# bevy_gltf_blueprints
Built upon [bevy_gltf_components](https://crates.io/crates/bevy_gltf_components) this crate adds the ability to define Blueprints/Prefabs for [Bevy](https://bevyengine.org/) inside gltf files and spawn them in Bevy.
A blueprint is a set of **overrideable** components + a hierarchy: ie
* just a Gltf file with Gltf_extras specifying components
* a component called BlueprintName
Particularly useful when using [Blender](https://www.blender.org/) as an editor for the [Bevy](https://bevyengine.org/) game engine, combined with the [Blender plugin](https://github.com/kaosat-dev/Blender_bevy_components_workflow/tree/main/tools/gltf_auto_export) that does a lot of the work for you

}
}
```
## Installation
Add the following to your `[dependencies]` section in `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
bevy_gltf_blueprints = "0.1"
```
Or use `cargo add`:
```toml
cargo add bevy_gltf_blueprints
```

## Setup
```rust no_run
use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_gltf_blueprints::*;
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
.add_plugin(BlueprintsPlugin)
.run();
}
```
you may want to configure your "library"/"blueprints" path: (defaults to ```assets/models/library```) so the plugin know where to look for the blueprint files
```rust no_run
use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy_gltf_blueprints::*;
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
.add_plugin(
BlueprintsPlugin{
library_folder: "advanced/models/library".into() // replace this with your blueprints library path , relative to the assets folder
}
)
.run();
}
```

## Spawning entities from blueprints
You can spawn entities from blueprints like this:
```rust no_run
commands.spawn((
BlueprintName("Health_Pickup".to_string()), // mandatory !!
SpawnHere, // mandatory !!
TransformBundle::from_transform(Transform::from_xyz(x, 2.0, y)), // VERY important !!
// any other component you want to insert
))
```
Once spawning of the actual entity is done, the spawned Blueprint will be *gone/merged* with the contents of Blueprint !
> Important :
you can **add** or **override** components present inside your Blueprint when spawning the BluePrint itself: ie
### Adding components not specified inside the blueprint
you can just add any additional components you need when spawning :
```rust no_run
commands.spawn((
BlueprintName("Health_Pickup".to_string()),
SpawnHere,
TransformBundle::from_transform(Transform::from_xyz(x, 2.0, y)),
// from Rapier/bevy_xpbd: this means the entity will also have a velocity component when inserted into the world
Velocity {
linvel: Vec3::new(vel_x, vel_y, vel_z),
angvel: Vec3::new(0.0, 0.0, 0.0),
},
))
```
### Overriding components specified inside the blueprint
any component you specify when spawning the Blueprint that is also specified **within** the Blueprint will **override** that component in the final spawned entity
for example
```rust no_run
commands.spawn((
BlueprintName("Health_Pickup".to_string()),
SpawnHere,
TransformBundle::from_transform(Transform::from_xyz(x, 2.0, y)),
HealthPowerUp(20)// if this is component is also present inside the "Health_Pickup" blueprint, that one will be replaced with this component during spawning
))
```
### BluePrintBundle
There is also a bundle for convenience , which just has
* a ```BlueprintName``` component
* a ```SpawnHere``` component
* a ```TransformBundle``` sub-bundle (so we know where to spawn)
[```BluePrintBundle```](./src/lib.rs#22)
## SystemSet
the ordering of systems is very important !
For example to replace your proxy components (stand-in components when you cannot/ do not want to use real components in the gltf file) with actual ones, which should happen **AFTER** the Blueprint based spawning,
so ```bevy_gltf_blueprints``` provides a **SystemSet** for that purpose:[```GltfBlueprintsSet```](./src/lib.rs#16)
Typically , the order of systems should be
***bevy_gltf_components (GltfComponentsSet::Injection)*** => ***bevy_gltf_blueprints (GltfBlueprintsSet::Spawn, GltfBlueprintsSet::AfterSpawn)*** => ***replace_proxies***
see https://github.com/kaosat-dev/Blender_bevy_components_workflow/tree/main/examples/advanced for how to set it up correctly
