Make your mods immortal.

grug for Python

This repository provides Python bindings, a frontend, and a backend for grug. It passes all tests in grug-lang/grug-tests.

Install this package using pip install grug-lang, and run python -c "import grug" to check that it doesn't print an error.

A minimal example program is provided in the examples/minimal/ directory on GitHub:

import grug
import time

state = grug.init()

@state.game_fn
def print_string(string: str):
    print(string)

file = state.compile_grug_file("animals/labrador-Dog.grug")
dog1 = file.create_entity()
dog2 = file.create_entity()

while True:
    state.update()
    dog1.on_bark("woof")
    dog2.on_bark("arf")
    time.sleep(1)

on_bark(sound: string) {
    print_string(sound)

    # Print "arf" a second time
    if sound == "arf" {
        print_string(sound)
    }
}

Run it by cloning the repository, cd-ing into it, running cd examples/minimal, and finally running python example.py.

Dependencies

This project requires Python version 3.7 or newer. You can manage your Python versions using pyenv.

If you are on a Python version older than 3.11, you will need to install these:

pip install tomli importlib-metadata

If you want to run the tests, you will need to install pytest:

Tests

Testing grug-lang changes

Either uninstall grug-lang, if you had it installed:

pip uninstall grug-lang

Or set up a virtual environment:

rm -rf .venv
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

And then create an editable install of grug-lang:

pip install -e .

Building libtests.so

1. Clone the grug-tests repository next to this repository
2. Run git checkout development in the grug-tests repository.
3. Follow the instructions in the grug-tests repository for building libtests.so.

Running tests

In this grug-for-python repository, you can run all tests using this command:

pytest --grug-tests-path=../grug-tests -s -v

Pass --whitelisted-test=f32_too_big to only run the test called f32_too_big.

Alternatively, you can walk through the tests and set breakpoints by installing the Python Debugger VS Code extension. Hit F5 to run all tests. You can edit .vscode/launch.json to pass --whitelisted-test=f32_too_big.

Type checking

Run pyright in the terminal to type check the Python code. Pyright can be installed using sudo npm install -g pyright.
