I'm trying to convert a batch of files to glb using blender with the script bellow. That i modified from How to batch convert between file formats?

But i'm getting the error

'Context' object has no attribute 'active_object'

If I change the output to obj it works with no problem

I'm using blender v2.81a

CONVERT_DIR = "my/dir"

import os


def file_iter(path, ext):
    for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(path):
        for filename in filenames:
            ext = os.path.splitext(filename)[1]
            if ext.lower().endswith(ext):
                yield os.path.join(dirpath, filename)


import bpy


def reset_blend():
    bpy.ops.wm.read_factory_settings(use_empty=True)


def convert_recursive(base_path):
    for filepath_src in file_iter(base_path, ".fbx"):
        filepath_dst = os.path.splitext(filepath_src)[0] + ".glb"


    print("Converting %r -> %r" % (filepath_src, filepath_dst))

    reset_blend()

    bpy.ops.import_scene.fbx(filepath=filepath_src)

    bpy.ops.export_scene.gltf(export_format="GLB",filepath=filepath_dst)





if name == "main":
    convert_recursive(CONVERT_DIR)

But it fails with the error bellow

Traceback (most recent call last):

Creating a fake active object attribute on the context and passing it to the operator should work. Try this:

CONVERT_DIR = "my/dir"

import os


def file_iter(path, ext):
    for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(path):
        for filename in filenames:
            ext = os.path.splitext(filename)[1]
            if ext.lower().endswith(ext):
                yield os.path.join(dirpath, filename)


import bpy


def reset_blend():
    bpy.ops.wm.read_factory_settings(use_empty=True)


def convert_recursive(base_path):
    for filepath_src in file_iter(base_path, ".fbx"):
        filepath_dst = os.path.splitext(filepath_src)[0] + ".glb"


    print(&quot;Converting %r -&gt; %r&quot; % (filepath_src, filepath_dst))

    reset_blend()

    bpy.ops.import_scene.fbx(filepath=filepath_src)

    # create a copy of the context
    ctx = bpy.context.copy()

    # because the active_object attribute isn't created until the user interacts
    # with the scene we create one here but we don't need to set it to anything
    ctx['active_object'] = None

    # pass our context copy with active object attribute to the operator
    bpy.ops.export_scene.gltf(ctx, export_format=&quot;GLB&quot;,filepath=filepath_dst)





if name == "main":
    convert_recursive(CONVERT_DIR)
