JAVA NFT

An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a digital asset that represents ownership of a unique item or asset. NFTs are created and stored on a blockchain, which allows them to be easily bought, sold, and transferred while maintaining a verifiable record of ownership.

One example of an NFT might be a digital artwork, where each NFT represents a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art. An NFT could also represent ownership of a collectible item, such as a rare baseball card or a piece of virtual real estate.

Here is an example of how you might create an NFT in Java using the Ethereum blockchain:

import java.math.BigInteger;
import org.web3j.crypto.Credentials;
import org.web3j.crypto.RawTransaction;
import org.web3j.crypto.TransactionEncoder;
import org.web3j.protocol.Web3j;
import org.web3j.protocol.core.DefaultBlockParameterName;
import org.web3j.protocol.core.methods.request.Transaction;
import org.web3j.protocol.core.methods.response.EthSendTransaction;
import org.web3j.protocol.http.HttpService;
import org.web3j.utils.Numeric;

public class NFTExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        // Connect to the Ethereum blockchain
        Web3j web3j = Web3j.build(new HttpService());

        // Load your Ethereum wallet credentials
        Credentials credentials = Credentials.create("YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY");

        // Set the address of the smart contract that will create the NFT
        String contractAddress = "CONTRACT_ADDRESS";

        // Set the parameters for the NFT creation function in the smart contract
        String name = "My NFT";
        String symbol = "NFT";
        BigInteger totalSupply = BigInteger.valueOf(1);
        String[] metadata = {"data1", "data2", "data3"};

        // Encode the function call as ABI data
        String function = "createNFT(string,string,uint256,string[])";
        String data = FunctionEncoder.encode(function, Arrays.asList(name, symbol, totalSupply, metadata));

        // Get the current nonce (number of transactions sent by the wallet)
        BigInteger nonce = web3j.ethGetTransactionCount(
            credentials.getAddress(), DefaultBlockParameterName.LATEST).send().getTransactionCount();

        // Create the transaction
        RawTransaction rawTransaction = RawTransaction.createTransaction(
            nonce, BigInteger.valueOf(1_000_000_000_000L), BigInteger.valueOf(43_000_000_000L), contractAddress, BigInteger.ZERO, data);

        // Sign the transaction
        byte[] signedMessage = TransactionEncoder.signMessage(rawTransaction, credentials);
        String hexValue = Numeric.toHexString(signedMessage);

        // Send the transaction
        EthSendTransaction transactionResponse = web3j.ethSendRawTransaction(hexValue).send();
        String transactionHash = transactionResponse.getTransactionHash();

        // Wait for the transaction to be mined
        EthGetTransactionReceipt  = web3j.ethGetTransactionReceipt(transactionHash).send();
while (transactionReceipt.getTransactionReceipt().isEmpty()) {
Thread.sleep(1000);
transactionReceipt = web3j.ethGetTransactionReceipt(transactionHash).send();
}

    // Check the transaction receipt for success or failure
    if (transactionReceipt.getTransactionReceipt().isPresent()) {
        String contractCreationAddress = transactionReceipt.getTransactionReceipt().get().getContractAddress();
        if (contractCreationAddress != null && !contractCreationAddress.isEmpty()) {
            System.out.println("NFT contract created at: " + contractCreationAddress);
        } else {
            System.out.println("Transaction failed");
        }
    }
}

This code connects to the Ethereum blockchain, loads your wallet credentials, and calls the `createNFT` function in a smart contract with the specified parameters. It then signs and sends the transaction, waits for it to be mined, and checks the transaction receipt to see if the NFT contract was successfully created. Keep in mind that this is just one example of how you might create an NFT in Java. There are many different ways to do it, and the specific steps will depend on the blockchain and smart contract platform you are using.

Here is another short example:

import java.math.BigInteger;
import org.web3j.crypto.Credentials;
import org.web3j.protocol.Web3j;
import org.web3j.protocol.core.methods.response.EthSendTransaction;
import org.web3j.protocol.http.HttpService;

public class NFTExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        // Connect to the Ethereum blockchain
        Web3j web3j = Web3j.build(new HttpService());

        // Load your Ethereum wallet credentials
        Credentials credentials = Credentials.create("YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY");

        // Set the address of the smart contract that will create the NFT
        String contractAddress = "CONTRACT_ADDRESS";

        // Set the parameters for the NFT creation function in the smart contract
        String name = "My NFT";
        String symbol = "NFT";
        BigInteger totalSupply = BigInteger.valueOf(1);

        // Call the NFT creation function in the smart contract
        EthSendTransaction transactionResponse = web3j.ethCall(
            Transaction.createEthCallTransaction(
                credentials.getAddress(), contractAddress, "createNFT(string,string,uint256)"),
            DefaultBlockParameterName.LATEST)
            .send();

        // Check the transaction receipt for success or failure
        if (transactionResponse.getError() == null) {
            String contractCreationAddress = transactionResponse.getResult();
            if (contractCreationAddress != null && !contractCreationAddress.isEmpty()) {
                System.out.println("NFT contract created at: " + contractCreationAddress);
            } else {
                System.out.println("Transaction failed");
            }
        }
    }
}

This code connects to the Ethereum blockchain, loads your wallet credentials, and calls the createNFT function in a smart contract with the specified parameters using the ethCall method. It then checks the transaction response for success or failure.
