• install

npm i chess-ai

pnpm add chess-ai

import { calculateBestMove, initGame } from "chess-ai";

• use

/**
 * (optional)
 * @param chess ChessInstance created using new Chess() /chess.js/
 * @param difficulty number usually between 0 and 2 inclusive, higher difficulty will increase computaion time
 */
initGame(chess, difficulty)

// if initGame() was called before
const bestMove = calculateBestMove();

// if initGame not called before, you must pass the chess and difficulty params when you call this fucniton for the first time.
const chess = new Chess();
...
...
const bestMove = calculateBestMove(chess, 1); // difficulty = 1

if(bestMove) chess.move(bestMove);
