JJC's Card Game

This is a simple card played over a series of round. Each round, players draw one card. The player with the highest card received 2 points. Players with penalty cards lose a point. First player to 21 points wins.

Installation

Make sure you have python 3.6 or higher installed, then:

pip install jjc-card-game

Play

Simply:

jjc-card-game

Then follow the on-screen rules and instructions.

Or try these more advanced options:

• jjc-card-game -d Jonathan Nicholas Austin to play a game with these three players. The -d speeds up gameplay by dealing all the cards at once.
• jjc-card-game --help to see even more options

Development

Development tools: Windows 10, PowerShell, and PyCharm.

git clone https://github.com/jonathanchukinas/card_game.git
cd card_game
pip install flit            # for build, packaging
python -m venv .venv        # create virtual environment
.venv\scripts\activate      # activate virtual environment
flit install --pth-file     # editable install 

# modify source code
jjc-card-game               # to run modified app
# repeat

deactivate                  # exit virtual environment

Running the tests

Test are written for pytest and automated by tox. They cover most of the game logic, but less than 50% of the command-line interface / ouput.

To run all the tests:

pip install tox, pytest
cd path\to\project\directory
tox

Tests will be run against all these python versions, if you have them:

• v3.6
• v3.7
• v3.8

For a faster way to run tests:

pytest

Built With

• PTable for generating pretty scorecard tables
