3DModelConvertToGltf - An Unified Model Format Conversion Tool

Document

The main reason for this project is that I encountered a scenario where the STEP and IGES models need to be displayed on the Web, but the web3d libraries on the market do not support this format, and the direct display of STL files uploaded by users will consume a lot of bandwidth or CDN Traffic, converted to compressed gltf would be more appropriate.

Demo assets model effect compare:

model type	file path	Convert time	Origin size	After size
stl	assets/test.stl	2368.890ms	7.6 MB	86 KB
iges	assets/test.iges	1641.226ms	1 M	111 KB
stp	assets/test.stp	2969.200ms	5.1 MB	217 KB
fbx	assets/Samba Dancing.fbx	<1000ms	3.7 MB	614 KB

support input format： STL/IGES/STP/OBJ/FBX

support output format： GLTF/GLB

I organized my thoughts into a blog: STEP and IGES models are converted to the web-friendly glb format

PS: My blog is write by Chinese, if you are non-Chinese native speaker, you should take a Google Translate tool for well.

Project status: stable

Why not assmip

I tried to use assimp, but the result under the test of stl/iges/obj conversion is not good. I used https://hub.docker.com/r/dylankenneally/assimp docker environment for testing, you can have a try on it.

Why not implement API in this project

Model conversion is a very performance-consuming and slow-speed service. The upload and download of the model will consume bandwidth. If it is deployed directly on your own server, it will be a very bandwidth-intensive and CPU-consuming task. For the most common method to upload and download large files is to introduce OSS and CDN with dynamic expansion of queues and back-end services, but the deployment cost and implementation cost will be relatively high.

Quick Start

Due to the trouble of environment configuration and other reasons, the command line mode still needs to rely on docker. The command line mode is suitable for simple invocation on the server side. The conversion process blocks the processes to be synchronized and cannot be deployed in a distributed manner to increase concurrency.The most recommended way is to use grpc with docker deployment to make rpc, which can be synchronous or asynchronous, and will be easy to extend.

PS：When there are too many simultaneous conversion models in the command line mode or a single model is too large, there is a risk that the server providing the web service is stuck

Online convert previewer

You can convert model online (<100MB) powered by modelbox-sdk，preview link: https://wangerzi.gitee.io/modelbox-sdk/examples/index.html

GRPC Mode

Based on GRPC, and it will be more convient to build a dynamically expanded service cluster, we support uploading zip/model source files, for the compatibility of each model, response files are all in zip, you need to decompress it after got it.

You should run server-side rpc service by docker, please make sure 8999 port is usable and wj2015/3d-model-convert-to-gltf:latest image is up to date, command:

$ docker pull wj2015/3d-model-convert-to-gltf:latest
$ docker run -d -p 8999:8999 wj2015/3d-model-convert-to-gltf:latest

When using grpc in this project, please copy server/rpc/protos/converter.proto , and generate a code template according to the language of caller and enjoy it. Official document: Support Language

Completed examples

If this project is helpful to you, you can commit another examples and PR, such as php/golang/Nodejs rpc call examples.

Python rpc client usage example	server/examples/python/rpc_client.py	convert and save

Command Mode

Download the convert.sh, and grant execution authority, execute the following command, the second param should choose in stl|stp|iges|obj|fbx, please determine according to the file type

The script depends on the docker environment, so you should prepare the Docker environment first. Command mode is not support zip file convert, beacause docker volume will auto sync picture or mtl assets to docker container.

convert.sh stl inputpath.stl outputpath.glb # convert to glb single bin file
convert.sh stl inputpath.stl outputpath.gltf # generate gltf file

In the assets directory, there are four test files test.stl test.stp`` test.igs E 45 Aircraft_obj.obj Samba Dancing.fbx, copy it to the project path, and you can see the convert result.

If you got this error when you use php-fpm or other language executor to execute convert.sh, you can add your execute user to docker group to avoid this problem.

usermod -a -G docker nginx

docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.40/containers/create: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.

By calling in other languages, you can synchronously determine whether the output file exists to determine whether the conversion is successful, such as:

<?php
$out = 'out.glb';
$input = 'test.stl';
$type = 'stl';
// please be careful about execution attack
shell_exec('convert.sh '.$type.' '.$input.' '.$out);
if (file_exists($out)) {
    echo "convert result:" . $out;
} else {
    echo "convert failed";
}

Docker Environment

Under the docker host machine installed with docker, run the following command to pull the image (about 4G)

docker pull wj2015/3d-model-convert-to-gltf

Inside the container and execute conda run -n pythonocc python convert.py [stl|step|iges|obj|fbx] input.stl out.glb can convert model synchronous.

Simple Load Diagram

If there is a demand for multi-machine load, you can use nginx proxy / docker container with rpc to do a simple load balancing, or use message queue with producer and consumer. The HTTP API or queue needs to implement your own logic.

At first install docker and docker-compose, refer to official documents: Docker Desktop

Then, enter to environment/ documents, execute docker-compose up, the execute result is as follows to indicate success

Next, enter the container to execute the command and enter the pythonocc conda environment. Executing the script in this environment can facilitate code changes and debugging

Non-docker development environment

Mainly for developers who cannot run docker, you can try to use this method to build a development environment.

Create conda virtual environment:

conda create -n 3d-model-convert-to-gltf-pythonocc -c dlr-sc -c pythonocc pythonocc-core=7.4.0rc1
conda activate 3d-model-convert-to-gltf-pythonocc
pip install -r server/requirements.txt

Your local node version need 12.0.0, or got error when you run the gltf-pipeline command, and you should install gltf-pipeline and obj2gltf packages.

Local debug environment install guide

Install nvm by this script(MacOs or Linux), you can download .exe executable file from https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.3/install.sh | bash

Install and use node 12.0.0, with other packages.

nvm install 12.0.0
nvm use 12.0.0
npm install -g gltf-pipeline obj2gltf

Then, download FBX2glTf from https://github.com/facebookincubator/FBX2glTF and put it to environment dir.

PS: you should rename FBX2Gltf to fbx2gltf for Unified invoking
