# 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.
# 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.
This reverts commit 0b5302d96a.
# Objective
- Fixes#18158
- #17482 introduced rendering changes and was merged a bit too fast
## Solution
- Revert #17482 so that it can be redone and rendering changes discussed
before being merged. This will make it easier to compare changes with
main in the known "valid" state
This is not an issue with the work done in #17482 that is still
interesting
# Objective
Transparently uses simple `EnvironmentMapLight`s to mimic
`AmbientLight`s. Implements the first part of #17468, but I can
implement hemispherical lights in this PR too if needed.
## Solution
- A function `EnvironmentMapLight::solid_color(&mut Assets<Image>,
Color)` is provided to make an environment light with a solid color.
- A new system is added to `SimulationLightSystems` that maps
`AmbientLight`s on views or the world to a corresponding
`EnvironmentMapLight`.
I have never worked with (or on) Bevy before, so nitpicky comments on
how I did things are appreciated :).
## Testing
Testing was done on a modified version of the `3d/lighting` example,
where I removed all lights except the ambient light. I have not included
the example, but can if required.
## Migration
`bevy_pbr::AmbientLight` has been deprecated, so all usages of it should
be replaced by a `bevy_pbr::EnvironmentMapLight` created with
`EnvironmentMapLight::solid_color` placed on the camera. There is no
alternative to ambient lights as resources.
# Objective
- Fixes#17960
## Solution
- Followed the [edition upgrade
guide](https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/editions/transitioning-an-existing-project-to-a-new-edition.html)
## Testing
- CI

## Summary of Changes
### Documentation Indentation
When using lists in documentation, proper indentation is now linted for.
This means subsequent lines within the same list item must start at the
same indentation level as the item.
```rust
/* Valid */
/// - Item 1
/// Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;
/* Invalid */
/// - Item 1
/// Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;
```
### Implicit `!` to `()` Conversion
`!` (the never return type, returned by `panic!`, etc.) no longer
implicitly converts to `()`. This is particularly painful for systems
with `todo!` or `panic!` statements, as they will no longer be functions
returning `()` (or `Result<()>`), making them invalid systems for
functions like `add_systems`. The ideal fix would be to accept functions
returning `!` (or rather, _not_ returning), but this is blocked on the
[stabilisation of the `!` type
itself](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.never.html), which is
not done.
The "simple" fix would be to add an explicit `-> ()` to system
signatures (e.g., `|| { todo!() }` becomes `|| -> () { todo!() }`).
However, this is _also_ banned, as there is an existing lint which (IMO,
incorrectly) marks this as an unnecessary annotation.
So, the "fix" (read: workaround) is to put these kinds of `|| -> ! { ...
}` closuers into variables and give the variable an explicit type (e.g.,
`fn()`).
```rust
// Valid
let system: fn() = || todo!("Not implemented yet!");
app.add_systems(..., system);
// Invalid
app.add_systems(..., || todo!("Not implemented yet!"));
```
### Temporary Variable Lifetimes
The order in which temporary variables are dropped has changed. The
simple fix here is _usually_ to just assign temporaries to a named
variable before use.
### `gen` is a keyword
We can no longer use the name `gen` as it is reserved for a future
generator syntax. This involved replacing uses of the name `gen` with
`r#gen` (the raw-identifier syntax).
### Formatting has changed
Use statements have had the order of imports changed, causing a
substantial +/-3,000 diff when applied. For now, I have opted-out of
this change by amending `rustfmt.toml`
```toml
style_edition = "2021"
```
This preserves the original formatting for now, reducing the size of
this PR. It would be a simple followup to update this to 2024 and run
`cargo fmt`.
### New `use<>` Opt-Out Syntax
Lifetimes are now implicitly included in RPIT types. There was a handful
of instances where it needed to be added to satisfy the borrow checker,
but there may be more cases where it _should_ be added to avoid
breakages in user code.
### `MyUnitStruct { .. }` is an invalid pattern
Previously, you could match against unit structs (and unit enum
variants) with a `{ .. }` destructuring. This is no longer valid.
### Pretty much every use of `ref` and `mut` are gone
Pattern binding has changed to the point where these terms are largely
unused now. They still serve a purpose, but it is far more niche now.
### `iter::repeat(...).take(...)` is bad
New lint recommends using the more explicit `iter::repeat_n(..., ...)`
instead.
## Migration Guide
The lifetimes of functions using return-position impl-trait (RPIT) are
likely _more_ conservative than they had been previously. If you
encounter lifetime issues with such a function, please create an issue
to investigate the addition of `+ use<...>`.

Fixes#17192.
Replaces "animated_fox" with "animated_mesh".
I considered a few different names - should it say "skinned_mesh" to be
precise? Should it mention gltf? But "animated_mesh" seems intuitive and
keeps it short.
## Testing
- Ran all three examples (Windows 10).
