Where to place .glb file and how get path to it in android?

I'm trying to set up ARCore scene with Sceneform. There are this piece of code:

(supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.single_player_ar_fragment) as ArFragment)
            .setOnTapPlaneGlbModel(link)

It loads 3d-model with .glb extension by link, which is String. I can't understand where to put .glb file and how get a path to it. I tried to put it in assets or res folders, but in 2 hours i couldn't find how to get String path to it.

I know that these folders have open() methods, which returns InputStream, but setOnTapPlaneGlbModel() needs String with a path as an argument.

Solution

  • I had assumed that the files are in the same location as the sample: https://github.com/SceneView/sceneform-android/tree/master/samples/3d-model-viewer/src/main/assets/models

    Based on comment thread:

    setOnTapPlaneGlbModel(Uri.parse(link).toString()) seems to resolve to the correct asset location and fix the issue.
