# Objective
- The current implementation for dynamic plugins is unsound. Please see
#11969 for background and justification.
- Closes#11969 and closes#13073.
## Solution
- Deprecate all dynamic plugin items for Bevy 0.14, with plans to remove
them for Bevy 0.15.
## Discussion
One thing I want to make clear is that I'm not opposed to dynamic
plugins _in general_. I think they can be handy, especially for DLC and
modding, but I think the current system is the wrong approach. It's too
much of a footgun for the meager benefit is provides.
---
## Changelog
- Deprecated the current dynamic plugin system.
- Dynamic plugins will be removed in Bevy 0.15. For now you can continue
using them by marking your code with `#[allow(deprecated)]`.
## Migration Guide
If possible, remove all usage of dynamic plugins.
```rust
// Old
#[derive(DynamicPlugin)]
pub struct MyPlugin;
App::new()
.load_plugin("path/to/plugin")
.run();
// New
pub struct MyPlugin;
App::new()
.add_plugins(MyPlugin)
.run();
```
If you are unable to do that, you may temporarily silence the
deprecation warnings.
```rust
#[allow(deprecated)]
```
Please note that the current dynamic plugin system will be removed by
the next major Bevy release, so you will have to migrate eventually. You

# Objective
- `README.md` is a common file that usually gives an overview of the
folder it is in.
- When on <https://crates.io>, `README.md` is rendered as the main
description.
- Many crates in this repository are lacking `README.md` files, which
makes it more difficult to understand their purpose.
<img width="1552" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/59022059/78ebf91d-b0c4-4b18-9874-365d6310640f">
- There are also a few inconsistencies with `README.md` files that this
PR and its follow-ups intend to fix.
## Solution
- Create a `README.md` file for all crates that do not have one.
- This file only contains the title of the crate (underscores removed,
proper capitalization, acronyms expanded) and the <https://shields.io>
badges.
- Remove the `readme` field in `Cargo.toml` for `bevy` and
`bevy_reflect`.
- This field is redundant because [Cargo automatically detects
`README.md`
files](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-readme-field).
The field is only there if you name it something else, like `INFO.md`.
- Fix capitalization of `bevy_utils`'s `README.md`.
- It was originally `Readme.md`, which is inconsistent with the rest of
the project.
- I created two commits renaming it to `README.md`, because Git appears
to be case-insensitive.
- Expand acronyms in title of `bevy_ptr` and `bevy_utils`.
- In the commit where I created all the new `README.md` files, I
preferred using expanded acronyms in the titles. (E.g. "Bevy Developer
Tools" instead of "Bevy Dev Tools".)
- This commit changes the title of existing `README.md` files to follow
the same scheme.
- I do not feel strongly about this change, please comment if you
disagree and I can revert it.
- Add <https://shields.io> badges to `bevy_time` and `bevy_transform`,
which are the only crates currently lacking them.
---
## Changelog
- Added `README.md` files to all crates missing it.
# 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.
# Objective
Currently the built docs only shows the logo and favicon for the top
level `bevy` crate. This makes views like
https://docs.rs/bevy_ecs/latest/bevy_ecs/ look potentially unrelated to
the project at first glance.
## Solution
Reproduce the docs attributes for every crate that Bevy publishes.
Ideally this would be done with some workspace level Cargo.toml control,
but AFAICT, such support does not exist.
# Objective
- Some members of `bevy_dynamic_plugin` are not documented.
- Part of #3492.
## Solution
- Add documentation to members missing it in `bevy_dynamic_plugin`.
- Update existing documentation for clarity and formatting.
---
## Changelog
- Completely document `bevy_dynamic_plugin`.

