# Readme


This project is a fork of the [rubullet](https://github.com/neachdainn/rubullet) project. As the original repository has not been updated for over five years, further maintenance, updates, and customization requirements are being carried out here. The readme file of the original warehouse can be found below.

Compared to the 100 APIs implemented in the original library, we have additionally implemented all the APIs in pybullet 3.2.7. This enables you to smoothly migrate from pybullet to rsbullet, simply by changing the API names to snake_case. you can read API documentation in the [RSBULLET_API_REFERENCE.md](./RSBULLET_API_REFERENCE.md).

We have prepared a series of examples which can be referred to [examples](./rsbullet/examples).

# RuBullet


RuBullet is a Rust implementation of [PyBullet](https://pybullet.org/).
In other words, it uses the [Bullet3](https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3)
C API in order to expose a functionality that is similar to PyBullet.
Development is ongoing and functionality is currently limited.

## Status


Right now RuBullet should cover most of the basic use cases. It can:

* Create a PhysicsClient in Direct, Gui or other modes
* Load models from URDF, SDF, MuJoCo or Bullet files
* Create own models within the simulation
* Control robots in position, velocity or torque mode
* Calculate inverse dynamics, inverse kinematics, jacobians and mass matrices
* Render camera images
* Read information about links and joints
* Change dynamics of a body
* Create GUI sliders, buttons or put debugging text or lines in the simulation
* Get keyboard and mouse events
* Create and manage constraints
* Logging
* Saving states and loading states
* Set physics engine parameters
* Collision Detection Queries
* Deformables and Cloth

Things which are not implemented yet:

* Everything MultiDOF related
* Virtual Reality
* Plugins

The API is unstable and subject to change.

# Example


```rust
use std::{thread, time::Duration};

use anyhow::Result;
use nalgebra::{Isometry3, Vector3};
use rubullet::*;

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let mut physics_client = PhysicsClient::connect(Mode::Gui)?;

    physics_client.set_additional_search_path("../rubullet-sys/bullet3/libbullet3/data")?;
    physics_client.set_gravity(Vector3::new(0.0, 0.0, -10.0));

    let _plane_id = physics_client.load_urdf("plane.urdf", Default::default())?;

    let cube_start_position = Isometry3::translation(0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
    let box_id = physics_client.load_urdf(
        "r2d2.urdf",
        UrdfOptions {
            base_transform: cube_start_position,
            ..Default::default()
        },
    )?;

    for _ in 0..10000 {
        physics_client.step_simulation()?;
        thread::sleep(Duration::from_micros(4167));
    }

    let cube_transform = physics_client.get_base_transform(box_id)?;
    println!("{}", cube_transform);

    Ok(())
}
```

## Bug reports and Merge Requests


The current development happens as a part of marcbone's master thesis. Therefore, merge requests can not be accepted until
July 5, 2021. We are disabling merge requests until then which sadly also disables issues. If you find any bugs or have suggestions please write an email to
one of the maintainers.
