// #![warn(clippy::all)] /*! # Rinecs rinecs is a fast and easy to use ECS library oriented to work mostly in conjuntion with rin and associated crates ## ECS ECS stands for Entity Component System, understanding what this three elements mean and how they are used in rinecs will help you understand how to use rinecs ### Entity An entity in ECS is just an id, a number identifying such entity. In your application an entity could be a particle in a particle system or a character in a video game ### Component A component in ECS is the data that the application uses, each component is associated to an entity. For example in a particle system there could be components for the Position, Velocity, Size and Color. Each particle would have these components but there could be other entities with only some of this components or others in the same world ### System A system in ECS is the functionality that reads and modifies the components in the world For example in our particle system a ParticleUpdateSystem could add the Velocity to the Position of every entity that have both a Position and a Velocity Another system could for example change the Color based on the Velocity for entities that have both Color and Velocity ## Differences with object oriented programming In object oriented programming each object contains it's own data, for example in the particle system we are using as example if we used OO each particle would have it's own position, velocity, size, something like: ``` struct Position{x: f32, y: f32} struct Velocity{x: f32, y: f32} struct Particle { position: Position, velocity: Velocity, size: f32, } ``` Now if we wanted to update this particle each frame to change it's postion based on it's velocity we would usually create an update method that updated the position by adding the velocity to it. Let's say that we also want to update the size relative to the velocity of the particle: ``` # struct Position{x: f32, y: f32} # struct Velocity{x: f32, y: f32} # struct Particle { # position: Position, # velocity: Velocity, # size: f32, # } impl Particle{ fn update(&mut self){ self.position.x += self.velocity.x; self.position.x += self.velocity.y; self.size = self.velocity.x + self.velocity.y; } } ``` Now we would create a vector of particles, update them all every frame and draw them afterwards probably through a draw method in the particle: ``` # struct Position{x: f32, y: f32} # struct Velocity{x: f32, y: f32} # struct Particle { # position: Position, # velocity: Velocity, # size: f32, # } # impl Particle{ # fn update(&mut self){} # fn draw(&self){} # } let mut particles: Vec<Particle> = vec![]; for particle in particles.iter_mut() { particle.update(); } for particle in particles.iter() { particle.draw(); } ``` If we now wanted to add a new type of object that updated it's position in the same way that the particle does but didn't change it's size, lets say a FixedSizeParticle, we would need to reimplement all of the update and even the draw logic. In ECS the data for each particle is not contained on a specific object which solves this problem: ``` #[macro_use] extern crate rinecs_derive; use rinecs::*; #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Position{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Velocity{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Size(pub f32); #[system(name = "update position")] #[needs("Velocity")] #[updates("Position")] fn update_position_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for (pos, vel) in entities.iter_for_mut::<(Write<Position>, Read<Velocity>)>(){ pos.x += vel.x; pos.y += vel.y; } } #[system(name = "update size")] #[needs("Velocity")] #[updates("Size")] fn update_size_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for (size, vel) in entities.iter_for_mut::<(Write<Size>, Read<Velocity>)>(){ size.0 = vel.x + vel.y; } } #[system(name = "update velocity")] #[updates("Velocity")] fn update_velocity_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for vel in entities.iter_for_mut::<Write<Velocity>>(){ vel.x *= 0.9999; vel.y *= 0.9999; } } #[system_thread_local(name = "update size")] #[needs("Position", "Size")] fn renderer(entities: EntitiesThreadLocal, resources: ResourcesThreadLocal){ for (pos, size) in entities.iter_for::<(Read<Position>, ReadOption<Size>)>(){ let size = size.unwrap_or(&Size(10.)); // draw circle at pos with radius size } } fn main(){ let mut world = World::new(); world.new_entity() .add(Position{x: 0., y: 0.}) .add(Velocity{x: 10., y: 10.}) .add(Size(0.)); world.new_entity() .add(Position{x: 0., y: 0.}) .add(Velocity{x: -10., y: -10.}) .add(Size(0.)); world.new_entity() .add(Position{x: 0., y: 0.}) .add(Velocity{x: 10., y: -10.