### Implement pybind11 for bindings
|
|
|
|
+ Difficulty Level: 5/5 (Hard)
|
|
+ Skill: Advanced C++ with metaprogramming; Python
|
|
+ Project Length: Medium (175 hours)

|
pocketpy has provided a low-level API for creating bindings. It is fast, lightweight and easy to debug.
|
|
However, it still requires a lot of boilerplate code to create bindings for complex C++ classes.
|
|
The community has long expected a high-level API for creating bindings.
|
|
|
|
[pybind11](https://github.com/pybind/pybind11)
|
|
is the most popular C++ library for creating Python bindings for CPython. A bunch of Python libraries are using it. pybind11 adopts a template metaprogramming approach to automatically generate bindings for C++ classes.
|
|
|
|
Our goal is to introduce a pybind11 compatible solution to pocketpy as an alternative way to create bindings
|
|
for functions and classes.
|
|
You can use C\+\+17 features to implement it, instead of C++11 used in pybind11.

### Add `numpy` module
|

|
Though pocketpy is designed for game scripting,
|
|
some people are using it for scientific computing.
|
|
It would be nice to have a `numpy` module in pocketpy.
|
|
|
|
We know `numpy` is a huge project.
|
|
Our goal is to implement a most commonly used subset of `numpy` in pocketpy.
|
|
You can mix C++ and Python code to simplify the overall workloads.
