This is a python3 based lichess board API client program for CERTABO physical boards. It's a proof of concept and probably still has some rough edges.

The API token can be created in the lichess preferences page ("API Access tokens"). Generate a personal access token and make sure to enable "Play games with the board API". Store the token in a file named 'lichess.token' in the same directory.

see requirements.txt. You can install the modules via pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt

simplejson must not be installed as it doesn't work with berserk

On the mac you need to install the Silabs virtual com port driver. It can be downloaded from the CERTABO website: https://www.certabo.com/download/

Calibration can be run with the optional "--calibrate" command line argument. Make sure to have the pieces on the correct places.

• shake out bugs
• clean up logging (very chatty for now)
