Create a Project

Learn how to create a Myria project.

Projects Overview

When building on Myria, projects are the highest component in the hierarchy. Assets belong to a collection, and collections belong to a project. One project can have multiple collections

Once you've registered a developer account, creating your project is the next step. After you've created a project, you can add collections to that project, and then assets to that collection.

Creating projects

Prerequisites

• Generate a Web3 public key and Stark Key, and register your developer account entity as described in the quickstart

Project creation flow

The basic project creation flow is:

1. Run a script to create a project
2. Myria will attempt to create a project based on the data provided:
   • If the Stark Key is registered on Myria and project details are valid, a project is created
   • If the Stark Key isn't registered on Myria or project details are invalid, the request fails

Limitations

The following are known limitations for all projects:

• To create a project, you need to register a Myria developer account with your Stark Key. Otherwise, Myria won't be able to identify you in its system.
• You can add a limited number of collections to your project each month. For more details, check collection limitations.

Implementation

Prerequisites

• Basic Javascript and Typescript knowledge
• Web IDE such as VS Code
• Latest NodeJs

Example

info

You can find the full implementation of this code sample in the myria-ts-samples repository.

You can create a new Myria project as follows:

1. Create an empty directory on your local machine. Then, open it in VS Code or your favorite Web IDE:

mkdir myria-samples

2. Set up package.json:

yarn

yarn init

npm

npm init

3. Install dependencies:

yarn

yarn add -D typescript @types/node ts-node myria-core-sdk @starkware-industries/starkware-crypto-utils

npm

npm i --save-dev typescript @types/node ts-node myria-core-sdk @starkware-industries/starkware-crypto-utils

4. Generate tsconfig.json:

yarn

tsc --init

npm

tsc --init

5. Create the create-project.ts file in the above project and paste this code:

Typescript

import { ProjectManager, CreateProjectParams, ProjectResponse, EnvTypes } from "myria-core-sdk";

(async (): Promise<void> => {
  // define the environment: STAGING or PRODUCTION
  const env = EnvTypes.STAGING;

  // get access to the `ProjectManager`
  const projectManager: ProjectManager = new ProjectManager(env);

  // define params
  const params: CreateProjectParams = {
    name: "PROJECT_NAME",
    companyName: "COMPANY_NAME",
    contactEmail: "COMPANY_EMAIL",
    starkKey: "STARK_KEY",
  };

  // create a project
  const newProjectResponse: ProjectResponse | undefined = 
    await projectManager.createProject(params);

  // log the result
  console.log(JSON.stringify(newProjectResponse, null, 2));
})();

Replace the createProject arguments as follows:

• PROJECT_NAME - the project name
• COMPANY_NAME - the company name of the project
• CONTACT_EMAIL - the contact email of the project
• STARK_KEY - Stark Key, has to start with 0x

6. Add a script to load the create-project.ts file in package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "create-project": "ts-node create-project.ts"
  },
}

7. Run the create-project script:

npm run create-project

If you create a project successfully, you will see the response that looks as follows:

{
  "id": 10,
  "createdAt": "2022-07-06T06:05:09.697Z",
  "updatedAt": "2022-07-06T06:05:09.697Z",
  "name": "Test Game",
  "companyName": "Gaming Studio X",
  "contactEmail": "test@gamestudiox.com",
  "collectionLimitExpiresAt": null,
  "collectionMonthlyLimit": 5,
  "collectionRemaining": 5,
  "mintLimitExpiresAt": null,
  "mintMonthlyLimit": 50000,
  "mintRemaining": 50000,
  "publicId": "29aefbd7-44fa-4e40-a4e0-8253ee21bfba",
  "__entity": "ProjectEntity"
}

Make sure to write down your project id and publicId. You will need those values later.

Next steps

Now that you have a Myria project, you can create your first collection.

info

Please note, in the Staging environment you can create five collections and 50,000 mint transactions per collection per month. If you want to create collections for your project on the Production environment, or you need to increase those limits, please contact our team. Be sure to include your project id in the request message.
