@ -6,4 +6,57 @@ Implementations of priority queues in Python using Rust bindings for speed.
|
|||
|
||||
I'm doing this to learn Rust, so don't judge me too hard lol.
|
||||
I've noted a few places where I'm unhappy with the implementation (mostly w.r.t. code duplication), but hopefully as I become more comfortable in Rust I can go back and fix those.
|
||||
Better to have a bad implementation now than a good implementation never is my view.

Better to have a bad implementation now than a good implementation never.

|

## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
The package provides 3 queues: `Pure`, `Paired`, and `Indexed`, all of which are min-queues.
|
||||
The `PureQueue` directly sorts the values it is given and returns them in order.
|
||||
The `PairedQueue` pairs an arbitrary Python object with a float priority and returns the objects in the order specified by their priorities.
|
||||
The `IndexedQueue` works the same as the `PairedQueue`, but allows arbitrary priority modification and object deletion at the cost of some runtime overhead and no support for duplicate objects (duplicate priorities are okay).
|
||||
|
||||
Typing is provided in `pyority_queue.pyi`, and should be picked up by your IDE.
|
||||
|
||||
## Development
|
||||
|
||||
Install venv and setup as usual
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
python -m venv venv
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
source venv/bin/activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Build rust code with
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
maturin develop
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that after you build the project for the first time you may have to restart the venv for it to pick up the new module
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
deactivate
|
||||
source venv/bin/activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Develop as usual, you should now be able to import the code through Python
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from pyority_queue import *
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
Run the rust test suite with
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cargo test
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run the python test suite with
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
pytest tests/*.py
|
||||
```
