Add tokens to decks #239

Open axxroytovu opened 1 year ago

axxroytovu commented 1 year ago

Some secret lair drops are almost entirely tokens, like Bitterblossom Dreams. We don't need to go back and add all of the tokens to every deck, but having a framework to allow tokens would be useful.

Do you want to mark them as [token] for sake of data entry, and for now we'll just ignore any lines with [token], but when they're supported it will all Just Work?

axxroytovu commented 1 year ago

I can do that 👍

I manually picked one of the decks from your PR and implemented [token] annotation. It gets to deck indexer, and then it gets ignored as db doesn't have tokens.

I started looking at the Hero's Path challenge deck products, which are entirely made of tokens. Do we want to support these or is this too much to change for no benefit?

Adding tokens is on a someday/maybe list, just like adding Alchemy was, so it could happen someday, but no real plans right now.

If you want you can add the data now, and it will just not be processed for now.
