go-board

Go Board WebComponent. The entire library weights less than 5kb gzip and less than 4k brotli which makes it performant to embed into existing web pages. If you want to see exactly what the board is calculating you can enable debugging by adding the "debug" attribute to go-board. (<go-board debug></go-board>)

All you need to get started is some markup and a script tag

<script
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/go-board@latest/bundle/go-board.min.js"
></script>

<go-board coords sfx="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/go-board@latest/assets/sfx">
  <go-stone color="black" slot="R17"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="R18"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="Q18"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="S18"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="S17"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="R19"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="Q19"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="T18"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="T17"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="Q16"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="S19"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="white" slot="T19"></go-stone>
  <go-stone color="black" slot="S19"></go-stone>
</go-board>

The go-board element can display a game from a sgf file. You can display a game from OGS.

<go-board
  coords
  src="https://online-go.com/api/v1/games/53010116/sgf"
></go-board>

go-board can also be used as a form element. It will submit the game key of the current board. This can can be parsed to set the board state manually. Being form associated also means that you can send data to your own servers without writing any JavaScript.

<form action="/save-game">
  <go-board name="game">
    <go-stone color="black" slot="R17"></go-stone>
    <go-stone color="white" slot="R18"></go-stone>
    <go-stone color="black" slot="Q18"></go-stone>
  </go-board>
</form>

Stones can be decorated with markers. The go-stone-marker element can be passed as a child to go-stone and you can add any icon or html entity that you like.

<go-board>
  <go-stone slot="Q4" color="black">
    <go-stone-marker>&check;</go-stone-marker>
  </go-stone>
</go-board>
