Learn how to build a multiplayer chess game with React

Hello and welcome! ??

Today I bring a tutorial to guide you through building a multiplayer chess game using SuperViz. Multiplayer games require real-time synchronization and interaction between players, making them ideal applications for SuperViz's capabilities.

This tutorial will show you how to create a chess game where two players can play against each other in real-time, seeing each other's moves as they happen.

We'll demonstrate how to set up a chessboard using the react-chessboard library, manage the game state with chess.js, and synchronize player moves with SuperViz. This setup allows multiple participants to join a chess game, make moves, and experience a seamless and interactive chess game environment. Let's get started!

Prerequisite

To follow this tutorial, you will need a SuperViz account and a developer token. If you already have an account and a developer token, you can move on to the next step.

Create an Account

To create an account, go to SuperViz Registration and create an account using either Google or an email/password. It's important to note that when using an email/password, you will receive a confirmation link that you'll need to click to verify your account.

Retrieving a Developer Token

To use the SDK, you’ll need to provide a developer token, as this token is essential for associating SDK requests with your account. You can retrieve both development and production SuperViz tokens from the dashboard. Copy and save the developer token, as you will need it in the next steps of this tutorial.

Step 1: Set Up Your React Application

To begin, you'll need to set up a new React project where we will integrate SuperViz.

1. Create a New React Project

First, create a new React application using Create React App with TypeScript.

npm create vite@latest chess-game -- --template react-ts
cd chess-game

2. Install Required Libraries

Next, install the necessary libraries for our project:

npm install @superviz/sdk react-chessboard chess.js uuid

登录后复制

@superviz/sdk: SDK for integrating real-time collaboration features, including synchronization.
react-chessboard: A library for rendering a chessboard in React applications.
chess.js: A library for managing chess game logic and rules.
uuid: A library for generating unique identifiers, useful for creating unique participant IDs.

3. Configure tailwind

In this tutorial, we'll use the Tailwind css framework. First, install the tailwind package.

npm install -D tailwindcss postcss autoprefixer
npx tailwindcss init -p

登录后复制

We then need to configure the template path. Open tailwind.config.js in the root of the project and insert the following code.

/** @type  {import('tailwindcss').Config} */
export  default  {
content:  [
"./index.html",
"./src/**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx}",
],
theme:  {
extend:  {},
},
plugins:  [],

}

登录后复制

Then we need to add the tailwind directives to the global CSS file. (src/index.css)

@tailwind base;
@tailwind components;
@tailwind utilities;

4. Set Up Environment Variables

Create a .env file in your project root and add your SuperViz developer key. This key will be used to authenticate your application with SuperViz services.

VITE_SUPERVIZ_API_KEY=YOUR_SUPERVIZ_DEVELOPER_KEY

Step 2: Implement the Main Application

In this step, we'll implement the main application logic to initialize SuperViz and handle real-time chess moves.

1. Implement the App Component

Open src/App.tsx and set up the main application component using SuperViz to manage the collaborative environment.

import  { v4 as generateId }  from  'uuid';
import  { useCallback, useEffect, useRef, useState }  from  "react";
import SuperVizRoom,  { Realtime, RealtimeComponentEvent, RealtimeMessage, WhoIsOnline }  from  '@superviz/sdk';
import  { Chessboard }  from  "react-chessboard";
import  { Chess, Square }  from  'chess.js';

登录后复制

Explanation:

Imports: Import necessary components from React, SuperViz SDK, react-chessboard, chess.js, and UUID for managing state, initializing SuperViz, rendering the chessboard, and generating unique identifiers.

2. Define Constants

Define constants for the API key, room ID, and player ID.

const apiKey =  import.meta.env.VITE_SUPERVIZ_API_KEY  as  string;
const  ROOM_ID  =  'chess-game';
const  PLAYER_ID  =  generateId();

登录后复制

Explanation:

apiKey: Retrieves the SuperViz API key from environment variables.
ROOM_ID: Defines the room ID for the SuperViz session.
PLAYER_ID: Generates a unique player ID using the uuid library.

3. Define Chess Message Type

Create a type for handling chess move messages.

type  ChessMessageUpdate  = RealtimeMessage &  {
 data:  {
     sourceSquare: Square;
     targetSquare: Square;
  };
};

登录后复制

Explanation:

ChessMessageUpdate: Extends the RealtimeMessage to include the source and target squares for a chess move.

4. Create the App Component

Set up the main App component and initialize state variables.

export  default  function  App()  {
    const  [initialized, setInitialized]  =  useState(false);
    const  [gameState, setGameState]  =  useState<Chess>(new  Chess());
    const  [gameFen, setGameFen]  =  useState<string>(gameState.fen());

    const channel =  useRef<any  |  null>(null);

登录后复制

Explanation:

initialized: A state variable to track whether the SuperViz environment has been set up.
gameState: A state variable to manage the chess game state using the chess.js library.
gameFen: A state variable to store the FEN (Forsyth-Edwards Notation) string representing the current game position.
channel: A ref to store the real-time communication channel.

