Since this Post got bumped - I am currently developing an Androidapp.

Current Features are:

Card Search
User Search
Users Sets
Users Friends
Users Tradelist,Whishlist & Inventory
SetView
Spoiler View of Set

Due to the fact, that I am not developing the API on my own (thanks to ToraTora at this point - I hope he is keeping his good work up! ) as well thats just a freetime project (besides of a 40 hour workweek and one day in university, and friends, and girlfriend, and sports and parties...) and I am totally new to Androiddeveloping I cannot estimate a releasedate.

I think it'll be about a month from now. late march/early april till I am able to release an app which I am satisfied with.
Currently everything works like a charm if you know how - so I really need to write a lot of code handling exceptions.
Another fact ist, that I need to implement Features like storing loaded Users/Cards/Sets to internal and external store, enable download Images only via WiFi etc.
Without those, I wouldn't want to release this app. Those last two Points freezes my mind, due to the fact that I have to read a LOT of HowTos and Tutorials before I am able to implement it properly...

I'll keep you up2date

Hey there,

just a lil thing - till now, each source of "Image" has been defined as "picture" (e.g. Users profile).

Could you please choose one? Thanks again! smile

Edit:

I am not able to visit following deck:

http://deckbox.org/sets/532625

API Link:

kind regards

Edit2:

Hey there,

just wanted to ask if you still exist tongue

Anyway, I started developing the AndroidApp today and wanted to share some Screenshot of 3 Hours developing:

A total of four Images

I know it's now yet the best design you every have seen but I'll focus on functions till now smile

Edit 3:

yet another Bug: Requesting Friends does not return all Friends -->

http://deckbox-api.herokuapp.com/api/us … 9/friends/ - shows only 3 of 4
(http://deckbox.org/users/100000520842029/friends)



Edit4:

Are you able to implement a CardSearch which will give you all Cards which contains the SearchString?

Result of the Searchstring Nicol would be both, the Creature and the Planeswalker

Edit5:
I did some research regarding the bug of friendscount.
As a result I can say, that in your own profile you see all of your friends - even these with pending friend request.
Thats not the case if you are logged out and searching for a specific users friends. Cause deckbox won't show, that a friend request is pending this confused me.

If everyone would release new Features and Bugfixes like you are, the world would be a better place big_smile

Then again, I did notice an inconsistence:

Requesting all Sets, they got a Property called Name. Requesting a specific Set its name is Property title.

Could you be so kind and change it to one? "name" is which I prefer.

Kind regards

Edit:

Are you able to get a Link to a cards picture while viewing a single set?
That would dramatically decrease my requests to enable a Spoiler view.


And j4i - a lil Screenshot of my TestTool:

Hi there,

I just coded about 2 hours, developing the business logic.

Currently I am writing all the code to serialize those Objects - 'cause of that, I noticed that searching for a special Card (e.g. Anax and Cymede) returns its type as a single string (Legendary Creature) - while looking it up in one of your sets returns a string[] (Legendary, Creature).

I would like to ask you, to change the type in a single CardRequest into a string[] (and renaming to types) as well as renaming subtype into subtypes (Single Card = subtype, Requesting Set = subtypes) - it would make it easier for me and your code would be straight up forward

Kind regards

Edit:

As well, it'll be nice, if you could add the rarity to a single cardrequest (Again as string[])

Edit2: Nevermind - I Just noticed, it's displayed in the Editions name...it's late big_smile

Hi there,

especially old cards won't loose that much of value.
So buying these is kinda investmentsafe. Just buy them if you need them wink

Hi there,

your filter seems to be buggy.

Using your example returns an internal server error which is caused by the part "{"rules":{"operator":"contains","value":"trample"}".
Without this part, filtering works perfectly and using only these parameters  returns an internal server error again.

Kind regards

Edit:

Some suggestions:

Extra Card Information would be useful - like Power/Thoughness and Abilities - and for our fellow gatherers maybe even the flavor Text/Artwork Artist.

Maybe even some cool shit like Rarity depending on different Formats.
As example:
Doom Blade has been printed common as well as uncommon - in Standard Pauper, Doom blade is currently unplayable whilst in Modern it's legal.
Perhaps you want to consider this while implementing Formats for Cards smile

Hi there,

Writing with my tablet - that's why I won't put mich effort now in writing perfect english - next time i'll be on my PC - promised big_smile

I just had a look into your API noticing one thing. If you search for a user, You habe to use his logonname not his profilname. Indeed it confused me for about 2minutes 'till noticing my profilsite is an automatic generate unqiue number while connecting deckbox to facebook. You are able to change it in your profile , so it's not that kind of a big deal. But maybe you want to document it wink

Great effort though!

Are you already building an Android APP for deckbox vor got already requests by doing so?
My Only experiences in mobile development were 2 years ago for Windows mobile phone with xaml and csharp - I already Bad a quick look Into Androiddevelopment. Xamarin seems to enable a quickstart for me as csharp developer hence gaining experience in Java as well AS Android development for a quick Start seems a lil bit troubling to me. Free Version should be enable everything we need since se won't rely in third Party libraries.

Typos, wrong words and so on are due to german autocorrect, for ans grammatical mistakes I'll beg for apologize since I always failed english in school.

Hope to read from you soon wink

Hello there,

currently I'm creating alot of EDH Decks.
Cutting right @ 100 Cards is a huge amount of work for me - thats why I am splicing my deck into certain Subsets.

As you see in my profile I've got an EDH so called "Evolve" - currently splicing into a subdirectory "Evolve" and SubDecks called "Counter", "Removal" ...

It'll be a huge benefit if I won't need to construct a deck like this.
If i would be allowed to add a SubTheme (Sorry on this one, I couldn't find a better word..) e.g. Target Instants Subtheme is now "Counter"  and Sort the Table depending on its SubTheme.

This would give me the benefit of having my whole Deck on one Screen ordererd by its Purpose.

Kind Regards

Hey there,

I wanted to suggest a new Feature.

Inventory as it is actually lacks a bit of functionality.

If I am looking through my Inventory I want to see immediately how many of my owned cards are in my used Decks and how many of them are in Proxies/Processing (...) Decks.
Currently I have to leftclick the Card and are able to see it in further Details.
In my opinion that's not comfortable enough - and seeing that much totally unused space in the Inventory I'd like to see a Feature like that comming soon.

Kind Regards
