README
Game of Life with ncurses
This is an implementation of Conway's Game of Life written in Haskell, using ncurses for display.
Installation
Installing from Hackage requires a working cabal installation (or stack):
cabal update
cabal install game-of-life
game-of-life # Make sure ~/.cabal/bin is in your path
Running / Testing
First, install stack. curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh will work on most Unix systems, otherwise checkout https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/ . If you haven't run other Haskell projects on your system, the first time you try to build the project it may say you have to run stack setup; do so.
Note that you'll need the ncurses header files on your system. OS X should have these installed by default. Some Linux distros won't, running sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev (replace apt-get with package manager of choice) should fix any issues.
Running:
stack build && stack exec game-of-life
Testing:
stack build && stack test
Installing:
stack build && stack install .
Notes
- Currently doesn't handle resizing the shell during execution
- The screen doesn't update fast enough sometimes, causing tearing / lag / unresponsiveness. Seems to have more to do with ncurses / the shell than the speed of the simulation
- Some linux distros cause the program to crash (and mess up the user's shell since the ncurses cleanup commands don't run)
