Chromium Embedded Framework as Godot 3.5 native module

This repository contains the source code of some C++ classes wrapping a subset of the Chromium Embedded Framework API into a Godot 3.4 or Godot 3.5 native module (GDNative) which allows you to implement a web browser for your 2D and 3D games through your gdscripts for Linux and Windows. We have named this CEF GDNative module gdcef.

This module can be downloaded directly from the Godot asset library:

Note: You are a Godot-4 dev? You are on the wrong branch. Please go to https://github.com/Lecrapouille/gdcef/tree/godot-4.x instead!

Since the original repo is no longer maintained by their two original authors (Alain and Quentin), we, the undersigned Alain and Quentin, gave consent to relicensing the original code under the MIT license.

Documentation

Since this current README is not taken when importing this module from the Godot asset library, all details are referred in the following document which explains you how to build this module, how to run demos, describe the architecture, details design and more ...

TL;DR: Compilation

To compile this project with the Python3 build script for Linux and Windows:

cd addons/gdcef
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
./build.py

This will generate artifacts in the build/ folder. Use this folder for your Godot project and add gdns and gdnlib files to refer libgdcef.so or libgdcef.dll.

TL;DR: I do not want to compile, I want CEF artifacts

Check for releases. Since tag 0.7.2 CEF artifacts are given for Linux and Windows for x86_64 architectures. Uncompress the tarball and move the folder inside your project. Do no forget to add gdns and gdnlib files in your project to tell Godot where to find shared lib. They are given in the demos folders.
