scryr (version 1.0.0)

parse_cost: Parse mana costs

Description

Parses the given mana cost argument and returns Scryfall's interpretation.

Usage

parse_cost(cost)

Arguments

cost

The mana string to parse. For more information, see details.

Value

A data frame with 1 row and the following columns:

• cost [chr]: The normalized cost, with correctly-ordered and wrapped mana symbols.

• colors [list]: The colors of the given cost.

• cmc [dbl]: The converted mana cost. If you submit Un-set mana symbols, this decimal could include fractional parts.

• colorless [lgl]: Whether the cost is colorless.

• monocolored [lgl]: Whether if the cost is monocolored.

• multicolored [lgl]: Whether if the cost is multicolored.

Details

The server understands most community shorthand for mana costs (such as 2WW for {2}{W}{W}). Symbols can also be out of order, lowercase, or have multiple colorless costs (such as 2{g}2 for {4}{G}).

If part of the string could not be understood, the server will return an error describing the problem.
