How do you reflect a custom asset?

[juliohq]

In a custom resource you could do:

#[derive(Resource, Reflect, Default)]
#[reflect(Resource)]
MyCustomResource;

Though, it doesn't apply for assets:

#[derive(Asset, Reflect, Default)]
#[reflect(Asset) // not found in this scope
MyCustomAsset;

Is there something I'm missing or it isn't possible to reflect custom assets at all? I've been enjoying Bevy a lot so far!

You need to import bevy::asset::ReflectAsset.

We should probably add this to the prelude, though, it doesn't seem to have much usage since it also requires special registration using App::register_asset_reflect.

Yes it works, though I'm trying to make it possible to inspect my custom asset in bevy egui inspector but I'm still getting this error: Handle<Map> has no ReflectHandle type data, so it cannot be displayed. Is there anything I can do from my side or is that something the crate should do?

Edit: I fixed it by adding app.register_asset_reflect::<Map>().
