From b71eb3a105b8f7fb216a48082386215a6ea81cc4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julian Eisel Date: Fri, 11 Dec 2020 18:15:25 +0100 Subject: Asset System: Data-block asset metadata storage, reading and API Asset metadata is what turns a regular data-block into an asset. It is a small data-structure, but a key part of the technical design of the asset system. The design foresees that asset data-blocks store an `ID.asset_data` pointer of type `AssetMetaData`. This data **must not** have dependencies on other data-blocks or data-block data, it must be an independent unit. That way we can read asset-metadata from .blends without reading anything else from the file. The Asset Browser will use this metadata (together with the data-block name, preview and file path) to represent assets in the file list. Includes: * New `ID.asset_data` for asset metadata. * Asset tags, description and custom properties. * BKE code to manage asset meta-data and asset tags. * Code to read asset data from files, without reading IDs. * RNA for asset metadata (including tags) Part of the first Asset Browser milestone.
