[computer-go] Python CGOS Client

[Christian Nentwich]

All,

I have released an alternative client for CGOS, written in Python. I had 
some features in there that are useful to me, and I thought maybe others 
could benefit from it.


Some key interesting features:
  - GTP extensions that tell your engine who the opponent is, and what 
the result was (useful if you persist your own SGF)

  - Local SGF persistence
  - Local "mirroring" to a GTP observer engine of all moves. This lets 
you watch games locally using GoGUI. Nice for the server, and nice 
graphics :-)

  - Usual failover using the CGOS servers move replay
  - Separate logging. The console output has only high-level stuff 
(like what colour your engine is playing, and against who)


Head on over here: http://cgos-python.sourceforge.net/

I would be interested in hearing feedback, and ideas for further 
features. I'm thinking of adding mail notification for very long 
sessions. I run this on Windows 7 (64 bit) and XP (32 bit). If you run 
into issues on Linux (shouldn't.. but...), let me know. Contributors 
also welcome, of course.


Christian
p.s. Don: if you are reading this - this client obeys the TCL client's 
convention of not hammering the server on reconnects (uses 30 seconds + 
random number), and the rest of the protocol.

As long as Don doesn't object, I'll give you SVN access to the CGOS  
project on sourceforge.net. It makes sense to keep everything  
together. Are you up for merging your project into the existing one?

Awesome!This will be a good thing for CGOS and I will put a link to it
on my site soon.

I plan to try to stick to the same exact protocol when I do the new
server.   I will almost certainly have to make minor changes to accomodate
the ability to decide which time controls to play in.In order not to
break your client I can design it so there is a default that doesn't have to
be communicated,   but I will discuss it with you when the time comes.

I don't object.

Re: [computer-go] Python CGOS Client

[Christian Nentwich]

Don,

great. I will be happy also to merge the project into your SVN, as Jason 
suggested, subject to some administrative needs that I will e-mail the 
two of you about, off-list.


I'd be more than happy to help on the client side of the new CGOS. 
Upgrading this Python client to support the new protocol (or both at the 
same time) will not be difficult at all. It will then shield the 
programs behind it, as a good adapter should.
