Rename send_event and similar methods to write_event (#20017)
Fixes: #18963 Follows up on: #17977 Adopts: #18966 In 0.16, `EventWriter::send` was renamed to `EventWriter::write`, but many methods were missed (sorry about that). This completes that refactor by renaming all `send` methods and internals. | Old | New | |-------------------------------------|--------------------------------------| | `World::send_event` | `World::write_event` | | `World::send_event_default` | `World::write_event_default` | | `World::send_event_batch` | `World::write_event_batch` | | `DeferredWorld::send_event` | `DeferredWorld::write_event` | | `DeferredWorld::send_event_default` | `DeferredWorld::write_event_default` | | `DeferredWorld::send_event_batch` | `DeferredWorld::write_event_batch` | | `Commands::send_event` | `Commmands::write_event` | | `Events::send` | `Events::write` | | `Events::send_default` | `Events::write_default` | | `Events::send_batch` | `Events::write_batch` | | `RemovedComponentEvents::send` | `RemovedComponentEvents::write` | | `command::send_event` | `commmand::write_event` | | `SendBatchIds` | `WriteBatchIds` | --------- Co-authored-by: shwwwa <shwwwa.dev@gmail.com> |

New simplified "click to focus" logic for core widgets. (#19736)
Click to focus is now a global observer. # Objective Previously, the "click to focus" behavior was implemented in each individual headless widget, producing redundant logic. ## Solution The new scheme is to have a global observer which looks for pointer down events and triggers an `AcquireFocus` event on the target. This event bubbles until it finds an entity with `TabIndex`, and then focuses it. ## Testing Tested the changes using the various examples that have focusable widgets. (This will become easier to test when I add focus ring support to the examples, but that's for another day. For now you just have to know which keys to press.) ## Migration This change is backwards-compatible. People who want the new behavior will need to install the new plugin. |

Let query items borrow from query state to avoid needing to clone (#15396)
# Objective Improve the performance of `FilteredEntity(Ref|Mut)` and `Entity(Ref|Mut)Except`. `FilteredEntityRef` needs an `Access<ComponentId>` to determine what components it can access. There is one stored in the query state, but query items cannot borrow from the state, so it has to `clone()` the access for each row. Cloning the access involves memory allocations and can be expensive. ## Solution Let query items borrow from their query state. Add an `'s` lifetime to `WorldQuery::Item` and `WorldQuery::Fetch`, similar to the one in `SystemParam`, and provide `&'s Self::State` to the fetch so that it can borrow from the state. Unfortunately, there are a few cases where we currently return query items from temporary query states: the sorted iteration methods create a temporary state to query the sort keys, and the `EntityRef::components<Q>()` methods create a temporary state for their query. To allow these to continue to work with most `QueryData` implementations, introduce a new subtrait `ReleaseStateQueryData` that converts a `QueryItem<'w, 's>` to `QueryItem<'w, 'static>`, and is implemented for everything except `FilteredEntity(Ref|Mut)` and `Entity(Ref|Mut)Except`. `#[derive(QueryData)]` will generate `ReleaseStateQueryData` implementations that apply when all of the subqueries implement `ReleaseStateQueryData`. This PR does not actually change the implementation of `FilteredEntity(Ref|Mut)` or `Entity(Ref|Mut)Except`! That will be done as a follow-up PR so that the changes are easier to review. I have pushed the changes as chescock/bevy#5. ## Testing I ran performance traces of many_foxes, both against main and against chescock/bevy#5, both including #15282. These changes do appear to make generalized animation a bit faster: (Red is main, yellow is chescock/bevy#5)  ## Migration Guide The `WorldQuery::Item` and `WorldQuery::Fetch` associated types and the `QueryItem` and `ROQueryItem` type aliases now have an additional lifetime parameter corresponding to the `'s` lifetime in `Query`. Manual implementations of `WorldQuery` will need to update the method signatures to include the new lifetimes. Other uses of the types will need to be updated to include a lifetime parameter, although it can usually be passed as `'_`. In particular, `ROQueryItem` is used when implementing `RenderCommand`. Before: ```rust fn render<'w>( item: &P, view: ROQueryItem<'w, Self::ViewQuery>, entity: Option<ROQueryItem<'w, Self::ItemQuery>>, param: SystemParamItem<'w, '_, Self::Param>, pass: &mut TrackedRenderPass<'w>, ) -> RenderCommandResult; ``` After: ```rust fn render<'w>( item: &P, view: ROQueryItem<'w, '_, Self::ViewQuery>, entity: Option<ROQueryItem<'w, '_, Self::ItemQuery>>, param: SystemParamItem<'w, '_, Self::Param>, pass: &mut TrackedRenderPass<'w>, ) -> RenderCommandResult; ``` --- Methods on `QueryState` that take `&mut self` may now result in conflicting borrows if the query items capture the lifetime of the mutable reference. This affects `get()`, `iter()`, and others. To fix the errors, first call `QueryState::update_archetypes()`, and then replace a call `state.foo(world, param)` with `state.query_manual(world).foo_inner(param)`. Alternately, you may be able to restructure the code to call `state.query(world)` once and then make multiple calls using the `Query`. Before: ```rust let mut state: QueryState<_, _> = ...; let d1 = state.get(world, e1); let d2 = state.get(world, e2); // Error: cannot borrow `state` as mutable more than once at a time println!("{d1:?}"); println!("{d2:?}"); ``` After: ```rust let mut state: QueryState<_, _> = ...; state.update_archetypes(world); let d1 = state.get_manual(world, e1); let d2 = state.get_manual(world, e2); // OR state.update_archetypes(world); let d1 = state.query(world).get_inner(e1); let d2 = state.query(world).get_inner(e2); // OR let query = state.query(world); let d1 = query.get_inner(e1); let d1 = query.get_inner(e2); println!("{d1:?}"); println!("{d2:?}"); ``` |

