Patrick Walton	f5de3f08fb	Use multidraw for opaque meshes when GPU culling is in use. (#16427) ... This commit adds support for *multidraw*, which is a feature that allows multiple meshes to be drawn in a single drawcall. `wgpu` currently implements multidraw on Vulkan, so this feature is only enabled there. Multiple meshes can be drawn at once if they're in the same vertex and index buffers and are otherwise placed in the same bin. (Thus, for example, at present the materials and textures must be identical, but see #16368.) Multidraw is a significant performance improvement during the draw phase because it reduces the number of rebindings, as well as the number of drawcalls. This feature is currently only enabled when GPU culling is used: i.e. when `GpuCulling` is present on a camera. Therefore, if you run for example `scene_viewer`, you will not see any performance improvements, because `scene_viewer` doesn't add the `GpuCulling` component to its camera. Additionally, the multidraw feature is only implemented for opaque 3D meshes and not for shadows or 2D meshes. I plan to make GPU culling the default and to extend the feature to shadows in the future. Also, in the future I suspect that polyfilling multidraw on APIs that don't support it will be fruitful, as even without driver-level support use of multidraw allows us to avoid expensive `wgpu` rebindings.	2024-12-06 17:22:03 +00:00
Benjamin Brienen	40640fdf42	Don't reëxport bevy_image from bevy_render (#16163) ... # Objective Fixes #15940 ## Solution Remove the `pub use` and fix the compile errors. Make `bevy_image` available as `bevy::image`. ## Testing Feature Frenzy would be good here! Maybe I'll learn how to use it if I have some time this weekend, or maybe a reviewer can use it. ## Migration Guide Use `bevy_image` instead of `bevy_render::texture` items. --------- Co-authored-by: chompaa <antony.m.3012@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>	2024-11-10 06:54:38 +00:00
atlv	c29e67153b	Expose Pipeline Compilation Zero Initialize Workgroup Memory Option (#16301) ... # Objective - wgpu 0.20 made workgroup vars stop being zero-init by default. this broke some applications (cough foresight cough) and now we workaround it. wgpu exposes a compilation option that zero initializes workgroup memory by default, but bevy does not expose it. ## Solution - expose the compilation option wgpu gives us ## Testing - ran examples: 3d_scene, compute_shader_game_of_life, gpu_readback, lines, specialized_mesh_pipeline. they all work - confirmed fix for our own problems --- </details> ## Migration Guide - add `zero_initialize_workgroup_memory: false,` to `ComputePipelineDescriptor` or `RenderPipelineDescriptor` structs to preserve 0.14 functionality, add `zero_initialize_workgroup_memory: true,` to restore bevy 0.13 functionality.	2024-11-08 21:42:37 +00:00
Joona Aalto	c1a4b82762	Revert default mesh materials (#15930) ... # Objective Closes #15799. Many rendering people and maintainers are in favor of reverting default mesh materials added in #15524, especially as the migration to required component is already large and heavily breaking. ## Solution Revert default mesh materials, and adjust docs accordingly. - Remove `extract_default_materials` - Remove `clear_material_instances`, and move the logic back into `extract_mesh_materials` - Remove `HasMaterial2d` and `HasMaterial3d` - Change default material handles back to pink instead of white - 2D uses `Color::srgb(1.0, 0.0, 1.0)`, while 3D uses `Color::srgb(1.0, 0.0, 0.5)`. Not sure if this is intended. There is now no indication at all about missing materials for `Mesh2d` and `Mesh3d`. Having a mesh without a material renders nothing. ## Testing I ran `2d_shapes`, `mesh2d_manual`, and `3d_shapes`, with and without mesh material components.	2024-10-15 19:47:40 +00:00
Rob Parrett	9dd6f42b32	Alternative fix for mesh2d_manual example (#15883) ... # Objective Fixes #15847 Alternative to #15862. Would appreciate a rendering person signaling preference for one or the other. ## Solution Partially revert the changes made to this example in #15524. Add comment explaining that the non-usage of the built-in color vertex attribute is intentional. ## Testing `cargo run --example mesh2d_manual`	2024-10-14 01:02:23 +00:00
NiseVoid	bdd0af6bfb	Deprecate SpatialBundle (#15830) ... # Objective - Required components replace bundles, but `SpatialBundle` is yet to be deprecated ## Solution - Deprecate `SpatialBundle` - Insert `Transform` and `Visibility` instead in examples using it - In `spawn` or `insert` inserting a default `Transform` or `Visibility` with component already requiring either, remove those components from the tuple ## Testing - Did you test these changes? If so, how? Yes, I ran the examples I changed and tests - Are there any parts that need more testing? The `gamepad_viewer` and and `custom_shader_instancing` examples don't work as intended due to entirely unrelated code, didn't check main. - How can other people (reviewers) test your changes? Is there anything specific they need to know? Run examples, or just check that all spawned values are identical - If relevant, what platforms did you test these changes on, and are there any important ones you can't test? Linux, wayland trough x11 (cause that's the default feature) --- ## Migration Guide `SpatialBundle` is now deprecated, insert `Transform` and `Visibility` instead which will automatically insert all other components that were in the bundle. If you do not specify these values and any other components in your `spawn`/`insert` call already requires either of these components you can leave that one out. before: ```rust commands.spawn(SpatialBundle::default()); ``` after: ```rust commands.spawn((Transform::default(), Visibility::default()); ```	2024-10-13 17:28:22 +00:00
charlotte	dd812b3e49	Type safe retained render world (#15756) ... # Objective In the Render World, there are a number of collections that are derived from Main World entities and are used to drive rendering. The most notable are: - `VisibleEntities`, which is generated in the `check_visibility` system and contains visible entities for a view. - `ExtractedInstances`, which maps entity ids to asset ids. In the old model, these collections were trivially kept in sync -- any extracted phase item could look itself up because the render entity id was guaranteed to always match the corresponding main world id. After #15320, this became much more complicated, and was leading to a number of subtle bugs in the Render World. The main rendering systems, i.e. `queue_material_meshes` and `queue_material2d_meshes`, follow a similar pattern: ```rust for visible_entity in visible_entities.iter::<With<Mesh2d>>() { let Some(mesh_instance) = render_mesh_instances.get_mut(visible_entity) else { continue; }; // Look some more stuff up and specialize the pipeline... let bin_key = Opaque2dBinKey { pipeline: pipeline_id, draw_function: draw_opaque_2d, asset_id: mesh_instance.mesh_asset_id.into(), material_bind_group_id: material_2d.get_bind_group_id().0, }; opaque_phase.add( bin_key, *visible_entity, BinnedRenderPhaseType::mesh(mesh_instance.automatic_batching), ); } ``` In this case, `visible_entities` and `render_mesh_instances` are both collections that are created and keyed by Main World entity ids, and so this lookup happens to work by coincidence. However, there is a major unintentional bug here: namely, because `visible_entities` is a collection of Main World ids, the phase item being queued is created with a Main World id rather than its correct Render World id. This happens to not break mesh rendering because the render commands used for drawing meshes do not access the `ItemQuery` parameter, but demonstrates the confusion that is now possible: our UI phase items are correctly being queued with Render World ids while our meshes aren't. Additionally, this makes it very easy and error prone to use the wrong entity id to look up things like assets. For example, if instead we ignored visibility checks and queued our meshes via a query, we'd have to be extra careful to use `&MainEntity` instead of the natural `Entity`. ## Solution Make all collections that are derived from Main World data use `MainEntity` as their key, to ensure type safety and avoid accidentally looking up data with the wrong entity id: ```rust pub type MainEntityHashMap<V> = hashbrown::HashMap<MainEntity, V, EntityHash>; ``` Additionally, we make all `PhaseItem` be able to provide both their Main and Render World ids, to allow render phase implementors maximum flexibility as to what id should be used to look up data. You can think of this like tracking at the type level whether something in the Render World should use it's "primary key", i.e. entity id, or needs to use a foreign key, i.e. `MainEntity`. ## Testing ##### TODO: This will require extensive testing to make sure things didn't break! Additionally, some extraction logic has become more complicated and needs to be checked for regressions. ## Migration Guide With the advent of the retained render world, collections that contain references to `Entity` that are extracted into the render world have been changed to contain `MainEntity` in order to prevent errors where a render world entity id is used to look up an item by accident. Custom rendering code may need to be changed to query for `&MainEntity` in order to look up the correct item from such a collection. Additionally, users who implement their own extraction logic for collections of main world entity should strongly consider extracting into a different collection that uses `MainEntity` as a key. Additionally, render phases now require specifying both the `Entity` and `MainEntity` for a given `PhaseItem`. Custom render phases should ensure `MainEntity` is available when queuing a phase item.	2024-10-10 18:47:04 +00:00
Joona Aalto	25bfa80e60	Migrate cameras to required components (#15641) ... # Objective Yet another PR for migrating stuff to required components. This time, cameras! ## Solution As per the [selected proposal](https://hackmd.io/tsYID4CGRiWxzsgawzxG_g#Combined-Proposal-1-Selected), deprecate `Camera2dBundle` and `Camera3dBundle` in favor of `Camera2d` and `Camera3d`. Adding a `Camera` without `Camera2d` or `Camera3d` now logs a warning, as suggested by Cart [on Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1264881140007702558/1291506402832945273). I would personally like cameras to work a bit differently and be split into a few more components, to avoid some footguns and confusing semantics, but that is more controversial, and shouldn't block this core migration. ## Testing I ran a few 2D and 3D examples, and tried cameras with and without render graphs. --- ## Migration Guide `Camera2dBundle` and `Camera3dBundle` have been deprecated in favor of `Camera2d` and `Camera3d`. Inserting them will now also insert the other components required by them automatically.	2024-10-05 01:59:52 +00:00
Joona Aalto	54006b107b	Migrate meshes and materials to required components (#15524) ... # Objective A big step in the migration to required components: meshes and materials! ## Solution As per the [selected proposal](https://hackmd.io/@bevy/required_components/%2Fj9-PnF-2QKK0on1KQ29UWQ): - Deprecate `MaterialMesh2dBundle`, `MaterialMeshBundle`, and `PbrBundle`. - Add `Mesh2d` and `Mesh3d` components, which wrap a `Handle<Mesh>`. - Add `MeshMaterial2d<M: Material2d>` and `MeshMaterial3d<M: Material>`, which wrap a `Handle<M>`. - Meshes *without* a mesh material should be rendered with a default material. The existence of a material is determined by `HasMaterial2d`/`HasMaterial3d`, which is required by `MeshMaterial2d`/`MeshMaterial3d`. This gets around problems with the generics. Previously: ```rust commands.spawn(MaterialMesh2dBundle { mesh: meshes.add(Circle::new(100.0)).into(), material: materials.add(Color::srgb(7.5, 0.0, 7.5)), transform: Transform::from_translation(Vec3::new(-200., 0., 0.)), ..default() }); ``` Now: ```rust commands.spawn(( Mesh2d(meshes.add(Circle::new(100.0))), MeshMaterial2d(materials.add(Color::srgb(7.5, 0.0, 7.5))), Transform::from_translation(Vec3::new(-200., 0., 0.)), )); ``` If the mesh material is missing, previously nothing was rendered. Now, it renders a white default `ColorMaterial` in 2D and a `StandardMaterial` in 3D (this can be overridden). Below, only every other entity has a material:   Why white? This is still open for discussion, but I think white makes sense for a *default* material, while *invalid* asset handles pointing to nothing should have something like a pink material to indicate that something is broken (I don't handle that in this PR yet). This is kind of a mix of Godot and Unity: Godot just renders a white material for non-existent materials, while Unity renders nothing when no materials exist, but renders pink for invalid materials. I can also change the default material to pink if that is preferable though. ## Testing I ran some 2D and 3D examples to test if anything changed visually. I have not tested all examples or features yet however. If anyone wants to test more extensively, it would be appreciated! ## Implementation Notes - The relationship between `bevy_render` and `bevy_pbr` is weird here. `bevy_render` needs `Mesh3d` for its own systems, but `bevy_pbr` has all of the material logic, and `bevy_render` doesn't depend on it. I feel like the two crates should be refactored in some way, but I think that's out of scope for this PR. - I didn't migrate meshlets to required components yet. That can probably be done in a follow-up, as this is already a huge PR. - It is becoming increasingly clear to me that we really, *really* want to disallow raw asset handles as components. They caused me a *ton* of headache here already, and it took me a long time to find every place that queried for them or inserted them directly on entities, since there were no compiler errors for it. If we don't remove the `Component` derive, I expect raw asset handles to be a *huge* footgun for users as we transition to wrapper components, especially as handles as components have been the norm so far. I personally consider this to be a blocker for 0.15: we need to migrate to wrapper components for asset handles everywhere, and remove the `Component` derive. Also see https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14124. --- ## Migration Guide Asset handles for meshes and mesh materials must now be wrapped in the `Mesh2d` and `MeshMaterial2d` or `Mesh3d` and `MeshMaterial3d` components for 2D and 3D respectively. Raw handles as components no longer render meshes. Additionally, `MaterialMesh2dBundle`, `MaterialMeshBundle`, and `PbrBundle` have been deprecated. Instead, use the mesh and material components directly. Previously: ```rust commands.spawn(MaterialMesh2dBundle { mesh: meshes.add(Circle::new(100.0)).into(), material: materials.add(Color::srgb(7.5, 0.0, 7.5)), transform: Transform::from_translation(Vec3::new(-200., 0., 0.)), ..default() }); ``` Now: ```rust commands.spawn(( Mesh2d(meshes.add(Circle::new(100.0))), MeshMaterial2d(materials.add(Color::srgb(7.5, 0.0, 7.5))), Transform::from_translation(Vec3::new(-200., 0., 0.)), )); ``` If the mesh material is missing, a white default material is now used. Previously, nothing was rendered if the material was missing. The `WithMesh2d` and `WithMesh3d` query filter type aliases have also been removed. Simply use `With<Mesh2d>` or `With<Mesh3d>`. --------- Co-authored-by: Tim Blackbird <justthecooldude@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>	2024-10-01 21:33:17 +00:00

