The ERC-721 standard introduces a non-fungible token (NFT) in which each issued token is unique and distinct from others. This standard defines functions and events that enable the creation, ownership, and transfer of non-fungible assets.
{% hint style="info" %}
Note:ERC-721
Token addresses refer to full Hedera Token Service (HTS) fungible token entities. These tokens can be fully managed by HTS API calls. Additionally, by utilizing IERC721
interfaces or system contract functions, these tokens can also be managed by smart contracts on Hedera.
{% endhint %}
ownerOf
function ownerOf(uint256 _tokenId) external view returns (address)
Returns the account ID of the specified HTS token owner. The _tokenId
is the Hedera serial number of the NFT.
approve
function approve(address _approved, uint256 _tokenId) external payable
Gives the spender permission to transfer a token (_tokenId
) to another account from the owner. The approval is cleared when the token is transferred. The _tokenId
is the Hedera serial number of the NFT.
This works by creating a synthetic CryptoApproveAllowanceTransaction
with payer - the account that called the precompile (the message sender property of the message frame in the EVM).
If the spender
address is 0, this creates a CryptoDeleteAllowanceTransaction
instead and removes any allowances previously approved on the token.
Fires an approval event with the following signature when executed:
event Approval(address indexed owner, address indexed approved, uint256 indexed tokenId);
setApprovalForAll
function setApprovalForAll(address _operator, bool _approved) external
Approve or remove an operator
as an operator for the caller. Operators can call transferFrom
for any token owned by the caller.
This works by creating a synthetic CryptoApproveAllowanceTransaction
with payer - the account that called the precompile (the message sender property of the message frame in the EVM).
getApproved
function getApproved(uint256 _tokenId) external view returns (address)
Returns the account approved for the specified _tokenId
. The _tokenId
is the Hedera serial number of the NFT.
This works by loading the SPENDER
property of the token from the NFTs ledger.
isApprovedForAll
function isApprovedForAll(address _owner, address _operator) external view returns (bool)
Returns if the operator
is allowed to manage all of the assets of owner
.
This works by loading the APPROVE_FOR_ALL_NFTS_ALLOWANCES
property of the owner account and verifying if the list of approved for all accounts contains the account id of the operator
.
transferFrom
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
function transferFrom(address _from, address _to, uint256 _tokenId) external payable
{% endcode %}
Transfers a token (_tokenId
) from a Hedera account (from
) to another Hedera account (to
) in Solidity format. The _tokenId
is the Hedera serial number of the NFT.
This works by creating a synthetic CryptoTransferTransaction
with nft token transfers with the is_approval
property set to true.
name
function name() external view returns (string _name)
Returns the name of the HTS non-fungible token.
symbol
function symbol() external view returns (string _symbol)
Returns the symbol of the HTS non-fungible token.
tokenURI
function tokenURI(uint256 _tokenId) external view returns (string)
Returns the token metadata of the HTS non-fungible token. This corresponds to the NFT metadata field when minting an NFT using HTS. The _tokenId
is the Hedera serial number of the NFT.
totalSupply
function totalSupply() external view returns (uint256)
Returns the total supply of the HTS non-fungible token.
The following ERC-721 operations will not be natively supported on Hedera and will return a failure if they're called. Advanced functionality is achievable only through custom implementations within smart contracts.
safeTransferFrom
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
function safeTransferFrom(address token, address from, address to, uint256 tokenId)
{% endcode %}
tokenByIndex
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
function tokenByIndex(uint256 _index) external view returns (uint256)
{% endcode %}
tokenOfOwnerByIndex
{% code overflow="wrap" %}
function tokenOfOwnerByIndex(address _owner, uint256 _index) external view returns (uint256)
{% endcode %}
- Existing Hedera token association rules will take the place of such checks.