Event Split: Event , EntityEvent , and BufferedEvent (#19647)
# Objective Closes #19564. The current `Event` trait looks like this: ```rust pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } ``` The `Event` trait is used by both buffered events (`EventReader`/`EventWriter`) and observer events. If they are observer events, they can optionally be targeted at specific `Entity`s or `ComponentId`s, and can even be propagated to other entities. However, there has long been a desire to split the trait semantically for a variety of reasons, see #14843, #14272, and #16031 for discussion. Some reasons include: - It's very uncommon to use a single event type as both a buffered event and targeted observer event. They are used differently and tend to have distinct semantics. - A common footgun is using buffered events with observers or event readers with observer events, as there is no type-level error that prevents this kind of misuse. - #19440 made `Trigger::target` return an `Option<Entity>`. This *seriously* hurts ergonomics for the general case of entity observers, as you need to `.unwrap()` each time. If we could statically determine whether the event is expected to have an entity target, this would be unnecessary. There's really two main ways that we can categorize events: push vs. pull (i.e. "observer event" vs. "buffered event") and global vs. targeted: | | Push | Pull | | ------------ | --------------- | --------------------------- | | **Global** | Global observer | `EventReader`/`EventWriter` | | **Targeted** | Entity observer | - | There are many ways to approach this, each with their tradeoffs. Ultimately, we kind of want to split events both ways: - A type-level distinction between observer events and buffered events, to prevent people from using the wrong kind of event in APIs - A statically designated entity target for observer events to avoid accidentally using untargeted events for targeted APIs This PR achieves these goals by splitting event traits into `Event`, `EntityEvent`, and `BufferedEvent`, with `Event` being the shared trait implemented by all events. ## `Event`, `EntityEvent`, and `BufferedEvent` `Event` is now a very simple trait shared by all events. ```rust pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static { // Required for observer APIs fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } ``` You can call `trigger` for *any* event, and use a global observer for listening to the event. ```rust #[derive(Event)] struct Speak { message: String, } // ... app.add_observer(|trigger: On<Speak>| { println!("{}", trigger.message); }); // ... commands.trigger(Speak { message: "Y'all like these reworked events?".to_string(), }); ``` To allow an event to be targeted at entities and even propagated further, you can additionally implement the `EntityEvent` trait: ```rust pub trait EntityEvent: Event { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; } ``` This lets you call `trigger_targets`, and to use targeted observer APIs like `EntityCommands::observe`: ```rust #[derive(Event, EntityEvent)] #[entity_event(traversal = &'static ChildOf, auto_propagate)] struct Damage { amount: f32, } // ... let enemy = commands.spawn((Enemy, Health(100.0))).id(); // Spawn some armor as a child of the enemy entity. // When the armor takes damage, it will bubble the event up to the enemy. let armor_piece = commands .spawn((ArmorPiece, Health(25.0), ChildOf(enemy))) .observe(|trigger: On<Damage>, mut query: Query<&mut Health>| { // Note: `On::target` only exists because this is an `EntityEvent`. let mut health = query.get(trigger.target()).unwrap(); health.0 -= trigger.amount(); }); commands.trigger_targets(Damage { amount: 10.0 }, armor_piece); ``` > [!NOTE] > You *can* still also trigger an `EntityEvent` without targets using `trigger`. We probably *could* make this an either-or thing, but I'm not sure that's actually desirable. To allow an event to be used with the buffered API, you can implement `BufferedEvent`: ```rust pub trait BufferedEvent: Event {} ``` The event can then be used with `EventReader`/`EventWriter`: ```rust #[derive(Event, BufferedEvent)] struct Message(String); fn write_hello(mut writer: EventWriter<Message>) { writer.write(Message("I hope these examples are alright".to_string())); } fn read_messages(mut reader: EventReader<Message>) { // Process all buffered events of type `Message`. for Message(message) in reader.read() { println!("{message}"); } } ``` In summary: - Need a basic event you can trigger and observe? Derive `Event`! - Need the event to be targeted at an entity? Derive `EntityEvent`! - Need the event to be buffered and support the `EventReader`/`EventWriter` API? Derive `BufferedEvent`! ## Alternatives I'll now cover some of the alternative approaches I have considered and briefly explored. I made this section collapsible since it ended up being quite long :P <details> <summary>Expand this to see alternatives</summary> ### 1. Unified `Event` Trait One option is not to have *three* separate traits (`Event`, `EntityEvent`, `BufferedEvent`), and to instead just use associated constants on `Event` to determine whether an event supports targeting and buffering or not: ```rust pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; const TARGETED: bool = false; const BUFFERED: bool = false; fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } ``` Methods can then use bounds like `where E: Event<TARGETED = true>` or `where E: Event<BUFFERED = true>` to limit APIs to specific kinds of events. This would keep everything under one `Event` trait, but I don't think it's necessarily a good idea. It makes APIs harder to read, and docs can't easily refer to specific types of events. You can also create weird invariants: what if you specify `TARGETED = false`, but have `Traversal` and/or `AUTO_PROPAGATE` enabled? ### 2. `Event` and `Trigger` Another option is to only split the traits between buffered events and observer events, since that is the main thing people have been asking for, and they have the largest API difference. If we did this, I think we would need to make the terms *clearly* separate. We can't really use `Event` and `BufferedEvent` as the names, since it would be strange that `BufferedEvent` doesn't implement `Event`. Something like `ObserverEvent` and `BufferedEvent` could work, but it'd be more verbose. For this approach, I would instead keep `Event` for the current `EventReader`/`EventWriter` API, and call the observer event a `Trigger`, since the "trigger" terminology is already used in the observer context within Bevy (both as a noun and a verb). This is also what a long [bikeshed on Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/749335865876021248/1298057661878898791) seemed to land on at the end of last year. ```rust // For `EventReader`/`EventWriter` pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static {} // For observers pub trait Trigger: Send + Sync + 'static { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; const TARGETED: bool = false; fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } ``` The problem is that "event" is just a really good term for something that "happens". Observers are rapidly becoming the more prominent API, so it'd be weird to give them the `Trigger` name and leave the good `Event` name for the less common API. So, even though a split like this seems neat on the surface, I think it ultimately wouldn't really work. We want to keep the `Event` name for observer events, and there is no good alternative for the buffered variant. (`Message` was suggested, but saying stuff like "sends a collision message" is weird.) ### 3. `GlobalEvent` + `TargetedEvent` What if instead of focusing on the buffered vs. observed split, we *only* make a distinction between global and targeted events? ```rust // A shared event trait to allow global observers to work pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static { fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } // For buffered events and non-targeted observer events pub trait GlobalEvent: Event {} // For targeted observer events pub trait TargetedEvent: Event { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; } ``` This is actually the first approach I implemented, and it has the neat characteristic that you can only use non-targeted APIs like `trigger` with a `GlobalEvent` and targeted APIs like `trigger_targets` with a `TargetedEvent`. You have full control over whether the entity should or should not have a target, as they are fully distinct at the type-level. However, there's a few problems: - There is no type-level indication of whether a `GlobalEvent` supports buffered events or just non-targeted observer events - An `Event` on its own does literally nothing, it's just a shared trait required to make global observers accept both non-targeted and targeted events - If an event is both a `GlobalEvent` and `TargetedEvent`, global observers again have ambiguity on whether an event has a target or not, undermining some of the benefits - The names are not ideal ### 4. `Event` and `EntityEvent` We can fix some of the problems of Alternative 3 by accepting that targeted events can also be used in non-targeted contexts, and simply having the `Event` and `EntityEvent` traits: ```rust // For buffered events and non-targeted observer events pub trait Event: Send + Sync + 'static { fn register_component_id(world: &mut World) -> ComponentId { ... } fn component_id(world: &World) -> Option<ComponentId> { ... } } // For targeted observer events pub trait EntityEvent: Event { type Traversal: Traversal<Self>; const AUTO_PROPAGATE: bool = false; } ``` This is essentially identical to this PR, just without a dedicated `BufferedEvent`. The remaining major "problem" is that there is still zero type-level indication of whether an `Event` event *actually* supports the buffered API. This leads us to the solution proposed in this PR, using `Event`, `EntityEvent`, and `BufferedEvent`. </details> ## Conclusion The `Event` + `EntityEvent` + `BufferedEvent` split proposed in this PR aims to solve all the common problems with Bevy's current event model while keeping the "weirdness" factor minimal. It splits in terms of both the push vs. pull *and* global vs. targeted aspects, while maintaining a shared concept for an "event". ### Why I Like This - The term "event" remains as a single concept for all the different kinds of events in Bevy. - Despite all event types being "events", they use fundamentally different APIs. Instead of assuming that you can use an event type with any pattern (when only one is typically supported), you explicitly opt in to each one with dedicated traits. - Using separate traits for each type of event helps with documentation and clearer function signatures. - I can safely make assumptions on expected usage. - If I see that an event is an `EntityEvent`, I can assume that I can use `observe` on it and get targeted events. - If I see that an event is a `BufferedEvent`, I can assume that I can use `EventReader` to read events. - If I see both `EntityEvent` and `BufferedEvent`, I can assume that both APIs are supported. In summary: This allows for a unified concept for events, while limiting the different ways to use them with opt-in traits. No more guess-work involved when using APIs. ### Problems? - Because `BufferedEvent` implements `Event` (for more consistent semantics etc.), you can still use all buffered events for non-targeted observers. I think this is fine/good. The important part is that if you see that an event implements `BufferedEvent`, you know that the `EventReader`/`EventWriter` API should be supported. Whether it *also* supports other APIs is secondary. - I currently only support `trigger_targets` for an `EntityEvent`. However, you can technically target components too, without targeting any entities. I consider that such a niche and advanced use case that it's not a huge problem to only support it for `EntityEvent`s, but we could also split `trigger_targets` into `trigger_entities` and `trigger_components` if we wanted to (or implement components as entities :P). - You can still trigger an `EntityEvent` *without* targets. I consider this correct, since `Event` implements the non-targeted behavior, and it'd be weird if implementing another trait *removed* behavior. However, it does mean that global observers for entity events can technically return `Entity::PLACEHOLDER` again (since I got rid of the `Option<Entity>` added in #19440 for ergonomics). I think that's enough of an edge case that it's not a huge problem, but it is worth keeping in mind. - ~~Deriving both `EntityEvent` and `BufferedEvent` for the same type currently duplicates the `Event` implementation, so you instead need to manually implement one of them.~~ Changed to always requiring `Event` to be derived. ## Related Work There are plans to implement multi-event support for observers, especially for UI contexts. [Cart's example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14649#issuecomment-2960402508) API looked like this: ```rust // Truncated for brevity trigger: Trigger<( OnAdd<Pressed>, OnRemove<Pressed>, OnAdd<InteractionDisabled>, OnRemove<InteractionDisabled>, OnInsert<Hovered>, )>, ``` I believe this shouldn't be in conflict with this PR. If anything, this PR might *help* achieve the multi-event pattern for entity observers with fewer footguns: by statically enforcing that all of these events are `EntityEvent`s in the context of `EntityCommands::observe`, we can avoid misuse or weird cases where *some* events inside the trigger are targeted while others are not. |

