dr4ft Discord

dr4ft is a NodeJS based web-application that simulates draft and sealed format between players and/or bots. Most of MTG sets are playable thanks to MTGJson support. We follow as much as possible the rules that determine how a real booster is created.

The application provides the following features:

  • Draft and Sealed format
  • Regular, Cube and Chaos game types
  • Special game modes like "Glimpse Draft" or "Decadent"
  • 1 to 100 players
  • 1 to 12 packs per player
  • All playable sets ever printed
  • Import your custom set and play it
  • In-game chat
  • Pick Timer
  • Autopick
  • Suggest lands
  • Kick players
  • Connection indicators
  • Pick confirmation
  • Grid and column view
  • Card sorting by rarity, type, color or mana cost
  • Bots
  • Notifications when a pack is available
  • API to create and manage a game remotely. More docs here
  • Accurate Booster generation rules from @taw's magic-sealed-data
  • Allow several picks per pack
  • Download draft logs for analysis
  • Export your deck to various other apps
  • Generate deck hashes for competitive play

Technologies

dr4ft is written in ES6 and transpiled with Webpack and Babel, and uses React on the client-side. The application uses SocketIO and the Websocket technology between client and server.

Development Notes

VSCode

You can debug this application by adding the following configuration to your launch.json:

{
  "name": "Launch via NPM",
  "type": "node",
  "request": "launch",
  "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
  "runtimeExecutable": "npm",
  "runtimeArgs": [
      "run", "start-debug"
  ],
  "port": 1338
}

You should now be able to set breakpoints in backend/ and hit them when you start the debugger. This relies on the --inspect-brk=1338 flag to open port 1338 for the debugger to attach to.

Breakpoints for the frontend should be set in your browser console.
