Configure your environment
Run local node
anvil
Set environnement variable
- Url of the local node
export RPC_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8545 - Private key of the ethereum account
export PRIVATE_KEY=<PRIVATE_KEY_TEST>This private key will be use to deploy the contract
Implement a basic NFT
Deployment
Deploy your NFT contract
- Template
forge create NFT --rpc-url=$RPC_URL --private-key=$PRIVATE_KEY --constructor-args <name> <symbol>
- Full command
forge create NFT --rpc-url=$RPC_URL --private-key=$PRIVATE_KEY --constructor-args Bitcoin BTC
- Result
Minting
export CONTRACT_ADDRESS=0x5FbDB2315678afecb367f032d93F642f64180aa3
export RECIPIENT_ADDRESS=0x70997970c51812dc3a010c7d01b50e0d17dc79c8
- Minting from your contract
cast send --rpc-url=$RPC_URL $CONTRACT_ADDRESS "mintTo(address)" $RECIPIENT_ADDRESS --private-key=$PRIVATE_KEY
- Check the owner of the created NFT
cast call --rpc-url=$RPC_URL --private-key=$PRIVATE_KEY $CONTRACT_ADDRESS "ownerOf(uint256)" 1
- Result
