Create Collection

You can Create NFT Collection with Rarible Multichain Protocol in different blockchains.

Before start, install and configure Rarible SDK and required wallets.

Create collection

Use createCollection function:

import { createRaribleSdk } from "@rarible/sdk"
import type { BlockchainWallet } from "@rarible/sdk-wallet/src"
import type { CreateCollectionRequest } from "@rarible/sdk/src/types/nft/deploy/domain"

async function createCollection(wallet: BlockchainWallet, collectionRequest: CreateCollectionRequest) {
	const sdk = createRaribleSdk(wallet, "dev")
	const result = await sdk.nft.createCollection(collectionRequest)
	await result.tx.wait()
	return result.address
}

Depending on blockchain type, in collectionRequest should pass the following parameters:

Ethereum

const ethereumRequest: CreateCollectionRequest = {
  blockchain: Blockchain.ETHEREUM,
  asset: {
    assetType: "ERC721",
    arguments: {
      name: "name",
      symbol: "RARI",
      baseURI: "https://ipfs.rarible.com",
      contractURI: "https://ipfs.rarible.com",
      isUserToken: false,
    },
  },
}

Tezos

const tezosRequest: CreateCollectionRequest = {
  blockchain: Blockchain.TEZOS,
  asset: {
    assetType: "NFT",
    arguments: {
      name: "My NFT collection",
      symbol: "MYNFT",
      contractURI: "https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmTKxwnqqxTxH4HE3UVM9yoJFZgbsZ8CuqqRFZCSWBF53m",
      isUserToken: false,
    },
  },
}

• blockchain — blockchain type: ETHEREUM or TEZOS
• assetType — NFT collection type: ERC721 or ERC1155 for ETHEREUM, NFT or MT for TEZOS
• name — name of the collection
• symbol — symbol of the collection
• baseURI — prefix of the result of the tokenURI call
• contractURI — URI meta of the entire collection
• isUserToken — privat (true) or public (false) collection

Checking created collection

To check the created collection:

• Use the getCollectionById API method

  ??? note "getCollectionById"

    Returns collection by address.
    
    `https://api.rarible.org/v0.1/collections/{collection}`
    
    **Example request (staging)**
    
    ```shell
    curl --request GET 'https://api-staging.rarible.org/v0.1/collections/all?blockchains=ETHEREUM&size=3'
    ```
    
    **Example response (status 200)**
