black.san missing when exporting from chess.com

[microprediction]

To reproduce:

See colab notebook

or

!pip install getjson
!pip install chess.com
!pip install pgn-parser
a_player = 'PinIsMightier'
from chessdotcom import get_player_games_by_month
game = get_player_games_by_month(username=a_player, year=2021,month=1).json['games'][0]
from pgn_parser import parser, pgn
games = get_player_games_by_month(username=a_player, year=2021,month=1).json['games']
game = parser.parse(games[0]['pgn'],actions=pgn.Actions())
missing = [ game.move(j+1).black.san for j in range(5) ]

Here's a workaround. Not claiming it is pretty.

import re
raw = game_raw['pgn']
def clean_chess_com_pgn(raw):
  less_raw = re.sub( "([0-9]+\.\.\.)","",raw  )
  even_less_raw = re.sub(r"({\[%clk [0-9]:[0-9]{0,2}:[0-9\.]{2,4}]\})",r"", less_raw)
  clean = even_less_raw[even_less_raw.rfind(']')+1:]
  for i in range(3):
    clean = clean.replace('  ',' ')
  return clean.strip()

This can then be sent to parser.parse
