/// This is a guided introduction to Bevy's "Entity Component System" (ECS)
/// All Bevy app logic is built using the ECS pattern, so definitely pay attention!
///
/// Why ECS?
/// * Data oriented: Functionality is driven by data
/// * Clean Architecture: Loose coupling of functionality / prevents deeply nested inheritance
/// * High Performance: Massively parallel and cache friendly
///
/// ECS Definitions:
///
/// Component: just a normal Rust data type. generally scoped to a single piece of functionality
///     Examples: position, velocity, health, color, name
///
/// Entity: a collection of components with a unique id
///     Examples: Entity1 { Name("Alice"), Position(0, 0) }, Entity2 { Name("Bill"), Position(10, 5) }

/// Resource: a shared global piece of data
///     Examples: asset_storage, events, system state
///
/// System: runs logic on entities, components, and resources
///     Examples: move_system, damage_system
///
/// Now that you know a little bit about ECS, lets look at some Bevy code!
/// We will now make a simple "game" to illustrate what Bevy's ECS looks like in practice.

//
// COMPONENTS: Pieces of functionality we add to entities. These are just normal Rust data types
//

// Our game will have a number of "players". Each player has a name that identifies them
struct Player {
    name: String,
}

// Each player also has a score. This component holds on to that score
struct Score {
    value: usize,
}

//
// RESOURCES: "Global" state accessible by systems. These are also just normal Rust data types!
//

// This resource holds information about the game:
#[derive(Default)]
struct GameState {
    current_round: usize,
    total_players: usize,
    winning_player: Option<String>,
}

// This resource provides rules for our "game".
struct GameRules {
    winning_score: usize,
    max_rounds: usize,
    max_players: usize,
}

//
// SYSTEMS: Logic that runs on entities, components, and resources. These generally run once each time the app updates.
//

// This is the simplest type of system. It just prints "This game is fun!" on each run:
fn print_message_system() {
    println!("This game is fun!");
}

// Systems can also read and modify resources. This system starts a new "round" on each update:
// NOTE: "mut" denotes that the resource is "mutable"
// Res<GameRules> is read-only. ResMut<GameState> can modify the resource
fn new_round_system(game_rules: Res<GameRules>, mut game_state: ResMut<GameState>) {
    game_state.current_round += 1;
    println!(
        "Begin round {} of {}",
        game_state.current_round, game_rules.max_rounds
    );
}

// This system updates the score for each entity with the "Player" and "Score" component.
fn score_system(mut query: Query<(&Player, &mut Score)>) {
    for (player, mut score) in query.iter_mut() {
        let scored_a_point = random::<bool>();
        if scored_a_point {
            score.value += 1;
            println!(
                "{} scored a point! Their score is: {}",
                player.name, score.value
            );
        } else {
            println!(

                player.name, score.value
            );
        }
    }

    // this game isn't very fun is it :)
}

// This system runs on all entities with the "Player" and "Score" components, but it also
// accesses the "GameRules" resource to determine if a player has won.

    game_rules: Res<GameRules>,

        }

// This system ends the game if we meet the right conditions. This fires an AppExit event, which tells our
// App to quit. Check out the "event.rs" example if you want to learn more about using events.

// This is a "startup" system that runs exactly once when the app starts up. Startup systems are generally used to create
// the initial "state" of our game. The only thing that distinguishes a "startup" system from a "normal" system is how it is registered:

// Sometimes systems need their own unique "local" state. Bevy's ECS provides Local<T> resources for this case.
// Local<T> resources are unique to their system and are automatically initialized on your behalf (if they don't already exist).
// If you have a system's id, you can also access local resources directly in the Resources collection using `Resources::get_local()`.
// In general you should only need this feature in the following cases:
//  1. You have multiple instances of the same system and they each need their own unique state
//  2. You already have a global version of a resource that you don't want to overwrite for your current system
//  3. You are too lazy to register the system's resource as a global resource

        // SYSTEM EXECUTION ORDER
        //
        // By default, all systems run in parallel. This is efficient, but sometimes order matters.
        // For example, we want our "game over" system to execute after all other systems to ensure we don't
        // accidentally run the game for an extra round.
        //
        // First, if a system writes a component or resource (ComMut / ResMut), it will force a synchronization.
        // Any systems that access the data type and were registered BEFORE the system will need to finish first.
        // Any systems that were registered _after_ the system will need to wait for it to finish. This is a great
        // default that makes everything "just work" as fast as possible without us needing to think about it ... provided
        // we don't care about execution order. If we do care, one option would be to use the rules above to force a synchronization
        // at the right time. But that is complicated and error prone!
        //
        // This is where "stages" come in. A "stage" is a group of systems that execute (in parallel). Stages are executed in order,
        // and the next stage won't start until all systems in the current stage have finished.
        // add_system(system) adds systems to the UPDATE stage by default
        // However we can manually specify the stage if we want to. The following is equivalent to add_system(score_system)
        .add_system_to_stage(stage::UPDATE, score_system.system())
        // We can also create new stages. Here is what our games stage order will look like:
        // "before_round": new_player_system, new_round_system
        // "update": print_message_system, score_system
        // "after_round": score_check_system, game_over_system
        .add_stage_before(stage::UPDATE, "before_round", SystemStage::parallel())
        .add_stage_after(stage::UPDATE, "after_round", SystemStage::parallel())
        .add_system_to_stage("before_round", new_round_system.system())
        .add_system_to_stage("before_round", new_player_system.system())
        .add_system_to_stage("after_round", score_check_system.system())
        .add_system_to_stage("after_round", game_over_system.system())
        // score_check_system will run before game_over_system because score_check_system modifies GameState and game_over_system
        // reads GameState. This works, but it's a bit confusing. In practice, it would be clearer to create a new stage that runs
        // before "after_round"
        // This call to run() starts the app we just built!