Patrick Walton	bc34216929	Pack multiple vertex and index arrays together into growable buffers. (#14257) ... This commit uses the [`offset-allocator`] crate to combine vertex and index arrays from different meshes into single buffers. Since the primary source of `wgpu` overhead is from validation and synchronization when switching buffers, this significantly improves Bevy's rendering performance on many scenes. This patch is a more flexible version of #13218, which also used slabs. Unlike #13218, which used slabs of a fixed size, this commit implements slabs that start small and can grow. In addition to reducing memory usage, supporting slab growth reduces the number of vertex and index buffer switches that need to happen during rendering, leading to improved performance. To prevent pathological fragmentation behavior, slabs are capped to a maximum size, and mesh arrays that are too large get their own dedicated slabs. As an additional improvement over #13218, this commit allows the application to customize all allocator heuristics. The `MeshAllocatorSettings` resource contains values that adjust the minimum and maximum slab sizes, the cutoff point at which meshes get their own dedicated slabs, and the rate at which slabs grow. Hopefully-sensible defaults have been chosen for each value. Unfortunately, WebGL 2 doesn't support the *base vertex* feature, which is necessary to pack vertex arrays from different meshes into the same buffer. `wgpu` represents this restriction as the downlevel flag `BASE_VERTEX`. This patch detects that bit and ensures that all vertex buffers get dedicated slabs on that platform. Even on WebGL 2, though, we can combine all *index* arrays into single buffers to reduce buffer changes, and we do so. The following measurements are on Bistro: Overall frame time improves from 8.74 ms to 5.53 ms (1.58x speedup):  Render system time improves from 6.57 ms to 3.54 ms (1.86x speedup):  Opaque pass time improves from 4.64 ms to 2.33 ms (1.99x speedup):  ## Migration Guide ### Changed * Vertex and index buffers for meshes may now be packed alongside other buffers, for performance. * `GpuMesh` has been renamed to `RenderMesh`, to reflect the fact that it no longer directly stores handles to GPU objects. * Because meshes no longer have their own vertex and index buffers, the responsibility for the buffers has moved from `GpuMesh` (now called `RenderMesh`) to the `MeshAllocator` resource. To access the vertex data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_vertex_slice`. To access the index data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_index_slice`.

The `lighting` example particularly should hit a lot of the changes and appears to run fine. --- ## Changelog - Renamed matrices across the engine to follow a `y_from_x` naming, making the space conversion more obvious. ## Migration Guide - `Frustum`'s `from_view_projection`, `from_view_projection_custom_far` and `from_view_projection_no_far` were renamed to `from_clip_from_world`, `from_clip_from_world_custom_far` and `from_clip_from_world_no_far`. - `ComputedCameraValues::projection_matrix` was renamed to `clip_from_view`. - `CameraProjection::get_projection_matrix` was renamed to `get_clip_from_view` (this affects implementations on `Projection`, `PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection`). - `ViewRangefinder3d::from_view_matrix` was renamed to `from_world_from_view`. - `PreviousViewData`'s members were renamed to `view_from_world` and `clip_from_world`. - `ExtractedView`'s `projection`, `transform` and `view_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_view`, `world_from_view` and `clip_from_world`. - `ViewUniform`'s `view_proj`, `unjittered_view_proj`, `inverse_view_proj`, `view`, `inverse_view`, `projection` and `inverse_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_world`, `unjittered_clip_from_world`, `world_from_clip`, `world_from_view`, `view_from_world`, `clip_from_view` and `view_from_clip`. - `GpuDirectionalCascade::view_projection` was renamed to `clip_from_world`. - `MeshTransforms`' `transform` and `previous_transform` were renamed to `world_from_local` and `previous_world_from_local`. - `MeshUniform`'s `transform`, `previous_transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`, `previous_world_from_local`, `local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the `Mesh` type in WGSL mirrors this, however `transform` and `previous_transform` were named `model` and `previous_model`). - `Mesh2dTransforms::transform` was renamed to `world_from_local`. - `Mesh2dUniform`'s `transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`, `local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the `Mesh2d` type in WGSL mirrors this). - In WGSL, in `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions`, `get_model_matrix` and `get_previous_model_matrix` were renamed to `get_world_from_local` and `get_previous_world_from_local`. - In WGSL, `bevy_sprite::mesh2d_functions::get_model_matrix` was renamed to `get_world_from_local`.	2024-06-03 16:56:53 +00:00
Patrick Walton	9da0b2a0ec	Make render phases render world resources instead of components. (#13277) ... This commit makes us stop using the render world ECS for `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` and instead use resources with `EntityHashMap`s inside. There are three reasons to do this: 1. We can use `clear()` to clear out the render phase collections instead of recreating the components from scratch, allowing us to reuse allocations. 2. This is a prerequisite for retained bins, because components can't be retained from frame to frame in the render world, but resources can. 3. We want to move away from storing anything in components in the render world ECS, and this is a step in that direction. This patch results in a small performance benefit, due to point (1) above. ## Changelog ### Changed * The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and `ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources. ## Migration Guide * The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and `ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources. Instead of querying for the components, look the camera entity up in the `ViewBinnedRenderPhases`/`ViewSortedRenderPhases` tables.	2024-05-21 18:23:04 +00:00
Patrick Walton	16531fb3e3	Implement GPU frustum culling. (#12889) ... This commit implements opt-in GPU frustum culling, built on top of the infrastructure in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12773. To enable it on a camera, add the `GpuCulling` component to it. To additionally disable CPU frustum culling, add the `NoCpuCulling` component. Note that adding `GpuCulling` without `NoCpuCulling` *currently* does nothing useful. The reason why `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling` is that I intend to follow this patch up with GPU two-phase occlusion culling, and CPU frustum culling plus GPU occlusion culling seems like a very commonly-desired mode. Adding the `GpuCulling` component to a view puts that view into *indirect mode*. This mode makes all drawcalls indirect, relying on the mesh preprocessing shader to allocate instances dynamically. In indirect mode, the `PreprocessWorkItem` `output_index` points not to a `MeshUniform` instance slot but instead to a set of `wgpu` `IndirectParameters`, from which it allocates an instance slot dynamically if frustum culling succeeds. Batch building has been updated to allocate and track indirect parameter slots, and the AABBs are now supplied to the GPU as `MeshCullingData`. A small amount of code relating to the frustum culling has been borrowed from meshlets and moved into `maths.wgsl`. Note that standard Bevy frustum culling uses AABBs, while meshlets use bounding spheres; this means that not as much code can be shared as one might think. This patch doesn't provide any way to perform GPU culling on shadow maps, to avoid making this patch bigger than it already is. That can be a followup. ## Changelog ### Added * Frustum culling can now optionally be done on the GPU. To enable it, add the `GpuCulling` component to a camera. * To disable CPU frustum culling, add `NoCpuCulling` to a camera. Note that `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling`.	2024-04-28 12:50:00 +00:00

