Description
Consider using the YGOProDeck API as an alternative to the Yugioh Wiki for updating the cards in the DB for https://github.com/SalvationDevelopment/YGO_DB/blob/master/scraper/Wiki_scraper.js
The benefits of this include:
- Access to an API call that sends multiple cards matching a query. This means getting every single card in the game all in one request, especially packs and cards legal for Speed Duel.
- A consistent formatting that makes our lives easier, rather than having to think of every kind of template that the inconsistent Wikia uses
- Pre-release cards follow the ID conventions set by the pre-script repository
Issues to consider:
- Dates aren't provided
- Pack information not provided for pre-release cards
- Only English and French languages available
- Konami IDs not provided
Either we'll need to request for these missing features from the YGOProDeck's developers, or we'll still need a scraper to obtain the missing information from another source. Regardless, the bulk of the information that we need is available from YGOProDeck.
