Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Image Hosting

✨ Inspiration

One of the requirements for my Yu-Gi-Oh! Discord Bot is for the user to have a source of images for the deck previews.

The admin currently hosting this bot on their server wanted to migrate from hosting images on his own server to a separate service. Considering that timing, and my curiousity to use Terraform in a project, I decided to create this project to automate the scrape, archive, and hosting of Yu-GI-Oh! card images using AWS S3 and CloudFront.

🚀 Features

• Automated AWS Infrastructure: Sets up AWS S3 for storage and CloudFront for content delivery using Terraform.
• Configurable Downloads: Allows users to customize which card images are downloaded based on date ranges and image sizes.
• Dockerized: Simplified self-hosting with Docker.
• Astro Starlight: Documentation framework.

🛠️ Technologies

• Python: Core programming language.
• SQLite3: Relational database for data storage.
• SQLAlchemy: ORM for database interaction.
• Docker/Docker Compose: Containerization and orchestration.
• Terraform: Infrastructure as Code for cloud provisioning.
• AWS S3: Object storage for archived images.
• AWS CloudFront: Content Delivery Network (CDN) for fast image delivery.

⚙️ Tooling

• uv: Fast package manager.