Patrick Walton	5caf085dac	Divide the single VisibleEntities list into separate lists for 2D meshes, 3D meshes, lights, and UI elements, for performance. (#12582) ... This commit splits `VisibleEntities::entities` into four separate lists: one for lights, one for 2D meshes, one for 3D meshes, and one for UI elements. This allows `queue_material_meshes` and similar methods to avoid examining entities that are obviously irrelevant. In particular, this separation helps scenes with many skinned meshes, as the individual bones are considered visible entities but have no rendered appearance. Internally, `VisibleEntities::entities` is a `HashMap` from the `TypeId` representing a `QueryFilter` to the appropriate `Entity` list. I had to do this because `VisibleEntities` is located within an upstream crate from the crates that provide lights (`bevy_pbr`) and 2D meshes (`bevy_sprite`). As an added benefit, this setup allows apps to provide their own types of renderable components, by simply adding a specialized `check_visibility` to the schedule. This provides a 16.23% end-to-end speedup on `many_foxes` with 10,000 foxes (24.06 ms/frame to 20.70 ms/frame). ## Migration guide * `check_visibility` and `VisibleEntities` now store the four types of renderable entities--2D meshes, 3D meshes, lights, and UI elements--separately. If your custom rendering code examines `VisibleEntities`, it will now need to specify which type of entity it's interested in using the `WithMesh2d`, `WithMesh`, `WithLight`, and `WithNode` types respectively. If your app introduces a new type of renderable entity, you'll need to add an explicit call to `check_visibility` to the schedule to accommodate your new component or components. ## Analysis `many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes: `main`:  `many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes, this branch:  `queue_material_meshes` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):  `queue_shadows` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`): 	2024-04-11 20:33:20 +00:00
Robert Swain	ab7cbfa8fc	Consolidate Render(Ui)Materials(2d) into RenderAssets (#12827) ... # Objective - Replace `RenderMaterials` / `RenderMaterials2d` / `RenderUiMaterials` with `RenderAssets` to enable implementing changes to one thing, `RenderAssets`, that applies to all use cases rather than duplicating changes everywhere for multiple things that should be one thing. - Adopts #8149 ## Solution - Make RenderAsset generic over the destination type rather than the source type as in #8149 - Use `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` etc for render materials --- ## Changelog - Changed: - The `RenderAsset` trait is now implemented on the destination type. Its `SourceAsset` associated type refers to the type of the source asset. - `RenderMaterials`, `RenderMaterials2d`, and `RenderUiMaterials` have been replaced by `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` and similar. ## Migration Guide - `RenderAsset` is now implemented for the destination type rather that the source asset type. The source asset type is now the `RenderAsset` trait's `SourceAsset` associated type.	2024-04-09 13:26:34 +00:00
Patrick Walton	37522fd0ae	Micro-optimize queue_material_meshes, primarily to remove bit manipulation. (#12791) ... This commit makes the following optimizations: ## `MeshPipelineKey`/`BaseMeshPipelineKey` split `MeshPipelineKey` has been split into `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_render` and `MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`. Conceptually, `BaseMeshPipelineKey` is a superclass of `MeshPipelineKey`. For `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the highest (most significant) bit and grow downward toward the lowest bit; for `MeshPipelineKey`, the bits start at the lowest bit and grow upward toward the highest bit. This prevents them from colliding. The goal of this is to avoid having to reassemble bits of the pipeline key for every mesh every frame. Instead, we can just use a bitwise or operation to combine the pieces that make up a `MeshPipelineKey`. ## `specialize_slow` Previously, all of `specialize()` was marked as `#[inline]`. This bloated `queue_material_meshes` unnecessarily, as a large chunk of it ended up being a slow path that was rarely hit. This commit refactors the function to move the slow path to `specialize_slow()`. Together, these two changes shave about 5% off `queue_material_meshes`:  ## Migration Guide - The `primitive_topology` field on `GpuMesh` is now an accessor method: `GpuMesh::primitive_topology()`. - For performance reasons, `MeshPipelineKey` has been split into `BaseMeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_render`, and `MeshPipelineKey`, which lives in `bevy_pbr`. These two should be combined with bitwise-or to produce the final `MeshPipelineKey`.	2024-04-01 21:58:53 +00:00
Cameron	01649f13e2	Refactor App and SubApp internals for better separation (#9202) ... # Objective This is a necessary precursor to #9122 (this was split from that PR to reduce the amount of code to review all at once). Moving `!Send` resource ownership to `App` will make it unambiguously `!Send`. `SubApp` must be `Send`, so it can't wrap `App`. ## Solution Refactor `App` and `SubApp` to not have a recursive relationship. Since `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`, once `!Send` resources are moved out of `World` and into `App`, `SubApp` will become unambiguously `Send`. There could be less code duplication between `App` and `SubApp`, but that would break `App` method chaining. ## Changelog - `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`. - `App` fields are no longer publicly accessible. - `App` can no longer be converted into a `SubApp`. - Various methods now return references to a `SubApp` instead of an `App`. ## Migration Guide - To construct a sub-app, use `SubApp::new()`. `App` can no longer convert into `SubApp`. - If you implemented a trait for `App`, you may want to implement it for `SubApp` as well. - If you're accessing `app.world` directly, you now have to use `app.world()` and `app.world_mut()`. - `App::sub_app` now returns `&SubApp`. - `App::sub_app_mut` now returns `&mut SubApp`. - `App::get_sub_app` now returns `Option<&SubApp>.` - `App::get_sub_app_mut` now returns `Option<&mut SubApp>.`	2024-03-31 03:16:10 +00:00
