go-engine-tester

Introduction

This program runs a batch of games between 2 GTP-compatible Go (围棋, 囲碁, 바둑) engines to compare their strength. It can also compare the strength under different options of the same engine.

Install

npm install go-engine-tester -g

Usage

Add a file config.json, then run:

go-engine-tester config.json

config.json example:

{
    "first": {
        "name": "config1",
        "command": "./leelaz",
        "args": ["-w", "network-173.gz", "--gtp", "--noponder", "-p", "100"]
    },
    "second": {
        "name": "config2",
        "command": "./leelaz",
        "args": ["-w", "network-157.gz", "--gtp", "--noponder", "-p", "100"]
    },
    "times": 30
}

This will play 30 games between the first engine and the second engine, and finally print the result.

There's an optional spawnOptions attribute, so that it could pass environment variables to the engine processes:

{
    "first": {
        "name": "config1",
        "command": "./leelaz",
        "args": ["-w", "network-173.gz", "--gtp", "--noponder", "-p", "100"],
        "spawnOptions": {
            "env": {
                "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH": "/Users/your-name/boost_1_67_0/lib"
            }
        }
    },
    "second": {
        "name": "config2",
        "command": "./leelaz",
        "args": ["-w", "network-157.gz", "--gtp", "--noponder", "-p", "100"],
        "spawnOptions": {
            "env": {
                "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH": "/Users/your-name/boost_1_67_0/lib"
            }
        }
    },
    "times": 30
}
