Why this project exists

I was not happy with the performance of similar chess tools using python

Features

• query games from pgn files

• reconcile multiple pgn files into one

• convert chessbase files to pgn (experimental*)

Getting started

Download the binary or build from source

Planned additions

• ✓ Convert games from other formats to pgn

• ✓ Reconcile games into one database

• ❏ Create tactics puzzles from games

Experimental

Convert is an experimental feature not yet fully supported, current drawbacks to using convert:

• No check / checkmate marks

• No variations

• No disambiguations

• Incomplete dates default to November 30th

Contributing

I’m open to contributions.
