The WebGL Convert Tool is a Python utility designed for converting 3D models from the Wavefront OBJ format to a JavaScript-readable format, facilitating the integration of 3D models into WebGL applications. This tool aims to streamline the process of bringing 3D assets into web environments, making it easier for developers to incorporate complex 3D models into their web applications.
- Simple CLI Interface: Easily convert your OBJ files to JavaScript with a straightforward command-line interface.
- Customizable Output: The tool supports custom naming for the JavaScript output, allowing seamless integration into existing WebGL projects.
- Efficiency: Optimized for fast conversion, enabling quick iteration and development of 3D web applications.
- Python 2.7 or later
Clone the repository to get started with the WebGL Convert Tool:
git clone https://github.com/lookang/codesforejss.git
cd codesforejss/webgl_convert/convertConvert your OBJ files to JavaScript format using the following command:
python2 convert.py input.obj Object3D_output.jsOptionally, you can specify a custom variable name for the JavaScript output:
python2 convert.py input.obj output.js --var_name=Object3D_output.jsConverting a model named Raincloud.obj to Raincloud.js with the default variable name:
python convert.py Raincloud.obj Object3D_Raincloud.jsConverting with a custom variable name:
python convert.py Raincloud.obj Raincloud.js --var_name=Object3D_cloudWe welcome contributions to the WebGL Convert Tool! Please feel free to submit issues, pull requests, or suggest new features to make the tool more useful for the community.
