This commit introduces Github Actions support for building the tools and viewer and making these available for download as a zip file in the artifacts area of the Github Actions page. This allows for continuous validation that the viewer and tools build successfully, and the download is useful for quick testing of the very latest assimp functionality without needing to download and build it from source. This only applies to windows-msvc, since the assimp viewer is only supported on that platform. It downloads the June 2010 DirectX SDK from the Microsoft servers and installs it. It also uses a cache to prevent having to perform this DX SDK download and installation repeatedly for every commit. Note, it's necessary install the older June 2010 DXSDK because assimp uses the now deprecated D3DX libraries, and these libraries are not included in the stock Windows Server image provided by Github Actions. |

Open Asset Import Library (assimp)
A library to import and export various 3d-model-formats including scene-post-processing to generate missing render data.
Current project status
APIs are provided for C and C++. There are various bindings to other languages (C#, Java, Python, Delphi, D). Assimp also runs on Android and iOS.
Additionally, assimp features various mesh post processing tools: normals and tangent space generation, triangulation, vertex cache locality optimization, removal of degenerate primitives and duplicate vertices, sorting by primitive type, merging of redundant materials and many more.
This is the development repo containing the latest features and bugfixes. For productive use though, we recommend one of the stable releases available from Github Assimp Releases.
Please check our Wiki as well: https://github.com/assimp/assimp/wiki
If you want to check our Model-Database, use the following repo: https://github.com/assimp/assimp-mdb
Supported file formats
You can find the complete list of supported file-formats here
Building
Take a look into the https://github.com/assimp/assimp/blob/master/Build.md file. We are available in vcpkg, and our build system is CMake; if you used CMake before there is a good chance you know what to do.
Ports
- Android
- Python
- .NET
- Pascal
- Javascript (Alpha)
- Unity 3d Plugin
- JVM Full jvm port (current status)
- HAXE-Port The Assimp-HAXE-port.
Other tools
open3mod is a powerful 3D model viewer based on Assimp's import and export abilities.
Repository structure
Open Asset Import Library is implemented in C++. The directory structure looks like:
/code Source code
/contrib Third-party libraries
/doc Documentation (doxysource and pre-compiled docs)
/include Public header C and C++ header files
/scripts Scripts used to generate the loading code for some formats
/port Ports to other languages and scripts to maintain those.
/test Unit- and regression tests, test suite of models
/tools Tools (old assimp viewer, command line `assimp`)
/samples A small number of samples to illustrate possible
use cases for Assimp
The source code is organized in the following way:
code/Common The base implementation for importers and the infrastructure
code/PostProcessing The post-processing steps
code/<FormatName> Implementation for import and export for the format
Where to get help
For more information, visit our website. Or check out the ./doc
- folder, which contains the official documentation in HTML format.
(CHMs for Windows are included in some release packages and should be located right here in the root folder).
If the docs don't solve your problem, ask on StackOverflow. If you think you found a bug, please open an issue on Github.
For development discussions, there is also a (very low-volume) mailing list, assimp-discussions (subscribe here)
Open Asset Import Library is a library to load various 3d file formats into a shared, in-memory format. It supports more than 40 file formats for import and a growing selection of file formats for export.
And we also have a Gitter-channel:Gitter
