//! # Spline interpolation made easy. //! //! This crate exposes splines for which each sections can be interpolated independently of each //! other – i.e. it’s possible to interpolate with a linear interpolator on one section and then //! switch to a cubic Hermite interpolator for the next section. //! //! Most of the crate consists of three types: //! //! - [`Key`], which represents the control points by which the spline must pass. //! - [`Interpolation`], the type of possible interpolation for each segment. //! - [`Spline`], a spline from which you can *sample* points by interpolation. //! //! When adding control points, you add new sections. Two control points define a section – i.e. //! it’s not possible to define a spline without at least two control points. Every time you add a //! new control point, a new section is created. Each section is assigned an interpolation mode that //! is picked from its lower control point. //! //! # Quickly create splines //! //! ``` //! use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline}; //! //! let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear); //! let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::default()); //! let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]); //! ``` //! //! You will notice that we used `Interpolation::Linear` for the first key. The first key `start`’s //! interpolation will be used for the whole segment defined by those two keys. The `end`’s //! interpolation won’t be used. You can in theory use any [`Interpolation`] you want for the last //! key. We use the default one because we don’t care. //! //! # Interpolate values //! //! The whole purpose of splines is to interpolate discrete values to yield continuous ones. This is //! usually done with the `Spline::sample` method. This method expects the interpolation parameter //! (often, this will be the time of your simulation) as argument and will yield an interpolated //! value. //! //! If you try to sample in out-of-bounds interpolation parameter, you’ll get no value. //! //! ``` //! # use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline}; //! # let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear); //! # let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::Linear); //! # let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]); //! assert_eq!(spline.sample(0.), Some(0.)); //! assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(1.), 10.); //! assert_eq!(spline.sample(1.1), None); //! ``` //! //! It’s possible that you want to get a value even if you’re out-of-bounds. This is especially //! important for simulations / animations. Feel free to use the `Spline::clamped_interpolation` for //! that purpose. //! //! ``` //! # use splines::{Interpolation, Key, Spline}; //! # let start = Key::new(0., 0., Interpolation::Linear); //! # let end = Key::new(1., 10., Interpolation::Linear); //! # let spline = Spline::from_vec(vec![start, end]); //! assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(-0.9), 0.); // clamped to the first key //! assert_eq!(spline.clamped_sample(1.1), 10.); // clamped to the last key //! ``` //! # Features and customization //! //! This crate was written with features baked in and hidden behind feature-gates. The idea is that //! the default configuration (i.e. you just add `"spline = …"` to your `Cargo.toml`) will always //! give you the minimal, core and raw concepts of what splines, keys / knots and interpolation //! modes are. However, you might want more. Instead of letting other people do the extra work to //! add implementations for very famous and useful traits – and do it in less efficient way, because //! they wouldn’t have access to the internals of this crate, it’s possible to enable features in an //! ad hoc way. //! //! This mechanism is not final and this is currently an experiment to see how people like it or //! not. It’s especially important to see how it copes with the documentation. //! //! So here’s a list of currently supported features and how to enable them: //! //! - **Serialization / deserialization.** //! + This feature implements both the `Serialize` and `Deserialize` traits from `serde` for all //! types exported by this crate. //! + Enable with the `"serialization"` feature. //! - **[cgmath](https://crates.io/crates/cgmath) implementors //! + Adds some usefull implementations of `Interpolate` for some cgmath types. //! + Enable with the `"impl-cgmath"` feature. //! - **Standard library / no stdandard library** //! + It’s possible to compile against the standard library or go on your own without it. //! + Compiling with the standard library is enabled by default. //! + Use `defaut-features = []` in your `Cargo.toml` to disable. //! + Enable explicitly with the `"std"` feataure. #![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std)] #![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), feature(alloc))] #![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), feature(core_intrinsics))] // on no_std, we also need the alloc crate for Vec #[cfg(not(feature = "std"))] extern crate alloc; #[cfg(feature = "impl-cgmath")] extern crate cgmath; #[cfg(feature = "serialization")] extern crate serde; #[cfg(feature = "serialization")] #[macro_use] extern crate serde_derive; #[cfg(feature = "impl-cgmath")] use cgmath::{InnerSpace, Quaternion, Vector2, Vector3, Vector4}; #[cfg(feature = "std")] use std::cmp::Ordering; #[cfg(feature = "std")] use std::f32::consts; #[cfg(feature = "std")] use std::ops::{Add, Div, Mul, Sub}; #[cfg(not(feature = "std"))] use alloc::vec::Vec; #[cfg(not(feature = "std"))] use core::cmp::Ordering; #[cfg(not(feature = "std"))] use core::f32::consts; #[cfg(not(feature = "std"))] use core::ops::{Add, Div, Mul, Sub}; /// A spline control point. /// /// This type associates a value at a given interpolation parameter value.
