forge-gltf-server

Experimental Node.js server app generating glTF files for Autodesk Forge models.

Running locally

Prerequisites

• Register a Forge application
• Node.js (we recommend the Long Term Support version)
• Terminal (for example, Windows Command Prompt or macOS Terminal)

Setup & Run

• Clone the repository
• Install dependencies: npm install or yarn install
• Setup environment variables:
  • FORGE_CLIENT_ID - your Forge application client ID
  • FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET - your Forge application client secret
  • HOST_URL - URL where this app is running (used to build the OAuth callback URL)
  • SERVER_SESSION_SECRET - a secret phrase used to encrypt session cookies
• Run the server: npm start

When using Visual Studio Code, you can specify the env. variables listed above in a .env file in this folder, and run & debug the application directly from the editor.