Patrick Walton	4dadebd9c4	Improve performance by binning together opaque items instead of sorting them. (#12453) ... Today, we sort all entities added to all phases, even the phases that don't strictly need sorting, such as the opaque and shadow phases. This results in a performance loss because our `PhaseItem`s are rather large in memory, so sorting is slow. Additionally, determining the boundaries of batches is an O(n) process. This commit makes Bevy instead applicable place phase items into *bins* keyed by *bin keys*, which have the invariant that everything in the same bin is potentially batchable. This makes determining batch boundaries O(1), because everything in the same bin can be batched. Instead of sorting each entity, we now sort only the bin keys. This drops the sorting time to near-zero on workloads with few bins like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Memory usage is improved too, with batch boundaries and dynamic indices now implicit instead of explicit. The improved memory usage results in a significant win even on unbatchable workloads like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling --vary-material-data-per-instance`, presumably due to cache effects. Not all phases can be binned; some, such as transparent and transmissive phases, must still be sorted. To handle this, this commit splits `PhaseItem` into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. Most of the logic that today deals with `PhaseItem`s has been moved to `SortedPhaseItem`. `BinnedPhaseItem` has the new logic. Frame time results (in ms/frame) are as follows: | Benchmark | `binning` | `main` | Speedup | | ------------------------ | --------- | ------- | ------- | | `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 232.179 | 312.123 | 34.43% | | `many_cubes -nfc` | 25.874 | 30.117 | 16.40% | | `many_foxes` | 3.276 | 3.515 | 7.30% | (`-nfc` is short for `--no-frustum-culling`; `-vpi` is short for `--vary-per-instance`.) --- ## Changelog ### Changed * Render phases have been split into binned and sorted phases. Binned phases, such as the common opaque phase, achieve improved CPU performance by avoiding the sorting step. ## Migration Guide - `PhaseItem` has been split into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. If your code has custom `PhaseItem`s, you will need to migrate them to one of these two types. `SortedPhaseItem` requires the fewest code changes, but you may want to pick `BinnedPhaseItem` if your phase doesn't require sorting, as that enables higher performance. ## Tracy graphs `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, `main` branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180037" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/e1180ce8-8e89-46d2-85e3-f59f72109a55"> `many-cubes --no-frustum-culling`, this branch: <img width="1064" alt="Screenshot 2024-03-12 180011" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/157897/0899f036-6075-44c5-a972-44d95895f46c"> You can see that `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` is a much smaller fraction of the time.

Multiplications and divisions do not scale alpha. `Add` and `Sub` have been cut from this PR. - added `LinearRgba` and `Srgba` `RED/GREEN/BLUE` - added `LinearRgba_to_f32_array` and `LinearRgba::to_u32` ## Migration Guide Bevy's color types have changed! Wherever you used a `bevy::render::Color`, a `bevy::color::Color` is used instead. These are quite similar! Both are enums storing a color in a specific color space (or to be more precise, using a specific color model). However, each of the different color models now has its own type. TODO... - `Color::rgba`, `Color::rgb`, `Color::rbga_u8`, `Color::rgb_u8`, `Color::rgb_from_array` are now `Color::srgba`, `Color::srgb`, `Color::srgba_u8`, `Color::srgb_u8` and `Color::srgb_from_array`. - `Color::set_a` and `Color::a` is now `Color::set_alpha` and `Color::alpha`. These are part of the `Alpha` trait in `bevy_color`. - `Color::is_fully_transparent` is now part of the `Alpha` trait in `bevy_color` - `Color::r`, `Color::set_r`, `Color::with_r` and the equivalents for `g`, `b` `h`, `s` and `l` have been removed due to causing silent relatively expensive conversions. Convert your `Color` into the desired color space, perform your operations there, and then convert it back into a polymorphic `Color` enum. - `Color::hex` is now `Srgba::hex`. Call `.into` or construct a `Color::Srgba` variant manually to convert it. - `WireframeMaterial`, `ExtractedUiNode`, `ExtractedDirectionalLight`, `ExtractedPointLight`, `ExtractedSpotLight` and `ExtractedSprite` now store a `LinearRgba`, rather than a polymorphic `Color` - `Color::rgb_linear` and `Color::rgba_linear` are now `Color::linear_rgb` and `Color::linear_rgba` - The various CSS color constants are no longer stored directly on `Color`. Instead, they're defined in the `Srgba` color space, and accessed via `bevy::color::palettes::css`. Call `.into()` on them to convert them into a `Color` for quick debugging use, and consider using the much prettier `tailwind` palette for prototyping. - The `LIME_GREEN` color has been renamed to `LIMEGREEN` to comply with the standard naming. - Vector field arithmetic operations on `Color` (add, subtract, multiply and divide by a f32) have been removed. Instead, convert your colors into `LinearRgba` space, and perform your operations explicitly there. This is particularly relevant when working with emissive or HDR colors, whose color channel values are routinely outside of the ordinary 0 to 1 range. - `Color::as_linear_rgba_f32` has been removed. Call `LinearRgba::to_f32_array` instead, converting if needed. - `Color::as_linear_rgba_u32` has been removed. Call `LinearRgba::to_u32` instead, converting if needed. - Several other color conversion methods to transform LCH or HSL colors into float arrays or `Vec` types have been removed. Please reimplement these externally or open a PR to re-add them if you found them particularly useful. - Various methods on `Color` such as `rgb` or `hsl` to convert the color into a specific color space have been removed. Convert into `LinearRgba`, then to the color space of your choice. - Various implicitly-converting color value methods on `Color` such as `r`, `g`, `b` or `h` have been removed. Please convert it into the color space of your choice, then check these properties. - `Color` no longer implements `AsBindGroup`. Store a `LinearRgba` internally instead to avoid conversion costs. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecil@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Afonso Lage <lage.afonso@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Rob Parrett <robparrett@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Zachary Harrold <zac@harrold.com.au>	2024-02-29 19:35:12 +00:00
Alice Cecile	de004da8d5	Rename bevy_render::Color to LegacyColor (#12069) ... # Objective The migration process for `bevy_color` (#12013) will be fairly involved: there will be hundreds of affected files, and a large number of APIs. ## Solution To allow us to proceed granularly, we're going to keep both `bevy_color::Color` (new) and `bevy_render::Color` (old) around until the migration is complete. However, simply doing this directly is confusing! They're both called `Color`, making it very hard to tell when a portion of the code has been ported. As discussed in #12056, by renaming the old `Color` type, we can make it easier to gradually migrate over, one API at a time. ## Migration Guide THIS MIGRATION GUIDE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK. This change should not be shipped to end users: delete this section in the final migration guide! --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecil@gmail.com>	2024-02-24 21:35:32 +00:00

