# Description

The if-else-continue logic inside the event manager has become scary.
This MR simplifies it and keeps the term call local to the if
statements. I hope this should help with the readability.

those tasks for Windows OS as well.

# Description

Previously, the returned config object for `parse_env_cfg` mentioned the
dictionary. However, this is hardly used or supported in our workflows
code. This MR simplifies the return type to only be an instance of
manager-based or direct environment configuration classes. Doing so,
also cleans the code a bit by removing the need of explicit
type-hinting.

# Description

Various randomization and procedural generation operations happen at
initialization. However, as noted in one of the issues, the seed setting
happens after all these operations are performed. This means that the
creation of the environment is not completely deterministic. This MR
resolves this issue by adding a `seed` configuration to the environment.

Fixes #904

# Description

Previously, the configclass instance did not properly parse
classmethods. For instance, the following would fail:

```python
from __future__ import annotations

"""Launch Isaac Sim Simulator first."""

from omni.isaac.lab.app import AppLauncher

# launch omniverse app
app_launcher = AppLauncher(headless=True)

"""Rest everything follows."""

from omni.isaac.lab.utils.configclass import configclass


@configclass
class DummyClass:

    a: int = 5

    def instance_method(self):
        print("Value of a: ", self.a)

    @classmethod
    def class_method(cls, value: int) -> DummyClass:
        return cls(a=value)


cfg = DummyClass()

# check all methods are callable
cfg.instance_method()
new_cfg1 = cfg.class_method(20)

# create the same config instance using class method
new_cfg2 = DummyClass.class_method(20)
```

This MR fixes the checks to make sure class-methods remain bound to the
class and do not become instance variables.

Sets the "render_fps" metadata used by the gym.wrappers.RecordVideo such
that, if it is used, the produced video will have the correct episode
length (i.e., the environment in the video will play at the correct
speed).

The correct render_fps should be equal to `1 / (self.cfg.decimation *
self.cfg.sim.dt)` which I integrated to the init function of the
ManagerBasedRLEnv. This seems to work well.

# Description

This PR adds the possibility of initializing cameras (both Raycaster
Cameras and USD Cameras) with the intrinsic matrix instead of using the
aperture parameters. The intrinsic matrix is defined in the pattern
config and the pinhole cameras spawn config, respectively.

Moreover, it fixes the bug that the vertical aperture is not adjusted
for the USD camera case (it will always stay at the default value, even
if the horizontal aperture is set). The default is squared pixels;
however, it also allows the setting of other values.

# Description

When cameras are enabled, a default render product always gets created
for the viewport, which brings additional overhead for rendering the
viewport at each step. However, when running in headless mode, we may
not need to render the viewport if we are not recording or
livestreaming.

This change disables viewport rendering in the headless cases where
recording and livestreaming are not required.

# Description

When configclass dicts are nested inside lists, the list is treated as
an Iterable object and assigned directly to the outer configclass when
updating configclass data with dicts. This overwrites the configclass
object in the list with a dict object and causes undesired behavior.

This change checks for nested dictionaries inside Iterables and updates
the values inside the dictionary individually without overwiting the
full Iterable.

# Description

This MR adds deformable object API to assets in the core framework. The
class creates two physics views: one for the deformable object and the
other one for the deformable material. Based on these, the users can set
and get different nodal information from the solver, as well as
randomize deformable material properties.

The MR also adds some basic tests and a script in the tutorial that
showcases the deformable object.

# Description

The goal of this PR is to introduce expanded functionality to
observation corruption/realism. This is done by introducing the concept
of configurable modifiers. This creates an architecture that can apply a
list of custom modifiers to observation data giving flexibility to order
of operations. Existing modifiers for clip, scale, bias, and noise can
be used. This does so without changing the current functionality. This
PR also includes two new modifiers that are stateful (i.e. output is
dependent on previous state) that utilize a Callable class. They are a
`DigitalFilter` and an `Integrator`.

# Description

Currently, for multiple runs, the code is pushed to the same location on
the cluster. When the runs are not directly started (i.e.,
are in the queue), the code will be replaced each time a new job is
submitted. This PR creates a new copy of the code for each job to ensure
that the intended version is used for the submitted job.

# Description

This MR adds utilities to enable the hydra configuration system.
Using the `train.py` scripts, the user can now change any parameter in
the environment or agent configs from command line inputs, for example:
``` 
python source/standalone/workflows/rsl_rl/train.py --task Isaac-Cartpole-v0 --headless env.actions.joint_effort.scale=10.0
```

# Description

Mainly documentation fixes and ensuring the code quality remains
consistent. Also adds the `container.sh` script which calls the python
script for compatibility reasons. We can remove it in later releases.

# Description

Noticed that we were checking for function arguments inside a for-loop,
which isn't necessary. Moved this check outside to make it simpler to
read the code.

Also noticed a small corner case in the event manager when reset is
called and `env_ids` is None. In that case, it would bypass the check
for min steps between reset and directly apply the term to the
environment. I am not sure if that was intentional. if so, I can revert
the behavior.

This PR replicates the capabilities of `container.sh` in Python, and
breaks its capabilities up into several files under a new directory
`/docker/isaaclab_container_utils`, as well as a superior interface in
`container.py`. The intention of this change is to make our
container-mediating code more easily readable, debuggable, and
modifiable. It is also done in the hopes that it can be more easily
distributed as we see a desire from users to [compose and modify our
setup](https://github.com/isaac-sim/IsaacLab/pull/455). It also has the
additional benefit of needing fewer sudo installs because of Python's
native yaml handling.

The central class, `IsaacLabContainerInterface`, contains a lot of the
original utility of the script, and several of the current
`container.py` scripts options simply configure it and call a method.
@pascal-roth `apptainer_utils.py` and the `./container.py job/push`
logic are separated out, I'm curious what you think of this delineation.
I also haven't been able to fully test that end of things as I don't
have a cluster to use, though I did verify that it worked to the extent
I could.

I will update the docs when I have received approval
