This project is an example of python module implemented in Rust programming language. The core of Chip8 emulator was implemented in Rust and exported to Python with PyO3 crate. The rest of the application was created in pure Python with help of pygame and pillow packages.
You can just run cargo, that will generate python native extension:
$ cargo build
On MacOS few additional linker arguments are required, so you may have to build as follows:
$ cargo rustc --release -- -C link-arg=-undefined -C link-arg=dynamic_lookup
In order to execute unit tests you have to disable default features, otherwise you may encounter wired linking errors:
$ cargo test --no-default-features
Please use maturin in order to build python wheels for you platform. Just run following command in project root directory:
$ maturin build
This should created a python package in taget/wheels subdirectory.
Please install chip8 python package and run chip8 binary. You have the pass the path to the ROM file as first command line argument:
$ chip8 <path_to_the_rom_file>
