Welcome to MyNFTProject 👋

An ERC-721 smart contract template for creating non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with limited supply and storage off-chain.

Install

1. Go to the project directory.

cd /projectdirectory

2. Install the project.

npm install

3. Install babel-register.

npm install babel-register

Deploy on a local blockchain

1. Start Ganache in a terminal window.

ganache-cli

2. Open a new terminal window and compile the contract to run on your local blockchain.

truffle migrate --reset --network development

3. Start Truffle console.

truffle console

4. Run tests. Example:

test ./test/test.js

Other test files are located in the 'test' folder.

5. To test a single function, create an instance of the contract and run the function.

let instance = await MyNFTProject.deployed()
instance.name()

Note: JS test files are designed to run individually, rather than all at once. Each file is focused on a specific area:

• test.js - minting
• test2.js - ownership
• test3.js - supply
• test4.js - state variables
• test5.js - balances
• test_oz.js - functions and events from OpenZeppelin standard contracts

Deploy on the testnet Rinkeby

1. To connect to the Ethereum network using a testnet like Rinkeby, you'll need an API from a provider like Infura.io. Enter the API key in the ENV file where noted.

2. When using this smart contract for artwork, you'll need a storage solution like that offered on IPFS (example: Pinata.cloud), to store your image files and your image metadata files. Enter your metadata CID in the ENV file where noted.

3. The owner of the contract will also need a wallet with test ETH. Use a faucet like that offered by Chainlink to receive test ETH: https://faucets.chain.link/

4. Enter the private key of the contract owner's wallet in the ENV file where noted.

5. Change the ENV filename to: .env

⚠️ Important: Do NOT share private key information. Do NOT upload your .env file to Github with private key information.

6. Update the project name and symbol in the file: contracts/MyNFTProject.sol

7. If you have changed the contract name, update the contract name in the file: migrations/2_mynftproject.js

8. Deploy to Rinkeby.

truffle migrate --reset --network rinkeby

9. To deploy to another testnet, you'll have to update the truffle-config.js file with the appropriate testnet information.
