tcecevaluationbot's Issues

Recover after reconnection

I have a problem keeping the bot alive, sometimes after a day or so the Twitch bot client disconnects and reconnects(as expected), however, it lost all message events afterwards.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run the bot normally
2. Unplug & replug network cable
3. The bot will not respond to any messages

Add OnReconnected handler and print logs in there, I can see after step 2 the reconnection is successful, but repeating step 2, it will not trigger the handler anymore.

!time command: Shortest/longest game in moves as well

I think the !time command could get even more popular if the number of moves was included.

Maybe like (example after four played games in Division 4):
216/220 games left • Average duration: 01:11:59 • Estimated division end: Wed, 28 Nov 2018 15:53:34 GMT • Shortest game: 01:03:49 (54 moves)• Longest game: 01:24:08 (82 moves)

Or maybe like (as shortest/longest game in time, is not always the game with fewest/most moves):
216/220 games left • Average duration: 01:11:59 • Estimated division end: Wed, 28 Nov 2018 15:53:34 GMT • Shortest game: 01:03:49 • Longest game: 01:24:08 • Fewest moves: 50 • Most moves: 82

Update Lc0 please?

LCZero_0.16 (11260) could be upgraded to 18.1 (11248) please.

Readability

Readability can be improved a bit:
g8f6 -> Ng8-f6 -or even-> Nf6

This is my first ever issue entry, pls frgv abnormalities :)

Oxford API broken due to missing authentication

error "no active game was found" when valid game was playing at TCEC, in the middle of game

error "no active game was found" when valid game was playing at TCEC, in the middle of game.
Also, it was Mark Lefter himself who tried !eval and got such error. What luck!
So, I presume when Eval Bot tried to fetch FEN for evaluation, for some reason there was no response from TCEC server. that's why "no active game was found".
It should re-try to fetch for FEN, and issue fail message only after many re-tries.

Add wrapper for twitch client so that response messages will be queued and sent one by one in 5 seconds interval

eval command for specific moves

Hello Nikolay, thanks for all your contributions to TCEC. Is it possible to create an eval command that could evaluate specific moves in the current real-time game position? Such as !eval 26. a5 for example...

Exception in "!reverse"

Error while executing "!reverse": System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Refactor IPositionEvaluator instances to be defined in the configuration file

Feature request: Add a command to display the estimated starting time of the next game

The bot already displays the estimated starting time of an upcoming game with the !time <game number> command, but twitch viewers don't have access to the TCEC schedule so there is no easy way for them to tell the game number of the current (or any other) game.

JamesTCEC suggested a !nextgame command for the bot with the same effect as a !time <current game number> + 1. (The command should preferably be called !nextgame because !next is already taken by Nightbot.)

Wrong castle notation

It gives Kxg8 instead of O-O, quote: eval_bot (13w) 1.04 d31 (tb 4) pv Qf2(g3f2) Kxg8(e8g8) <SF_240518>

add the option to tell !eval funtion to work with stockfish with typing only fish

Improve !cdb parsing

Text format API has '\0' at end of line for legacy purposes, modern applications can make use of json output by adding &json=1 to the request here:

TcecEvaluationBot/src/TcecEvaluationBot.ConsoleUI/Services/ChessDbcnScoreProvider.cs

Line 34 in 08d287b

const string urlParameters = "?action=queryall&board={0}";

which will result in responses like this:
https://www.chessdb.cn/cdb.php?action=queryall&learn=1&showall=1&board=rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR%20w%20KQkq%20-%200%201&json=1
Results will have moves in SAN notations which simplifies this:

TcecEvaluationBot/src/TcecEvaluationBot.ConsoleUI/Services/ChessDbcnScoreProvider.cs

Lines 94 to 96 in 08d287b

	// AlgebraicToSan produces '\0' bytes. TODO: fix?
	var san = MoveConverter.AlgebraicToSan(fen, moveStr).Replace("\0", string.Empty);
	scores.Add(san, new ChessDbcnScore(scoreStr, sideToMove));
