SuperRender - blockchain based permission less, decentralized rendering platform. (iExec Developer Rewards Program)

[blairmaclennan]

iExec Developer Rewards & Grants Program

Project name: SuperRender

Topic: SuperRender is a blockchain based permission less, decentralized rendering platform. We are currently building our Minimum Viable Product using IExec computing technology.

SuperRender aims to provide creators a simple, intuitive and token economy based rendering environment, to start with Blender as the rendering engine. Blender is a popular 3D modeling software."

We aim to empower creators to build innovative worlds in metaverse with vertic chain from render to NFT minting and NFTdistribution.

SuperRender is powered by IExec decentralized computing We have based our platform on IExec.

IExec is the first decentralized and marketplace for containerized applications. iExec is the computing infrastructure. Users can render their Blender files usingSuperRender.

iExec technology Innovation: Off-chain computing, using rendering logic.

Confidential Computing for executing a computational task on confidential patient data (Chest X-ray images)

Expected deliverable: Interface: Users will be able to create their metaverse virtual worlds and run those on iExec Tech Integration: Docker-based deployment and runtime execution of our metaverse

Release date: November

Hi @blairmaclennan I would like to contribute to the project. I'm a junior DevOps engineer who can help to setup CI/CD with GitlabCI/Github Actions with Docker and Kubernetes on AWS (EKS).

Still building the user flow concept, considering how a Blender render workflow could work.

Hi, I have completed the assigned work. SuperRender app is ready. It allows users to render blender files on IExec. Demo video is here https://youtu.be/rRsAzOF24u4 . Repo is here https://github.com/georgesmith9914/superrender (private repo) . Report was already shared on email.

App screeshots are here -

Steps to install, deploy and run are mentioned in repo as well as here -

Steps to execute it on docker and deploy to IExec:

Place a test blender file named blendfile.blend in /tmp/iexec_in in local VM chmod +x script.sh docker build . --tag blender-test-app docker run --rm -v /tmp/iexec_in:/iexec_in -v /tmp/iexec_out:/iexec_out -e IEXEC_IN=/iexec_in -e IEXEC_OUT=/iexec_out -e IEXEC_INPUT_FILE_NAME_1=Blendfile7.blend -e IEXEC_INPUT_FILES_NUMBER=1 blender-test-app args1 arg2 arg3 Check output in /tmp/iexec_out folder docker tag blender-test-app georgesmith9914/blender-render:1.0.9 docker push georgesmith9914/blender-render:1.0.9 Note down checksum value from: docker pull georgesmith9914/blender-render:1.0.9 | grep "Digest: sha256:" | sed 's/.*sha256:/0x/' " nano iexec.json and change value of checksum from above and app multiaddr to "docker.io/georgesmith9914/blender-render:1.0.9" iexec app deploy --chain viviani iexec app publish --chain viviani Note down app 0x address Steps to prepare your Metamask wallet:

Create a wallet using IExec SDK command line Get some nRLC to your wallet Import this wallet into Metamask using private key Add Viviani chain and its RPC to Metamask Choose Viviani chain on Metamask Step to run Dapp:

npm install Update local scret.json npm run dev Open browser on port http://localhost:3000 Upload a blender file, enter frame number and start rendering Check status of task by using URL https://v6.core.prod-main-pool.viviani.iex.ec/tasks/ e.g., https://v6.core.prod-main-pool.viviani.iex.ec/tasks/0x71da3e95a2fe5a9c2ae8cb133b9cf658a68dced4b106f34523313ad46035c044
