Chessboardjs Themes

A set of themes for chessboardjs by Chris Oakman. No images requiered.

Live Version

See the themes in this link.

Why this

In a project I was unable to use images so an alternative was turn image to a data-uri format (via R script, that was the fun part ;)).

Other reson was have more pieces and board themes.

How to use

  1. Load chessboard.js and chessboard.css as usual.
  2. Load chessboardjs-themes.js.
  3. Use them using pieceTheme and boardThemeconfiguration option.

Example Use

var board = ChessBoard('boardiv', {
  pieceTheme: chess24_theme,
  boardTheme: chess24_board_theme ,
  position: 'start'
});

var board2 = ChessBoard('boardiv2', {
  pieceTheme: metro_theme,
  boardTheme: metro_board_theme,
  position: 'r1bqkbnr/pppp1ppp/2n5/1B2p3/4P3/5N2/PPPP1PPP/RNBQK2R'
});

});