Bump version after release
This PR has been auto-generated
Co-authored-by: Bevy Auto Releaser <41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
Co-authored-by: François <mockersf@gmail.com>
# Objective
- Part of #11590.
## Solution
- Fix `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` for `bevy_dynamic_plugin`.
---
## Changelog
- Added further restrictions to the safety requirements of
`bevy_dynamic_plugin::dynamically_load_plugin`.
---
I had a few issues, specifically with the safety comment on
`dynamically_load_plugin`. There are three different unsafe functions
called within the function body, and they all need their own
justification / message.
Also, would it be unsound to call `dynamically_load_plugin` multiple
times on the same file? I feel the documentation needs to be more clear.
# Objective
Currently the `missing_docs` lint is allowed-by-default and enabled at
crate level when their documentations is complete (see #3492).
This PR proposes to inverse this logic by making `missing_docs`
warn-by-default and mark crates with imcomplete docs allowed.
## Solution
Makes `missing_docs` warn at workspace level and allowed at crate level
when the docs is imcomplete.
# Objective
- [`thiserror`](https://docs.rs/thiserror/) is used to derive the error
type on `bevy_dynamic_plugin`'s
[`DynamicPluginLoadError`](https://docs.rs/bevy_dynamic_plugin/latest/bevy_dynamic_plugin/enum.DynamicPluginLoadError.html).
- It is an enum where each variant wraps a `libloading` error type.
- `thiserror` supports marking this internal error types as `#[source]`
so it can automatically fill out the
[`Error::source`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/error/trait.Error.html#method.source)
method.
- This allows other error handling libraries to get more information
about the error than what Bevy by default provides. It increases
interoperability between libraries.
## Solution
- Mark the internal `libloading::Error` of `DynamicPluginLoadError` with
`#[source]`.
---
## Changelog
- Implemented the
[`Error::source`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/error/trait.Error.html#method.source)
method for
[`DynamicPluginLoadError`](https://docs.rs/bevy_dynamic_plugin/latest/bevy_dynamic_plugin/enum.DynamicPluginLoadError.html).
---
Here is the output from `cargo-expand` before and after the change.
```rust
// Before
impl Error for DynamicPluginLoadError {}
```
```rust
// After
impl Error for DynamicPluginLoadError {
fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)> {
use thiserror::__private::AsDynError as _;
match self {
DynamicPluginLoadError::Library { 0: source, .. } => {
Some(source.as_dyn_error())
}
DynamicPluginLoadError::Plugin { 0: source, .. } => {
Some(source.as_dyn_error())
}
}
}
}
```
# Objective
- Fix adding `#![allow(clippy::type_complexity)]` everywhere. like #9796
## Solution
- Use the new [lints] table that will land in 1.74
(https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#lints)
- inherit lint to the workspace, crates and examples.
```
[lints]
workspace = true
```
## Changelog
- Bump rust version to 1.74
- Enable lints table for the workspace
```toml
[workspace.lints.clippy]
type_complexity = "allow"
```
- Allow type complexity for all crates and examples
```toml
[lints]
workspace = true
```

# Objective
The clippy lint `type_complexity` is known not to play well with bevy.
It frequently triggers when writing complex queries, and taking the
lint's advice of using a type alias almost always just obfuscates the
code with no benefit. Because of this, this lint is currently ignored in
CI, but unfortunately it still shows up when viewing bevy code in an
IDE.
As someone who's made a fair amount of pull requests to this repo, I
will say that this issue has been a consistent thorn in my side. Since
bevy code is filled with spurious, ignorable warnings, it can be very
difficult to spot the *real* warnings that must be fixed -- most of the
time I just ignore all warnings, only to later find out that one of them
was real after I'm done when CI runs.
## Solution
Suppress this lint in all bevy crates. This was previously attempted in
#7050, but the review process ended up making it more complicated than
it needs to be and landed on a subpar solution.
The discussion in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/10571
explores some better long-term solutions to this problem. Since there is
no timeline on when these solutions may land, we should resolve this
issue in the meantime by locally suppressing these lints.
### Unresolved issues
Currently, these lints are not suppressed in our examples, since that
would require suppressing the lint in every single source file. They are
still ignored in CI.
# Objective
- Fixes#6711
## Solution
- Change the `path` function parameter of `dynamically_load_plugin` and `DynamicPluginExt::load_plugin` to a generic with `AsRef<OsStr>` bound
# Objective
Currently, `bevy_dynamic_plugin` simply panics on error. This makes it impossible to handle failures in applications that use this feature.
For example, I'd like to build an optional expansion for my game, that may not be distributed to all users. I want to use `bevy_dynamic_plugin` for loading it. I want my game to try to load it on startup, but continue without it if it cannot be loaded.
## Solution
- Make the `dynamically_load_plugin` function return a `Result`, so it can gracefully return loading errors.
- Create an error enum type, to provide useful information about the kind of error. This adds `thiserror` to the dependencies of `bevy_dynamic_plugin`, but that dependency is already used in other parts of bevy (such as `bevy_asset`), so not a big deal.
I chose not to change the behavior of the builder method in the App extension trait. I kept it as panicking. There is no clean way (that I'm aware of) to make a builder-style API that has fallible methods. So it is either a panic or a warning. I feel the panic is more appropriate.
---
## Changelog
### Changed
- `bevy_dynamic_plugin::dynamically_load_plugin` now returns `Result` instead of panicking, to allow for error handling
Objective
During work on #3009 I've found that not all jobs use actions-rs, and therefore, an previous version of Rust is used for them. So while compilation and other stuff can pass, checking markup and Android build may fail with compilation errors.
Solution
This PR adds `action-rs` for any job running cargo, and updates the edition to 2021.
This is extracted out of eb8f973646476b4a4926ba644a77e2b3a5772159 and includes some additional changes to remove all references to AppBuilder and fix examples that still used App::build() instead of App::new(). In addition I didn't extract the sub app feature as it isn't ready yet.
You can use `git diff --diff-filter=M eb8f973646476b4a4926ba644a77e2b3a5772159` to find all differences in this PR. The `--diff-filtered=M` filters all files added in the original commit but not in this commit away.

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
