pp_cfg {piecepackr}

Configuration list R6 object

Description

pp_cfg() and as_pp_cfg() create piecepack configuration list R6 objects. is_pp_cfg() returns TRUE if object is a piecepack configuration list R6 object. as.list() will convert it into a list.

Usage

pp_cfg(cfg = list())

is_pp_cfg(cfg)

as_pp_cfg(cfg = list())

Arguments

cfg

List of configuration options

Details

pp_cfg R6 class objects serve the following purposes:

• Customize the appearance of pieces drawn by grid.piece().

• Speed up the drawing of graphics through use of caching.

• Allow the setting and querying of information about the board game components that maybe of use to developers:

  • Number of suits

  • Number of ranks

  • Suit colors

  • Which types of components are included and/or properly supported

  • What would be a good color to use when adding annotations on top of these components.

  • Title, Description, Copyright, License, and Credit metadata

pp_cfg R6 Class Method Arguments

piece_side

A string with piece and side separated by a underscore e.g. "coin_face".

suit

Number of suit (starting from 1).

rank

Number of rank (starting from 1).

type

Which type of grob to return, either "normal", "picture", "raster", or "transformation".

scale

"scale" factor

alpha

"alpha" value

pp_cfg R6 Class Methods

get_grob()

Returns a grid “grob” for drawing the piece.

get_piece_opt()

Returns a list with info useful for drawing the piece.

get_suit_color()

Returns the suit colors.

get_width(), get_height(), get_depth()

Dimensions (of the bounding cube) of the piece in inches

pp_cfg R6 Class Fields and Active Bindings

annotation_color

Suggestion of a good color to annotate with

cache

Cache object which stores intermediate graphical calculations. Default is a memory-cache that does not prune. This can be replaced by another cache that implements the cache API used by the cachem package

cache_grob

Whether we should cache (2D) grobs

cache_grob_with_bleed_fn

Whether we should cache the grob with bleed functions

cache_piece_opt

Whether we should cache piece opt information

cache_op_fn

Whether we should cache the oblique projection functions

cache_obj_fn

Whether we should cache any 3D rendering functions

Defunct pp_cfg R6 Class attributes which have been removed

cache_shadow

Use cache_op_fn instead

i_unsuit

Instead add 1L to n_suits

get_pictureGrob()

Use get_grob(..., type = "picture") instead

get_shadow_fn

get_op_grob() returns complete oblique projection grob

Examples

 cfg <- pp_cfg(list(invert_colors=TRUE))
 as.list(cfg)
 is_pp_cfg(cfg)
 as_pp_cfg(list(suit_color="darkred,black,darkgreen,darkblue,grey"))
 cfg$get_suit_color(suit=3)

 cfg$has_matchsticks
 cfg$has_matchsticks <- TRUE
 cfg$has_matchsticks
 cfg$get_width("tile_back")
 cfg$get_height("die_face")
 cfg$get_depth("coin_face")
 # May take more than 5 seconds on CRAN servers