Brian Reavis	6b40b6749e	RenderAssetPersistencePolicy → RenderAssetUsages (#11399) ... # Objective Right now, all assets in the main world get extracted and prepared in the render world (if the asset's using the RenderAssetPlugin). This is unfortunate for two cases: 1. **TextureAtlas** / **FontAtlas**: This one's huge. The individual `Image` assets that make up the atlas are cloned and prepared individually when there's no reason for them to be. The atlas textures are built on the CPU in the main world. *There can be hundreds of images that get prepared for rendering only not to be used.* 2. If one loads an Image and needs to transform it in a system before rendering it, kind of like the [decompression example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/examples/asset/asset_decompression.rs#L120), there's a price paid for extracting & preparing the asset that's not intended to be rendered yet. ------ * References #10520 * References #1782 ## Solution This changes the `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` enum to bitflags. I felt that the objective with the parameter is so similar in nature to wgpu's [`TextureUsages`](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.TextureUsages.html) and [`BufferUsages`](https://docs.rs/wgpu/latest/wgpu/struct.BufferUsages.html), that it may as well be just like that. ```rust // This asset only needs to be in the main world. Don't extract and prepare it. RenderAssetUsages::MAIN_WORLD // Keep this asset in the main world and RenderAssetUsages::MAIN_WORLD | RenderAssetUsages::RENDER_WORLD // This asset is only needed in the render world. Remove it from the asset server once extracted. RenderAssetUsages::RENDER_WORLD ``` ### Alternate Solution I considered introducing a third field to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` enum: ```rust enum RenderAssetPersistencePolicy { /// Keep the asset in the main world after extracting to the render world. Keep, /// Remove the asset from the main world after extracting to the render world. Unload, /// This doesn't need to be in the render world at all. NoExtract, // <----- } ``` Functional, but this seemed like shoehorning. Another option is renaming the enum to something like: ```rust enum RenderAssetExtractionPolicy { /// Extract the asset and keep it in the main world. Extract, /// Remove the asset from the main world after extracting to the render world. ExtractAndUnload, /// This doesn't need to be in the render world at all. NoExtract, } ``` I think this last one could be a good option if the bitflags are too clunky. ## Migration Guide * `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` → `RenderAssetUsage::MAIN_WORLD | RenderAssetUsage::RENDER_WORLD` (or `RenderAssetUsage::default()`) * `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload` → `RenderAssetUsage::RENDER_WORLD` * For types implementing the `RenderAsset` trait, change `fn persistence_policy(&self) -> RenderAssetPersistencePolicy` to `fn asset_usage(&self) -> RenderAssetUsages`. * Change any references to `cpu_persistent_access` (`RenderAssetPersistencePolicy`) to `asset_usage` (`RenderAssetUsage`). This applies to `Image`, `Mesh`, and a few other types.	2024-01-30 13:22:10 +00:00
JMS55	44424391fe	Unload render assets from RAM (#10520) ... # Objective - No point in keeping Meshes/Images in RAM once they're going to be sent to the GPU, and kept in VRAM. This saves a _significant_ amount of memory (several GBs) on scenes like bistro. - References - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/1782 - https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8624 ## Solution - Augment RenderAsset with the capability to unload the underlying asset after extracting to the render world. - Mesh/Image now have a cpu_persistent_access field. If this field is RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload, the asset will be unloaded from Assets<T>. - A new AssetEvent is sent upon dropping the last strong handle for the asset, which signals to the RenderAsset to remove the GPU version of the asset. --- ## Changelog - Added `AssetEvent::NoLongerUsed` and `AssetEvent::is_no_longer_used()`. This event is sent when the last strong handle of an asset is dropped. - Rewrote the API for `RenderAsset` to allow for unloading the asset data from the CPU. - Added `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy`. - Added `Mesh::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `Image::cpu_persistent_access` for memory savings when the asset is not needed except for on the GPU. - Added `ImageLoaderSettings::cpu_persistent_access`. - Added `ExrTextureLoaderSettings`. - Added `HdrTextureLoaderSettings`. ## Migration Guide - Asset loaders (GLTF, etc) now load meshes and textures without `cpu_persistent_access`. These assets will be removed from `Assets<Mesh>` and `Assets<Image>` once `RenderAssets<Mesh>` and `RenderAssets<Image>` contain the GPU versions of these assets, in order to reduce memory usage. If you require access to the asset data from the CPU in future frames after the GLTF asset has been loaded, modify all dependent `Mesh` and `Image` assets and set `cpu_persistent_access` to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. - `Mesh` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `Image` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` field. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `MorphTargetImage::new()` now requires a new `cpu_persistent_access` parameter. Set it to `RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep` to mimic the previous behavior. - `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture()` now requires that the `TextureAtlas` you pass has an `Image` with `cpu_persistent_access: RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Keep`. Ensure you construct the image properly for the texture atlas. - The `RenderAsset` trait has significantly changed, and requires adapting your existing implementations. - The trait now requires `Clone`. - The `ExtractedAsset` associated type has been removed (the type itself is now extracted). - The signature of `prepare_asset()` is slightly different - A new `persistence_policy()` method is now required (return RenderAssetPersistencePolicy::Unload to match the previous behavior). - Match on the new `NoLongerUsed` variant for exhaustive matches of `AssetEvent`.	2024-01-03 03:31:04 +00:00

robtfm	61bad4eb57	update shader imports (#10180) ... # Objective - bump naga_oil to 0.10 - update shader imports to use rusty syntax ## Migration Guide naga_oil 0.10 reworks the import mechanism to support more syntax to make it more rusty, and test for item use before importing to determine which imports are modules and which are items, which allows: - use rust-style imports ``` #import bevy_pbr::{ pbr_functions::{alpha_discard as discard, apply_pbr_lighting}, mesh_bindings, } ``` - import partial paths: ``` #import part::of::path ... path::remainder::function(); ``` which will call to `part::of::path::remainder::function` - use fully qualified paths without importing: ``` // #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr() ``` - use imported items without qualifying ``` #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions::pbr // for backwards compatibility the old style is still supported: // #import bevy_pbr::pbr_functions pbr ... pbr() ``` - allows most imported items to end with `_` and numbers (naga_oil#30). still doesn't allow struct members to end with `_` or numbers but it's progress. - the vast majority of existing shader code will work without changes, but will emit "deprecated" warnings for old-style imports. these can be suppressed with the `allow-deprecated` feature. - partly breaks overrides (as far as i'm aware nobody uses these yet) - now overrides will only be applied if the overriding module is added as an additional import in the arguments to `Composer::make_naga_module` or `Composer::add_composable_module`. this is necessary to support determining whether imports are modules or items.	2023-10-21 11:51:58 +00:00

