Installation

There are two pieces to Skein:

1. The Bevy crate
2. The Blender addon

---

The Bevy Crate

cargo add bevy_skein

Add the plugin to your application. Using default sets handle_brp to true which lets Skein set up the appropriate BRP configuration. If you want more control, set this to false and set up the RemotePlugin and RemoteHttpPlugin yourself. Skein currently only uses the default ports.

use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_skein::SkeinPlugin;

fn main() {
    App::new()
        .add_plugins((
            DefaultPlugins,
            SkeinPlugin::default(),
        ))
        .run();
}

The only thing you need to do is set up the plugin. Skein operates on the GltfExtras that the Blender addon sets in the .gltf/.glb file, so spawning a scene from a gltf exported with the addon data will "just work".

commands.spawn(SceneRoot(asset_server.load(
    GltfAssetLabel::Scene(0).from_asset("my_export.gltf"),
)));
