libktx-rs

A library for reading, writing and transcoding Khronos Textures (KTX1 and KTX2) in Rust.

This repository contains both high-level Rust bindings and low-level FFI to KhronosGroup/KTX-Software.

Structure

• libktx-rs contains the high-level Rust wrapper.
• libktx-rs-sys contains the low-level C FFI, and it builds KTX-Software from source.
• libktx-rs-macros contains helpers for testing.

Docs

See https://docs.rs/libktx-rs for the latest documentation of the high-level API, and https://docs.rs/libktx-rs-sys for the low-level FFI.

Building and features

Clone this root repository and all git submodule (git clone --recursive https://github.com/UberLambda/libktx-rs), then run cargo build.

Image writing

To enable KTX image writing support (which is already enabled in the default feature set), enable the libktx-rs/write feature.

Image-based tests

To enable image loading tests, clone the libktx-rs-sys/KTX-Software submodule with git LFS support, then enable the libktx-rs-sys/test-images feature.

rust-bindgen at build time

To have rust-bindgen generate bindings in the build script (instead of using the pre-generated ones), enable the libktx-rs-sys/run-bindgen feature.

Docs-only

To skip building or linking KTX-Software altogether, enable the libktx-rs-sys/docs-only feature.

License

This Rust wrapper, and the KTX-Software library itself, are both licensed under the Apache-2.0 license.

Linux and GCC

Note that the library links to libstdc++, which is licensed under LGPL with the "Runtime Library Exception".

License exception

If the ETC decoder is enabled, the build will contain a proprietary source code file by Ericsson - KTX-Software/lib/etcdec.cxx!
Building this file is optional, and it is disabled by default. Build libktx-rs-sys with the nonfree-etc-unpack to enable this feature if you agree with the terms of the license.

See the original LICENSE for more information.
