Snippets are reusable Serpens node configurations — self-contained node groups or logic blocks — that can be imported directly into any Serpens project. Rather than building common patterns from scratch every time, community members export their node setups from Serpens as a .json or .zip file and share them on the marketplace. Other users can then download and import the snippet to immediately reuse the same node logic in their own addons. Snippets often come with an optional companion .blend file that demonstrates the snippet in action.

​
Entry Schema

Every snippet entry in snippets.json contains the following fields:
​
title
string
required
The display name of the snippet shown in the marketplace listing.
​
description
string
required
A plain-text description of what the snippet does or which node pattern it implements.
​
price
string
required
The price of the snippet as a plain string. The vast majority of community snippets are "Free".
​
url
string
required
The download URL for the snippet file. This is typically a cdn.discordapp.com link to a .json or .zip file, but may also be an external URL such as a Gumroad page.
​
blend_url
string
Optional URL pointing to a companion .blend example file. Empty string when no example file is provided.
​
author
string
required
The display name of the snippet’s author. Some snippets were created collaboratively and list multiple names separated by a slash (e.g. "vranimeted/blanchsb").
​
user
integer
required
The Discord user ID (snowflake) of the community member who submitted the snippet. Used by the bot to associate the entry with its owner for future updates and removals.
​
serpens_version
integer
Optional. Indicates the major Serpens version the snippet was built for — 2 or 3. Entries that predate the version tagging system may omit this field.

Example Entry

Below is a real entry from snippets.json — the Addon Detection Snippet by vranimeted and blanchsb: 
{
    "title": "Addon Detection Snippet",
    "description": "Quickly see if the addon required for your button/feature to work is enabled by removing the embross from the button if it's disabled.",
    "price": "Free",
    "url": "https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/785132940278366260/897685799036915732/Addon_Detection_Snippet.json",
    "blend_url": "https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/785132940278366260/897686032252821504/Snippet_-_Addon_Detection.blend",
    "author": "vranimeted/blanchsb",
    "user": 272275672947490817
}

​
File Formats

Snippets can be distributed in two file formats:
  • .json — A raw Serpens node export. This is the most common format and can be imported directly into a Serpens project without extraction.
  • .zip — A zip archive that may contain multiple related node files, assets, or supporting scripts. The CRZ Snippets pack and Database snippet are examples of this format.
When uploading through the Discord bot, only .json and .zip files are accepted for snippets. The bot will reject any other file type.
