[Unreleased]

[0.1.3-alpha] - 2021-07-10

This package was lacking real documentation, it is fixed in this version.

Added

Changed

  • Tests moved from leggedsnake/tests to tests/.

  • Examples moved from leggedsnake/examples/ to docs/source/examples/

  • I was testing my code on leggedsnake/examples/strider.py and that’s why it was a big mess. I cleaned up that all. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Fixed

  • A lot of outdated code in the leggedsnake/examples/strider.py

  • Changelog URL was broken in setup.cfg.

[0.1.2-alpha] - 2021-07-07

Changed

  • The step function execution speed has been increased by 25% when return_res is True! Small performance improvement when return_res is False.

  • The size argument of step function is now known as witdh.

  • We now require pylinkage>=0.4.0.

Fixed

  • Files in leggedsnake/examples/ were not included in the PyPi package.

  • The example was incompatible with pylinkage 0.4.0.

  • Test suite was unusable by tox.

  • Tests fixed.

  • Incompatible argument between PyGAD init_pop and built-in GA.

Security

  • Tests with tox.ini` now include Python 3.9 and Flake 8.

[0.1.1-alpha] - 2021-06-26

Added

  • The example file examples/strider.py is now shipped with the Python package.

  • leggedsnake/geneticoptimizer.py can now automatically switch to the built-in GA algorithm if PyGAD is not installed.

Changed

  • setup.cfg metadata

[0.1.0-alpha] - 2021-06-25

Added

  • Code vulnerabilities automatic checks

  • Example videos in examples/images/

Changed

  • Manny reforms in code style, to make the dynamic part naming conventions consistent with Pymunk.

  • Images in the README.md!

Fixed

  • You can now define linkages with an enormous number of legs. Systems with many should no longer break physics but your CPU instead :)

[0.0.3-alpha] - 2021-06-23

Added

  • Started walktrough demo in README.md

  • Automatic release to PyPi

Fixed

  • Pymunk version should be at least 6.0.0 in requirement files.

  • Some URLs typos in README.md

  • Versionning tests not executing (GitHub action)

[0.0.2-alpha] - 2021-06-22

Added

  • requirement.txt was absent due to .gitignore misconfiguration.

Changed

  • .gitignore now ignores .txt files only in the leggedsnake folder.

  • environment.yml more flexible (versions can be superior to the selected). pymunk>5.0.0 and pylinkage added.

  • leggedsnake/utility.py not having zipfile or xml modules error encapsulation.

Fixed

  • setup.cfg was not PyPi compatible.

    Removed mail (use GitHub!), we now explicitly say that README.md is markdown (PyPi is conservative)

[0.0.1-alpha] - 2021-06-22

Basic version, supporting Genetic Algorithm optimization, but with various problems.

Added

  • CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md to help community

  • LICENSE MIT License

  • MANIFEST.in to include more files

  • environment.yml with matplotlib, numpy, and pygad requirement

  • examples/strider.py a complete demo with Strider linkage

  • leggedsnake/__init__.py

  • leggedsnake/dynamiclinkage.py

  • leggedsnake/geneticoptimizer.py

  • leggedsnake/physicsengine.py

  • leggedsnake/show_evolution.py just a legacy package, no utility

  • leggedsnake/tests/test_utility.py untested test case

  • leggedsnake/utility.py contain some useful evalution function (step and stride) and a broken GeoGebra interface.

  • walker.py defines the Walker object.
