How to iterate over a cards from a deck?

I have a specific deck and I want to access each cards through python looping.

maybe col.decks.cids(the_deck_id),

ankitects/anki/blob/410987f0a6dacc32d9029e7801a1141b0e6ea434/pylib/anki/decks.py#L398


    return None
def setDeck(self, cids, did) -> None:
    self.col.db.execute(
        "update cards set did=?,usn=?,mod=? where id in " + ids2str(cids),
        did,
        self.col.usn(),
        intTime(),
    )
def cids(self, did: int, children: bool = False) -> List[int]:
    if not children:
        return self.col.db.list("select id from cards where did=?", did)
    dids = [did]
    for name, id in self.children(did):
        dids.append(id)
    return self.col.db.list("select id from cards where did in " + ids2str(dids))
def for_card_ids(self, cids: List[int]) -> List[int]:
    return self.col.db.list(f"select did from cards where id in {ids2str(cids)}")

you could also try something like for cid in mw.col.find_cards(f'''deck:"{thedeckname}"'''), see https://addon-docs.ankiweb.net/#/getting-started?id=the-collection

Hello, I know this is an old post but I was wondering if you were successful in doing this? I am brand new to Anki’s architecture and making add-ons, but I have a simple add-on that I’d like to make that requires me to iterate through each individual card in a deck.

Just wanted to ask here first before I made a new post. If you could point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!
