AIInterface:Python

Spring PyAI

The Spring PyAI Interface can be used to write skirmish AIs in Python.

Code

http://github.com/spring/Python

Building

The Python Interface is in spring/master, just git clone it, and you can compile/install it!

Quick Setup Windows

download + install:

 http://buildbot.eat-peet.net/spring/installer/spring_0.81.0-888-g4813344.exe

download + extract to install-folder

 http://abma.de/builds/pyai-current.zip

download + install python:

 http://python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5.msi

Download a mod + map.

It doesn't work with the currently stable spring release. Would be nice if someone could pick the source and compile it and test it.

If you want test it, you need spring from the current git master!

Known Issuses/TODO

• there are no docs, look into interface.py if you search a function
• ai's cant force a specific python version, add an setting into aiproperties.lua
• the init event can be replaced by a function / add release function
• logging could be improved

As a note: most of the Interface is generated by a python script.

For windows there is a (cross-compiled) package here: http://abma.de/builds/pyai-current.zip

Status

Most functions and Datatypes should work. All classes and functions are generated and because of this, there is no further documentation available.

At github you find the main repository for the Interface: http://github.com/spring/Python

Check the NullPythonAI for something to start with.
