# Genius Deck

## Specification

A simple web API that manages an in-memory deck of cards.

On starting the API, or after sorting, the default sort order from top to bottom is:
```
Suits: Spades > Hearts > Clubs > Diamonds
Face Values: 2 > 10 > Jack > Queen > King > Ace
```
Two of Spades is on top, Ace of Diamonds is at the bottom.

Source code location where the routes are defined: [here](https://git.fosscat.com/n8r/genius_deck/src/commit/653b309825d2f3d9687126536c70a9124fceaf3b/src/main.zig#L67)

Permitted operations are as follows:

### GET `/deal`
Takes the top card off the deck and returns it as json

### GET `/cheat`
Peaks at the top card of the deck and returns it as json

### POST `/discard`
Discards a card previously dealt

}
```

### POST `/cut`
Cuts the deck at the index provided, either as query params (`/cut?index=10`) or json
```json

  "index": 10
}
```

### POST `/rebuild`

## Running

You can navigate to [the releases](https://git.fosscat.com/n8r/genius_deck/releases) to download a prebuilt
binary for your platform, or you can run it locally yourself with Zig:

```sh
zig build run
# Or for running with params
zig build run -- -h # help menu
```

You will need to download Zig 0.13.0 from Zig's [releases page](https://ziglang.org/download/), or from your
package manager. If you use Nix flakes, a working config with direnv is already present in the repository.

### Deck Method Tests

The tests can be run with Zig by running the following command in the root of the project:

```sh
zig test src/deck.zig
```
