cube-tools

This repository is meant to help parse, track, and analyze Magic: The Gathering draft results.

You can find my cube on Cube Cobra

There are a few parts to this repository:

• A Golang binary that parses various deck input formats, merges them with other metadata, and stores them for posterity.
• A very basic React site to run locally for viewing statistics compiled from the parsed deck and draft data.
• JSON formatted draft logs from applicable drafts (i.e., those done with draftmancer)
• Historical cube snapshots taken at the time of each draft.
• Replay files from Cockatrice (where applicable).

Data for each draft can be found in drafts, organized by draft-date.

Building the go tool

Build all tools with make

Parsing decks

To parse a deck:

./bin/parser -deck input.csv \
    -who player_name \
    -wins 2 \
    -losses 2 \
    -labels aggro,sacrifice \
    -date YYYY-MM-DD

To parse a directory containing multiple decks:

/bin/parser \
    -deck-dir ~/Downloads/draft/ \
    -date 2024-01-07 \
    -filetype ".txt"

The resulting files will be stored at drafts/YYYY-MM-DD/player_name.json

Adding draft logs

Each draft can optionally include a log exported from draftmancer including draft pick ordering. This is included in the UI.

Draft logs are found at drafts/YYYY-MM-DD/draft-log.json

Running the UI

Right now, the UI learns about the existence of draft data from index JSON files that are programmatically generated. To regenerate them after adding a new draft:

make index

If you haven't already, install node dependencies:

cd ui
npm install

Then, you can start the UI by running the following in the ui directory:

npm start

Cockatrice replays

Cockatrice replay files are stored in drafts/YYYY-MM-DD/replays/
