BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.Stride 2.0.0

Bannou Asset Bundler - Stride Extension

Stride engine asset compilation extension for Bannou Asset Bundler SDK.

Overview

This package provides Stride-specific asset processing for the Bannou Asset Bundler:

• StrideBatchCompiler: Compiles FBX, textures, and other assets through Stride's pipeline
• StrideTypeInferencer: Identifies asset types and texture usage (normal maps, emissive, etc.)
• Stride Content Types: MIME types for compiled Stride assets

Installation

dotnet add package BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.Stride

Quick Start

using BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.Pipeline;
using BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.Sources;
using BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.State;
using BeyondImmersion.Bannou.AssetBundler.Stride.Compilation;

// Create source
var source = new DirectoryAssetSource(
 new DirectoryInfo("/path/to/assets"),
 sourceId: "my-assets",
 name: "My Asset Pack");

// Setup Stride compiler
var compilerOptions = new StrideCompilerOptions
{
 StrideVersion = "4.2.0.2188",
 Configuration = "Release",
 MaxTextureSize = 4096,
 TextureCompression = StrideTextureCompression.BC7
};

var compiler = new StrideBatchCompiler(compilerOptions);

// Configure pipeline
var pipelineOptions = new BundlerOptions
{
 WorkingDirectory = "/tmp/bundler-work",
 OutputDirectory = "/output/bundles",
 CreatedBy = "my-tool"
};

// Execute
var state = new BundlerStateManager(new DirectoryInfo("/path/to/state"));
var pipeline = new BundlerPipeline();
var result = await pipeline.ExecuteAsync(source, compiler, state, uploader: null, pipelineOptions);

Console.WriteLine($"Created bundle with {result.AssetCount} compiled assets");

Type Inference

The StrideTypeInferencer automatically categorizes assets:

Asset Types

Texture Types

How It Works

1. Project Generation: Creates a temporary Stride project with asset references
2. Build Execution: Runs dotnet build to compile assets through Stride's pipeline
3. Index Parsing: Reads Stride's output index to locate compiled assets
4. Data Collection: Extracts compiled asset data and dependencies (buffers, etc.)

Requirements

• .NET 8.0 or later
• Stride NuGet packages (downloaded automatically during build)
• dotnet CLI available in PATH

Content Types

Compiled Stride assets use these MIME types:
