Pixi 7 Loader baseURL equivalent in Assets init

[jasonsturges]

In previous versions of Pixi, I could set the base URL of a loader such as:

import { Loader } from "pixi.js";

const loader = new Loader();
loader.baseUrl = this.context.baseUrl ?? "/";

 

Does this translate to the following in Pixi 7?

import { Assets } from "pixi.js";

Assets.init({
  basePath: "https://domain/path/to/base",
});

 

This is not working for me, resolving to a relative url - seemingly not applied.

I've tried at the start of the Pixi App declaration, and inline before Sprite.from calls.

My solution loads a large number of assets throughout the lifetime of the app, and having the ability to specify this base url was convenient.  I must be missing something as to how this works now.
