🐛 Root Cause:
- API was selecting non-existent columns (flavor_text, hp, type, form, weakness, retreat_cost)
- Database schema only includes columns defined in setup scripts
- Caused 'column does not exist' errors preventing cards from loading
🔧 Schema Alignment:
- Updated all SELECT statements to only use existing columns
- Removed references to flavor_text, hp, type, form, weakness, retreat_cost
- Kept all valid columns: id, name, set_name, set_code, card_number, rarity, game, mana_cost, cmc, card_type, colors, oracle_text, power, toughness, image_url, stock_image_url, current_price, market_price, scryfall_id, verified, quantity
📊 Database Status:
- 29,834 cards currently in database (MTG, Pokemon, Lorcana)
- Added sample cards for testing (Lightning Bolt, Black Lotus, Pikachu, Charizard, Mickey Mouse, Elsa)
- All filter combinations working correctly
✅ API Testing Results:
- ✅ No filters: Returns all cards with pagination
- ✅ Game filter: MTG cards returned correctly
- ✅ Search filter: Pikachu search returns 50+ variants
- ✅ Pagination: 29,834 total cards across 5,967 pages
- ✅ Filter metadata: Games, rarities, and sets populated correctly
🎯 Expected Frontend Behavior:
- Cards page should now load and display cards
- Search, filters, and infinite scroll should work properly
- No more API errors or empty card grids
The cards database is populated and the API is fully functional! 🃏✨
