#Cards. Build a Card game in minutes.

A standard 52-card deck is provided by default, but one can customize to build any deck needed. Create Bridge, BlackJack, Pocker and more...

Installation

Pull in the package through Composer.

Run composer require fust/cards

Usage

To start using the deck...

$d = new Deck;

$d->shuffle();

//deal... an array of cards
$hand1 = $d->drawHand(10);
$hand2 = $d->drawHand(10);

//draw a single card
$card = deck->draw();

//do something with card
$value = $card->value();
$suit = $card->suit();

//special card?
if($card->isFaceCard()){...}

//cards left in the deck
$deck->count(); 

When the game is over, simply reset the deck by shuffle(ing). The deck now has all the cards (including drawn).

//start a new game...
$deck->shuffle();

To customise the deck of cards (i.e. which cards are part of the deck) one can implement the CardProvider interface

class MyGameDeckProvider implements CardProvider{
    
    public function getCards(){

        //return an array of card for MyGame 
	}
}
//...
$deck = new Deck(new MyGameDeckProvider);

• Shuffleable for shuffling the cards
• CardProvider for providig cards to the deck

The current implementation doen't let putting cards back into the deck after drawing them. Shuffle resets the deck
