Prepare handling of mimic constraints in Newton by eric-heiden · Pull Request #1523 · newton-physics/newton

Prepare ModelBuilder and URDF importer to handle mimic joint constraints in Newton through a new concept for mimic constraints.

Mimic Joint Constraints

Usage

Create mimic constraints using ModelBuilder.add_constraint_mimic():

builder = newton.ModelBuilder()

# Create joints
j1 = builder.add_joint_revolute(parent=-1, child=body1, key="leader")
j2 = builder.add_joint_revolute(parent=-1, child=body2, key="follower")

# Add mimic constraint: follower = 2.0 * leader + 0.5
builder.add_constraint_mimic(
    joint1=j2,           # Follower joint (constrained)
    joint2=j1,           # Leader joint (source)
    coef0=0.5,           # Offset
    coef1=2.0,           # Scale factor
    enabled=True,        # Optional, default True
    key="my_mimic",      # Optional name
)

model = builder.finalize()

The constraint enforces joint1 = coef1 * joint2 + coef0. Both scalar joints (revolute, prismatic) and multi-DOF joints are supported—the mimic behavior applies equally to all DOFs.

URDF files with <mimic> tags are automatically converted to mimic constraints during add_urdf().

Internal Storage

ModelBuilder stores mimic constraints in parallel lists during construction:

List	Type	Description
`constraint_mimic_joint1`	`list[int]`	Follower joint indices
`constraint_mimic_joint2`	`list[int]`	Leader joint indices
`constraint_mimic_coef0`	`list[float]`	Offsets
`constraint_mimic_coef1`	`list[float]`	Scale factors
`constraint_mimic_enabled`	`list[bool]`	Active flags
`constraint_mimic_key`	`list[str\|None]`	Optional names
`constraint_mimic_world`	`list[int]`	World indices (for multi-world)

Model (after finalize()) stores these as Warp arrays:

Attribute	Dtype	Shape
`constraint_mimic_joint1`	`wp.int32`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_joint2`	`wp.int32`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_coef0`	`wp.float32`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_coef1`	`wp.float32`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_enabled`	`wp.bool`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_world`	`wp.int32`	`[constraint_mimic_count]`
`constraint_mimic_key`	`list[str]`	(Python list, not Warp array)
`constraint_mimic_count`	`int`	Total constraint count

Custom attributes use Model.AttributeFrequency.CONSTRAINT_MIMIC for per-constraint data.

This is just a draft for the API and URDF parsing, it hasn't been hooked up to any solver yet.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- First-class mimic constraints: public API to create mimic joints with multiplier, offset, enable flag and optional key; preserved across merges/remapping and exported on finalized models with world/context tracking.
- URDF import: mimic joint definitions are detected and registered after joint creation, with warnings for missing targets.
Tests
- Added tests for URDF mimic import, default coefficients, skipped-child handling, and programmatic mimic constraint creation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds first-class mimic-constraint support: ModelBuilder can create and store mimic constraints, URDF import registers mimic definitions, merge/remap logic propagates mimic data across builders/worlds, and finalize exports per-constraint fields into Model with counts and attribute-frequency metadata.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Builder core `newton/_src/sim/builder.py`	Add per-mimic storage fields, `ModelBuilder.add_constraint_mimic(...)`, transform/merge/remap logic for mimic constraints, and include mimic data in finalize/export.
Model surface `newton/_src/sim/model.py`	Introduce `AttributeFrequency.CONSTRAINT_MIMIC`, shift `WORLD` index, add `constraint_mimic_*` arrays and `constraint_mimic_count` to Model public API and initialization.
URDF import `newton/_src/utils/import_urdf.py`	Rename parsed mimic params to `mimic_coef0/coef1`, build joint name→index map, create mimic constraints via `builder.add_constraint_mimic(...)`, warn & skip unknown references.
Tests `newton/tests/test_import_urdf.py`, `newton/tests/test_model.py`	Add URDF snippet and tests for mimic parsing, defaults, and programmatic creation (diff shows duplicated test insertions).

Pull request overview

This PR introduces first-class support for representing URDF mimic joint constraints in Newton’s ModelBuilder/Model, wiring URDF parsing and programmatic APIs to a new “mimic constraint” concept.

Changes:

Add constraint_mimic_* arrays and constraint_mimic_count to Model plus a new AttributeFrequency.CONSTRAINT_MIMIC, enabling per-constraint custom attributes.
Extend ModelBuilder with internal storage and APIs for mimic constraints (add_constraint_mimic), including multi-world/add-builder support and remapping in collapse_fixed_joints/finalize.
Update URDF import (parse_urdf) to parse <mimic> tags into mimic constraints and add unit tests verifying URDF and programmatic mimic-constraint creation and default semantics.

