gomokuai

Simple gompku ai

Calculates next move for a gomoku game.

Install

npm install gomokuai.

Usage

Gomokuai has a simple API with just two funktions:

// bestMove :: ([Mark], Size) -> Position
//  Mark = 0 | 1 | 2
//  Size = Integer
//  Position = { x: Integer, y: Integer }
const bestMove = (board, boardSize) => {
    /*...*/
};
 
// randomMove :: ([Mark], Size) -> Position
//  Mark = 0 | 1 | 2
//  Size = Integer
//  Position = { x: Integer, y: Integer }
const randomMove = (board, boardSize) => {
    /*...*/
};

You put in a flat array representing your gomoku game board, the size of the game board (quadratic, eg 10x10 gives Size = 10) and you get back a position object.

bestMove calculates the best move to make on the current game board and randomMove just gives you a random placement on any free space.

Example

const ai = require("gomokuai");
 
/* ... */
 
const { x, y } = ai.bestMove(gameBoard.getBoard(), gameBoard.getSize());
gameBoard.play(x, y);

Tests

Clone the repo, cd in, npm install, npm test.

TODO

• Write a new best-move calculator.
• Increase code quality.
