Upload metadata directory to IPFS

post https://api.nftport.xyz/v0/metadata/directory

Uploads an array of JSON files containing NFT metadata to IPFS.
The output is an IPFS URI of a directory containing the uploaded JSON files. The IPFS URI of this directory will be used as the base_uri in Collection contract.

IPFS is an industry standard for decentralized storage and guarantees the immutability of your metadata. For the file_url, we also recommend using IPFS with Upload a file to IPFS.
We use nft.storage to pin the files with Filecoin, which ensures that your important data is retained in IPFS.

Supports only files with MIME type as application/json.

Maximum number of files that can be uploaded together is 25,000 and maximum total file size is 50MB

Note:

All metadata files must be uploaded at once since IPFS creates a unique immutable hash of all files in the directory.

To work with Collection contracts, the filenames should be token IDs starting from 0.

The file extension will be removed and only the filename will be retained in the IPFS directory (eg: '4521.json' will become '4521' on IPFS).

All files will be placed at the base of the directory.

Useful for:

Uploading a directory of metadata files to IPFS.
