Making a Farcaster feed of Milady owners

This guide demonstrates how to make a feed of Farcaster casts from users who own a specific NFT.

Check out this Getting started guide to learn how to set up your environment and get an API key.

Before all that, initialize Neynar client:

// npm i @neynar/nodejs-sdk
import { NeynarAPIClient, FeedType, FilterType } from "@neynar/nodejs-sdk";

// make sure to set your NEYNAR_API_KEY .env
// don't have an API key yet? get one at neynar.com
const client = new NeynarAPIClient(process.env.NEYNAR_API_KEY);

First, we need to get the addresses owning Milady. We can use the Alchemy NFT API to get the addresses of users who own the NFT.

const getAddr = async (nftAddr: string): Promise<string[]> => {
  const apiKey = process.env.ALCHEMY_API_KEY;
  const baseUrl = `https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/nft/v3/${apiKey}/getOwnersForContract?`;
  const url = `${baseUrl}contractAddress=${nftAddr}&withTokenBalances=false`;

  const result = await fetch(url, {
    headers: { accept: "application/json" },
  });
  const data = await result.json();
  return data.owners;
};

// milady maker contract address
const nftAddr = "0x5af0d9827e0c53e4799bb226655a1de152a425a5";
const addrs = await getAddr(nftAddr);

Next, get Farcaster FIDs of each address, then filter out any undefined values.

const fidLookup = async (addrs: string[]) => {
  const fids = await Promise.all(
    addrs.map(async (addr) => {
      try {
        const response = await client.lookupUserByVerification(addr);
        return response ? response.result.user.fid : undefined;
      } catch (error) {
        return undefined;
      }
    })
  );
  return fids.filter((fid) => fid !== undefined);
};

const fids = await fidLookup(addrs);

Lastly, fetch the feed using the FIDs.

const feed = await client.fetchFeed(FeedType.Filter, {
  filterType: FilterType.Fids,
  fids
});

console.log(feed);

Example output:
