# flutter_stockfish_plugin
A Flutter plugin for 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();
```
## 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 where replaced with a fakestream element.
* Stockfish internel Logging might not work (could be fixed).
