Alpha Chess Analysis using Chess.js and ChessBoard.js

Back in 2006, I had a TREO. The phone was cool at the time. It had a chess program that was great. The engine was okay, but it really shone when used to record a game between 2 people. When I upgraded to a legitimate smart phone, I couldn't find anything as useful even though I've now downloaded about 30 apps in search of this holy grail.

• Standard graphical board with click and drag movement (thanks oakmac!)
• Disallow invalid moves (thanks jhlywa!)
• Click on a move in the move list to reposition the board to that move
• Create analysis lines by making a different move when the board is not at the end of the move list
• Persist to a mongoDB database

• Multiple Users with access to all games marked public or participated in
• Real-time playing over a network
• Analysis notation and commenting
• Set up a position to play from
• Import PGN files
• Enable Save to Local DB and upload when connected

• For persisting games to the database, currently a JSON-capable REST api is expected.
  //(ServerUrl)/(DBName)/(CollectionName)/(ID) for a HTTP GET command. I use the basic MongoRest Node.js project here, borrowed from tdegrunt over here

• Clone the repo
• cd to the repo directory
• Run npm install and bower install
• Edit chessLogger.js to add your default mongodb url, db name, and collection name in the default settings in controller (if you want game persistence)
• Documentation is in /docs (and incomplete), but you can generate it using jsdoc -c jsdoc.json or grunt if you have jsdoc installed.
• Enjoy
