A foundation for Minesweeper implementations in Rust.
The purpose of such a crate is to have Minesweeper implementations depend on a common crate, i.e. for them to share the basic code related to managing a Minesweeper session and only bother writing the code for the UI, sound effects, input and such. Such implementations can be seen as frontends to this library.
std
— enable a dependency on the hosted standard library (enabled by default)
Without this feature, the crate only depends on core
and alloc
(meaning that usage in an environment without even a memory allocator is impossible), allowing it to run in a freestanding environment, allowing one to implement Minesweeper on a microcontroller, meaning Arduino Minesweeper, ESP32 Minesweeper, OSDev Minesweeper... you name it.
generation
— enable random generation (enabled by default)
Enables the dependency on rand
, used for generating random fields. Disable to remove said dependency if you'd like to use your own random field generator.
track_caller
— use track_caller
attributes
Places the track_caller
attribute on indexing operators and other panicking methods, improving panic messages. Requires a nightly compiler as of Rust 1.43.0.
