yaks

Latest Version Documentation License CI

yaks aims to be a minimalistic and performant framework for automatic multithreading of hecs via rayon.

The goals are, in no particular order:

  • safety
  • simplicity
  • performance
  • extensibility
  • tight engineering
  • minimal dependencies
  • effortless concurrency

Cargo features

  • parallel - enabled by default; can be disabled to force yaks to work on a single thread. Useful for writing the code once, and running it on platforms with or without threading.
  • resources-interop - when enabled, allows Executor::run() to also accept Resources struct from the resources crate in place of resources argument.

Example

A more elaborate and annotated example can be found here.

use hecs::{With, Without, World};
use yaks::{Executor, QueryMarker};

fn main() {
    let mut world = World::new();
    let mut entities = 0u32;
    world.spawn_batch((0..100u32).map(|index| {
        entities += 1;
        (index,)
    }));
    world.spawn_batch((0..100u32).map(|index| {
        entities += 1;
        (index, index as f32)
    }));
    let mut increment = 5usize;
    let mut average = 0f32;
    let mut executor = Executor::<(u32, usize, f32)>::builder()
        .system_with_handle(
            |context, (entities, average): (&u32, &mut f32), query: QueryMarker<&f32>| {
                *average = 0.0;
                for (_entity, float) in context.query(query).iter() {
                    *average += *float;
                }
                *average /= *entities as f32;
            },
            "average",
        )
        .system_with_handle(
            |context, increment: &usize, query: QueryMarker<&mut u32>| {
                for (_entity, unsigned) in context.query(query).iter() {
                    *unsigned += *increment as u32
                }
            },
            "increment",
        )
        .system_with_deps(system_with_two_queries, vec!["increment", "average"])
        .build();
    executor.run(&world, (&mut entities, &mut increment, &mut average));
}

fn system_with_two_queries(
    context: yaks::SystemContext,
    (entities, average): (&u32, &f32),
    (with_f32, without_f32): (
        QueryMarker<With<f32, &mut u32>>,
        QueryMarker<Without<f32, &mut u32>>,
    ),
) {
    yaks::batch(
        &mut context.query(with_f32),
        entities / 8,
        |_entity, unsigned| {
            *unsigned += average.round() as u32;
        },
    );
    yaks::batch(
        &mut context.query(without_f32),
        entities / 8,
        |_entity, unsigned| {
            *unsigned *= average.round() as u32;
        },
    );
}
