Problems loading GLTF on github pages

Questions

Hello!

I’ve just pushed a website that was working perfectly locally to github, but I get an error when I want to host it on github pages.

GLTFLoader.js:154 SyntaxError: Unexpected token v in JSON at position 0
at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)
at GLTFLoader.parse (GLTFLoader.js:281)
at Object.onLoad (GLTFLoader.js:174)
at XMLHttpRequest.<anonymous> (three.module.js:36358)

As far as I understand this is because my GLTF object is not responding with a json. But this means that I won’t be able to host my site on github pages because I can’t host a gltf file? Or is there a possible solution?

This is the response I see in the console from my gltf object.

Hope there is a solution! Thank you in advance

You’re very likely correct. Could you share the code you use to load the model (the GLTFLoader part) ?

(Also, this may help.)

If you’re using Git LFS then you won’t be able to serve a model to github pages. That file content is the hash that LFS uses to download the file on git pull.

Thank you! After reading the thread you share, I’ve tried the url with the commit number, and now the error is different.

Mi code after changing the url:

const loader = new GLTFLoader().setPath( ‘raw.githubusercontent.com/ydzu/projectwave3/5cf1eff41f93d63ac82bb3e644bb4f5ca43067ad/’ );
loader.load( ‘uni5.gltf’, function (obj) {

                objectSheep = obj;		
				objectSheep.scene.traverse( ( child ) => {
					if ( child.isMesh ) {
						child.material = materialSheep; 
						child.material.side = THREE.DoubleSide;}				
				} );

                scene.add( objectSheep.scene );

            } );

The console now:

And my code before was:

const loader = new GLTFLoader().setPath( 'models/' );
            loader.load( 'uni5.gltf', function (obj) {

This is the repo:

Thanks!

Opss yes, that’s exactly what I’m using.
I found that as the. only alternative to upload the model.
Don’t know if there is another.

Thanks!
