A simple BattleSnake AI written in Python. Available live at battlesnake-python.herokuapp.com.

To get started you'll need a working Python 2.7.6+ development environment and should be familiar with deploying Python apps to Heroku.

If you don't have a Python environment setup, we suggest starting here. You'll need pip and virtualenv for dependency management. We also suggest using virtualenvwrapper.

This AI client uses the bottle web framework for route management and response building, and the gunicorn web server for running bottle on Heroku.

Dependencies are listed in requirements.txt.

Fork and clone this repo:

> git clone [email protected]:sendwithus/battlesnake-python.git
> cd battlesnake-python

Create new virtualenv (using virtualenvwrapper) and install dependencies:

> mkvirtualenv battlesnake-python
> workon battlesnake-python
> pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the server locally:

> ./run
Bottle v0.12.8 server starting up (using WSGIRefServer())...
Listening on http://localhost:8080/
Hit Ctrl-C to quit.

Test client in your browser: http://localhost:8080

Create a new Heroku app:

heroku create [APP_NAME]

Push code to Heroku servers:

git push heroku master

Open Heroku app in browser.

heroku open

Or go directly to: http://APP_NAME.herokuapp.com

You can also view liveserver logs with the heroku logs command:

heroku logs --tail
