Setup

1. Install Depedencies

    npm install

Deploy the contract on Rinkeby Test Network using Alchemy as Node Provider

1. Create a file by name .env inside the root directory of this project (if not already created by the contract deploy script). Paste the following lines inside this .env file

ALCHEMY_API_KEY = 'YOUR_ALCHEMY_API_KEY"
WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY = 'YOUR_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY'

2. Replace YOUR_ALCHEMY_API_KEY with API key (use the full Alchemy URL) created using Alchemy

3. Replace YOUR_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY with private key obtained by following these steps

   1. Click on metamask plugin icon in the browser
   2. Select Account details
   3. Click Export Private Key button and confirm your password

4. Run the following command to deploy faucet on rinkeby network

   npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network rinkeby

5. The deployed contract address will be printed to console and will also be automatically be copied to the abis folder in src directory.

Generating the images

• warriors-generator folder contains the Node.js script to generate the ~2.2K warriors images

cd warriors-generator
npm install
mkdir images
node ./index.js images

Uploading to IPFS

• Upload the generated images directory to Pinata.
• Generate metadata for each image.

cd warriors-generator
mkdir metadata
node ./index.js metadata <images-directory-ipfs-url-here>

• Upload the metadata directory to Pinata and get the directory hash. Let's call it METADATA_DIR_HASH.
• Once the contract is deployed you can call the setBaseURI() function with this parameter - https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/{METADATA_DIR_HASH}/
• Now your NFTs will automatically get an image and metadata assigned on minting.
