cljs-blend4web

Note: This can now be installed via cljsjs. Just search for 'blend4web' and follow the instructions. What follows below is how to manually install it into Maven with Boot.

[cljsjs/blend4web "16.09-2"] ;; latest release

Note the version number will now reflect the blend4web version its compatible with. Also note: is a an alpha-quality software, and is probably going to break/change.

Clojurescript -> Blend4Web Web-player functions

Controlling Blend4Web's outputted WebGL with Clojurescript. For an overview, check out the proposed workflow.

Here's an example of its output

Note: Probably runs best on Chrome

Installing

1: Downloading/Installing

• Java 7/8 (8 recommended)
• Latest version of Clojure
• The boot project building tool.
• Git

If you'd like to develop the 3d content as well, download the latest version of Blender and the blend4web-addon

This next step varies from OS to OS

2: Building JAR (Linux/OS X Users)

First download this repo, and get into a terminal emulator (ie Terminal.app, iTerm) and enter:

git clone https://github.com/mikebelanger/clojure-blend4web.git
cd clojure-blend4web

Now compile this repo into a .jar, which sits in your ~/.m2 (maven repository). This also downloads a bunch of code, so it may take some time.

boot package install

2: Building JAR (Windows Users)

Not sure :P I'm sure there's a way, but I don't have access to a Windows machine atm. If you could tell me how to build the above .jar on Windows, please let me know, I'll put it on here.

3: Next Steps

So far just a basic tutorial, I promise I'll add more as this project starts to stabilize.

Starting a project from scratch

Special Thanks

I'd like to thank Matt Ratzke, Micha Niskin for helping me with Boot, and putting up with my silly questions. Another big thanks to Ivan Lyubovnikov, Yuri Kovelenov for putting up with my questions regarding Blend4Web. Also thanks to anyone else who's worked on Blender, Clojure, and Clojurescript.
