Create Spore Within Cluster

Background knowledge

Cluster is like an on-chain folder that groups spores together. In this recipe, you will learn how to create a spore within a cluster given that it can be unlocked by you.

Your target cluster can be either a public cluster or a private cluster, depending on the its lock script.

Private Cluster - In the case of a private cluster, it can be unlocked using your signature, if you possess the private key paired with that cluster's lock script.
Public Cluster - In contrast, a public cluster doesn't require a signature to unlock. In this case, anyone can unlock it, including you.

Create a Spore Within a Cluster

You can create a spore within a cluster by specifying the data.clusterId when calling the createSpore API from spore-sdk:

import { createSpore } from '@spore-sdk/core';

let { txSkeleton } = await createSpore({
  data: {
    contentType: CONTENT_MIME_TYPE,
    content: CONTENT_AS_BYTES,
    clusterId: CLUSTER_ID,
  },
  toLock: OWNER_LOCK,
  fromInfos: [OWNER_ADDRESS],
});

data.clusterId - The ID of the cluster where the spore intends to be created. The cluster's ID is equivalent to the type script args of the cluster.