Robert Swain	5c884c5a15	Automatic batching/instancing of draw commands (#9685) ... # Objective - Implement the foundations of automatic batching/instancing of draw commands as the next step from #89 - NOTE: More performance improvements will come when more data is managed and bound in ways that do not require rebinding such as mesh, material, and texture data. ## Solution - The core idea for batching of draw commands is to check whether any of the information that has to be passed when encoding a draw command changes between two things that are being drawn according to the sorted render phase order. These should be things like the pipeline, bind groups and their dynamic offsets, index/vertex buffers, and so on. - The following assumptions have been made: - Only entities with prepared assets (pipelines, materials, meshes) are queued to phases - View bindings are constant across a phase for a given draw function as phases are per-view - `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` is the only system that performs this batching and has sole responsibility for preparing the per-object data. As such the mesh binding and dynamic offsets are assumed to only vary as a result of the `batch_and_prepare_render_phase` system, e.g. due to having to split data across separate uniform bindings within the same buffer due to the maximum uniform buffer binding size. - Implement `GpuArrayBuffer` for `Mesh2dUniform` to store Mesh2dUniform in arrays in GPU buffers rather than each one being at a dynamic offset in a uniform buffer. This is the same optimisation that was made for 3D not long ago. - Change batch size for a range in `PhaseItem`, adding API for getting or mutating the range. This is more flexible than a size as the length of the range can be used in place of the size, but the start and end can be otherwise whatever is needed. - Add an optional mesh bind group dynamic offset to `PhaseItem`. This avoids having to do a massive table move just to insert `GpuArrayBufferIndex` components. ## Benchmarks All tests have been run on an M1 Max on AC power. `bevymark` and `many_cubes` were modified to use 1920x1080 with a scale factor of 1. I run a script that runs a separate Tracy capture process, and then runs the bevy example with `--features bevy_ci_testing,trace_tracy` and `CI_TESTING_CONFIG=../benchmark.ron` with the contents of `../benchmark.ron`: ```rust ( exit_after: Some(1500) ) ``` ...in order to run each test for 1500 frames. The recent changes to `many_cubes` and `bevymark` added reproducible random number generation so that with the same settings, the same rng will occur. They also added benchmark modes that use a fixed delta time for animations. Combined this means that the same frames should be rendered both on main and on the branch. The graphs compare main (yellow) to this PR (red). ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark` <img width="1411" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 42 10" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/2088716a-c918-486c-8129-090b26fd2bc4"> The mesh and material are the same for all instances. This is basically the best case for the initial batching implementation as it results in 1 draw for the ~11.7k visible meshes. It gives a ~30% reduction in median frame time.

The materials are randomly selected, and there is no sorting by material bind group for opaque 3D so any batching is 'random'. The PR produces a ~5% reduction in median frame time. If we were to sort the opaque phase by the material bind group, then this should be a lot faster. This produces about 10.5k draws for the 11.7k visible entities. This makes sense as randomly selecting from 10 materials gives a chance that two adjacent entities randomly select the same material and can be batched. The 1000th frame is identical in flip:  ``` Mean: 0.000000 Weighted median: 0.000000 1st weighted quartile: 0.000000 3rd weighted quartile: 0.000000 Min: 0.000000 Max: 0.000000 Evaluation time: 0.4537 seconds ``` ### 3D Mesh `many_cubes --benchmark --vary-per-instance` <img width="1394" alt="Screenshot 2023-09-03 at 23 48 44" src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/302146/f02a816b-a444-4c18-a96a-63b5436f3b7f"> This run varies the material data per instance by randomly-generating its colour. This is the worst case for batching and that it performs about the same as `main` is a good thing as it demonstrates that the batching has minimal overhead when dealing with ~11k visible mesh entities.

Carter Anderson	5eb292dc10	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>	2023-09-07 02:07:27 +00:00
Joseph	02b520b4e8	Split ComputedVisibility into two components to allow for accurate change detection and speed up visibility propagation (#9497) ... # Objective Fix #8267. Fixes half of #7840. The `ComputedVisibility` component contains two flags: hierarchy visibility, and view visibility (whether its visible to any cameras). Due to the modular and open-ended way that view visibility is computed, it triggers change detection every single frame, even when the value does not change. Since hierarchy visibility is stored in the same component as view visibility, this means that change detection for inherited visibility is completely broken. At the company I work for, this has become a real issue. We are using change detection to only re-render scenes when necessary. The broken state of change detection for computed visibility means that we have to to rely on the non-inherited `Visibility` component for now. This is workable in the early stages of our project, but since we will inevitably want to use the hierarchy, we will have to either: 1. Roll our own solution for computed visibility. 2. Fix the issue for everyone. ## Solution Split the `ComputedVisibility` component into two: `InheritedVisibilty` and `ViewVisibility`. This allows change detection to behave properly for `InheritedVisibility`. View visiblity is still erratic, although it is less useful to be able to detect changes for this flavor of visibility. Overall, this actually simplifies the API. Since the visibility system consists of self-explaining components, it is much easier to document the behavior and usage. This approach is more modular and "ECS-like" -- one could strip out the `ViewVisibility` component entirely if it's not needed, and rely only on inherited visibility. --- ## Changelog - `ComputedVisibility` has been removed in favor of: `InheritedVisibility` and `ViewVisiblity`. ## Migration Guide The `ComputedVisibilty` component has been split into `InheritedVisiblity` and `ViewVisibility`. Replace any usages of `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_hierarchy` with `InheritedVisibility::get`, and replace `ComputedVisibility::is_visible_in_view` with `ViewVisibility::get`. ```rust // Before: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, computed_visibility: ComputedVisibility::default(), }); // After: commands.spawn(VisibilityBundle { visibility: Visibility::Inherited, inherited_visibility: InheritedVisibility::default(), view_visibility: ViewVisibility::default(), }); ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_hierarchy() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&InheritedVisibility>) { for inherited_visibility in &q { if inherited_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(q: Query<&ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &q { if vis.is_visible_in_view() { // After: fn my_system(q: Query<&ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &q { if view_visibility.get() { ``` ```rust // Before: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ComputedVisibilty>) { for vis in &mut q { vis.set_visible_in_view(); // After: fn my_system(mut q: Query<&mut ViewVisibility>) { for view_visibility in &mut q { view_visibility.set(); ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com>	2023-09-01 13:00:18 +00:00
