What is @metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata?

@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata is an npm package that provides tools and utilities for interacting with token metadata on the Solana blockchain. It is part of the Metaplex ecosystem, which is designed to facilitate the creation, management, and trading of NFTs and other digital assets on Solana.

What are @metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata's main functionalities?

Create Metadata

This feature allows you to create a new metadata account for a token on the Solana blockchain. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `createCreateMetadataAccountV2Instruction` function to set up the necessary parameters for creating metadata.

const { createCreateMetadataAccountV2Instruction } = require('@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata');

const createMetadata = (metadataAccount, mint, mintAuthority, payer, updateAuthority, metadataData) => {
  return createCreateMetadataAccountV2Instruction({
    metadata: metadataAccount,
    mint,
    mintAuthority,
    payer,
    updateAuthority,
    metadataData,
  });
};

Update Metadata

This feature allows you to update the metadata of an existing token. The code sample shows how to use the `createUpdateMetadataAccountV2Instruction` function to update the metadata with new information.

const { createUpdateMetadataAccountV2Instruction } = require('@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata');

const updateMetadata = (metadataAccount, updateAuthority, metadataData) => {
  return createUpdateMetadataAccountV2Instruction({
    metadata: metadataAccount,
    updateAuthority,
    metadataData,
  });
};

Verify Collection

This feature allows you to verify a collection of NFTs. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `createVerifyCollectionInstruction` function to verify that a token belongs to a specific collection.

const { createVerifyCollectionInstruction } = require('@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata');

const verifyCollection = (metadataAccount, collectionAuthority, collectionMint) => {
  return createVerifyCollectionInstruction({
    metadata: metadataAccount,
    collectionAuthority,
    collectionMint,
  });
};

API Docs

Find the token-metadata API docs published here.

Installation

npm install @metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata --save

This will use the new auto-generated API. If you want to use the old deprecated API, you can use the following:

npm install @metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata@^1.2 --save

Alternatively, if you'd like to start using the new API but still have access to the deprecated one, you may use the following:

npm install @metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata@~2.0 --save

And use the deprecated API explicitly like so:

import { deprecated } from "@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata";

Developing

In order to update the generated SDK when the rust contract was updated please run:

yarn api:gen

and then update the wrapper code and tests.
