color_texture: Handle<Image>,
}
impl Material for CoolMaterial {
fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"cool_material.wgsl".into()
}
}
```
Thats it! This same material would have required [~80 lines of complicated "type heavy" code](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/v0.7.0/examples/shader/shader_material.rs) in the old Material system. Now it is just 14 lines of simple, readable code.
This is thanks to a new consolidated `Material` trait and the new `AsBindGroup` trait / derive.
### The new `Material` trait
The old "split" `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` traits have been removed in favor of a new consolidated `Material` trait. All of the functions on the trait are optional.
The difficulty of implementing `Material` has been reduced by simplifying dataflow and removing type complexity:
```rust
// Old
impl Material for CustomMaterial {
fn fragment_shader(asset_server: &AssetServer) -> Option<Handle<Shader>> {
Some(asset_server.load("custom_material.wgsl"))
}
fn alpha_mode(render_asset: &<Self as RenderAsset>::PreparedAsset) -> AlphaMode {
render_asset.alpha_mode
}
}
// New
impl Material for CustomMaterial {
fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"custom_material.wgsl".into()
}
fn alpha_mode(&self) -> AlphaMode {
self.alpha_mode
}
}
```
Specialization is still supported, but it is hidden by default under the `specialize()` function (more on this later).
### The `AsBindGroup` trait / derive
The `Material` trait now requires the `AsBindGroup` derive. This can be implemented manually relatively easily, but deriving it will almost always be preferable.
Field attributes like `uniform` and `texture` are used to define which fields should be bindings,
what their binding type is, and what index they should be bound at:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
#[texture(1)]
#[sampler(2)]
color_texture: Handle<Image>,
}
```
In WGSL shaders, the binding looks like this:
```wgsl
struct CoolMaterial {
color: vec4<f32>;
};
[[group(1), binding(0)]]
var<uniform> material: CoolMaterial;
[[group(1), binding(1)]]
var color_texture: texture_2d<f32>;
[[group(1), binding(2)]]
var color_sampler: sampler;
```
Note that the "group" index is determined by the usage context. It is not defined in `AsBindGroup`. Bevy material bind groups are bound to group 1.
The following field-level attributes are supported:
* `uniform(BINDING_INDEX)`
* The field will be converted to a shader-compatible type using the `ShaderType` trait, written to a `Buffer`, and bound as a uniform. It can also be derived for custom structs.
* `texture(BINDING_INDEX)`
* This field's `Handle<Image>` will be used to look up the matching `Texture` gpu resource, which will be bound as a texture in shaders. The field will be assumed to implement `Into<Option<Handle<Image>>>`. In practice, most fields should be a `Handle<Image>` or `Option<Handle<Image>>`. If the value of an `Option<Handle<Image>>` is `None`, the new `FallbackImage` resource will be used instead. This attribute can be used in conjunction with a `sampler` binding attribute (with a different binding index).
* `sampler(BINDING_INDEX)`
* Behaves exactly like the `texture` attribute, but sets the Image's sampler binding instead of the texture.
Note that fields without field-level binding attributes will be ignored.
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
this_field_is_ignored: String,
}
```
As mentioned above, `Option<Handle<Image>>` is also supported:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
#[texture(1)]
#[sampler(2)]
color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>,
}
```
This is useful if you want a texture to be optional. When the value is `None`, the `FallbackImage` will be used for the binding instead, which defaults to "pure white".
Field uniforms with the same binding index will be combined into a single binding:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
#[uniform(0)]
roughness: f32,
}
```
In WGSL shaders, the binding would look like this:
```wgsl
struct CoolMaterial {
color: vec4<f32>;
roughness: f32;
};
[[group(1), binding(0)]]
var<uniform> material: CoolMaterial;
```
Some less common scenarios will require "struct-level" attributes. These are the currently supported struct-level attributes:
* `uniform(BINDING_INDEX, ConvertedShaderType)`
* Similar to the field-level `uniform` attribute, but instead the entire `AsBindGroup` value is converted to `ConvertedShaderType`, which must implement `ShaderType`. This is useful if more complicated conversion logic is required.
* `bind_group_data(DataType)`
* The `AsBindGroup` type will be converted to some `DataType` using `Into<DataType>` and stored as `AsBindGroup::Data` as part of the `AsBindGroup::as_bind_group` call. This is useful if data needs to be stored alongside the generated bind group, such as a unique identifier for a material's bind group. The most common use case for this attribute is "shader pipeline specialization".
The previous `CoolMaterial` example illustrating "combining multiple field-level uniform attributes with the same binding index" can
also be equivalently represented with a single struct-level uniform attribute:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
#[uniform(0, CoolMaterialUniform)]
struct CoolMaterial {
color: Color,
roughness: f32,
}
#[derive(ShaderType)]
struct CoolMaterialUniform {
color: Color,
roughness: f32,
}
impl From<&CoolMaterial> for CoolMaterialUniform {
fn from(material: &CoolMaterial) -> CoolMaterialUniform {
CoolMaterialUniform {
color: material.color,
roughness: material.roughness,
}
}
}
```
### Material Specialization
Material shader specialization is now _much_ simpler:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)]
#[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"]
#[bind_group_data(CoolMaterialKey)]
struct CoolMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
is_red: bool,
}
#[derive(Copy, Clone, Hash, Eq, PartialEq)]
struct CoolMaterialKey {
is_red: bool,
}
impl From<&CoolMaterial> for CoolMaterialKey {
fn from(material: &CoolMaterial) -> CoolMaterialKey {
CoolMaterialKey {
is_red: material.is_red,
}
}
}
impl Material for CoolMaterial {
fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"cool_material.wgsl".into()
}
fn specialize(
pipeline: &MaterialPipeline<Self>,
descriptor: &mut RenderPipelineDescriptor,
layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout,
key: MaterialPipelineKey<Self>,
) -> Result<(), SpecializedMeshPipelineError> {
if key.bind_group_data.is_red {
let fragment = descriptor.fragment.as_mut().unwrap();
fragment.shader_defs.push("IS_RED".to_string());
}
Ok(())
}
}
```
Setting `bind_group_data` is not required for specialization (it defaults to `()`). Scenarios like "custom vertex attributes" also benefit from this system:
```rust
impl Material for CustomMaterial {
fn vertex_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"custom_material.wgsl".into()
}
fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"custom_material.wgsl".into()
}
fn specialize(
pipeline: &MaterialPipeline<Self>,
descriptor: &mut RenderPipelineDescriptor,
layout: &MeshVertexBufferLayout,
key: MaterialPipelineKey<Self>,
) -> Result<(), SpecializedMeshPipelineError> {
let vertex_layout = layout.get_layout(&[
Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_POSITION.at_shader_location(0),
ATTRIBUTE_BLEND_COLOR.at_shader_location(1),
])?;
descriptor.vertex.buffers = vec![vertex_layout];
Ok(())
}
}
```
### Ported `StandardMaterial` to the new `Material` system
Bevy's built-in PBR material uses the new Material system (including the AsBindGroup derive):
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup, Debug, Clone, TypeUuid)]
#[uuid = "7494888b-c082-457b-aacf-517228cc0c22"]
#[bind_group_data(StandardMaterialKey)]
#[uniform(0, StandardMaterialUniform)]
pub struct StandardMaterial {
pub base_color: Color,
#[texture(1)]
#[sampler(2)]
pub base_color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>,
/* other fields omitted for brevity */
```
### Ported Bevy examples to the new `Material` system
The overall complexity of Bevy's "custom shader examples" has gone down significantly. Take a look at the diffs if you want a dopamine spike.
Please note that while this PR has a net increase in "lines of code", most of those extra lines come from added documentation. There is a significant reduction
in the overall complexity of the code (even accounting for the new derive logic).

## Changelog
### Added
* `AsBindGroup` trait and derive, which make it much easier to transfer data to the gpu and generate bind groups for a given type.
### Changed
* The old `Material` and `SpecializedMaterial` traits have been replaced by a consolidated (much simpler) `Material` trait. Materials no longer implement `RenderAsset`.
* `StandardMaterial` was ported to the new material system. There are no user-facing api changes to the `StandardMaterial` struct api, but it now implements `AsBindGroup` and `Material` instead of `RenderAsset` and `SpecializedMaterial`.
## Migration Guide
The Material system has been reworked to be much simpler. We've removed a lot of boilerplate with the new `AsBindGroup` derive and the `Material` trait is simpler as well!

### Bevy 0.8 (new)
```rust
impl Material for CustomMaterial {
fn fragment_shader() -> ShaderRef {
"custom_material.wgsl".into()
}
}
#[derive(AsBindGroup, TypeUuid, Debug, Clone)]
#[uuid = "f690fdae-d598-45ab-8225-97e2a3f056e0"]
pub struct CustomMaterial {
#[uniform(0)]
color: Color,
#[texture(1)]
#[sampler(2)]
color_texture: Handle<Image>,
}
```
## Future Work
* Add support for more binding types (cubemaps, buffers, etc). This PR intentionally includes a bare minimum number of binding types to keep "reviewability" in check.
* Consider optionally eliding binding indices using binding names. `AsBindGroup` could pass in (optional?) reflection info as a "hint".
* This would make it possible for the derive to do this:
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
pub struct CustomMaterial {
#[uniform]
color: Color,
#[texture]
#[sampler]
color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>,
alpha_mode: AlphaMode,
}
```
* Or this
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
pub struct CustomMaterial {
#[binding]
color: Color,
#[binding]
color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>,
alpha_mode: AlphaMode,
}
```
* Or even this (if we flip to "include bindings by default")
```rust
#[derive(AsBindGroup)]
pub struct CustomMaterial {
color: Color,
color_texture: Option<Handle<Image>>,
#[binding(ignore)]
alpha_mode: AlphaMode,
}
```
* If we add the option to define custom draw functions for materials (which could be done in a type-erased way), I think that would be enough to support extra non-material bindings. Worth considering!
# Objective
- Make Bevy work on android
## Solution
- Update android metadata and add a few more
- Set the target sdk to 31 as it will soon (in august) be the minimum sdk level for play store
- Remove the custom code to create an activity and use ndk-glue macro instead
- Delay window creation event on android
- Set the example with compatibility settings for wgpu. Those are needed for Bevy to work on my 2019 android tablet
- Add a few details on how to debug in case of failures
- Fix running the example on emulator. This was failing because of the name of the example
Bevy still doesn't work on android with this, audio features need to be disabled because of an ndk-glue version mismatch: rodio depends on 0.6.2, winit on 0.5.2. You can test with:
```
cargo apk run --release --example android_example --no-default-features --features "bevy_winit,render"
```
# Objective
CI is now failing with some changes that landed in 1.62.
## Solution
* Fix an unused lifetime by using it (we double-used the `w` lifetime).
* Update compile_fail error messages
* temporarily disable check-unused-dependencies
# Objective
- Provide a way to see the components of an entity.
- Fixes#1467
## Solution
- Add `World::inspect_entity`. It accepts an `Entity` and returns a vector of `&ComponentInfo` that the entity has.
- Add `EntityCommands::log_components`. It logs the component names of the entity. (info level)
---
## Changelog
### Added
- Ability to inspect components of an entity through `World::inspect_entity` or `EntityCommands::log_components`
