# Lihzahrd
Terraria game world parser for Python
</div>
## Links
[![Available on PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/lihzahrd)](https://pypi.org/project/lihzahrd/)
[![Full documentation](https://img.shields.io/website?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgh.steffo.eu%2Flihzahrd%2Fhtml%2F&up_message=passing&down_message=failing&label=docs)](https://gh.steffo.eu/lihzahrd/html/)
## Installation
Lihzahrd can be installed from PyPI like any other public Python package.
Using [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/), that means:
```shell
uv add lihzahrd
```
## Usage
You can open a world file and get a `World` object by calling:
```python
import lihzahrd
world = lihzahrd.World.create_from_file("filename.wld")
```
It _will_ take a while to process: a small Terraria world contains more than 5 million tiles!
Once you have a `World` object, you can use all data present in the save file by accessing [its attributes](http://gh.steffo.eu/lihzahrd/html/world.html).
> [!Warning]
>
> Maliciously designed Terraria worlds can drain system resources, crash the interpreter, or possibly do other evil things!
>
> **Make sure you trust worlds before parsing them!**
## Documentation
The documentation is available [here](https://gh.steffo.eu/lihzahrd/html/).
If you know something that is missing in the documentation, please let me know [with an issue](https://github.com/Steffo99/lihzahrd/issues/new)!
## PyPy
`lihzahrd` is compatible with [PyPy](https://www.pypy.org), an alternative implementation on Python!
If you think that parsing a world takes too much time, you can use PyPy to reduce the required time by a factor of ~3!
### Benchmarks
Time to parse the same large world:
- CPython took 11.45 s.
- Pypy took 3.57 s!
### Building docs
You can build the docs by entering the `docs_source` folder and running `make html`, then committing the whole `docs` folder.
