Compress GLB via Node.js
Build your own Node.js apps to compress GLB files using server-side APIs.
How to Compress GLB File Using Node.js
In order to compress GLB file, we’ll use
Aspose.3D for Node.js via Java
API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use API for Node.js platform to be used with compress any 3D file. You can download its latest version directly from
and by adding configuration in pom.xml. You may also use the following command from the Package Manager Console.
Package Manager Console Command
PM> Install-Package Aspose.3D
Steps to Compress GLB via Node.js
Aspose.3D makes it easy for the developers to compress the GLB file with just few lines of code.
- Load GLB file via the constructor of Scene class
- Define the output path of the compressed file
- Create an instance of SaveOptions
- Call the Scene.Save method with object
System Requirements
Aspose.3D for Node.js is supported on all major operating systems. Just make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS.
- Install Oracle JDK 7 or higher.
- Aspose.3D for Node.js referenced in your project.
About Aspose.3D for Node.js API
Aspose.3D is a CAD and Gameware API to load, modify and convert 3D files. API is a standalone and does not require any any 3D modeling or rendering software. One can easily use API for Discreet3DS, WavefrontOBJ, STL (ASCII, Binary), Universal3D, FBX (ASCII, Binary), Collada, glTF, PLY, GLB, DirectX and more formats.GLB What is GLB File Format?
GLB is the binary file format representation of 3D models saved in the GL transmission format (glTF). Information about 3D models such as node hierarchy, cameras, materials, animations and meshes in binary format. This binary format stores the glTF asset (JSON, .bin and images) in a binary blob. It also avoids the issue of increase in file size which happens in case of glTF. GLB file format results in compact file sizes, fast loading, complete 3D scene representation, and extensibility for further development. The format uses model/gltf-binary as MIME type.
