Source-based practical guide

Set up Holaplex for local development

Install the project dependencies, configure its documented environment values, and start the development server.

Before you start

  • Yarn
  • An available local port
  • A Solana endpoint setting; the README lists mainnet and devnet options

Steps

  1. Install dependencies with yarn install.

  2. Optionally create .env.local with the documented Solana endpoint and other listed environment overrides.

  3. Start the development server with PORT=3001 yarn dev, replacing 3001 with an available port.

  4. Open http://localhost:3001 in a browser.

Expected outcome

The README’s local development server is available in a browser on the chosen port.

Guide limitations

  • These are repository setup instructions, not a verified execution result.
  • The documented endpoint options are Solana mainnet and devnet; compatibility with other networks is not established.

Add a generated GraphQL query hook

Define a query against available indexer data, generate its TypeScript types and React hook, and use the hook in a component.

Before you start

  • The Holaplex repository and its GraphQL query specifications
  • Available data described in the Holaplex documentation

Steps

  1. Build a query using data available from the indexer.

  2. Save the query as a new .graphql file in the query specifications location.

  3. Run yarn generate:graphql to generate the TypeScript types and hook.

  4. Use the generated hook in a React component, following the query example in indexerTypes.ts.

Expected outcome

A generated, typed React hook for the newly specified indexer query.

Guide limitations

  • The README points to Holaplex’s documentation for available indexer data; a query can only use data available there.
  • The instructions describe the development workflow and are not a verified execution result.
