# ARCHIVED

This repo has been archived. I am no longer hosting nor maintaining this bot, because noone really uses PGN anymore in /r/chess. Feel free to fork it or mail me for questions.

# Reddit: PGN to gif converter

*Converts PGN in `[pgn][/pgn]` tags from http://reddit.com/r/chess (among other subreddits) into gifs hosted on imgur and to a [lichess analysis board](https://lichess.org/analysis). It comments the links as a reply on reddit.*

* Supports multiple PGN tags in a single post or comment
* Uses [`python-chess`](https://github.com/niklasf/python-chess) which has a lax PGN parsing
* Conversion to GIF using [`lila-gif`](https://github.com/niklasf/lila-gif) (with the nice lichess chess board theme)
* Outputs multiple speed variants as an imgur album
* *Only the main line of a PGN is supported*

Examples can be seen on reddit: http://reddit.com/u/PGNtoGIF
