README

GamesmanNova

Nova is a research project for generating datasets of sequential games with finite state representations, which includes games Tic-Tac-Toe and Connect4. As a system, it is the first step of data pipelines that provide analyses of these games' state spaces.

Installation

Before doing anything, you will want to install the Rust compiler and toolchain. GamesmanNova is on crates.io, so to get the nova executable, you can then run:

cargo install gamesman-nova

Otherwise, if you would like to build Nova from source, you can also:

  1. Clone this repository to your preferred location.
git clone https://github.com/GamesCrafters/GamesmanNova.git location
  1. Go to your installation (cd location), and install the executable:
cargo install --path .

This will add the nova executable to your list of cargo binaries.

Usage

Once you have the nova executable in a directory that is part of your PATH, you can run:

nova --help

This will display a list of sub-commands and their descriptions. Nova uses clap for Unix-like command-line argument parsing.

Development

As a research project, the primary users of Nova will be people who intend to build on it as a platform.

For now, we make our best attempt at providing a good experience when building from this repository via rustdocs and a reasonable architecture. The project adheres to semantic versioning per Rust's standards, and will remain unstable for the foreseeable future.
