Gloss Hecs

A small wrapper around hecs with convenience functions for easy use with gloss.

lib.rs:

A handy ECS

hecs provides a high-performance, minimalist entity-component-system (ECS) world. It is a library, not a framework. In place of an explicit "System" abstraction, a World's entities are easily queried from regular code. Organize your application however you like!

In order of importance, hecs pursues:

• fast traversals
• a simple interface
• a small dependency closure
• exclusion of externally-implementable functionality

let mut world = World::new();
// Nearly any type can be used as a component with zero boilerplate
let a = world.spawn((123, true, "abc"));
let b = world.spawn((42, false));
// Systems can be simple for loops
for (id, (mut number, &flag)) in world.query_mut::<(&mut i32, &bool)>() {
    if flag {
        *number *= 2;
    }
}
// Random access is simple and safe
assert_eq!(*world.get::<&i32>(a).unwrap(), 246);
assert_eq!(*world.get::<&i32>(b).unwrap(), 42);