Fixing AutoFocus not working if it's spawn before Startup (#19618)
# Objective - `AutoFocus` component does seem to work with the `set_initial_focus` that was running in `Startup`. - If an element is spawn during `PreStartup` or during `OnEnter(SomeState)` that happens before `Startup`, the focus is overridden by `set_initial_focus` which sets the focus to the primary window. ## Solution - `set_initial_focus` only sets the focus to the `PrimaryWindow` if no other focus is set. - *Note*: `cargo test --package bevy_input_focus` was not working, so some changes are related to that. ## Testing - `cargo test --package bevy_input_focus`: OK - `cargo run --package ci`: OK |

Rename Trigger to On (#19596)
# Objective Currently, the observer API looks like this: ```rust app.add_observer(|trigger: Trigger<Explode>| { info!("Entity {} exploded!", trigger.target()); }); ``` Future plans for observers also include "multi-event observers" with a trigger that looks like this (see [Cart's example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14649#issuecomment-2960402508)): ```rust trigger: Trigger<( OnAdd<Pressed>, OnRemove<Pressed>, OnAdd<InteractionDisabled>, OnRemove<InteractionDisabled>, OnInsert<Hovered>, )>, ``` In scenarios like this, there is a lot of repetition of `On`. These are expected to be very high-traffic APIs especially in UI contexts, so ergonomics and readability are critical. By renaming `Trigger` to `On`, we can make these APIs read more cleanly and get rid of the repetition: ```rust app.add_observer(|trigger: On<Explode>| { info!("Entity {} exploded!", trigger.target()); }); ``` ```rust trigger: On<( Add<Pressed>, Remove<Pressed>, Add<InteractionDisabled>, Remove<InteractionDisabled>, Insert<Hovered>, )>, ``` Names like `On<Add<Pressed>>` emphasize the actual event listener nature more than `Trigger<OnAdd<Pressed>>`, and look cleaner. This *also* frees up the `Trigger` name if we want to use it for the observer event type, splitting them out from buffered events (bikeshedding this is out of scope for this PR though). For prior art: [`bevy_eventlistener`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_eventlistener) used [`On`](https://docs.rs/bevy_eventlistener/latest/bevy_eventlistener/event_listener/struct.On.html) for its event listener type. Though in our case, the observer is the event listener, and `On` is just a type containing information about the triggered event. ## Solution Steal from `bevy_event_listener` by @aevyrie and use `On`. - Rename `Trigger` to `On` - Rename `OnAdd` to `Add` - Rename `OnInsert` to `Insert` - Rename `OnReplace` to `Replace` - Rename `OnRemove` to `Remove` - Rename `OnDespawn` to `Despawn` ## Discussion ### Naming Conflicts?? Using a name like `Add` might initially feel like a very bad idea, since it risks conflict with `core::ops::Add`. However, I don't expect this to be a big problem in practice. - You rarely need to actually implement the `Add` trait, especially in modules that would use the Bevy ECS. - In the rare cases where you *do* get a conflict, it is very easy to fix by just disambiguating, for example using `ops::Add`. - The `Add` event is a struct while the `Add` trait is a trait (duh), so the compiler error should be very obvious. For the record, renaming `OnAdd` to `Add`, I got exactly *zero* errors or conflicts within Bevy itself. But this is of course not entirely representative of actual projects *using* Bevy. You might then wonder, why not use `Added`? This would conflict with the `Added` query filter, so it wouldn't work. Additionally, the current naming convention for observer events does not use past tense. ### Documentation This does make documentation slightly more awkward when referring to `On` or its methods. Previous docs often referred to `Trigger::target` or "sends a `Trigger`" (which is... a bit strange anyway), which would now be `On::target` and "sends an observer `Event`". You can see the diff in this PR to see some of the effects. I think it should be fine though, we may just need to reword more documentation to read better. |

