IPFS
OKcontract integrates with IPFS decentralized data storage system, that is frequently used to store NFT JPEGs (or PNGs or any image format).
OKcontract makes uploading images from the platform to the decentralized data storage system smooth.
Image upload components allows to:
- Upload an image file while creating NFT minting widgets
- Upload banners that will be displayed on the Wallet Connect screens
- Upload images directly from a our custom made widget: Upload data to blochain
How it works?
If your image is already stored on IPFS you can copy the IPFS link in the image field.
Lighthouse.storage pinning service
OKcontract integrates with Lighthouse.storage, a service that pins (uploads and keeps stored) images on IPFS.
OKcontract users can connect to Lighthouse directly from the OKcontract platform to pin images on IPFS.
Step 1: Connect to Lighthouse
Your Web3 wallet will request your signature to connect to Lighthouse.storage.
Step 2: Upload image
Once connected, you can choose and upload an image from your computer to IPFS.
Step 3: Image thumb and link to IPFS
Once uploaded, you will see the image thumb as well as a link to the IPFS page, that your can bookmark if you need to find it later. You can change or remove the image.
The image will appear in the Preview as well.
