Uses A-FRAME (https://aframe.io/) to create a VR experience with content from the Magnolia Stories App.
Different block types from the story will be rendered as different 3D elements. In this version, the story is presented as if it were a museum installation.
You can see a live example of this demo here: https://blog.magnolia-cms.com/vr-blog.html
On a desktop computer, you can use the arrow keys to move through the environment.
Click on the glasses icon in the lower right corner to enter full VR mode.
Tested on desktop Safari, Chrome & Firefox, mobile Chrome & Firefox, and Oculus browser on the Oculus Go & Oculus Quest.
Uses the delivery endpoint: https://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/display/DOCS57/Delivery+endpoint+API
Note that this version is compatible with Magnolia version 5.7 & 6.0
The files in the vr-stories directory are the full VR experience which can be run on any http server.
The vr-stories-lm directory is a Magnolia Light Module which provisions the REST endpoint
that the VR client expects.
To use it on your own Magnolia instance, just drop vr-stories-lm into your resources directory - usually named modules or light-modules.
The VR client also requires XHR access to image assets on the Magnolia server. CORS must be configured properly with a filter for this to work, in the Configuration app, under server/filters. If your server configuration already has an addCORSHeaders entry, you can just make the folowing changes.
addCORSHeaders
bypasses
byPassForAllExceptRestAndImages
class: info.magnolia.voting.voters.URIRegexVoter
not: true
pattern: ^\/(\.imaging|\.rest|dam)\/(.*)
Otherwise you can use the Import action to import the _dev/cors/config.server.filters.addCORSHeaders.xml configuration bootstrap file from this repository. Be sure to place the filter directly after the server/filters/uriSecurity filter.
The VR client assumes that the Magnolia Travel Demo installed, and opens the stories-demo/lost-and-found-in-swiss-alps story by default. But you can specify the path to any story with the s parameter on the querystring (index.html?s=my-stories/went-to-seveneleven)