Component lifecycle reorganization and documentation (#19543)
# Objective I set out with one simple goal: clearly document the differences between each of the component lifecycle events via module docs. Unfortunately, no such module existed: the various lifecycle code was scattered to the wind. Without a unified module, it's very hard to discover the related types, and there's nowhere good to put my shiny new documentation. ## Solution 1. Unify the assorted types into a single `bevy_ecs::component_lifecycle` module. 2. Write docs. 3. Write a migration guide. ## Testing Thanks CI! ## Follow-up 1. The lifecycle event names are pretty confusing, especially `OnReplace`. We should consider renaming those. No bikeshedding in my PR though! 2. Observers need real module docs too :( 3. Any additional functional changes should be done elsewhere; this is a simple docs and re-org PR. --------- Co-authored-by: theotherphil <phil.j.ellison@gmail.com> |

Remove entity placeholder from observers (#19440)
# Objective `Entity::PLACEHOLDER` acts as a magic number that will *probably* never really exist, but it certainly could. And, `Entity` has a niche, so the only reason to use `PLACEHOLDER` is as an alternative to `MaybeUninit` that trades safety risks for logic risks. As a result, bevy has generally advised against using `PLACEHOLDER`, but we still use if for a lot internally. This pr starts removing internal uses of it, starting from observers. ## Solution Change all trigger target related types from `Entity` to `Option<Entity>` Small migration guide to come. ## Testing CI ## Future Work This turned a lot of code from ```rust trigger.target() ``` to ```rust trigger.target().unwrap() ``` The extra panic is no worse than before; it's just earlier than panicking after passing the placeholder to something else. But this is kinda annoying. I would like to add a `TriggerMode` or something to `Event` that would restrict what kinds of targets can be used for that event. Many events like `Removed` etc, are always triggered with a target. We can make those have a way to assume Some, etc. But I wanted to save that for a future pr. |

Adopt consistent FooSystems naming convention for system sets (#18900)
# Objective Fixes a part of #14274. Bevy has an incredibly inconsistent naming convention for its system sets, both internally and across the ecosystem. <img alt="System sets in Bevy" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d16e2027-793f-4ba4-9cc9-e780b14a5a1b" width="450" /> *Names of public system set types in Bevy* Most Bevy types use a naming of `FooSystem` or just `Foo`, but there are also a few `FooSystems` and `FooSet` types. In ecosystem crates on the other hand, `FooSet` is perhaps the most commonly used name in general. Conventions being so wildly inconsistent can make it harder for users to pick names for their own types, to search for system sets on docs.rs, or to even discern which types *are* system sets. To reign in the inconsistency a bit and help unify the ecosystem, it would be good to establish a common recommended naming convention for system sets in Bevy itself, similar to how plugins are commonly suffixed with `Plugin` (ex: `TimePlugin`). By adopting a consistent naming convention in first-party Bevy, we can softly nudge ecosystem crates to follow suit (for types where it makes sense to do so). Choosing a naming convention is also relevant now, as the [`bevy_cli` recently adopted lints](https://github.com/TheBevyFlock/bevy_cli/pull/345) to enforce naming for plugins and system sets, and the recommended naming used for system sets is still a bit open. ## Which Name To Use? Now the contentious part: what naming convention should we actually adopt? This was discussed on the Bevy Discord at the end of last year, starting [here](<https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1310659954683936789>). `FooSet` and `FooSystems` were the clear favorites, with `FooSet` very narrowly winning an unofficial poll. However, it seems to me like the consensus was broadly moving towards `FooSystems` at the end and after the poll, with Cart ([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311140204974706708)) and later Alice ([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311092530732859533)) and also me being in favor of it. Let's do a quick pros and cons list! Of course these are just what I thought of, so take it with a grain of salt. `FooSet`: - Pro: Nice and short! - Pro: Used by many ecosystem crates. - Pro: The `Set` suffix comes directly from the trait name `SystemSet`. - Pro: Pairs nicely with existing APIs like `in_set` and `configure_sets`. - Con: `Set` by itself doesn't actually indicate that it's related to systems *at all*, apart from the implemented trait. A set of what? - Con: Is `FooSet` a set of `Foo`s or a system set related to `Foo`? Ex: `ContactSet`, `MeshSet`, `EnemySet`... `FooSystems`: - Pro: Very clearly indicates that the type represents a collection of systems. The actual core concept, system(s), is in the name. - Pro: Parallels nicely with `FooPlugins` for plugin groups. - Pro: Low risk of conflicts with other names or misunderstandings about what the type is. - Pro: In most cases, reads *very* nicely and clearly. Ex: `PhysicsSystems` and `AnimationSystems` as opposed to `PhysicsSet` and `AnimationSet`. - Pro: Easy to search for on docs.rs. - Con: Usually results in longer names. - Con: Not yet as widely used. Really the big problem with `FooSet` is that it doesn't actually describe what it is. It describes what *kind of thing* it is (a set of something), but not *what it is a set of*, unless you know the type or check its docs or implemented traits. `FooSystems` on the other hand is much more self-descriptive in this regard, at the cost of being a bit longer to type. Ultimately, in some ways it comes down to preference and how you think of system sets. Personally, I was originally in favor of `FooSet`, but have been increasingly on the side of `FooSystems`, especially after seeing what the new names would actually look like in Avian and now Bevy. I prefer it because it usually reads better, is much more clearly related to groups of systems than `FooSet`, and overall *feels* more correct and natural to me in the long term. For these reasons, and because Alice and Cart also seemed to share a preference for it when it was previously being discussed, I propose that we adopt a `FooSystems` naming convention where applicable. ## Solution Rename Bevy's system set types to use a consistent `FooSet` naming where applicable. - `AccessibilitySystem` → `AccessibilitySystems` - `GizmoRenderSystem` → `GizmoRenderSystems` - `PickSet` → `PickingSystems` - `RunFixedMainLoopSystem` → `RunFixedMainLoopSystems` - `TransformSystem` → `TransformSystems` - `RemoteSet` → `RemoteSystems` - `RenderSet` → `RenderSystems` - `SpriteSystem` → `SpriteSystems` - `StateTransitionSteps` → `StateTransitionSystems` - `RenderUiSystem` → `RenderUiSystems` - `UiSystem` → `UiSystems` - `Animation` → `AnimationSystems` - `AssetEvents` → `AssetEventSystems` - `TrackAssets` → `AssetTrackingSystems` - `UpdateGizmoMeshes` → `GizmoMeshSystems` - `InputSystem` → `InputSystems` - `InputFocusSet` → `InputFocusSystems` - `ExtractMaterialsSet` → `MaterialExtractionSystems` - `ExtractMeshesSet` → `MeshExtractionSystems` - `RumbleSystem` → `RumbleSystems` - `CameraUpdateSystem` → `CameraUpdateSystems` - `ExtractAssetsSet` → `AssetExtractionSystems` - `Update2dText` → `Text2dUpdateSystems` - `TimeSystem` → `TimeSystems` - `AudioPlaySet` → `AudioPlaybackSystems` - `SendEvents` → `EventSenderSystems` - `EventUpdates` → `EventUpdateSystems` A lot of the names got slightly longer, but they are also a lot more consistent, and in my opinion the majority of them read much better. For a few of the names I took the liberty of rewording things a bit; definitely open to any further naming improvements. There are still also cases where the `FooSystems` naming doesn't really make sense, and those I left alone. This primarily includes system sets like `Interned<dyn SystemSet>`, `EnterSchedules<S>`, `ExitSchedules<S>`, or `TransitionSchedules<S>`, where the type has some special purpose and semantics. ## Todo - [x] Should I keep all the old names as deprecated type aliases? I can do this, but to avoid wasting work I'd prefer to first reach consensus on whether these renames are even desired. - [x] Migration guide - [x] Release notes |