Reviewed changes

Copilot reviewed 4 out of 4 changed files in this pull request and generated 5 comments.

File	Description
`newton/tests/test_import_urdf.py`	Adds tests that verify URDF `<mimic>` tags and the new `ModelBuilder.add_constraint_mimic()` API populate `Model.constraint_mimic_*` correctly, including default multiplier/offset handling.
`newton/_src/utils/import_urdf.py`	Extends URDF joint parsing to record mimic metadata and, after joints are created, build `joint_name → index` mappings and instantiate corresponding mimic constraints on the builder, with warnings for invalid references.
`newton/_src/sim/model.py`	Introduces `AttributeFrequency.CONSTRAINT_MIMIC` and new `Model` fields (`constraint_mimic_joint1/2`, `constraint_mimic_multiplier/offset`, `constraint_mimic_enabled/key/world`, `constraint_mimic_count`) for storing mimic constraints and supporting custom attributes at this frequency.
`newton/_src/sim/builder.py`	Adds builder-side storage for mimic constraints, a public `add_constraint_mimic` method (including custom-attribute support), integrates mimic constraints with `add_builder`/multi-world logic, ensures joint index remapping in `collapse_fixed_joints`, and wires the data into `Model` during `finalize`, as well as documenting `"constraint_mimic"` in `CustomAttribute.references`.

In `@newton/_src/sim/builder.py`:
- Around line 770-777: The world-order validator is missing the newly tracked
array constraint_mimic_world in _validate_world_ordering(), so out-of-order or
invalid indices can pass; update _validate_world_ordering() to include
self.constraint_mimic_world in the list/tuple of world-tracked arrays (alongside
self.constraint_mimic_joint1, constraint_mimic_joint2,
constraint_mimic_multiplier, constraint_mimic_offset, constraint_mimic_enabled,
constraint_mimic_key) and ensure it is checked the same way as the other
constraint_mimic_* arrays for length and index ordering.

In `@newton/_src/sim/model.py`:
- Around line 107-109: The change inserts CONSTRAINT_MIMIC before WORLD and
shifts WORLD's IntEnum value, breaking numeric compatibility; restore stable
numeric values by keeping WORLD at 14 and adding CONSTRAINT_MIMIC as 15 (or
append CONSTRAINT_MIMIC after WORLD) so AttributeFrequency.WORLD remains 14,
update any references (e.g., Model.constraint_mimic_count) as needed, and add a
short comment/docstring noting the breaking change if you choose the alternative
ordering.

In `@newton/_src/utils/import_urdf.py`:
- Around line 659-691: The mapping creation for joint_name_to_idx is misaligned
because joint_indices[1:] includes -1 entries for skipped joints; change the
logic in the block that builds joint_name_to_idx to only include joints that
were actually created by iterating over sorted_joints with their corresponding
joint_indices entry (skip entries where joint_indices for that joint is -1 or
None) so the mapping keys are built from joint["name"] and values from the
matching joint_index; this ensures subsequent mimic handling (checks of
joint["mimic_joint"], follower_idx/leader_idx and builder.add_constraint_mimic)
uses the correct indices and avoids wrong attachments when child == -1.

validate that joint1 and joint2 are valid indices within the model (e.g. 0 <=

743-770: Mimic constraint creation loop is well-guarded.

The loop properly handles:

Unknown leader joints (Line 747–752 warns and skips)

Skipped follower joints (Line 757–762 warns and skips)

One minor observation: at Line 755, leader_idx is fetched via .get() which could return None, but this path is unreachable because Line 747 already verified mimic_target_name in joint_name_to_idx. Consider using direct indexing (joint_name_to_idx[mimic_target_name]) to make the intent clearer, but this is not a functional issue.
Tiny clarity improvement
-            leader_idx = joint_name_to_idx.get(mimic_target_name)
+            leader_idx = joint_name_to_idx[mimic_target_name]

574-588: Naming inconsistency: constraint_mimic_* vs existing equality_constraint_*.

Existing constraint attributes use the pattern equality_constraint_* (type-first), while the new attributes use constraint_mimic_* (category-first). This inconsistency may cause confusion when discovering attributes by prefix.

Consider aligning to one convention — either mimic_constraint_* (matching equality_constraint_*) or renaming all to constraint_* in a future cleanup.
