Welcome

Thanks for checking out TappedOut's API

Key Concepts

CardSpec

A CardSpec is a representation of a card. Its a map, a hash, or a dict, depending on the language. It can contain information, such as image, of a specific printing, but it defaults to the latest one.

In general, where CardSpecs are returned by any API, you may passcard_fields=['attr',...'] as a GET variable to restrict the response to only those you care about.

{
    "name": "Demonic Tutor",
    "slug": "demonic-tutor",
    "image_large": "http://...",
    "tapped_url": "http://tappedout.net/mtg-card/demonic-tutor/",
    "wizards_url": "...",
}