Switch ChildOf back to tuple struct (#18672)
# Objective In #17905 we swapped to a named field on `ChildOf` to help resolve variable naming ambiguity of child vs parent (ex: `child_of.parent` clearly reads as "I am accessing the parent of the child_of relationship", whereas `child_of.0` is less clear). Unfortunately this has the side effect of making initialization less ideal. `ChildOf { parent }` reads just as well as `ChildOf(parent)`, but `ChildOf { parent: root }` doesn't read nearly as well as `ChildOf(root)`. ## Solution Move back to `ChildOf(pub Entity)` but add a `child_of.parent()` function and use it for all accesses. The downside here is that users are no longer "forced" to access the parent field with `parent` nomenclature, but I think this strikes the right balance. Take a look at the diff. I think the results provide strong evidence for this change. Initialization has the benefit of reading much better _and_ of taking up significantly less space, as many lines go from 3 to 1, and we're cutting out a bunch of syntax in some cases. Sadly I do think this should land in 0.16 as the cost of doing this _after_ the relationships migration is high. |

bevy_reflect: Add clone registrations project-wide (#18307)
# Objective Now that #13432 has been merged, it's important we update our reflected types to properly opt into this feature. If we do not, then this could cause issues for users downstream who want to make use of reflection-based cloning. ## Solution This PR is broken into 4 commits: 1. Add `#[reflect(Clone)]` on all types marked `#[reflect(opaque)]` that are also `Clone`. This is mandatory as these types would otherwise cause the cloning operation to fail for any type that contains it at any depth. 2. Update the reflection example to suggest adding `#[reflect(Clone)]` on opaque types. 3. Add `#[reflect(clone)]` attributes on all fields marked `#[reflect(ignore)]` that are also `Clone`. This prevents the ignored field from causing the cloning operation to fail. Note that some of the types that contain these fields are also `Clone`, and thus can be marked `#[reflect(Clone)]`. This makes the `#[reflect(clone)]` attribute redundant. However, I think it's safer to keep it marked in the case that the `Clone` impl/derive is ever removed. I'm open to removing them, though, if people disagree. 4. Finally, I added `#[reflect(Clone)]` on all types that are also `Clone`. While not strictly necessary, it enables us to reduce the generated output since we can just call `Clone::clone` directly instead of calling `PartialReflect::reflect_clone` on each variant/field. It also means we benefit from any optimizations or customizations made in the `Clone` impl, including directly dereferencing `Copy` values and increasing reference counters. Along with that change I also took the liberty of adding any missing registrations that I saw could be applied to the type as well, such as `Default`, `PartialEq`, and `Hash`. There were hundreds of these to edit, though, so it's possible I missed quite a few. That last commit is **_massive_**. There were nearly 700 types to update. So it's recommended to review the first three before moving onto that last one. Additionally, I can break the last commit off into its own PR or into smaller PRs, but I figured this would be the easiest way of doing it (and in a timely manner since I unfortunately don't have as much time as I used to for code contributions). ## Testing You can test locally with a `cargo check`: ``` cargo check --workspace --all-features ``` |

Make Query::single (and friends) return a Result (#18082)
# Objective As discussed in #14275, Bevy is currently too prone to panic, and makes the easy / beginner-friendly way to do a large number of operations just to panic on failure. This is seriously frustrating in library code, but also slows down development, as many of the `Query::single` panics can actually safely be an early return (these panics are often due to a small ordering issue or a change in game state. More critically, in most "finished" products, panics are unacceptable: any unexpected failures should be handled elsewhere. That's where the new With the advent of good system error handling, we can now remove this. Note: I was instrumental in a) introducing this idea in the first place and b) pushing to make the panicking variant the default. The introduction of both `let else` statements in Rust and the fancy system error handling work in 0.16 have changed my mind on the right balance here. ## Solution 1. Make `Query::single` and `Query::single_mut` (and other random related methods) return a `Result`. 2. Handle all of Bevy's internal usage of these APIs. 3. Deprecate `Query::get_single` and friends, since we've moved their functionality to the nice names. 4. Add detailed advice on how to best handle these errors. Generally I like the diff here, although `get_single().unwrap()` in tests is a bit of a downgrade. ## Testing I've done a global search for `.single` to track down any missed deprecated usages. As to whether or not all the migrations were successful, that's what CI is for :) ## Future work ~~Rename `Query::get_single` and friends to `Query::single`!~~ ~~I've opted not to do this in this PR, and smear it across two releases in order to ease the migration. Successive deprecations are much easier to manage than the semantics and types shifting under your feet.~~ Cart has convinced me to change my mind on this; see https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18082#discussion_r1974536085. ## Migration guide `Query::single`, `Query::single_mut` and their `QueryState` equivalents now return a `Result`. Generally, you'll want to: 1. Use Bevy 0.16's system error handling to return a `Result` using the `?` operator. 2. Use a `let else Ok(data)` block to early return if it's an expected failure. 3. Use `unwrap()` or `Ok` destructuring inside of tests. The old `Query::get_single` (etc) methods which did this have been deprecated. |

