This repository provides guides and scripts to batch mint, transfer and update Algorand NFTs using Python. All these scripts and guides are written in my spare time and come with no warranty whatsoever of any kind. Always run things on the testnet first, and it is strongly recommended to refer to the official Algorand documentations beforehand: https://developer.algorand.org/docs/features/asa/

If you do not already have Python installed, install python using Anaconda: https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual. Installing just Miniconda is fine as we will not need the other packages. Alternatively if you're going to use Visual Studio Code (see next step), downloading and installing python from https://www.python.org/downloads/ is also possible.
We will use a Python IDE to update and run the scripts. Although if you develop in multiple languages https://code.visualstudio.com/ is a great alternative. Spyder can be installed by opening the anaconda terminal and running the following:
conda install spyder
This pipeline requires some dependencies which have to be installed prior to running.
They can be installed using PIP, by opening your terminal and running the following:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
In order to adjust the scripts to your needs, it's necessary to create a settings.yaml
. To do so rename the existing example.settings.yaml
by deleting ".example".
Two settings in there are shared between all scripts:
testnet: true
default_output_folder: "output"
It's recommended to use testnet in the beginning.Testnet algos can be acquired here: https://bank.testnet.algorand.network/. If you're sure everything works as expected you can set:
testnet: false
The output folder for all scripts will be per default included in this folder. If you wish for your output to be generated somewhere else you can adjust that settings accordingly:
default_output_folder: "c:/somewhere/here"
For more information on how to setup each script look at the given examples in your settings.yaml
or the README.md of the corresponding script. You'll only need to setup scripts you're going to use.
Finally you can check validity of your settings.yaml
with http://www.yamllint.com/. Note also that it's necessary to use forward slashes /
instead of backslashes in all path configurations.
