How to create an opening repertoire

How to create an opening repertoire¶

A simple but powerful workflow is the following.

Fetch the games you have played, in e.g. the last week, extract the openings, and export them as anki cards in csv format:

chessli openings ankify --since last-week

Open up anki and import the csv file.
Learn your openings with the Chessli Openings anki cards. (Click here relevant tutorial section on how to use the anki cards)

Note: The next time you ankify your openings, you can type:

chessli openings ankify --since last-time

or just

chessli openings ankify

(chessli will use --since last-time per default). This way you always fetch the newly played games.

You can get a nice overview of your known openings with:

chessli openings ls

Check

chessli openings ls --help

to get to know all the customization options.

For example,

chessli openings ls --eco D

will show only those of your openings that belong to the ECO Volume D, which are closed games and semi-closed games.

There are a lot more options you can choose from, type:

chessli openings --help

to get an overview about all possible customization options.
