evalon32/lc0: The rewritten engine, originally for tensorflow. Now all other backends have been ported here.

Lc0 is a UCI-compliant chess engine designed to play chess via neural network, specifically those of the LeelaChessZero project.

Lc0 can be acquired either via a git clone or an archive download from GitHub. Be aware that there is a required submodule which isn't included in source archives.

For essentially all purposes, including selfplay game generation and match play, we highly recommend using the release branch, which is equivalent to using the latest version tag.

Versioning follows the Semantic Versioning guidelines, with major, minor and patch sections. The training server enforces game quality using the versions output by the client and engine.

Download using git:

git clone -b release --recurse-submodules https://github.com/LeelaChessZero/lc0.git

If downloading an archive, you need to also download and place the submodule:

• Download https://github.com/LeelaChessZero/lc0/archive/release.zip (.tar.gz archive is also available)
• Extract
• Download https://github.com/LeelaChessZero/lczero-common/archive/master.zip (also available as .tar.gz)
• Move the second archive into the first archive's libs/lczero-common/ folder and extract
• The final form should look like <TOP>/libs/lczero-common/proto/

Having successfully acquired Lc0 via either of these methods, proceed to the build section below and follow the instructions for your OS.

Building should be easier now than it was in the past. Please report any problems you have.

Aside from the git submodule, lc0 requires the Meson build system and at least one backend library for evaluating the neural network, as well as the required libraries protobuf and zlib. (gtest is optionally used for the test suite.) If your system already has those two libraries installed, they will be used; otherwise Meson will generate its own copy of the two (a "subproject"), which in turn requires that git is installed (yes, separately from cloning the actual lc0 repository). Meson also requires python and Ninja.

Backend support includes (in theory) any CBLAS-compatible library for CPU usage, such as OpenBLAS or Intel's MKL. For GPUs, OpenCL and CUDA+cudnn are supported.

Given those basics, the OS and backend specific instructions are below.

1. Install backend:
   • (if you want version with tensorflow) Install tensorflow_cc by following steps described here.
   • (if you want cuDNN version) Install CUDA and cuDNN.
   • (if you want OpenBLAS version) Install OpenBLAS (libopenblas-dev).
2. Install ninja build (ninja-build), meson, and (optionally) gtest (libgtest-dev).
3. Go to lc0/
4. Run ./build.sh
5. lc0 will be in lc0/build/release/ directory

If you want to build with a different compiler, pass the CC and CXX environment variables:

CC=clang-6.0 CXX=clang++-6.0 ./build.sh

For Ubuntu 16.04 you need the latest version of meson and clang-6.0 before performing the steps above:

wget -O - https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-add-repository 'deb http://apt.llvm.org/xenial/ llvm-toolchain-xenial-6.0 main'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install clang-6.0 ninja-build protobuf-compiler libprotobuf-dev
pip3 install meson --user
CC=clang-6.0 CXX=clang++-6.0 INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local ./build.sh

Make sure that ~/.local/bin is in your PATH environment variable. You can now type lc0 --help and start.

1. Install Microsoft Visual Studio
2. Install CUDA (v9.2 is fine)
3. Install cuDNN.
4. Install Python3
5. Install Meson: pip3 install --upgrade meson
6. Edit build-cuda.cmd:

• If you use MSVS other than 2015 (or if it's installed into non-standard location):
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\ replace 14.0 with your version
  • --backend 2015 replace 2015 with your version
• C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v9.2\lib\x64 replace with your CUDA path
• C:\dev\cuDNN\ replace with your cuDNN directory

1. Run build-cuda.cmd. It will generate MSVS project and pause.

Then either:

1. Hit to build it.
2. Resulting binary will be build/lc0.exe

Or.

1. Open generated solution build/lc0.sln in Visual Studio and build yourself.

1. Install brew as per the instructions at https://brew.sh/
2. Install python3: brew install python3
3. Install meson: brew install meson
4. Install ninja: brew install ninja
5. Run ./build.sh
6. The resulting binary will be in build/release