Remove ChildOf::get and Deref impl (#18080)
# Objective There are currently three ways to access the parent stored on a ChildOf relationship: 1. `child_of.parent` (field accessor) 2. `child_of.get()` (get function) 3. `**child_of` (Deref impl) I will assert that we should only have one (the field accessor), and that the existence of the other implementations causes confusion and legibility issues. The deref approach is heinous, and `child_of.get()` is significantly less clear than `child_of.parent`. ## Solution Remove `impl Deref for ChildOf` and `ChildOf::get`. The one "downside" I'm seeing is that: ```rust entity.get::<ChildOf>().map(ChildOf::get) ``` Becomes this: ```rust entity.get::<ChildOf>().map(|c| c.parent) ``` I strongly believe that this is worth the increased clarity and consistency. I'm also not really a huge fan of the "pass function pointer to map" syntax. I think most people don't think this way about maps. They think in terms of a function that takes the item in the Option and returns the result of some action on it. ## Migration Guide ```rust // Before **child_of // After child_of.parent // Before child_of.get() // After child_of.parent // Before entity.get::<ChildOf>().map(ChildOf::get) // After entity.get::<ChildOf>().map(|c| c.parent) ``` |

Refactored ComponentHook Parameters into HookContext (#17503)
# Objective - Make the function signature for `ComponentHook` less verbose ## Solution - Refactored `Entity`, `ComponentId`, and `Option<&Location>` into a new `HookContext` struct. ## Testing - CI --- ## Migration Guide Update the function signatures for your component hooks to only take 2 arguments, `world` and `context`. Note that because `HookContext` is plain data with all members public, you can use de-structuring to simplify migration. ```rust // Before fn my_hook( mut world: DeferredWorld, entity: Entity, component_id: ComponentId, ) { ... } // After fn my_hook( mut world: DeferredWorld, HookContext { entity, component_id, caller }: HookContext, ) { ... } ``` Likewise, if you were discarding certain parameters, you can use `..` in the de-structuring: ```rust // Before fn my_hook( mut world: DeferredWorld, entity: Entity, _: ComponentId, ) { ... } // After fn my_hook( mut world: DeferredWorld, HookContext { entity, .. }: HookContext, ) { ... } ``` |

Parent -> ChildOf (#17427)
Fixes #17412 ## Objective `Parent` uses the "has a X" naming convention. There is increasing sentiment that we should use the "is a X" naming convention for relationships (following #17398). This leaves `Children` as-is because there is prevailing sentiment that `Children` is clearer than `ParentOf` in many cases (especially when treating it like a collection). This renames `Parent` to `ChildOf`. This is just the implementation PR. To discuss the path forward, do so in #17412. ## Migration Guide - The `Parent` component has been renamed to `ChildOf`. |

