Field Schemas

C++: phynexis::fields::{Scalar,Vec3,Vec4,Vec6,VecN,VecX}FieldSchema Python: phynexis.fields.{ScalarFieldSchema,Vec3FieldSchema,Vec4FieldSchema,Vec6FieldSchema,VecNFieldSchema,VecXFieldSchema} Header: src/fields/schema/*.hpp

Typed field schema classes that extend FieldSchema. Each defines a single-slot field with a specific component layout (scalar, fixed-vector, variable-length, or runtime-sized).

All constructors accept a base_name (the slot name prefix) and an optional ValueType (default Double).

Schema Types

Class	Components	Slot Name Pattern	Extra Parameters
ScalarFieldSchema	1	{base_name}	—
Vec3FieldSchema	3	{base_name}_x, {base_name}_y, {base_name}_z	—
Vec4FieldSchema	4	{base_name}_w, {base_name}_x, ...	—
Vec6FieldSchema	6	{base_name}_xx, {base_name}_yy, ...	—
VecNFieldSchema	N (fixed)	{base_name}_0 ... {base_name}_{N-1}	dimension: int (default 1)
VecXFieldSchema	runtime	{base_name} (single slot)	—

Usage

Create individual schemas and compose them into a multi-slot FieldSchema:

Example:

import phynexis
F = phynexis.fields

# Create typed field schemas
density_schema = F.ScalarFieldSchema("density")
velocity_schema = F.Vec3FieldSchema("velocity")
stress_schema = F.Vec6FieldSchema("stress")
data_schema = F.VecNFieldSchema("data", F.ValueType.Double, 7)
misc_schema = F.VecXFieldSchema("misc")

# Compose into a multi-slot schema
model = F.FieldSchema()
model.append(density_schema)
model.append(velocity_schema)
model.append(stress_schema)
model.append(data_schema)
model.append(misc_schema)

print("Model name:", model.name())
print("Slots:", model.num_slots())

Output:

Model name: default
Slots: 5

The composed schema can be used to create FieldMeta entries (via make_layout()) for building fields with FieldManager.
