Physical simulation description language built with MPS, allowing to describe objects and forces applied to them.
Physics is based on iets3.opensource, an open source implementation of generic language features (expressions, types, functions...) independent of any target language.
There is no specific software requirements to use this project (MPS aside).
However, having the following software may make things smoother as for the build script:
- Java 11 : used for compilation within gradle scripts (it needs JAVA_HOME environement variable to be set)
- Git : cloning this repository (if you no not downloading it as a zip)
- MPS generic distribution : used for building the standalone ide (the build script can also download it)
Note: Java 11 is required because MPS use it, using another version generated artifacts do not work. A Java 11 distribution is sometimes packaged with MPS, so specifying mpsDir
can avoid extra download.
-
Download or clone the project
git clone https://github.com/vaclav/Physics cd ./Physics
-
Fetch dependencies
./gradlew resolveArtifacts generateLibrariesXml -PmpsDir="<path to mps>"
For windows: use
./gradlew.bat
-
Open the project and rebuild (restart if you opened it before the end of the above commands)
-
Enjoy !
