Deck of Cards

Create a shuffled deck, draw six cards, and inspect the deck identifier, each card, and the remaining total.

Current public response

Load six cards from a new deck. Read deck_id, cards, and remaining together: this button creates another deck on every run.

What the response contains

Create a shuffled deck, draw six cards, and inspect the deck identifier, each card, and the remaining total.

Use the response for tests, prototypes, and study. The documentation says decks without activity for two weeks are discarded; do not treat this call as proof of a drawing, fair play, or a result with real value.

Fields worth checking

  • deck_id: deck identifier
  • cards: code, value, and suit
  • remaining: cards left

What arrives in the response

The shortcut used here creates a new deck and draws six cards in one call. The observed response includes deck_id, the cards list, and remaining. On a card, code combines value and suit, value describes the value, suit names the suit, and image points to an image supplied by the service.

  • deck_id identifies the deck created for that response.
  • cards is the list of drawn cards, not the whole deck.
  • remaining falls as cards are drawn from that deck_id.

New deck or continuation

This page button uses new in the route, so every run creates another shuffled deck before drawing cards. To continue a deck, the documentation uses /api/deck/{deck_id}/draw/?count=2 with the received identifier. Do not confuse the two flows while testing a game.

  • The route with new is useful for an independent demonstration.
  • Keep deck_id only when your own flow needs to continue the same deck.
  • The documentation says a deck without activity for two weeks is discarded.

What the response does not prove

The API organizes cards for tests, prototypes, and exercises. It does not record game rules, participants, stakes, or a complete sequence of decisions. For drawings, competitions, or a result with real consequences, define your own rules, record, and verification.

  • Do not use one response as proof of fair play or an official drawing.
  • A card image shows the returned item, not a whole game.
  • Read the official documentation before using shuffle, pile, or return-card routes.
