How To Use MTG Lister
The Idea
I wanted to inventory my collection on Moxfield, but everything else I tried to use for that
felt too damn slow.
I figured the easiest way to build an inventory would be to enter set code and card number.
The problem is that
Moxfield CSV format
wants the exact card name in addition to those, which is a lot more typing.
But I'm a web developer; I figured I could make it. And here it is!
Commands
The point of this is speedy entry and I find keyboard commands a lot faster than using a
mouse or touchpad,
so I built in a bunch of controls using just the keyboard.
- Set Code + [Space] + Card Number + [Enter] -
Add card
- < + [Space] + Card Number + [Enter] - Add
card, using the highlighted set code
- Scryfall search + [Enter] - Search for a
card with
Scryfall syntax
.
This is the fallback action when no other command is recognized.
When multiple results are returned, you can view the first page (only, for now) of
results and select your card.
- [Up] / [Down] arrows - Move the action
highlight list cursor.
The cursor resets to the top of the list after any other command.
- [Enter] - Add another
- F + [Enter] - Toggle Foil status
- V + [Enter] - View the card, or the search
results
- X + [Enter] - Remove the row
- < + Set Code + [Enter] - Lock to the
given set code.
e.g. "<blb" will lock to Bloomburrow. Then you can just enter the card number.
Searches will also restrict to the set (appending "set:" and the code to your search)
- < + [Enter] - Toggle Set Code Lock.
Lock or unlock the set code. If locking, will get the set code from the list
- ? + [Enter] - Open this help modal
- [Esc] - Close modals