5. Initialize SuperViz and Real-Time Components

Create an initialize function to set up the SuperViz environment and configure real-time synchronization.

const initialize = useCallback(async () => {
    if (initialized) return; 
    const superviz = await SuperVizRoom(apiKey, { 
    roomId: ROOM_ID, 
    participant: { 
        id: PLAYER_ID, 
        name: 'player-name', 
    }, 
    group: { 
        id: 'chess-game', 
        name: 'chess-game', 
    } 
}); 

const realtime = new Realtime(); 
const whoIsOnline = new WhoIsOnline(); 

superviz.addComponent(realtime); 
superviz.addComponent(whoIsOnline); 

setInitialized(true); 

realtime.subscribe(RealtimeComponentEvent.REALTIME_STATE_CHANGED, () => { 
    channel.current = realtime.connect('move-topic'); 
    channel.current.subscribe('new-move', handleRealtimeMessage); 
    }); 
}, [handleRealtimeMessage, initialized]);

登录后复制

Explanation:

initialize: An asynchronous function that initializes the SuperViz room and checks if it's already initialized to prevent duplicate setups.
SuperVizRoom: Configures the room, participant, and group details for the session.
Realtime Subscription: Connects to the move-topic channel and listens for new moves, updating the local state accordingly.

6. Handle Chess Moves

Create a function to handle chess moves and update the game state.

const makeMove = useCallback((sourceSquare: Square, targetSquare: Square) => { 
    try { 
        const gameCopy = gameState; 
        gameCopy.move({ from: sourceSquare, to: targetSquare, promotion: 'q' }); 

        setGameState(gameCopy); 
        setGameFen(gameCopy.fen()); 

        return true; 
    } catch (error) { 
        console.log('Invalid Move', error); 
        return false; 
    }
}, [gameState]);

登录后复制

Explanation:

makeMove: Attempts to make a move on the chessboard, updating the game state and FEN string if the move is valid.
Promotion: Automatically promotes a pawn to a queen if it reaches the last rank.

7. Handle Piece Drop

Create a function to handle piece drop events on the chessboard.

const onPieceDrop = (sourceSquare: Square, targetSquare: Square) => { 
    const result = makeMove(sourceSquare, targetSquare); 

    if (result) { 
        channel.current.publish('new-move', { 
            sourceSquare, 
            targetSquare, 
        });
    } 
     return result; 
};

登录后复制

Explanation:

onPieceDrop: Handles the logic for when a piece is dropped on a new square, making the move and publishing it to the SuperViz channel if valid.

8. Handle Real-Time Messages

Create a function to handle incoming real-time messages for moves made by other players.

const handleRealtimeMessage =  useCallback((message: ChessMessageUpdate)  =>  {
  if  (message.participantId ===  PLAYER_ID)  return;

  const  { sourceSquare, targetSquare }  = message.data;
  makeMove(sourceSquare, targetSquare);
},  [makeMove]);

登录后复制

Explanation:

handleRealtimeMessage: Listens for incoming move messages and updates the game state if the move was made by another participant.

9. Use Effect Hook for Initialization

Use the useEffect hook to trigger the initialize function on component mount.

useEffect(()  =>  {
  initialize();
},  [initialize]);

登录后复制

Explanation:

useEffect: Calls the initialize function once when the component mounts, setting up the SuperViz environment and real-time synchronization.

10. Render the Application

Return the JSX structure for rendering the application, including the chessboard and collaboration features.

return ( 
    <div className='w-full h-full bg-gray-200 flex items-center justify-center flex-col'>
        <header className='w-full p-5 bg-purple-400 flex items-center justify-between'> 
            <h1 className='text-white text-2xl font-bold'>SuperViz Chess Game</h1> 
        </header> 
        <main className='w-full h-full flex items-center justify-center'> 
            <div className='w-[500px] h-[500px] shadow-sm border-2 border-gray-300 rounded-md'>
                <Chessboard position={gameFen} onPieceDrop={onPieceDrop} /> 
                <div className='w-[500px] h-[50px] bg-gray-300 flex items-center justify-center'> 
                    <p className='text-gray-800 text-2xl font-bold'>Turn: {gameState.turn() === 'b' ? 'Black' : 'White'}</p> 
                </div> 
            </div> 
        </main> 
    </div>
);

Explanation:

Header: Displays the title of the application.
Chessboard: Renders the chessboard using the Chessboard component, with gameFen as the position and onPieceDrop as the event handler for piece drops.
Turn Indicator: Displays the current player's turn (Black or White).

Step 3: Understanding the Project Structure

Here's a quick overview of how the project structure supports a multiplayer chess game:

App.tsx
- Initializes the SuperViz environment.
- Sets up participant information and room details.
- Handles real-time synchronization for chess moves.
Chessboard
- Displays the chessboard and manages piece movements.
- Integrates real-time communication to synchronize moves between players.
Chess Logic
- Uses chess.js to manage game rules and validate moves.
- Updates the game state and FEN string to reflect the current board position.

Step 4: Running the Application

1. Start the React Application

To run your application, use the following command in your project directory:

npm run dev