}); world.add_system(update_velocity_system); world.add_system(update_position_system); world.add_system(update_size_system); world.add_system_thread_local(renderer); # let mut done = false; while !done { world.run_once(); # done = true; } } ``` Now the logic to update the position based on the velocity is independent from the particle, as well as all the other logic. We divide it in systems and each system knows what to do based on the data it uses. It doesn't know if the position belongs to a particle, a character or any other element in the system. Also now the updating of the postion and the size happen in parallel, in different threads, for free. Which can accelerate greatly the performance of the application if used properly. Apart from this, the memory layout in the ECS version is potentially much faster since all the positions, velocities and sizes are contiguous in memory. For something like the particle in our example it probably won't make any difference but for more complex obejcts with much more data the fact that each system only uses the data that it needs and that that data is contiguous in memory can make a big difference in terms of performance. Finally you might have noticed that the renderer in our example is added as a thread local system, this makes this system always run on the main thread which might be needed depending on the rendering technology you are using (for example with opengl). ## Operators In the previous example the different systems iterate over the data they use by using certain operators. For example the update_velocity system, only uses the `Write` operator with a `Velocity` parameter, this gives it access to all the velocity components in the world no matter to which entity they belong. In that example we've also used Read, which is similar to Write but gives read only access to the components and ReadOption that reads the component if that specific entity has it or returns None if not. Components can be grouped using tuples of types when specifying the operators. For the full documentation of all the operators in the system see [operators](operators) ## Filters In some cases it might be useful to treat a set of operators as an object. For example in the previous example we might be doing some operations in different systems. Instead of replicating the functionality we can use a Filter to group a set of components and implement methods over that object: ``` # #[macro_use] extern crate rinecs_derive; # use rinecs::*; # #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] # pub struct Position{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} # #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] # pub struct Velocity{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} # #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] # pub struct Size(pub f32); #[derive(Filter)] struct Particle<'a>{ position: Read<'a, Position>, size: ReadOption<'a, Size>, } impl<'a> Particle<'a>{ fn render(&self){ let size = self.size.unwrap_or(&Size(10.)); println!("{},{} {}", self.position.x, self.position.y, size.0); } } fn renderer(entities: EntitiesThreadLocal, resources: ResourcesThreadLocal){ for particle in entities.iter_for::<Particle>(){ particle.render() } } ``` As you can see in the previous example Filters can be used anywhere you would use an operator and equivalent to a tuple of all their members in terms of which entities they'll match ## Systems run order System's run order is determined by creating a dependencies graph from anotations in the system implementation. In the following example: ``` #[macro_use] extern crate rinecs_derive; use rinecs::*; #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Position{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Velocity{pub x: f32, pub y: f32} #[derive(Component, Debug, Clone, Copy)] pub struct Size(pub f32); #[system(name = "update position")] #[needs("Velocity")] #[updates("Position")] fn update_position_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for (pos, vel) in entities.iter_for_mut::<(Write<Position>, Read<Velocity>)>(){ pos.x += vel.x; pos.y += vel.y; } } #[system(name = "update size")] #[needs("Velocity")] #[updates("Size")] fn update_size_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for (size, vel) in entities.iter_for_mut::<(Write<Size>, Read<Velocity>)>(){ size.0 = vel.x + vel.y; } } #[system(name = "update velocity")] #[updates("Velocity")] fn update_velocity_system(mut entities: Entities, resources: Resources){ for vel in entities.iter_for_mut::<Write<Velocity>>(){ vel.x *= 0.9999; vel.y *= 0.9999; } } #[system_thread_local(name = "update size")] #[needs("Position", "Size")] fn renderer(entities: EntitiesThreadLocal, resources: ResourcesThreadLocal){ for (pos, size) in entities.iter_for::<(Read<Position>, ReadOption<Size>)>(){ let size = size.unwrap_or(&Size(10.)); // draw circle at pos with radius size } } ``` `update_position_system` specifies that it updates `Position` and needs `Velocity` and `update_velocity_system` updates velocity and doesn't need anything. That means that `update_velocity_system` will run before `update_position_system`. `update_size_system` needs `Velocity` and updates `Size` so it will run after `update_velocity_system` and in parallel with `update_position_system` since they don't have any dependency in common. Apart from `needs` and `updates` a system can also specify the following annotations: - `#[after("update_size_system")]` specifies that a system will run after `update_size_system`. - `#[before("update_size_system")]` specifies that a system will run before `update_size_system`. - `#[after_name("update size")] specifies that a system will run after the system with name "update size" as specified in it's `#[system(name="update size"]` anotation. - `#[before_name("update size")]` specifies that a system will run before the system with name "update size". - `#[read("Position")]` specifies that this system reads the Position component. This won't change the dependencies graph. It is only used to avoid running this systems in parallel with others that `updates` or `writes` to the `Position` components. - `#[writes("Position")]` specifies that this system writes the Position component. This won't change the dependencies graph. It is only used to