Hook for minting a new token to the connected wallet.

Available to use on smart contracts that implement the ERC20 or ERC223 standard.

import { useMintToken } from "@thirdweb-dev/react";

Usage

Provide your token contract as the argument.

import { useMintToken, useContract, Web3Button } from "@thirdweb-dev/react";

// Your smart contract address
const contractAddress = "{{contract_address}}";

function App() {
const { contract } = useContract(contractAddress);
const { mutateAsync: mintToken, isLoading, error } = useMintToken(contract);

if (error) {
console.error("failed to mint token", error);
}

return (
<Web3Button
contractAddress={contractAddress}
action={() =>
mintToken({
to: "{{wallet_address}}", // Use useAddress hook to get the current wallet address
amount: 10, // The amount of tokens to mint
})
}
>
Mint Token
</Web3Button>
);
}

Configuration

to

Likely, you will want to mint the token to the currently connected wallet address.

You can use the useAddress hook to get this value.

import {
useMintToken,
useContract,
Web3Button,
useAddress,
} from "@thirdweb-dev/react";

// Your smart contract address
const contractAddress = "{{contract_address}}";

function App() {
const address = useAddress();
const { contract } = useContract(contractAddress);
const { mutateAsync: mintToken, isLoading, error } = useMintToken(contract);

if (error) {
console.error("failed to mint token", error);
}

return (
<Web3Button
contractAddress={contractAddress}
action={() =>
mintToken({
to: address, // Use useAddress hook to get current wallet address
amount: 10, // The amount of tokens to mint
})
}
>
Mint Token
</Web3Button>
);
}
