rust-arenaclient

rust-arenaclient was created for ai-arena to act as a proxy between bots and StarCraft II. It was originally written entirely in Python, but due to performance concerns, was rewritten using Rust + pyo3.

It can be used as a stand-alone binary or as a Python library for convenience.

Installation

You can install rust_arenaclient using:

pip install rust_arenaclient

or alternatively build a binary from source using

cargo build --bin rust_ac_bin

Usage

Python

from rust_ac import Server

server = Server("127.0.0.1:8642")
server.run()

Binary

Currently the proxy server starts on 127.0.0.1:8642 when launched. Future updates will enable the user to specify host and port using command line arguments, after which this README will be updated.

Running a game

rust_arenaclient was made for the purpose of being part of a bigger system to run StarCraft II games. The system will interact with the rust_arenaclient through websockets and is known as a supervisor. rust_arenaclient only acts as a proxy between bots and StarCraft II. The starting of bots and creating game config is the supervisor's job. Example of an extremely basic supervisor script in Python:

import os, subprocess, asyncio, aiohttp
from rust_ac import Server

from rust_ac.match_runner import MatchRunner
from rust_ac import GameConfig


m = MatchRunner(bot_directory=r"D:\desktop backup\aiarenaclient\aiarena-client\aiarena-test-bots")
result = m.run_game(game=GameConfig('AutomatonLE', 'loser_bot', 'MicroMachine'))  # One game

games = [GameConfig('AutomatonLE', 'loser_bot', 'basic_bot') for _ in range(20)]

results = m.run_games_multiple(games=games, instances=3)  # Multiple games - Run 3 games at a time
