Mint Token in Anchor
Mint a token in Anchor using the mpl-token-metadata crate. This might not work for you if your version is < 3.0 (Example uses 3.0.2). You need to add this to enable init_if_needed to your Cargo.toml file: anchor-lang = { version = "x.xx.x", features = ["init-if-needed"] }

The given code snippet is used to mint a token in Anchor using the mpl-token-metadata crate. It creates a new token and associates it with an associated token account.
Explanation:
- The
MintToken
struct defines the accounts required for the minting process. It includes the authority account, the mint account, the metadata account, the associated token account, and various program accounts. - The
mint_token
function is the entry point for the minting process. It takes aContext<MintToken>
as an argument and returns aResult<()>
. - The
args
variable is used to configure the minting process. In this example, it specifies that 1 token should be minted and sets the authorization data toNone
. - The
authority
,metadata
,my_token_mint
,spl_token_program
,system_program
,sysvar_instructions
,token
, andspl_ata_program
variables are used to reference the respective accounts in theMintV1CpiAccounts
struct. - The
mint_cpi
variable is created using theMintV1Cpi::new
function. It takes the necessary program accounts, theMintV1CpiAccounts
struct, and theargs
as arguments. - Finally, the
mint_cpi.invoke()
function is called to invoke the minting process. This will mint the specified number of tokens and associate them with the associated token account.
Note: The code snippet assumes that the mpl-token-metadata crate is already imported and available in the project. Make sure to import the necessary dependencies and configure the Cargo.toml file accordingly.
