This project is not completed and abandoned for now. The meta game logic is (sort of) in place, but there is no actual Go game engine connected though. Three types of websocket-clients are prototyped: terminal in the browser, python script and telegram bot. It may serve as architectural inspiration for future Django (Channels) projects of mine.
Requires Python 3.6 or newer.
Navigate to this cloned repository and create a virtual environment:
python -m venv .venv. Sometimes it's python3 instead, check which one is the 3.6+ version on your system by running python, leave again with quit().
Activate it using source activate .venv on macOS, source .venv/bin/activate on Linux or .\.venv\Scripts\activate on windows.
Install the requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt.
If you use an IDE like PyCharm, set the newly created .venv as Project Interpreter.
Initialise the database: python manage.py migrate.
And whenever you change something regarding the database models (models.py) run python manage.py makemigrations go_server_app and then python manage.py migrate again. This will update the database to reflect your new models.
Add administrators using python manage.py createsuperuser.
python manage.py runserver starts the Django server at localhost:8000.
Admin options are located at /admin.
Just a dummy implementation, no game logic so far.
(note that the screenshot exposes a flaw : clients should respond with =C4 to a genmove command, not with a play command)
Strict GTP starts when both players have joined a game. Clients can submit commands at any time, however, the server will respond to play commands with an error. Clients may only respond to a genmove command with their move. In that way, the server is responsible for the turn-by-turn management.
