NFT Collections

Ternoa indexer is a record of the Ternoa Chain data. You can query data for some specific entities (NFT, Collection, Marketplace(...)) using GraphQL. In this example, we use the graphql-request library.

Step 1: CollectionEntity query preparation

You first need to prepare a stringified query to get Collection data from a specific collection id. Here are detailed the parameters available for the CollectionEntity:

`collectionId`: The collection id.- String
`owner`: The collection owner; null if the collection is burned. - String | null
`offchainData`: The collection off-chain data (e.g. IPFS CID hash, a link, or any string). - String
`nfts`: An array of the NFT ids in the collection - String[]
`nbNfts`: The number of NFT in the collection. - Number
`limit`: The collection limit if set; null otherwise. - Number | null
`hasReachedLimit`: true if the Collection has reached its limit; false otherwise. - Boolean
`isClosed`: - Boolean flag: true if the Collection is closed; false otherwise. - Boolean
`timestampCreated`: The creation timestamp. - Date
`timestampBurned`: The burning timestamp. - Date | null
`timestampClosed`: The closing timestamp.- Date | null
`timestampLimited`: The limit setting timestamp. - Date | null

For example, if we want to get the Collection: owner / id; we have to prepare the following query by replacing COLLECTION_ID with the collection id you want to get the information from (e.g. the collection id from the Collection minted previously in "How to mint a Collection on-chain"):

{
  collectionEntity(id: "_COLLECTION_ID_") {
    owner
    collectionId
    offchainData
  }
}

Step 2: Sending the request to the Indexer

Once the query is ready, you can request our Indexer instances by providing both the indexer endpoint and the query.

Replace COLLECTION_ID in the following code snippet with the collection ID previously generated in "How to mint a Collection on-chain"):

import { request, gql } from "graphql-request";

const COLLECTION_ID = 0;
const query = (id: number) => gql`
    {
      collectionEntity(id: "${id}") {
        owner
        collectionId
        offchainData
      }
    }
`;

const getCollectionData = async () => {
	try {
		const response = await request<{ collectionEntity: CollectionType }>(
			"https://indexer-alphanet.ternoa.dev",
			query(COLLECTION_ID)
		);
		console.log(response);
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
};

type CollectionType = {
	owner: string;
	offchainData: string;
	collectionId: string;
};

The getCollectionData function is an asynchronous function that sends a GraphQL request using the request function from the "graphql-request" library. Here we are using the Ternoa Alphanet instance at "https://indexer-alphanet.ternoa.dev" with the Collection ID 0 as the query parameter (you can try with your id). The response from the server is an object with a property collectionEntity that has the data of the requested Collection entity.

The response for the collection id 0 the Alphanet Network is:

{
	"data": {
		"collectionEntity": {
			"owner": "5DoaPm79MrWUQpFSDBhpmotRp344dc9eM4NV8aRb3vHEuzxH",
			"collectionId": "0",
			"offchainData": "test"
		}
	}
}

How to retrieve the last Collection minted using Ternoa Indexer

Ternoa Indexer comes with filtering and ordering options. Instead of requesting a single CollectionEntity with a specific collection ID, you can filter all CollectionEnties:

{
  collectionEntities(orderBy: [TIMESTAMP_CREATE_DESC]) {
    nodes {
      owner
      collectionId
      timestampCreate
    }
  }
}

The NFT in the response will be ordered by creation timestamp descendent with orderBy: [TIMESTAMP_CREATE_DESC].

The response on the Alphanet Network when this document is written is:

{
  "data": {
    "collectionEntities": {
      "nodes": [
        {
          "owner": "5DZimWjGDoeEtaUJo5DaFZQdHWGBd3wHjZokDqZjCzYFEuYb",
          "collectionId": "585",
          "timestampCreate": "2023-02-22T12:17:00.001"
        },
        {
          "owner": "5DZimWjGDoeEtaUJo5DaFZQdHWGBd3wHjZokDqZjCzYFEuYb",
          "collectionId": "584",
          "timestampCreate": "2023-02-22T12:16:48.001"
        },
        ...
      ]
    }
  }
}

The last Collection minted on the Ternoa chain is collection 585.

How to retrieve a limited collection using the Ternoa Indexer

Ternoa indexer is a record of the Ternoa Chain data. You can query data for some specific entities (NFT, Collection, Marketplace(...)) using graphql. In this example, we use the graphql-request library.

You first need to prepare a stringified query to get collection data from a specific collection id, as we did in the query(id) function. Do not hesitate to adapt the information you require in your query. When the query is ready, you can request our indexer by providing both the indexer endpoint and the query. To check if the collection is limited, the limit should be set and the timestampLimit must be filled.

import { request, gql } from "graphql-request";

const COLLECTION_ID = 0;
const query = (id: number) => gql`
    {
      collectionEntity(id: "${id}") {
        collectionId
        nbNfts
        limit
        timestampLimit
      }
    }
`;

const getCollectionData = async () => {
	try {
		const response = await request<{ collectionEntity: CollectionType }>(
			"https://indexer-alphanet.ternoa.dev",
			query(COLLECTION_ID)
		);
		console.log(response);
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
};

type CollectionType = {
	collectionId: string;
	nbNfts: number;
	limit: number;
	timestampLimit: string | null;
};

How to retrieve a closed collection using Ternoa Indexer

You first need to prepare a stringified query to get collection data from a specific collection id, as we did in the query(id) function. Do not hesitate to adapt the information you require in your query. When the query is ready, you can request our indexer by providing both the indexer endpoint and the query. To check if the collection is closed, just add the isClosed andtimestampClosefields in the list.

import { request, gql } from "graphql-request";

const COLLECTION_ID = 0;
const query = (id: number) => gql`
    {
      collectionEntity(id: "${id}") {
        collectionId
        nbNfts
        isClosed
        timestampClose
      }
    }
`;

const getCollectionData = async () => {
	try {
		const response = await request<{ collectionEntity: CollectionType }>(
			"https://indexer-alphanet.ternoa.dev",
			query(COLLECTION_ID)
		);
		console.log(response);
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
};

type CollectionType = {
	collectionId: string;
	nbNfts: number;
	isClosed: boolean;
	timestampClose: string | null;
};

How to retrieve a burned collection using Ternoa Indexer

You first need to prepare a stringified query to get collection data from a specific collection id, as we did in the query(id) function. Do not hesitate to adapt the information you require in your query. When the query is ready, you can request our indexer by providing both the indexer endpoint and the query. To check if the collection is burned, the owner should be set to null, and the timestampBurn must be filled.

import { request, gql } from "graphql-request";

const COLLECTION_ID = 0;
const query = (id: number) => gql`
    {
      collectionEntity(id: "${id}") {
        collectionId
        nbNfts
        owner
        timestampBurn
      }
    }
`;

const getCollectionData = async () => {
	try {
		const response = await request<{ collectionEntity: CollectionType }>(
			"https://indexer-alphanet.ternoa.dev",
			query(COLLECTION_ID)
		);
		console.log(response);
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
};

type CollectionType = {
	collectionId: string;
	nbNfts: number;
	owner: string | null;
	timestampBurn: string | null;
};
