An open source (eventually) online word puzzle game, inspired (in name and clean design) by lichess.
liwords uses the Flask framework with the Jinja2 template engine and dataset as a wrapper for the SQLite database.

A list of acceptable words needs to be imported into the database using the following command:
python import_words.py -w <wordlist>
Using this list, puzzles have to be generated by the generator:
python generate_puzzle.py -h
usage: generate_puzzle.py [-h] [-c Cmd] [-g Size] [--min Val] [--max Val]
[--amount Val] [--big-word Length] [-v]
python generate_puzzle.py --min 15 --max 25 --amount 1024 --big-word 6 --verbose
The lang.json file contains all the words that appear on the web interface.
When the server is started, it takes an argument, that specifies the language file location.
This value is lang.json by default.
To start the server, use the following command:
python ./server.py [<lang_file>]
The server runs on port 5000 by default. This will be configurable in later releases.
