Hexlab is a Rust library for generating and manipulating hexagonal mazes.

Features

• Create hexagonal mazes of configurable size
• Customizable maze properties (radius, start position, seed)
• Efficient bit-flag representation of walls for optimized memory usage
• Multiple maze generation algorithms (WIP)
• Maze builder pattern for easy and flexible maze creation

Installation

Add hexlab as a dependency:

cargo add hexlab

Getting Started

use hexlab::prelude::*;

fn main() {
    // Create a new maze with radius 5
    let maze = MazeBuilder::new()
        .with_radius(5)
        .build()
        .expect("Failed to create maze");
    println!("Maze size: {}", maze.len());
}

Usage

use hexlab::prelude::*;

// Create a new maze
let maze = MazeBuilder::new()
    .with_radius(5)
    .build()
    .expect("Failed to create maze");

// Get a specific tile
let tile = maze.get_tile(&Hex::new(1, -1)).unwrap();

// Check if a wall exists
let has_wall = tile.walls().contains(EdgeDirection::FLAT_NORTH);

Hexlab relies on the excellent hexx library for handling hexagonal grid mathematics, coordinates, and related operations. We're grateful for the robust foundation it provides for working with hexagonal grids.
