Command-line Shogi game
This project is an implementation of a Shogi (Japanese chess) game aimed at showcasing object-oriented design and object-oriented programming principles.
As it stands, it provides a client to play the game through a command-line interface, but it's easily adaptable to other interfaces in the future. The implemented features include:
- Piece movement, including capturing opposing pieces, but without piece promotion abilities
- Dropping of captured pieces
The code has been structured to follow a rough hexagonal architecture, separating Domain, Application (use cases) and Infrastructure (interface) concerns. It also includes unit tests for Domain classes.
You must have Python 3.* installed.
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/Urbistondo/Shogi.gitTo run the game, navigate to src/ and run the Main.py file
cd src
python Main.pyTo move a piece, you must provide the coordinates to choose a piece the same color as the color of the current player, and the coordinates of the square to which you wish to move the piece, with the following format:
From (row col):
20
To (row col):
30This will move the piece at row 2 and column 0 to the square at row 3 and column 0.
Captured pieces appear above the board for the white player and below it for the black one, and is refered to as line 9. To drop a captured piece on the board, select it like so:
From (row col):
91
To (row col):
44Assuming you have captured pieces, this command will drop the second captured piece in square at row 4 and column 4 as long as said square is empty.
