Otherwise debug logging will be completely swamped with logs from other libraries. Maybe that's nice too at some point, but that would need another CLI arg.
Blender Asset Tracer BAT🦇
Script to manage assets with Blender.
Blender Asset Tracer, a.k.a. BAT🦇, is the replacement of BAM and blender-file
Development is driven by choices explained in T54125.
Paths
There are two object types used to represent file paths. Those are strictly separated.
bpathlib.BlendPathrepresents a path as stored in a blend file. It consists of bytes, and is blendfile-relative when it starts with//. It can represent any path from any OS Blender supports, and as such should be used carefully.pathlib.Pathrepresents an actual path, possibly on the local filesystem of the computer running BAT. Any filesystem operation (such as checking whether it exists) must be done using apathlib.Path.
When it is necessary to interpret a bpathlib.BlendPath as a real path instead of a sequence of
bytes, BAT first attempts to decode it as UTF-8. If that fails, the local filesystem encoding is
used. The latter is also no guarantee of correctness, though.
Type checking
The code statically type-checked with mypy.
Mypy likes to see the return type of __init__ methods explicitly declared as None. Until issue
#604 is resolved, we just do this in our code too.
