Odin bindings for the Open Asset Import Library (Assimp), allowing you to import various 3D model formats into your Odin applications.

This project provides Odin bindings to the Assimp library, which is a popular C++ library that loads various 3D file formats into a shared, in-memory format. Assimp supports more than 40 file formats for import and a growing selection of file formats for export.

With these bindings, you can:

• Load 3D models from multiple formats (FBX, OBJ, GLTF, etc.)
• Access mesh data, materials, textures, and animations
• Apply various post-processing steps to optimize your 3D models
• Export models to different formats

To build the binding yourself you will need to following:

• Odin compiler
• C/C++ compiler (GCC, MSVC, Clang)
• CMake (version 3.10 or higher)
• bindgen (Make sure to add the executable to your PATH)

NOTE: VS build tools is the recomended build tool for windows. It's required for the odin compiler and comes with a C/C++ compiler and CMake (You might need to add the CMake component).

First, you need to build the Assimp library using the provided build scripts:

# Clone the repo if you haven't already
git clone https://github.com/your-username/odin-assimp.git
cd odin-assimp

# To just build libassimp
# Windows
./build-lib.bat
# Linux
./build-lib.sh
# Alternitively
sudo apt install libassimp-dev

NOTE: The Linux build script should create a system link to the .so file making it available system-wide.

Assimp supports numerous file formats including (but not limited to):

• Autodesk FBX (.fbx)
• Wavefront OBJ (.obj)
• COLLADA (.dae)
• glTF (.gltf, .glb)
• STL (.stl)
• Blender (.blend)
• 3DS (.3ds)
• PLY (.ply)
