What's in Standard?

What's in Standard? is a simple reference page made to help new (or not new) Magic: The Gathering players easily check which sets are currently in Standard, see when the next rotation is going to happen, and understand how rotations work.

Development

Running it locally

git clone git@github.com:glacials/whatsinstandard
cd whatsinstandard

# OS X
open index.html

# Linux
xdg-open index.html

You shouldn't need to serve the files from any sort of web server. Opening index.html in a browser should work just fine.

Tests

The API has a few tests. You can run them with

npm install
npm test

To autorun them whenever test files update, use

npm run autotest

API

We've got an API. It's super slim and the output is written by hand but it works like a charm.

/api/4/sets.json

This is the only API call we have. It returns a JSON array of sets which looks something like this:

[
  {
    "name": "Battle for Zendikar",
    "block": "Battle for Zendikar",
    "code": "BFZ",
    "enter_date": "2015-10-02T00:00:00.000Z",
    "exit_date": "2017-04-28T00:00:00.000Z",
    "rough_exit_date": "Q2 2017"
  },
  ...
]

The array is guaranteed to contain all sets currently in Standard plus the next two to three unreleased sets.

For API details see the API readme.
