A minimal standalone server running stockfish.js engine written in nodejs
Non developers please see below 👇
Make sure you have node and npm installed. Clone the repo, and run npm i && npm start. You can also run npm link to be able to run the app from anywhere in your system.
Alternatively, you can compile the repo by running npm i && npm run-script package, and get a standalone binary for your operating system.
Once it is running, you can use the test.sh script in this repo to try out the functionality.
It takes a fen string of a chess game, puts it through a stockfish(js) chess engine, analyzes the puzzle, and returns the best move.
You can simply go to releases section, and download the latest standalone binary for your OS.
If you want to test its functionality in real games, ChessBulldozer is a plugin to use on Chess.com that is developed to work with this stockfish-server application.
USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Please do not use ChessBulldozer plugin to crush your opponents like insects 😓. I was banned from Chess.com after using it to continuously win about 20 perfect games in one sitting, not to mention hours of my life I will never get back..
- automate building and release process
- fen string regex filter
- use GET instead of POST
- safely decode uri components