Relationships (non-fragmenting, one-to-many) (#17398)
This adds support for one-to-many non-fragmenting relationships (with planned paths for fragmenting and non-fragmenting many-to-many relationships). "Non-fragmenting" means that entities with the same relationship type, but different relationship targets, are not forced into separate tables (which would cause "table fragmentation"). Functionally, this fills a similar niche as the current Parent/Children system. The biggest differences are: 1. Relationships have simpler internals and significantly improved performance and UX. Commands and specialized APIs are no longer necessary to keep everything in sync. Just spawn entities with the relationship components you want and everything "just works". 2. Relationships are generalized. Bevy can provide additional built in relationships, and users can define their own. **REQUEST TO REVIEWERS**: _please don't leave top level comments and instead comment on specific lines of code. That way we can take advantage of threaded discussions. Also dont leave comments simply pointing out CI failures as I can read those just fine._ ## Built on top of what we have Relationships are implemented on top of the Bevy ECS features we already have: components, immutability, and hooks. This makes them immediately compatible with all of our existing (and future) APIs for querying, spawning, removing, scenes, reflection, etc. The fewer specialized APIs we need to build, maintain, and teach, the better. ## Why focus on one-to-many non-fragmenting first? 1. This allows us to improve Parent/Children relationships immediately, in a way that is reasonably uncontroversial. Switching our hierarchy to fragmenting relationships would have significant performance implications. ~~Flecs is heavily considering a switch to non-fragmenting relations after careful considerations of the performance tradeoffs.~~ _(Correction from @SanderMertens: Flecs is implementing non-fragmenting storage specialized for asset hierarchies, where asset hierarchies are many instances of small trees that have a well defined structure)_ 2. Adding generalized one-to-many relationships is currently a priority for the [Next Generation Scene / UI effort](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437). Specifically, we're interested in building reactions and observers on top. ## The changes This PR does the following: 1. Adds a generic one-to-many Relationship system 3. Ports the existing Parent/Children system to Relationships, which now lives in `bevy_ecs::hierarchy`. The old `bevy_hierarchy` crate has been removed. 4. Adds on_despawn component hooks 5. Relationships can opt-in to "despawn descendants" behavior, meaning that the entire relationship hierarchy is despawned when `entity.despawn()` is called. The built in Parent/Children hierarchies enable this behavior, and `entity.despawn_recursive()` has been removed. 6. `world.spawn` now applies commands after spawning. This ensures that relationship bookkeeping happens immediately and removes the need to manually flush. This is in line with the equivalent behaviors recently added to the other APIs (ex: insert). 7. Removes the ValidParentCheckPlugin (system-driven / poll based) in favor of a `validate_parent_has_component` hook. ## Using Relationships The `Relationship` trait looks like this: ```rust pub trait Relationship: Component + Sized { type RelationshipSources: RelationshipSources<Relationship = Self>; fn get(&self) -> Entity; fn from(entity: Entity) -> Self; } ``` A relationship is a component that: 1. Is a simple wrapper over a "target" Entity. 2. Has a corresponding `RelationshipSources` component, which is a simple wrapper over a collection of entities. Every "target entity" targeted by a "source entity" with a `Relationship` has a `RelationshipSources` component, which contains every "source entity" that targets it. For example, the `Parent` component (as it currently exists in Bevy) is the `Relationship` component and the entity containing the Parent is the "source entity". The entity _inside_ the `Parent(Entity)` component is the "target entity". And that target entity has a `Children` component (which implements `RelationshipSources`). In practice, the Parent/Children relationship looks like this: ```rust #[derive(Relationship)] #[relationship(relationship_sources = Children)] pub struct Parent(pub Entity); #[derive(RelationshipSources)] #[relationship_sources(relationship = Parent)] pub struct Children(Vec<Entity>); ``` The Relationship and RelationshipSources derives automatically implement Component with the relevant configuration (namely, the hooks necessary to keep everything in sync). The most direct way to add relationships is to spawn entities with relationship components: ```rust let a = world.spawn_empty().id(); let b = world.spawn(Parent(a)).id(); assert_eq!(world.entity(a).get::<Children>().unwrap(), &[b]); ``` There are also convenience APIs for spawning more than one entity with the same relationship: ```rust world.spawn_empty().with_related::<Children>(|s| { s.spawn_empty(); s.spawn_empty(); }) ``` The existing `with_children` API is now a simpler wrapper over `with_related`. This makes this change largely non-breaking for existing spawn patterns. ```rust world.spawn_empty().with_children(|s| { s.spawn_empty(); s.spawn_empty(); }) ``` There are also other relationship APIs, such as `add_related` and `despawn_related`. ## Automatic recursive despawn via the new on_despawn hook `RelationshipSources` can opt-in to "despawn descendants" behavior, which will despawn all related entities in the relationship hierarchy: ```rust #[derive(RelationshipSources)] #[relationship_sources(relationship = Parent, despawn_descendants)] pub struct Children(Vec<Entity>); ``` This means that `entity.despawn_recursive()` is no longer required. Instead, just use `entity.despawn()` and the relevant related entities will also be despawned. To despawn an entity _without_ despawning its parent/child descendants, you should remove the `Children` component first, which will also remove the related `Parent` components: ```rust entity .remove::<Children>() .despawn() ``` This builds on the on_despawn hook introduced in this PR, which is fired when an entity is despawned (before other hooks). ## Relationships are the source of truth `Relationship` is the _single_ source of truth component. `RelationshipSources` is merely a reflection of what all the `Relationship` components say. By embracing this, we are able to significantly improve the performance of the system as a whole. We can rely on component lifecycles to protect us against duplicates, rather than needing to scan at runtime to ensure entities don't already exist (which results in quadratic runtime). A single source of truth gives us constant-time inserts. This does mean that we cannot directly spawn populated `Children` components (or directly add or remove entities from those components). I personally think this is a worthwhile tradeoff, both because it makes the performance much better _and_ because it means theres exactly one way to do things (which is a philosophy we try to employ for Bevy APIs). As an aside: treating both sides of the relationship as "equivalent source of truth relations" does enable building simple and flexible many-to-many relationships. But this introduces an _inherent_ need to scan (or hash) to protect against duplicates. [`evergreen_relations`](https://github.com/EvergreenNest/evergreen_relations) has a very nice implementation of the "symmetrical many-to-many" approach. Unfortunately I think the performance issues inherent to that approach make it a poor choice for Bevy's default relationship system. ## Followup Work * Discuss renaming `Parent` to `ChildOf`. I refrained from doing that in this PR to keep the diff reasonable, but I'm personally biased toward this change (and using that naming pattern generally for relationships). * [Improved spawning ergonomics](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/16920) * Consider adding relationship observers/triggers for "relationship targets" whenever a source is added or removed. This would replace the current "hierarchy events" system, which is unused upstream but may have existing users downstream. I think triggers are the better fit for this than a buffered event queue, and would prefer not to add that back. * Fragmenting relations: My current idea hinges on the introduction of "value components" (aka: components whose type _and_ value determines their ComponentId, via something like Hashing / PartialEq). By labeling a Relationship component such as `ChildOf(Entity)` as a "value component", `ChildOf(e1)` and `ChildOf(e2)` would be considered "different components". This makes the transition between fragmenting and non-fragmenting a single flag, and everything else continues to work as expected. * Many-to-many support * Non-fragmenting: We can expand Relationship to be a list of entities instead of a single entity. I have largely already written the code for this. * Fragmenting: With the "value component" impl mentioned above, we get many-to-many support "for free", as it would allow inserting multiple copies of a Relationship component with different target entities. Fixes #3742 (If this PR is merged, I think we should open more targeted followup issues for the work above, with a fresh tracking issue free of the large amount of less-directed historical context) Fixes #17301 Fixes #12235 Fixes #15299 Fixes #15308 ## Migration Guide * Replace `ChildBuilder` with `ChildSpawnerCommands`. * Replace calls to `.set_parent(parent_id)` with `.insert(Parent(parent_id))`. * Replace calls to `.replace_children()` with `.remove::<Children>()` followed by `.add_children()`. Note that you'll need to manually despawn any children that are not carried over. * Replace calls to `.despawn_recursive()` with `.despawn()`. * Replace calls to `.despawn_descendants()` with `.despawn_related::<Children>()`. * If you have any calls to `.despawn()` which depend on the children being preserved, you'll need to remove the `Children` component first. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> |

Add basic directional (gamepad) navigation for UI (and non-UI) (#17102)
# Objective While directional navigation is helpful for UI in general for accessibility reasons, it is *especially* valuable for a game engine, where menus may be navigated primarily or exclusively through the use of a game controller. Thumb-stick powered cursor-based navigation can work as a fallback, but is generally a pretty poor user experience. We can do better! ## Prior art Within Bevy, https://github.com/nicopap/ui-navigation and https://github.com/rparrett/bevy-alt-ui-navigation-lite exist to solve this same problem. This isn't yet a complete replacement for that ecosystem, but hopefully we'll be there for 0.16. ## Solution UI navigation is complicated, and the right tradeoffs will vary based on the project and even the individual scene. We're starting with something simple and flexible, hooking into the existing `InputFocus` resource, and storing a manually constructed graph of entities to explore in a `DirectionalNavigationMap` resource. The developer experience won't be great (so much wiring to do!), but the tools are all there for a great user experience. We could have chosen to represent these linkages via component-flavored not-quite-relations. This would be useful for inspectors, and would give us automatic cleanup when the entities were despawned, but seriously complicates the developer experience when building and checking this API. For now, we're doing a dumb "entity graph in a resource" thing and `remove` helpers. Once relations are added, we can re-evaluate. I've decided to use a `CompassOctant` as our key for the possible paths. This should give users a reasonable amount of precise control without being fiddly, and playing reasonably nicely with arrow-key navigation. This design lets us store the set of entities that we're connected to as a 8-byte array (yay Entity-niching). In theory, this is maybe nicer than the double indirection of two hashmaps. but if this ends up being slow we should create benchmarks. To make this work more pleasant, I've added a few utilities to the `CompassOctant` type: converting to and from usize, and adding a helper to find the 180 degrees opposite direction. These have been mirrored onto `CompassQuadrant` for consistency: they should be generally useful for game logic. ## Future work This is a relatively complex initiative! In the hopes of easing review and avoiding merge conflicts, I've opted to split this work into bite-sized chunks. Before 0.16, I'd like to have: - An example demonstrating gamepad and tab-based navigation in a realistic game menu - Helpers to convert axis-based inputs into compass quadrants / octants - Tools to check the listed graph desiderata - A helper to build a graph from a grid of entities - A tool to automatically build a graph given a supplied UI layout One day, it would be sweet if: - We had an example demonstrating how to use focus navigation in a non-UI scene to cycle between game objects - Standard actions for tab-style and directional navigation with a first-party bevy_actions integration - We had a visual debugging tool to display these navigation graphs for QC purposes - There was a built-in way to go "up a level" by cancelling the current action - The navigation graph is built completely out of relations ## Testing - tests for the new `CompassQuadrant` / `CompassOctant` methods - tests for the new directional navigation module --------- Co-authored-by: Rob Parrett <robparrett@gmail.com> |

