= Lomic

Lomic is a Domain Specific Language (DSL) intended to be used for Pomic, a programming version of the game Nomic.

== Getting Started

=== Installing

Install the gem:

    $ gem install lomic

Or grab the latest code from github:

    $ git clone git://github.com/mindeavor/lomic.git

    $ cd lomic

    $ rake install

=== Quick Example

Here's a self-contained, offline example. For a networking example, check out listen_path.rb[http://github.com/mindeavor/lomic/blob/master/examples/listen_path.rb] in the examples[http://github.com/mindeavor/lomic/tree/master/examples/] folder

simple.rb:

  

  class Globals < Lomic

    var :didiwin => 'No...'

  end

  

  rule 101 do |g| # g refers to globals

    event "game:start" do

      puts '[Example: simple.rb]'

      g.didiwin = 'Yes!'

      set_next "game:test1"

    end

  

    event "game:test1" do

      puts "Did I win? #{g.didiwin}"

    end

  end

myParseFile.rb:

  

  require 'lomic'

  game_state = Lomic.parse('simple.rb', 'game:start')

== What does Lomic look like?

Lomic is designed to be expressive in declaring rules for the game Nomic:

    class Globals < Lomic

      var :players => []

      var :currentPlayer

    end

    

    class Player < Lomic

      resource :hp => 15 # resources have a max and min value

    end

    rule 101 do |g| # g refers to globals

      ### The game begins with 4 players.

      ### Each player is assigned a unique number.

      event "game:start" do

        Player.new_var :number => 0

        4.times do |i|

          p = Player.new

          p.number = i

          g.players.push(p)

        end

      end

    end

    

    rule 102 do |g|

      ### At the beginning of each player's turn,

      ### that player takes 3 damage

      event "turn:start" do

        currentPlayer.hp -= 3

      end

    end
