  • solana-program-library

    A collection of Solana programs maintained by Solana Labs

  • metaplex-program-library

    Smart contracts maintained by the Metaplex team

  • My auction contract required doing some Metaplex metadata checks, so testing required creating an NFT just like they do in mainnet. However, your localnet doesn't come with the program deployed so you have to set that up yourself. Clone https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex-program-library and run anchor build inside the token-metadata directory. This will output a target/deploy/mpl_token_metadata.so binary that you can import into your project.

  • js

    A JavaScript SDK for interacting with Metaplex's programs

  • mocha

    ☕️ simple, flexible, fun javascript test framework for node.js & the browser

  • You should definitely write tests if you want to be a responsible coder. Anchor tests use mocha, so you should get familiar with the framework.
