Tiny glTF loader, header only C++ glTF parsing library.

TinyGLTFLoader is a header only C++ glTF https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF parsing library

Features

Portable C++. C++-03 with STL dependency only.
Moderate parsing time and memory consumption.
glTF specification v1.0.0
- ASCII glTF
- Binary glTF(https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/tree/master/extensions/Khronos/KHR_binary_glTF)
Buffers
- Parse BASE64 encoded embedded buffer fata(DataURI).
- Load .bin file.
Image(Using stb_image)
- Parse BASE64 encoded embedded image fata(DataURI).
- Load external image file.
- PNG(8bit only)
- JPEG(8bit only)
- BMP
- GIF

Examples

glview : Simple glTF geometry viewer.
writer : Simple glTF writer(serialize tinygltf::Scene class)

TODOs

Write C++ code generator from json schema for robust parsing.
Support multiple scenes in .gltf
Parse skin
Compression/decompression(Open3DGC, etc)
Support extensions and extras property
HDR image?

Build and example

Copy stb_image.h, picojson.h and tiny_gltf_loader.h to your project.

// Define these only in *one* .cc file.
#define TINYGLTF_LOADER_IMPLEMENTATION
#define STB_IMAGE_IMPLEMENTATION
#include "tiny_gltf_loader.h"

using namespace tinygltf;

Scene scene; 
TinyGLTFLoader loader;
std::string err;
  
bool ret = loader.LoadASCIIFromFile(scene, err, argv[1]);
//bool ret = loader.LoadBinaryFromFile(scene, err, argv[1]); // for binary glTF(.glb) 
if (!err.empty()) {
  printf("Err: %s\n", err.c_str());
}

if (!ret) {
  printf("Failed to parse glTF\n");
  return -1;
}

Running tests.

Setup

Python 2.6 or 2.7 required. Git clone https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF to your local dir.

Run test

After building loader_example, edit test_runner.py, then,

$ python test_runner.py
