Mint an NFT

Now that we have a deployed contract, we can mint an NFT.

info

This document assumes you have followed the deploy a contract instructions and have a contract address for minting NFTs.

Load the contract

Use the loadContract method to assign the contract to a variable.

Add the deployed contract address.

const existing = await sdk.loadContract({
  template: TEMPLATES.ERC721Mintable,
  contractAddress: "<CONTRACT_ADDRESS>",
});
console.log(`Contract address is: ${existing.contractAddress}`);

Mint an NFT

Include the tokenURI in the mint method.

info

Like contractURI, the tokenURI must resolve to a public, hosted, well-formed json file.

Call the mint method.

const mint1 = await existing.mint({
  publicAddress: process.env.WALLET_PUBLIC_ADDRESS,
  tokenURI:
    "https://bafybeiebu2p6locm37kt2yqybpk6cw5kih5dytnfm3mkh7h7auuksbtx5i.ipfs.infura-ipfs.io/",
});
const minted = await mint1.wait();
console.log(
  `Status: ${minted.status}\n NFT minted on ${minted.blockHash} with ${minted.confirmations} confirmation!`,
);

Example output:

Contract address is: 0x0300F3F929B558e84107B67e3FbBe9e897daDB5a
Status: 1
 NFT minted on 0x3df8bf019a2d38f71173a1c7d94ab1f70ffa13a411b311e9054c55fd3e35c00a with 1 confirmation!
