This parcel plugin will upload the bundle to PlayCanvas project asset. Then it would help the local development workflow i.e. Local IDE > Parcel bundler > Auto update / hot reload PlayCanvas scripts.

This works with PlayCanvas script 2.0 since they have removed the local server development!

• npm install --save-dev parcel-plugin-playcanvas or yarn add -D parcel-plugin-playcanvas on your main project

• The main project should use parcel as the bundler, recommend my other playcanvas-typescript-template, with only ONE output file for example parcel build ./src/index.ts -o bundle.js

• Need these env vars set so the plugin can authorise with PlayCanvas

  • PLAYCANVAS_PROJECT_ID
  • PLAYCANVAS_ASSET_ID
  • PLAYCANVAS_ACCESS_TOKEN

  Please follow https://github.com/whydoidoit/babel-playcanvas-template on how to get the above

• That's it and parcel will do the rest!

$ parcel build ./src/index.ts -o bundle.js
