This is a collection of scripts we've been creating for playing Magic: The Gathering in Tabletop Simulator.

This tool takes a decklist, generates and uploads the card images to your Dropbox, and creates a JSON file that Tabletop Simulator can read to import your deck.

First of all, if you want to run these scripts, you should get a Dropbox API key by creating an app choosing the Dropbox API, choosing "App Folder", and naming your app. Get your personal API key under <appname> -> Settings -> OAuth2 -> Generated access token, copy the config_default.ini file, rename it to config.ini and place your API key in there.

Next we have a few dependencies to install. First off, you will need pipenv, instructions on how to install it are found on its site.

After installing pipenv we can use it to install the rest of our dependencies. Open your favorite command line tool to the Scryfall Tools directory and run pipenv install.

After installation we open the virtual environment through pipenv shell.

Voilà, we can now run the scripts without any ModuleNotFoundErrors!

The main entry point for all functionality is python main.py mode You can run this command with one of the modes below to create a deck.

-o

"Absolute path of the directory in which to store the generated deck"

Defaults to the output path set in config.ini, or the Scryfall Tools folder.

This argument can be specified to point the generated JSON file somewhere other than the Scryfall Tools folder. We recommend setting it to D:\Documents\My Games\Tabletop Simulator\Saves\Saved Objects, or wherever you get your Saved Objects in Tabletop Simulator.

-s

"Card image size"

Defaults to normal (488 by 680px).

This argument can be used to specify a card image size. Supported arguments are png, border_crop, art_crop, large, normal and small. Larger sizes are nicer to look at but also take longer to generate and load, and will take up more space on Dropbox.

usage: main.py decklist [-h] [-o OUT] [-s SIZE] file

"Create a TTS deck for the provided decklist file"

The file argument should be used to specify the path to the decklist file. The path can be either relative to the Scryfall Tools folder, or absolute.

# Generate a JSON file from a file named 'The Pile'..

# ..saved on Dave's desktop
>>> python main.py decklist 'C:/Users/Dave/Desktop/The Pile.txt'

# ..saved inside the Scryfall Tools folder
>>> python main.py decklist 'The Pile.txt'

usage: main.py draft [-h] [-o OUT] [-s SIZE] code

"Create a TTS deck for a draft pool from the provided set"

usage: main.py sealed [-h] [-o OUT] [-s SIZE] code

"Create a TTS deck for a sealed pool from the provided set"

The code argument should be used to specify the 3 letter code of the set for which you want to create a limited pool.

# Create a draft pool for the Ikoria set
>>> python main.py draft iko

# Create a sealed pool for Core set 2019
>>> python main.py sealed m19

usage: main.py random_commander [-h] [-o OUT] [-s SIZE] [query [query...]]

"Create a TTS deck for a random EDH commander"

Any additional arguments you pass add query specifiers to get your random commander. (*) (**)

# Generate a commander deck with a commander that..

# ..has 'instant' and/or 'sorcery' in its oracle text. 
>>> python main.py random_commander o:instant OR o:sorcery

# ..has at least Green and Blue in its color identity
>>> python main.py random_commander 'id>=gu'

# ..costs less than 0.05 tix on MTGO
>>> python main.py random_commander 'tix<0.05'

* When using query arguments that contain
