Goal
Place soft links to the glb files created by Blender in the staging tree in a single directory, web/batch_glb_png/glbs, , so the glb->PNG converter can easily process a set of files in one directory and not have to navigate the staging tree.
Introduction
This is a simple run-a-script exercise. (Note: the name of the link has the complete directory path as part of the link name rather than a 1:1 match of the file name it links to.)
Steps
In a command console:
cd ...web/batch_glb_png
date; time ./link_glbs.sh [PATH to the root directory of your GitHub staging area]
You can verify how many links were created using:
...web/batch_glb_png $ ls -la glbs/ |wc -l
Example:
jlpoole@jp ~/work/Voron/voronstl/web/batch_glb_png $ date; time ./link_glbs.sh /home/jlpoole/work/Voron/test1

ROOT: /home/jlpoole/work/Voron/test1
OUTDIR: /home/jlpoole/work/Voron/voronstl/web/batch_glb_png/glbs
LOG: link_glbs_20260304_185115.log

jlpoole@jp ~/work/Voron/voronstl/web/batch_glb_png $ ls -la glbs/ |wc -l
136
jlpoole@jp ~/work/Voron/voronstl/web/batch_glb_png $
And, the script can be run over-and-over again and not step on previously created links.
Example, see "skipped=131" below:
jlpoole@jp ~/work/Voron/voronstl/web/batch_glb_png $ date; time ./link_glbs.sh /home/jlpoole/work/Voron/test1
