Home * Chess * Chess Query Language
The Chess Query Language (CQL) is a structured query language to search for games, problems, and studies that match specific themes from a collection in Portable Game Notation. CQL was developed by Gady Costeff and Lewis Stiller. It is Copyright (c) 2003-2021 and is free. The current version is 6.1 and the documentation and download of the executable can be found on the website of Gady Costeff [1].
Sample query
;; look for positions where a rook circles in a 4x3 rectangle
;; we use the rectangle g2, d2, d6, g6 together with shift and flip
;;
(match :pgn input.pgn
:output output.pgn
:forany piece [Rr]
(position
$piece[g2]
:and (
(position :gappedsequence ((position :movefrom $piece[g6,d2] :moveto ?g2)))
(position :gappedsequence ((position :movefrom $piece[d6,g2] :moveto ?d2)))
(position :gappedsequence ((position :movefrom $piece[d6,g2] :moveto ?g6)))
(position :gappedsequence ((position :movefrom $piece[g6,d2] :moveto ?d6)))
)
:shift
:flip
)