Polish and improve docs for bevy_input_focus (#16887)
# Objective `bevy_input_focus` needs some love before we ship it to users. There's a few missing helper methods, the docs could be improved, and `AutoFocus` should be more generally available. ## Solution The changes here are broken down by commit, and should generally be uncontroversial. The ones to focus on during review are: - Make navigate take a & InputFocus argument: this makes the intended pattern clearer to users - Remove TabGroup requirement from `AutoFocus`: I want auto-focusing even with gamepad-style focus navigation! - Handle case where tab group is None more gracefully: I think we can try harder to provide something usable, and shouldn't just fail to navigate ## Testing The `tab_navigation` example continues to work. |

Generalize bubbling focus input events to other kinds of input (#16876)
# Objective The new `bevy_input_focus` crates has a tool to bubble input events up the entity hierarchy, ending with the window, based on the currently focused entity. Right now though, this only works for keyboard events! Both `bevy_ui` buttons and `bevy_egui` should hook into this system (primarily for contextual hotkeys), and we would like to drive `leafwing_input_manager` via these events, to help resolve longstanding pain around "absorbing" / "consuming" inputs based on focus. In order to make that work properly though, we need gamepad support! ## Solution The logic backing this has been changed to be generic for any cloneable event types, and the machinery to make use of this externally has been made `pub`. Within the engine itself, I've added support for gamepad button and scroll events, but nothing else. Mouse button / touch bubbling is handled via bevy_picking, and mouse / gamepad motion doesn't really make sense to bubble. ## Testing The `tab_navigation` example continues to work, and CI is green. ## Future Work I would like to add more complex UI examples to stress test this, but not here please. We should take advantage of the bubbled mouse scrolling when defining scrolled widgets. |

Document input focus helper methods (#16875)
# Objective I am suspicious of the command / world helpers for input focus, since they just provide a trivial helper for setting a resource value. ## Solution Document that there's nothing magic about them. These can live another day, but I would also remove them completely if y'all convince me it's the right choice. |

Replace bevy_a11y::Focus with InputFocus (#16863)
# Objective Bevy now has first-class input focus handling! We should use this for accessibility purpose via accesskit too. ## Solution - Removed bevy_a11y::Focus. - Replaced all usages of Focus with InputFocus - Changed the dependency tree so bevy_a11y relies on bevy_input_focus - Moved initialization of the focus (starts with the primary window) from bevy_window to bevy_input_focus to avoid circular dependencies (and it's cleaner) ## Testing TODO ## Migration Guide `bevy_a11y::Focus` has been replaced with `bevy_input_focus::Focus`. |

Expose text field from winit in KeyboardInput (#16864)
# Objective
Allow handling of dead keys on some keyboard layouts.
In some cases, dead keys were impossible to get using the
`KeyboardInput` event. This information is already present in the
underlying winit `KeyEvent`, but it wasn't exposed.
## Solution
Expose the `text` field from winit's `KeyEvent` in `KeyboardInput`.
This logic is inspired egui's implementation here:

Tab navigation framework for bevy_input_focus. (#16795)
# Objective This PR continues the work of `bevy_input_focus` by adding a pluggable tab navigation framework. As part of this work, `FocusKeyboardEvent` now propagates to the window after exhausting all ancestors. ## Testing Unit tests and manual tests. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> |

Improve bevy_input_focus (#16749)
# Objective I was curious to use the newly created `bevy_input_focus`, but I found some issues with it - It was only implementing traits for `World`. - Lack of tests - `is_focus_within` logic was incorrect. ## Solution This PR includes some improvements to the `bevy_input_focus` crate: - Add new `IsFocusedHelper` that doesn't require access to `&World`. It implements `IsFocused` - Remove `IsFocused` impl for `DeferredWorld`. Since it already implements `Deref<Target=World>` it was just duplication of code. - impl `SetInputFocus` for `Commands`. There was no way to use `SetFocusCommand` directly. This allows it. - The `is_focus_within` logic has been fixed to check descendants. Previously it was checking if any of the ancestors had focus which is not correct according to the documentation. - Added a bunch of unit tests to verify the logic of the crate. ## Testing - Did you test these changes? If so, how? Yes, running newly added unit tests. --- |

bevy_input_focus improvements (follow-up PR) (#16665)
This adds a few minor items which were left out of the previous PR: - Added synchronization from bevy_input_focus to bevy_a11y. - Initialize InputFocusVisible resource. - Make `input_focus` available from `bevy` module. I've tested this using VoiceOver on Mac OS. It works, but it needs considerable polish. |

Add "bevy_input_focus" crate. (#15611)
# Objective Define a framework for handling keyboard focus and bubbled keyboard events, as discussed in #15374. ## Solution Introduces a new crate, `bevy_input_focus`. This crate provides: * A resource for tracking which entity has keyboard focus. * Methods for getting and setting keyboard focus. * Event definitions for triggering bubble-able keyboard input events to the focused entity. * A system for dispatching keyboard input events to the focused entity. This crate does *not* provide any integration with UI widgets, or provide functions for tab navigation or gamepad-based focus navigation, as those are typically application-specific. ## Testing Most of the code has been copied from a different project, one that has been well tested. However, most of what's in this module consists of type definitions, with relatively small amounts of executable code. That being said, I expect that there will be substantial bikeshedding on the design, and I would prefer to hold off writing tests until after things have settled. I think that an example would be appropriate, however I'm waiting on a few other pending changes to Bevy before doing so. In particular, I can see a simple example with four buttons, with focus navigation between them, and which can be triggered by the keyboard. @alice-i-cecile |