James O'Brien	4f1d9a6315	Reorder render sets, refactor bevy_sprite to take advantage (#9236) ... This is a continuation of this PR: #8062 # Objective - Reorder render schedule sets to allow data preparation when phase item order is known to support improved batching - Part of the batching/instancing etc plan from here: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/89#issuecomment-1379249074 - The original idea came from @inodentry and proved to be a good one. Thanks! - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the new ordering ## Solution - Move `Prepare` and `PrepareFlush` after `PhaseSortFlush` - Add a `PrepareAssets` set that runs in parallel with other systems and sets in the render schedule. - Put prepare_assets systems in the `PrepareAssets` set - If explicit dependencies are needed on Mesh or Material RenderAssets then depend on the appropriate system. - Add `ManageViews` and `ManageViewsFlush` sets between `ExtractCommands` and Queue - Move `queue_mesh*_bind_group` to the Prepare stage - Rename them to `prepare_` - Put systems that prepare resources (buffers, textures, etc.) into a `PrepareResources` set inside `Prepare` - Put the `prepare_..._bind_group` systems into a `PrepareBindGroup` set after `PrepareResources` - Move `prepare_lights` to the `ManageViews` set - `prepare_lights` creates views and this must happen before `Queue` - This system needs refactoring to stop handling all responsibilities - Gather lights, sort, and create shadow map views. Store sorted light entities in a resource - Remove `BatchedPhaseItem` - Replace `batch_range` with `batch_size` representing how many items to skip after rendering the item or to skip the item entirely if `batch_size` is 0. - `queue_sprites` has been split into `queue_sprites` for queueing phase items and `prepare_sprites` for batching after the `PhaseSort` - `PhaseItem`s are still inserted in `queue_sprites` - After sorting adjacent compatible sprite phase items are accumulated into `SpriteBatch` components on the first entity of each batch, containing a range of vertex indices. The associated `PhaseItem`'s `batch_size` is updated appropriately. - `SpriteBatch` items are then drawn skipping over the other items in the batch based on the value in `batch_size` - A very similar refactor was performed on `bevy_ui` --- ## Changelog Changed: - Reordered and reworked render app schedule sets. The main change is that data is extracted, queued, sorted, and then prepared when the order of data is known. - Refactor `bevy_sprite` and `bevy_ui` to take advantage of the reordering. ## Migration Guide - Assets such as materials and meshes should now be created in `PrepareAssets` e.g. `prepare_assets<Mesh>` - Queueing entities to `RenderPhase`s continues to be done in `Queue` e.g. `queue_sprites` - Preparing resources (textures, buffers, etc.) should now be done in `PrepareResources`, e.g. `prepare_prepass_textures`, `prepare_mesh_uniforms` - Prepare bind groups should now be done in `PrepareBindGroups` e.g. `prepare_mesh_bind_group` - Any batching or instancing can now be done in `Prepare` where the order of the phase items is known e.g. `prepare_sprites` ## Next Steps - Introduce some generic mechanism to ensure items that can be batched are grouped in the phase item order, currently you could easily have `[sprite at z 0, mesh at z 0, sprite at z 0]` preventing batching. - Investigate improved orderings for building the MeshUniform buffer - Implementing batching across the rest of bevy --------- Co-authored-by: Robert Swain <robert.swain@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: robtfm <50659922+robtfm@users.noreply.github.com>	2023-08-27 14:33:49 +00:00
robtfm	10f5c92068	improve shader import model (#5703) ... # Objective operate on naga IR directly to improve handling of shader modules. - give codespan reporting into imported modules - allow glsl to be used from wgsl and vice-versa the ultimate objective is to make it possible to - provide user hooks for core shader functions (to modify light behaviour within the standard pbr pipeline, for example) - make automatic binding slot allocation possible but ... since this is already big, adds some value and (i think) is at feature parity with the existing code, i wanted to push this now. ## Solution i made a crate called naga_oil (https://github.com/robtfm/naga_oil - unpublished for now, could be part of bevy) which manages modules by - building each module independantly to naga IR - creating "header" files for each supported language, which are used to build dependent modules/shaders - make final shaders by combining the shader IR with the IR for imported modules then integrated this into bevy, replacing some of the existing shader processing stuff. also reworked examples to reflect this. ## Migration Guide shaders that don't use `#import` directives should work without changes. the most notable user-facing difference is that imported functions/variables/etc need to be qualified at point of use, and there's no "leakage" of visible stuff into your shader scope from the imports of your imports, so if you used things imported by your imports, you now need to import them directly and qualify them. the current strategy of including/'spreading' `mesh_vertex_output` directly into a struct doesn't work any more, so these need to be modified as per the examples (e.g. color_material.wgsl, or many others). mesh data is assumed to be in bindgroup 2 by default, if mesh data is bound into bindgroup 1 instead then the shader def `MESH_BINDGROUP_1` needs to be added to the pipeline shader_defs.	2023-06-27 00:29:22 +00:00
Edgar Geier	f18f28874a	Allow tuples and single plugins in add_plugins, deprecate add_plugin (#8097) ... # Objective - Better consistency with `add_systems`. - Deprecating `add_plugin` in favor of a more powerful `add_plugins`. - Allow passing `Plugin` to `add_plugins`. - Allow passing tuples to `add_plugins`. ## Solution - `App::add_plugins` now takes an `impl Plugins` parameter. - `App::add_plugin` is deprecated. - `Plugins` is a new sealed trait that is only implemented for `Plugin`, `PluginGroup` and tuples over `Plugins`. - All examples, benchmarks and tests are changed to use `add_plugins`, using tuples where appropriate. --- ## Changelog ### Changed - `App::add_plugins` now accepts all types that implement `Plugins`, which is implemented for: - Types that implement `Plugin`. - Types that implement `PluginGroup`. - Tuples (up to 16 elements) over types that implement `Plugins`. - Deprecated `App::add_plugin` in favor of `App::add_plugins`. ## Migration Guide - Replace `app.add_plugin(plugin)` calls with `app.add_plugins(plugin)`. --------- Co-authored-by: Carter Anderson <mcanders1@gmail.com>	2023-06-21 20:51:03 +00:00

JoJoJet	b8263b55fb	Support system.in_schedule() and system.on_startup() (#7790) ... # Objective Support the following syntax for adding systems: ```rust App::new() .add_system(setup.on_startup()) .add_systems(( show_menu.in_schedule(OnEnter(GameState::Paused)), menu_ssytem.in_set(OnUpdate(GameState::Paused)), hide_menu.in_schedule(OnExit(GameState::Paused)), )) ``` ## Solution Add the traits `IntoSystemAppConfig{s}`, which provide the extension methods necessary for configuring which schedule a system belongs to. These extension methods return `IntoSystemAppConfig{s}`, which `App::add_system{s}` uses to choose which schedule to add systems to. --- ## Changelog + Added the extension methods `in_schedule(label)` and `on_startup()` for configuring the schedule a system belongs to. ## Future Work * Replace all uses of `add_startup_system` in the engine. * Deprecate this method	2023-02-24 18:33:55 +00:00
