lidraughts-boardimage

Intended for personal use

An HTTP service that renders draughts board images, used for lidraughts.org

It includes a minimal implementation of the python-chess library for draughts (only piece/board representation and svg).

It uses the same API as web-boardimage, where move notation and FEN strings are replaced by their draughts counterparts. See the adapted installation and usage instructions below.

Usage

python3 server.py [--port 8080] [--bind 127.0.0.1] [--css default.css]

Installation

Requires Python 3.4+.

sudo apt-get install python3-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libcairo2

pip install -r requirements.txt
