## Requirements

You will need rustc and cargo to compile this repo. I am using version 1.77.2 [download link](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install)

The target platform is x86_64, Windows and Linux.

_A newer compiler and other platforms may work, but I cannot give guarantees._

Your hardware must support [Vulkan](https://www.vulkan.org/). Most modern GPUs work.

You also require an internet connection, to download dependencies from [crates.io](https://crates.io/). You can [vendor](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-vendor.html) crates for offline use or download an archived repo from [my website](https://www.rismosch.com/archive). Note that I make these archives sporadically, meaning they may not be up to date.


## Setup

This engine relies on the [Vulkan SDK](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/). ris_engine requires prebuild binaries from it.

For information on how to get and install the Vulkan SDK, click to reveal the instructions for the given platform.

### Windows

<details>
  <summary>click to reveal</summary>

  Download and run the SDK Installer from https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows

  When running the SDK Installer, make sure that you select the SDL2 libraries and headers.

  To confirm if the Vulkan SDK was installed properly, check the environment variables `$VULKAN_SDK` and `$VK_SDK_PATH`. They should be pointing to the directory where you installed the SDK into. You can also confirm if your hardware supports Vulkan, by running `$VULKAN_SDK/Bin/vkcube.exe`. If you see a spinning cube with the LunarG logo, everything is working as intended.

### Arch Linux

<details>
  <summary>click to reveal</summary>
  
  #### 1. Install [SDL2](https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/sdl2/)
  
  ```bash
  sudo pacman -S sdl2
  ```
  
  #### 2. Install [shaderc](https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/shaderc/)
  
  ```bash
  sudo pacman -S shaderc
  ```
  
  #### 3. Install [Vulkan](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Vulkan)
  
  Depending on your graphics card, you need to install a different package. Follow the instructions in the link below:
  
  https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Vulkan#Installation
</details>

## Building

Assuming your environment is set up properly, you can now compile and run the engine with:

```bash
cargo run
```

Alternatively, you can build a release-ready package, by running the command below. Note that this builds with all optimizations enabled, which may take longer than just using `cargo run`.

```bash
cargo run -p cli build
```

Passing the `-r` flag is discouraged, because asset discovery works differently in release builds. If you want to pass the `-r` flag to cargo, you must import and compile the assets manually. Infos and how to do that can be found in [`./assets/README.md`](./assets/README.md).

## Testing

All tests are found under `./tests/` and can be run with:

```bash
cargo test
```

Alternatively, to run **much** more extensive tests, you can run the command below. Note that this may take several minutes.

```bash
cargo run -p cli pipeline all
```

Using the command above, some tests run [miri](https://github.com/rust-lang/miri). If miri is not installed, then the according tests will fail.

## Cli

For more info about the command `cargo run -p cli`, see [`./cli/README.md`](./cli/README.md).
