## Installation

pip install rl-envs-forge
```

## Environments

### Labyrinth

Labyrinth is a classic maze-solving environment, where the goal is to navigate from a start point to a target. The maze layout is randomly generated based on a set of parametrizable arguments.

<!-- Use github paths for these figures so they will show up in the pypi page -->
📖 **Detailed Documentation**: [Click here to read more about the Labyrinth environment](https://github.com/mariusdgm/rl-envs-forge/blob/main/rl_envs_forge/envs/labyrinth/README.md)

#### Labyrinth rendered example

### KArmedBandit

KArmedBandit is a bandit environment, which returns a reward from a distribution associated with the chosen arm at each timestep. This implementation includes multiple distributions, and the possibility to shift the distribution parameters during sampling.

📖 **Detailed Documentation**: [Click here to read more about the KArmedBandit environment](https://github.com/mariusdgm/rl-envs-forge/blob/main/rl_envs_forge/envs/k_armed_bandit/README.md)

### GridWorld

GridWorld is a customizable grid-based environment for reinforcement learning, featuring adjustable grid size, start and terminal states, walls, and special transitions. Each action taken by the agent results in a transition within the grid, adhering to the defined rules and probabilities. 

📖 **Detailed Documentation**: [Click here to read more about the GridWorld environment](https://github.com/mariusdgm/rl-envs-forge/blob/main/rl_envs_forge/envs/grid_world/README.md)

#### GridWorld rendered example

### ACML

The Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning (ACML) environments are toy environments proposed in Reinforcement Learning: An Introduction* (2nd ed.).

📖 **Detailed Documentation**: [Click here to read more about the ACML environments](https://github.com/mariusdgm/rl-envs-forge/blob/main/rl_envs_forge/envs/acml/README.md)

### Inverted pendulum environments

Inverted pendulum environments where the objective is to apply forces to maintain the pendulum upright despite disturbances and the natural tendency to fall.

📖 **Detailed Documentation**: [Click here to read more about the inverted pendulum envs](https://github.com/mariusdgm/rl-envs-forge/blob/main/rl_envs_forge/envs/inverted_pendulum/README.md)

### NetworkGraph

NetworkGraph is an environment simulating the current opinion in a social network.

## Usage

Example code on setting up and testing the Labyrinth environment.

Note, this code snippet produced the render visible in section [Labyrinth](#labyrinth)

```python
from time import sleep
from rl_envs_forge.envs.labyrinth.labyrinth import Labyrinth

env = Labyrinth(20, 20, seed=0)

done = False
quit_event = False
while not done and not quit_event:
    action = env.action_space.sample()  
    observation, reward, done, truncated, info = env.step(action)
    quit_event, _ = env.render()
    sleep(0.1)
```

## Tests

Requirements: pytest and pytest-cov

Run the tests in the root folder with:

```bash
pytest tests
```
