CuteChess with "live" PGN

Post by Toadofsky »

I understand the project maintainers won't officially support this feature.

I'm trying to broadcast engine-engine blitz matches on Lichess (published PGN via Google Drive) so if someone smart could provide some guidance on how to DIY-automate this (it sounds very challenging to do) or if it's already been done, I'd greatly appreciate it.

As part of a bigger project Im currently developing, I wrote a
"cutechess-cli -debug" parser that connects to a servlet container
via websocket. The output is a live broadcast like this: http://www.rohleder.de/tourney/

But this has nothing to do with Lichess and you need a tomcat/jetty/undertow etc running somewhere, so I dont know if that helps.
