Hearthstone-Search

Hearthstone search parser in the style of Scryfall syntax

Created simple webpage to query Hearthstone cards with advanced queries. Parser is configurable with alternate keyword (text or t) and compound keywords (is: search type, race, and spell school). Syntax based on Scryfall using keyword:query format (text:draw) https://scryfall.com/docs/syntax. Hearthstone data from https://hearthstonejson.com/

Card Search

Card search is case-insensitive and search will satisfy all parameters.

Card Name / Text / Type / Hero / Rarity

Name is search by default. Many common terms has shortcuts.

ogre t:"wrong enemy" is:minion class:neutral r:common
Neutral Common Minion where name includes ogre and text includes "wrong enemy"

Cost / Attack / Health

Can search with numeric operators (<, >, <=, >=)

c<=4 atk>2 hp<3
Cards with cost 4 or more, attack more than 4 and hp less than 4

Shortcut

Syntax includes shortcuts for common terms

is: type or race or spell school or rarity
tag: mechanics or referenced tags

Negative Condition

All keywords can be negated by prefixing them with hyphen -. This inverts the search to reject cards that matched search

-t:draw is:minion
Minions without draw in text

Regular Expression

Supports regular expression in search parameter

t:/draw \d/
Cards Text includes Draw # 

Exact Names

If you prefix search parameter with ! you will find cards with exact name only (This is still case-insensitive).

!Octosari
the Card Octosari

!"Boulderfist Ogre"
the Card Boulderfist Ogre

OR condition

By default every search term is combined. All must match to find card. If you want to search over a set of options, you can use special keyword or/OR or comma , between terms.

t:draw or t:discover 
t:draw, discover
Both will get cards with text including draw or discover

Nesting

Can nest condition inside parentheses ( ) to group together. This is most useful when combined the OR keyword

r:legendary (is:undead or is:murloc)
Legendary undead or murloc
