An chess playing robot, powered by Stockfish and Octoprint. For documentation, see our wiki.
- 3-core CPU and at least 3GB of RAM (theoretically this can run with only 2 cores and 2GB of RAM, but at the risk of crashing / hanging your computer)
- A Linux-based operating system with sudo
- Python 3.10+ and pip
- Octoprint server connected to a 3D printer
- An electromagnet connected to M106/M107 extruder fan control
- 4-core+ CPU and at least 6GB of RAM
- Python 3.11+ and pip
- Knowledge of simple Linux commands
First, visit our releases page and download the .whl file from the desired version (the 'latest' version is recommended).
Then, run
pip install robotic_chess-0.2.1-py3.whl
(replace 0.2.1 with the version number of your downloaded wheel).
First, clone our repo using git clone https://github.com/Hacking3DPrinters/robotic-chess.git, and enter the new directory. Then do pip install dist/robotic_chess-0.2.1-py3-none-any.whl (replace 0.2.1 with the desired version number).
Run python3 -m robotic_chess.
If installed from .whl: Follow instructions above.
Otherwise, run cd {CLONED_DIR}/src/robotic_chess (where {CLONED_DIR} is the directory you cloned into) and python3 __init__.py.
