Get Metaplex Metadata

get_metaplex_metadata.ts

import * as metaplex from "@metaplex/js";
import * as web3 from "@solana/web3.js";

const connection = new web3.Connection(
  web3.clusterApiUrl("mainnet-beta"),
  "confirmed"
);

const tokenAddress = "CxkKDaBvtHqg8aHBVY8E4YYBsCfJkJVsTAEdTo5k4SEw";

(async () => {
  const metadataPDA = await metaplex.programs.metadata.Metadata.getPDA(
    tokenAddress
  );
  const mintAccInfo = await connection.getAccountInfo(metadataPDA); // fetch account info 
  const metadata = metaplex.programs.metadata.Metadata.from(
    new metaplex.Account(tokenAddress, mintAccInfo)
  );

  console.log(metadata);
})();

There is a change in the latest Metaplex version (see metaplex/js issue #129).

The code above is working for version 4.1.0.

For v4.10.1 the below code is working (but could be simplified with Metadata.load method):

import { Connection } from "@metaplex/js";
import { Account } from "@metaplex-foundation/mpl-core";
import { Metadata } from "@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata";

const connection = new Connection("mainnet-beta");
const tokenAddress = "CxkKDaBvtHqg8aHBVY8E4YYBsCfJkJVsTAEdTo5k4SEw";

const getMetadata = async () => {
  const metadataPDA = await Metadata.getPDA(tokenAdr);
  const mintAccInfo = await connection.getAccountInfo(metadataPDA);

  const {
    data: { data: metadata }
  } = Metadata.from(new Account(tokenAddress, mintAccInfo));

  console.log(metadata)
};

getMetadata();

Thanks for adding this @AWolf81!

looks like Metadata doesn't have getPDA or from methods anymore after latest updates

Is there still a way to get metadata without the getPDA method?

export const METADATA_PROGRAM_ID =  'metaqbxxUerdq28cj1RbAWkYQm3ybzjb6a8bt518x1s';

const getPDA = async (
  mint: anchor.web3.PublicKey,
): Promise<anchor.web3.PublicKey> => {
  return (
    await anchor.web3.PublicKey.findProgramAddress(
      [
        Buffer.from('metadata'),
        TOKEN_METADATA_PROGRAM_ID.toBuffer(),
        mint.toBuffer(),
      ],
      TOKEN_METADATA_PROGRAM_ID,
    )
  )[0];
};

Hopefully, this is helpful for you.