avoid running this systems in parallel with others that `needs`, `reads`, `updates` or `writes` to the `Position` components. Although most times needs and updates are enough, sometimes a `needs` / `updates` graph can produce a cycle which is not allowed. In that case when running the world for the first time, the application will panic specifying the systems involved in that cycle. To solve it usually we can identify a system that doesn't need the very last information from the conflictive component and substitute a `needs` for a `reads`. Or perhaps identify a system which update is not really important for the dependency graph, and change an `updates` for a `writes`. The dependency graph can be debugged by printing it after adding all the systems using: ``` # let mut world = rinecs::World::new(); world.render_systems_dependency_graph("systems.dot"); ``` Which creates a vizgraph file with the systems dependency graph that can be viewed with any vizgraph application, or even plugins for several IDEs or text editors. */ #[cfg(feature="serde")] #[macro_use] extern crate serde_derive; #[allow(unused_imports)] #[macro_use] extern crate rinecs_derive; #[doc(hidden)] pub use rinecs_derive::*; use sync::*; // use storage::*; #[doc(hidden)] pub use storage::{ Storage, IntoIter, IntoIterMut, HierarchicalStorage, HierarchicalOneToNStorage, OneToNStorage, StorageRef, IntoOrderedIter, IntoOrderedIterMut, CreationSto, StorageRegistry, StorageEntitiesExt, IntoSendStorage, IntoStorages, }; #[doc(hidden)] pub use operators::{ Read, Write, Has, Not, HasOr, ReadNot, HasOption, ReadOption, WriteOption, ReadOr, Ref, ReadRef, URef, RefN, ReadAndParent, ReadAndParentRef, WriteAndParent, ReadHierarchical, WriteHierarchical, UnorderedData, UnorderedDataSend, OrderedData, OrderedDataSend, ChangedData, ChangedDataSend, ChangedOrderedData, ChangedOrderedDataSend, ChangesOrderedData, ChangesOrderedDataSend, ChangesData, ChangesDataSend, EntitiesData, FromComponent, TupleStorageEntities, Sto, DataAccesses, }; #[cfg(feature = "parallel_iter")] pub use operators::EntitiesDataParallel; pub use entity::{ Entity, Entities, EntitiesThreadLocal, EntitiesExt, EntityBuilder, EntitiesCreation, EntityStorages, EntityStoragesThreadLocal, EntityStoragesCreation, EntityStoragesExt }; #[doc(hidden)] pub use component::{Component, ComponentSend, ComponentThreadLocal, OneToNComponent, OneToNComponentSend, OneToNComponentThreadLocal, HierarchicalOneToNComponent, HierarchicalOneToNComponentSend, HierarchicalOneToNComponentThreadLocal, NToOneComponent, NToOneComponentSend, NToOneComponentThreadLocal, OneToOneComponent, OneToOneComponentSend, OneToOneComponentThreadLocal, Changes, ReferenceType }; pub use resource::{ Resources, ResourcesThreadLocal, ResourcesCreation, ResourcesExt, ResourcesThreadLocalExt, Res, ResMut }; pub use world::World; pub use systems::{ System, SystemThreadLocal, CreationSystem, SystemCondition, SystemOnce, SystemOnceThreadLocal, SystemConditionSend, SystemConditionThreadLocal, SystemConditionCreation, Builder as SystemBuilder, BuilderThreadLocal as SystemBuilderThreadLocal, BuilderCreation as SystemBuilderCreation, SystemId, Barrier, BuilderConditionsThreadLocal, BuilderElseThreadLocal, BuilderConditions, BuilderElse, BuilderConditionsCreation, BuilderElseCreation, BuilderConditionsCreationOnce, BuilderElseCreationOnce, }; #[cfg(feature="stats_events")] pub use utils::Stat; #[cfg(feature = "async")] pub use systems::CreationSystemAsync; #[doc(hidden)] pub use idtree::{NodeRef, NodeRefMut, NodeId}; #[doc(hidden)] pub use sync::{Ptr, PtrMut, NodePtr, NodePtrMut, ReadGuardRef, WriteGuardRef, CacheGuard}; pub use creation_context::{EntitiesCreationExt, ResourcesCreationExt, CreationContextExt}; #[doc(hidden)] pub use bitmask::{Bitmask, MaskType}; #[cfg(feature = "debug_parameters")] pub use debug::{SystemDebug, EntitiesDebug, DebugParameter}; #[cfg(all(unix, feature="dynamic_systems"))] pub use libloading::os::unix::Symbol as DynamicSymbol; #[cfg(all(windows, feature="dynamic_systems"))] pub use libloading::os::windows::Symbol as DynamicSymbol; #[cfg(feature="dynamic_systems")] pub use dynamic_system_loader::DynamicFunction; #[cfg(all(feature = "debug_locks", feature="parallel_systems", not(feature="lockfree")))] use mutcell_dbg as mutcell; pub use streaming_iterator::{self, StreamingIterator, StreamingIteratorMut}; pub use utils::{ UniqueEntities, UniqueEntity, IntoEntitiesIterator, UniqueEntitiesIterWrapper, IntoUniqueIterator, }; #[cfg(feature="parallel_iter")] pub use utils::IntoUniqueParallelIterator; #[cfg(not(feature = "debug_parameters"))] pub trait DebugParameter: std::fmt::Debug{} #[cfg(not(feature = "debug_parameters"))] impl<D: std::fmt::Debug> DebugParameter for D{} mod utils; mod sync; pub mod entity; pub mod component; pub mod storage; mod idtree; mod resource; mod world; mod systems; mod bitmask; mod creation_context; pub mod operators; #[cfg(all(feature="parallel_systems", feature="lockfree"))] mod mutcell; #[cfg(all(feature = "debug_locks", feature="parallel_systems", not(feature="lockfree")))] mod mutcell_dbg; #[cfg(feature = "debug_parameters")] mod debug; #[cfg(feature="dynamic_systems")] mod dynamic_system_loader; #[cfg(all(feature="lockfree", feature="debug_locks"))] compile_error!("lockfree and debug_locks features can't be activated simultaneously"); #[cfg(all(not(feature="parallel_systems"), feature="debug_locks"))] compile_error!("non parallel_systems and debug_locks features can't be activated simultaneously");
