My solution for: https://noopschallenge.com/challenges/hexbot

Getting Started

Install rust

The canonical way to install rust is to use rustup:

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

You need this on distros who do not have a supported rustc version in their packet sources. e.g. Debian Stable, Mint, openSUSE Leap, Ubuntu, ...

On distros which have the current rustc version in their packet sources, it can be used.

Distro	command
Arch Linux	sudo pacman -S rust
Debian Testing/Unstable	sudo apt install cargo
Fedora	sudo dnf install cargo
openSUSE Tumbleweed	sudo zypper install cargo

Get the source code

git clone https://github.com/rusty-snake/hexbot.git
cd hexbot

Hacking

Using the hexbot library in your own project.

Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
hexbot = { git = "https://github.com/rusty-snake/hexbot", tag = "v0.0.12" }
futures = "0.3"

src/main.rs:

use hexbot::{Count, Hexbot, Seed, WidthHeight};
use futures::executor::block_on;

fn main() {
    let hb = block_on(Hexbot::fetch(
        Count::no(),
        WidthHeight::no(),
        &Seed::no()
    )).expect("Fetching failed");
    println!("Hello from Hexbot: {}", hb);
}

For the next steps, see the documentation.
