blackjack-python

A Python Implementation Of Blackjack

Getting started

Currently, this is not an interactive game. Creating the Table object will cause the game to run its course.

Note you need to load the logging config first if you want to see what happens under the covers.

>>> import json, logging.config
>>> logging_config = json.load(open('blackjack/conf/logging.json','r'))
>>> from blackjack import table
>>> t = table.Table()

Development

git clone https://github.com/suhasgaddam/blackjack-python.git
cd blackjack-python

It is recommended you use virtualenv as it will help manage dependencies in such a way that they will not conflict with your system-wide packages.

vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~$ virtualenv blackjack-python/
Running virtualenv with interpreter /usr/bin/python2
New python executable in blackjack-python/bin/python2
Also creating executable in blackjack-python/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pip...done.
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~$ cd blackjack-python/
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~/blackjack-python$ source bin/activate
(blackjack-python)vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~/blackjack-python$ deactivate
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~/blackjack-python$

To install the Python dependencies, run pip install -r requirements.txt.

Running tests

You can run tests via the pytest module:

(blackjack-python)vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-wily-64:~/blackjack-python$ python -m pytest blackjack/test/

TODO

• Remove numpy as a dependency in the tests - we should be able to achieve the same thing with random.randint
