[x3d-public] Ways to use X3D JSON SAI today! Become a beta tester!

[John Carlson]

Note this is missing important JSON schema validation, which you get by using X3DJSONLD! See message with src/main/html/prototypes.html (previous), or roll your own schema validator. I leave the choice up to you!

Include https://www.x3dom.org/download/dev/x3dom-full.js.  See documentation on x3dom.Runtime.prototype.createX3DFromJS and x3dom.Runtime.prototype.replaceWorld

Generally, this is done like the following for X3DOM:

var doc = document.querySelector(selector);
if (doc.hasRuntime && doc.runtime.ready) {
                            var x3d = doc.runtime.createX3DFromJS(jsobj, optionalURL)
                            if (x3d != null) {
                                    try {
                                        doc.runtime.replaceWorld(x3d);
                                    } catch (e) {
                                            console.error(e);
                                            alert(e);
                                    }
                            } else {
                                    x3dom.debug.logError("createX3DFromJS: could not fetch or parse " + jsobj);
                            }
}
Include https://cdn.rawgit.com/create3000/x_ite/4.2.2/dist/x_ite.min.js


Then call Browser.importJS and Browser.replaceWorld, for X_ITE, like:

        X3D(function() {
                if (typeof X3D.getBrowser !== 'undefined') {
                        var browser = X3D.getBrowser(selector);
                        if (typeof browser !== 'undefined' && typeof browser.importJS !== 'undefined') {
                                var importedScene = browser.importJS(jsobj);
                                browser.replaceWorld(importedScene);
                        }
                }
        }, function() {
                alert("Failed to render JSON to X_ITE");
        });

While this is close to a common interface, it’s not quite there yet. And if X3DOM and X_ITE are running in the same application, they need to be distinguished somehow.

Note, these have not been tested extensively in current versions, so if you try them and they don’t work, file a bug!  I will be testing them RSN. Join me!
