What can this bot do?

Up to now, this bot can:

  • get cards via Scryfall
  • get card rulings, pricing and legalities
  • store DCI numbers for each player
  • store MTG:Arena usernames to challenge your friends
  • read rss feeds from a custom list of websites and post news on your group or even a channel connected to your discussion group
  • check mtg arena server status page
  • direct link to banned and restricted official page
  • check which expansions are in standard and which are rotating
  • send a message with all the links to all your community socials

Some examples...

On the left: a basic card search. On the right, rulings search for card named "austere command"

Bot dependencies

This bot runs with:

  • peewee (a database ORM)
  • python-telegram-bot (of course)
  • scrython (python bindings to Scryfall API)
  • emoji (because emojis makes messages waay more fancy!)
  • requests and beautifulsoup4 (to fetch data from mtga server status website)

However you don't have to install all of them manually because I put everything in the requirements file! Visit the wiki if you don't know how to use it ;)

Further improvements

  • handle FNM codes automagically
  • auto sync with your LGS events posted on facebook
  • language localisation

I can't provide any ETA because I'm working on this project during my free time

Documentation

I'm trying my best to provide in-detailed documentation in the wiki section, along with install instructions, usage description and so on.
