## Description
|
||
|
|
GDExtension for Godot 4+ to load GIF files as [AnimatedTexture](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_animatedtexture.html) and/or [SpriteFrames](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_spriteframes.html).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: ~~**AnimatedTexture**~~ has been marked as deprecated according to development docs and could be removed in a future version of Godot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Editor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Gif files can be imported at edit time as one of the supported types via Import options.

|
|

|
|
### Runtime
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Gif files can be loaded at runtime as one of the supported types via the `GifManager` singleton.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`GifManager` exposes the following methods for loading gifs either from file or from bytes directly:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
e.g. to load from file
|
||
|
|
```py
|
||
|
|
get_node("AnimFromRuntimeFile").texture = GifManager.animated_texture_from_file("res://examples/file/optic.gif")
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
get_node("AnimatedSprite2RuntimeFile").sprite_frames = GifManager.sprite_frames_from_file("res://examples/file/optic.gif")
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the [Runtime Imports](./demo/main.tscn) example scene.

## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Download the `gdextension` artifact from the [latest successful build](https://github.com/BOTLANNER/godot-gif/actions/workflows/build_releases.yml). (It should be right at the bottom of the **Summary**)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Extract the contents to your Godot project directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You should have an `addons` directory at the root with the following structure:
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
└───addons
|
||
|
|
└───godotgif
|
||
|
|
│ godotgif.gdextension
|
||
|
|
│ LICENSE.txt
|
||
|
|
│ README.md
|
||
|
|
│
|
||
|
|
└───bin
|
||
|
|
│ godotgif.windows.template_debug.x86_32.dll
|
||
|
|
│ godotgif.windows.template_debug.x86_64.dll
|
||
|
|
│ godotgif.windows.template_release.x86_32.dll
|
||
|
|
│ godotgif.windows.template_release.x86_64.dll
|
||

|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
│ libgodotgif.linux.template_release.x86_64.so
|

├───godotgif.macos.template_debug.framework
|

|
|
│ libgodotgif.macos.template_debug
|
||
|

|

|
|
└───godotgif.macos.template_release.framework
|
||
|
|
libgodotgif.macos.template_release
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Open your project. Any exisitng gifs should auto-import. New gifs in the project directory will automatically import as `SpriteFrames`. To convert them into `AnimatedTexture`, update the [import settings](#editor).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `GifManager` class should also now be available for access within GDScript.

### Setup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ensure **SCons** is setup. Refer to [Introduction to the buildsystem](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/introduction_to_the_buildsystem.html)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* If using a different version of Godot, be sure to dump the bindings e.g.
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
godot --dump-extension-api extension_api.json
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
* Compile with
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
scons platform=<platform> custom_api_file=extension_api.json
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Debugging
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This repository is configured for use with [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[Launch configurations](./.vscode/launch.json) have been setup for both debugging in editor and in runtime provided certain **VSCode** extensions are present and environment variables are defined.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following environment variables are required:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. `GODOT_PATH` - The directory in which Godot is installed
|
||
|
|
1. `GODOT_EXECUTABLE` - The executable name of the Godot installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
