Using candy machine ui elements in angular

[mmjp-rusty]

I tend to work in angular. It's a preference, but also superior. ;)

Anyway, I'd like to make use of

candy-machine-ui/src/candy-machine.ts
and maybe
candy-machine-ui/src/utils.ts

Can I just toss this at the top of them, and drop them in my source dir?

Is there anything else I would need?

Is there a better way? It'd be nice if those more general purpose scripts were in a separate npm module.

Also, what's the best way to atomically mint, and verify collection? If I'm hosting a mint for say 10,000 NFTs and if that mint is kind of expected to be open ended for a while, I'd like mints to be verified as they are minted, rather than doing say a batch sign of all mints once we've sold out.

Follow up here, is it possible to create the candy machine without uploading assets if using hidden settings?

I appreciate the value add for people who don't want to manage their own metadata hosting, but in my case, I'd like to manage the web hosting and off chain metadata/media hosting independent of defining the on chain collection if that's possible.

:(

    if (!Object.values(StorageType).includes(storage)) {
      throw new Error(
        `Storage option must either be ${Object.values(StorageType).join(
          ', ',
        )}. Got: ${storage}`,
      );
    }

If I set to airwave but don't actually include any assets, and have hidden settings set, will it still try to upload?

Looks like it fails on uploadV2 if there are no supported files.

const dirname = path.dirname(files[0]);

I think what I'm looking for is a candy-machine-v2-cli.ts programCommand that just invokes

const res = await createCandyMachineV2(

Without the uploadV2 wrapper.

I can try and add such an operation, but at this point , I'm in the realm of, should I just create my own mint proxy program.

I'm mostly just looking for grouping. I came to solana expecting to find an easy ERC721 equiv and found, pleasantly at first, that tokens were supported natively and programs were re-usable.

But then it became clear very quickly that the concept of NFT "collections" was oddly omitted form the native token program.

Metaplex offers a lot of value, but if all I want is a way to ensure that I can identify the result of all "mint" operations on my site, as being verifiably part of my collection, it feels like a bit overweight for that purpose.

As far as I can tell though, shy of minting through a program proxy like candy machine, there is no way to be able to verify, atomically, from time of mint, the authenticity of a mint's collection membership.

Is there a simpler, single, atomic, lower level program operation I can call from maybe token metadata that just wraps the mint function with the metadata, collection set & verify call, that I could use instead of the candy-machine-v2-cli ?

I really just need tokens allocated with a verified collection association established atomically at time of mint.

Would the team be open to something like this?

#2171

e.g.

ts-node ~/metaplex/js/packages/cli/src/candy-machine-v2-cli.ts init_empty_machine -e devnet -k {pathTo}/keypair.json -cp config.json -c {collectionName} --symbol {symbol}--seller-fee-basis-points {basisPoints} --creators-delimited "{wallet1Of2},true,50;{wallet2Of2},true,50;"
