A legal chess or chess variant position. See Chess for a concrete implementation.

Required Methods

Set up a position.

Errors

Returns PositionError if the setup is not legal.

Collects all legal moves in an existing buffer.

Tests if there are or were castling rights that are only possible in Chess960, i.e. with the king not on the e-file or one of the rooks not on the a-file or h-file.

Tests the rare case where moving the rook to the other side during castling would uncover a rank attack.

Checks if the game is over due to a special variant end condition.

Note that for example stalemate is not considered a variant-specific end condition (is_variant_end() will return false), but it can have a special variant_outcome() in suicide chess.

Tests for insufficient winning material.

Tests special variant winning, losing and drawing conditions.

Plays a move. It is the callers responsibility to ensure the move is legal.

Panics

Illegal moves can corrupt the state of the position and may (or may not) panic or cause panics on future calls.

Provided Methods

Swap turns. This is sometimes called "playing a null move".

Errors

Returns PositionError if swapping turns is not legal (usually due to a check that has to be averted).

Generates legal moves.

Generates a subset of legal moves: All piece moves and drops of type role to the square to, excluding castling moves.

Generates legal castling moves.

Generates en passant moves.

Generates capture moves.

Tests a move for legality.

Tests if a move is irreversible.

In standard chess pawn moves, captures and moves that destroy castling rights are irreversible.

Important traits for Bitboard

Attacks that a king on square would have to deal with.

Tests if the king is in check.

Important traits for Bitboard

Bitboard of pieces giving check.

Tests for checkmate.

Tests for stalemate.

Tests if the game is over due to checkmate, stalemate, insufficient material or variant end.

The outcome of the game, or None if the game is not over.

Plays a move.

Errors

Returns IllegalMove if the move is not legal in the position.
