Shipyard ⚓

Shipyard is an Entity Component System focused on usability and speed.

Basic Example

use shipyard::{Component, IntoIter, View, ViewMut, World};

#[derive(Component)]
struct Health(u32);
#[derive(Component)]
struct Position {
    x: f32,
    y: f32,
}

fn in_acid(positions: View<Position>, mut healths: ViewMut<Health>) {
    for (_, health) in (&positions, &mut healths)
        .iter()
        .filter(|(pos, _)| is_in_acid(pos))
    {
        health.0 -= 1;
    }
}

fn is_in_acid(_: &Position) -> bool {
    // it's wet season
    true
}

fn main() {
    let mut world = World::new();

    world.add_entity((Position { x: 0.0, y: 0.0 }, Health(1000)));

    world.run(in_acid);
}

Origin of the name

Assembly lines take input, process it at each step, and output a result. You can have multiple lines working in parallel as long as they don't bother each other.

Shipyards such as the Venetian Arsenal are some of the oldest examples of successful, large-scale, industrial assembly lines. So successful that it could output a fully-finished ship every day.

Shipyard is a project you can use to build your own highly-parallel software processes.

Motivation

I initially wanted to make an ECS to learn how it works. After a failed attempt and some research, I started working on Shipyard.

Specs was already well established as the go-to Rust ECS but I thought I could do better and went with EnTT's core data-structure (SparseSet) and grouping model. A very flexible combo.

Cargo Features

parallel (default) — enables workload threading and add parallel iterators
proc (default) — re-exports macros from shipyard_proc, mainly to derive Component
serde1 — adds (de)serialization support with serde
std (default) — lets Shipyard use the standard library
thread_local — adds methods and types required to work with !Send and !Sync components
tracing — reports workload and system execution
