# flutter_stockfish_plugin
|
|
|
|
A Flutter plugin for the Stockfish Chess engine.
|
|
|
|
The current version is based on Stockfish 16.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```dart
|
|
final stockfish = new Stockfish()
|
|
|
|
// Listen on stdout of Stockfish engine
|
|
final stockfishSubscription = stockfish.stdout.listen((line) {
|
|
print("received: $line");
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Sending UCI command to get Stockfish ready
|
|
stockfish.stdin = 'isready'
|
|
|
|
stockfish.stdin = 'position startpos moves e2e4' // set up start position
|
|
stockfish.stdin = 'go depth 20' // search bestmove with a max septh of 20
|
|
|
|
// Don't remember to dispose Stockfish when you're done.
|
|
// Make shure to dispose Stockfish when closing the app. May use WindowListener.
|
|
stockfishSubscription.cancel();
|
|
stockfish.dispose();
|
|
```
|

A complete Example can be found at [stockfish_chess_engine](https://github.com/loloof64/StockfishChessEngineFlutter).
|
|
|
|
## Web support
|
|
Web support is currently experimental. It uses a version of stockfish compiled with [emscripten](https://emscripten.org/).
|
|
|
|
In order to make multithreading available, the site must run in a secure environment.
|
|
The following headers must be set for this:
|
|
|
|
- `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp`
|
|
- `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin`
|
|
|
|
Problems:
|
|
- The current version includes the `.js`, `.wasm` and neuralnetwork data as assets.
|
|
These files are bundled with every build on every platform, even if they are not needed.
|
|
This approach wasts about 41MB, if not striped out by hand.
|
|

|
|
## Goal of this fork of stockfish_chess_engine
|
|
|
|
* Avoid limitation. This version does not redirect stdout and stdin of the app for communication with stockfish.
|
|
* stdin and stdout were replaced with a fakestream element.
|
|
* Stockfish internal logging might not work (could be fixed).
