Javascript library to allow reading of a PGN (Portable Game Notation) chess game notation, and providing the result as JSON.

## What is it?

[PGN](http://www.saremba.de/chessgml/standards/pgn/pgn-complete.htm) is a shortcut for [portable game notation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Game_Notation). It was developed in 1993. It helps standardize how chess games were
notated, so that computer programs like the [PgnViewerJS](https://github.com/mliebelt/PgnViewerJS)  could be developed. PGN is the standard to keep chess games forever. There are huge databases available like those from https://lichess.org.

## Who needs it?

Everyone that wants to implement chess software and has to read PGN notation. The library is a runtime component to be included in the usual way.

import { parse } from '@mliebelt/pgn-parser'

or

let parse = require("@mliebelt/pgn-parser").parse

## How to install it?

npm i @mliebelt/pgn-parser --save

## How to use it?

Look at the many test cases that show how to use it. Have a look at the examples in directory doc.

It does not have an API, just a JSON structure that has to be read then. You have 4 top level rules to use the parser:

* `games`: Reads many games from the string given, returns an array of games (object with keys `tags` and `moves`).
* `game`: Reads a complete game, and returns an object with keys `tags` and `moves`.
* `tags`: Reads only the tags from the given input. The input must not contain any moves.
* `pgn`: Reads only the moves of the game (as array).

A code example to read a complete game then looks like:
```javascript
import { parse } from '@mliebelt/pgn-parser'
let game = parse('[White "Me"] [Black "Magnus"] 1. f4 e5 2. g4 Qh4#', {startRule: "game"})
console.log(JSON.stringify(game, null, 2))
```

This leads to the following output:
```json
{
  "tags": {
    "White": "Me",
    "Black": "Magnus"
  },
  "moves": [
    {
      "turn": "w",
      "moveNumber": 1,
    ...
    },
    {...},
    ...
  ]
}
```
See the example `doc/read-sample.js` that can be directly used in the shell: `node doc/read-sample.js`. The directory contains some more examples how to use it.

## How to use it as an CLI?

You can use `pgn-parser` as a command line tool for parsing PGN files to JSON

``` bash
npm install --global @mliebelt/pgn-parser
pgn-parser file.pgn

# Or

npx @mliebelt/pgn-parser file.pgn
```

The optional parameter `-p` emits the result pretty-printed.

## How to use it in the browser?

There is a UMD version of the library available which works both in node and in the browser. The file `doc/index.html` is an example that shows how it works, and explains what to do for that.

So it is not necessary anymore to build a version of that library with `browserify`.
