Context
V-Sekai is an open-source project that brings social VR/VRSNS/metaverse components to the Godot Engine. The team is considering implementing a validator service to enhance the functionality and reliability of their projects.
Problem
The current backend system lacks a mechanism to validate scenes, count triangles, convert GLTF to Godot scene, and strip bad code from Godot scenes. This can lead to errors and inefficiencies in the development process.
Proposed Solution
The proposed solution is to create a validator service that conforms to a specific specification. This service would:
- Convert GLTF to Godot scene.
- Go over the scene and print the number of triangles.
- If necessary, run LOD on the scene.
- Run a validation that strips the bad code from the Godot scene.
- Use websockets and an API for communication and function calls.
The front-end for this service could be a CLI that calls the function locally. The asset service would call the validator service, which would then notify the websocket service via its API call.
Benefits
Implementing this validator service would provide several benefits:
- Improved accuracy and efficiency in the development process.
- Enhanced error detection and prevention.
- Streamlined communication between different parts of the system.
Potential Downsides
Potential challenges or downsides could include:
- Complexity in setting up and maintaining the validator service.
- Need for thorough testing to ensure the validator service works as expected.
Alternatives Considered
An alternative approach could be to use gdscript + webrtc instead of websockets + API for communication and function calls. However, this would need to be evaluated for feasibility and efficiency.
Next Steps
The next steps would be to:
- Finalize the specification for the validator service.
- Develop the validator service according to the agreed-upon specification.
- Test the validator service thoroughly to ensure it works as expected.
- Implement the validator service in the V-Sekai system.
