Usage

import { useGetTokenMetadata } from '@0xsequence/hooks'

// Example 1: Single NFT Details
function NFTDetails({ contractAddress, tokenId }) {
  const {
    data: tokensMetadata,
    isLoading,
    isError
  } = useGetTokenMetadata({
    chainID: "1", // Ethereum mainnet
    contractAddress, 
    tokenIDs: [tokenId]
  })

  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading NFT details...</div>
  if (isError) return <div>Error loading NFT</div>

  const nft = tokensMetadata?.[0]
  if (!nft) return <div>NFT not found</div>

  return (
    <div className="nft-details">
      <img 
        src={nft.image}
        alt={nft.name}
        className="nft-image"
      />
      <div className="nft-info">
        <h1>{nft.name}</h1>
        <p>{nft.description}</p>
        
        <div className="attributes-grid">
          {nft.attributes?.map(attr => (
            <div key={attr.trait_type} className="attribute-card">
              <span className="trait-type">{attr.trait_type}</span>
              <span className="trait-value">{attr.value}</span>
              {attr.rarity && (
                <span className="trait-rarity">{attr.rarity}%</span>
              )}
            </div>
          ))}
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>

}

// Example 2: Batch NFT Collection Display
function NFTCollectionGrid({ contractAddress, tokenIds }) {
  const {
    data: tokensMetadata,
    isLoading,
    isError
  } = useGetTokenMetadata({
    chainID: "1",
    contractAddress,
    tokenIDs: tokenIds // Will automatically chunk into batches of 50
  })

  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading collection...</div>
  if (isError) return <div>Error loading collection</div>

  return (
    <div className="nft-grid">
      {tokensMetadata?.map(token => (
        <div key={token.tokenId} className="nft-tile">
          <img 
            src={token.image}
            alt={token.name}
            loading="lazy"
          />
          <div className="nft-tile-info">
            <h3>{token.name}</h3>
            {token.attributes && (
              <div className="trait-pills">
                {token.attributes.slice(0, 3).map(attr => (
                  <span key={attr.trait_type} className="trait-pill">
                    {attr.trait_type}: {attr.value}
                  </span>
                ))}
              </div>

Return Type: UseQueryResult<TokenMetadata[]>

The hook returns all properties from React Query’s UseQueryResult with token metadata. Here’s the detailed structure:

interface TokenMetadata {
    tokenId: string;
    source: string;
    name: string;
    description?: string;
    image?: string;
    video?: string;
    audio?: string;
    properties?: {
        [key: string]: any;
    };
    attributes: Array<{
        [key: string]: any;
    }>;
    image_data?: string;
    external_url?: string;
    background_color?: string;
    animation_url?: string;
    decimals?: number;
    updatedAt?: string;
    assets?: Array<Asset>;
    status: ResourceStatus;
    queuedAt?: string;
    lastFetched?: string;
}
