Creating a Collection

info

This section is under https://playground.komple.io/modules/mint/execute

After registering the Mint Module, it's time to create a collection in your project.

Select Create Collection from the dropdown and fill the following information:

  • Collection Info
  • Collection Configuration
  • Metadata Info
  • Minting Currency Info

These information will define your project and will be used to display your project in Marbu and other websites that uses the framework.

Collection Info​

Collection Type​

Each collection can be either Standard or Komple collection.

Standard Collection​

Standard collection is a collection that uses standard IPFS metadata. Every token will be tied to a single IPFS metadata.

caution

For the standard collection to work:

  • Metadata type must be set as standard
  • IPFS link must be set
tip

If we set the IPFS link as: ipfs://my-ipfs-hash

Every minted token's metadata will be saved as ipfs://my-ipfs-hash/1, ipfs://my-ipfs-hash/2, ipfs://my-ipfs-hash/3 and so on.

Komple Collection​

Komple collection is a collection that uses the Metadata Module. Metadata can be either shared or dynamic. Every token can be tied to a different metadata to suit the project's needs.

tip

A single metadata like a non-unique weapon in a game can be defined as a shared metadata to be used my multiple tokens.

Different characters in a game can be defined as dynamic metadata to be used by a single token and to be updated if needed.

Collection Name​

Name of the collection you want to create.

Collection Description​

Description of the collection you want to create.

Collection Image​

Image of the collection you want to create. This will be used as a thumbnail for your collection.

External link to your collection. This can be a link to your collection's website or any other link.

Maximum Token Limit​

This is the maximum number of tokens that can be minted in the collection. If this field is not set, there is no limit for minting.

This is the IPFS link of the collection. This will be used to store the collection's metadata.

Metadata Info​

Metadata Type​

Metadata types are a way of defining the metadata for a collection.

Based on the project's needs, metadata can be:

  • Standard
  • Shared
  • Dynamic

Check out the Metadata Module documentation for more information on different types.

caution

If you are creating a Standard Collection, you must set the metadata type as Standard.

Minting Currency Info​

This is the currency information that will be used to mint new tokens. Token type can either be Native or CW20.

caution

Once you set the token type, you can't change it later.

Native Token​

If native token type is selected, you need to enter the denom information.

Native Token

CW20 Token​

If CW20 token type is selected, you need to enter both the denom and the cw20 token contract address.

CW20 Token

After filling all the required fields, click on the Execute Mint Module button to create your first collection.

Create Collection Response

Congratulations! You have successfully created your first collection. You can see the Token Module and Metadata Module address in the response. You don't need to worry about these addresses for now. We will use them in the coming sections.
