https://gameplay.computer

Play connect 4 against yourself or other people. Write AI agents that play connect4 and battle other AI agents.

Dependencies

• postgres
• rust (to build the native code)
• python 3.11
• tox (pip install tox)
• maturin (pip install maturin)

Running

First build the rust code.

$ maturin build

Set up two databases, one for the web app and one for testing. Set the environment variables DATABASE_URL and TEST_DATABASE_URL. Something like this.

$ createdb gameplay
$ createdb gameplay_test
$ export DATABASE_URL="postgresql://localhost:5432/gameplay"
$ export TEST_DATABASE_URL="postgresql://localhost:5432/gameplay_test"

Then, run the migrations on the two databases to get them up to date.

$ tox -e alembic -- upgrade head
$ DATABASE_URL=$TEST_DATABASE_URL tox -e alembic -- upgrade head

Try the tests and lint job

$ tox -e test
$ tox -e webtest
$ tox -e lint

Then you can run the web app locally.

$ tox -e web

If you want to create another virtual environment for your editor to use or local testing you can do that like this.

$ python3.11 -m venv .venv
$ . .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install --upgrade pip
$ pip install tox maturin
$ maturin build
$ pip install -e '.[test,lint,web,migrate]'
