Project description
A client for the lichess.org API
This is a client library for the Lichess API. It is designed to be:
-
Easy to use
-
Customizable when you need it
-
Adaptable to API changes
Getting a user's rating:
>>> import lichesspy.api
>>>
>>> user = lichesspy.api.user('thibault')
>>> print(user['perfs']['blitz']['rating'])
1617
Checking who's online and playing:
>>> import lichesspy.api
>>>
>>> users = list(lichesspy.api.users_status(['thibault', 'cyanfish']))
>>> online = [u['id'] for u in users if u['online']]
>>> playing = [u['id'] for u in users if u['playing']]
>>> print(online, playing)
['thibault', 'cyanfish'] ['cyanfish']
Saving a PGN of a user's last 200 games:
>>> import lichesspy.api
>>> from lichesspy.format import SINGLE_PGN
>>>
>>> pgn = lichesspy.api.user_games('thibault', max=200, format=SINGLE_PGN)
>>> with open('last200.pgn', 'w') as f:
>>> f.write(pgn)
Integrating with python-chess:
>>> import lichesspy.api
>>> from lichesspy.format import PYCHESS
>>>
>>> game = lichesspy.api.game('Qa7FJNk2', format=PYCHESS)
>>> print(game.end().board())
