Taquito Ledger Signer package

Documentation can be found here
TypeDoc style documentation is available here

General Information

@taquito/ledger-signer is an npm package that provides developers with ledger signing functionality for Taquito. It implements the Signer interface of Taquito, allowing you to sign operations from a Ledger Nano device.

Install

Install the package as follows

npm install @taquito/ledger-signer

Usage

Prerequisites

To use the Ledger Signer we must first import the desired transport from the LedgerJs library.

The Ledger Signer has currently been tested with @ledgerhq/hw-transport-node-hid for Node-based applications and with @ledgerhq/hw-transport-webhid for web applications.

Pass an instance of the transport of your choice to the Ledger Signer as follows:

import transportWeb from '@ledgerhq/hw-transport-webhid';
import { LedgerSigner } from '@taquito/ledger-signer';

const transport = await transportWeb.create();
const ledgerSigner = new LedgerSigner(transport);

The constructor of the LedgerSigner class takes three other optional parameters. If none are specified, the following default values are used:

• path: default value is "44'/1729'/0'/0'"
  You can use as a parameter the HDPathTemplate which refers to 44'/1729'/${account}'/0'. You have to specify the index of the account you want to use. Or you can also use a complete path as a parameter. More details about paths here
• prompt: default is true
  If true, you will be asked on your Ledger device to send your public key for validation. Note that confirmation is required when using @ledgerhq/hw-transport-webhid, so you should not set this parameter to false if you are using this transport.
• derivationType: default is DerivationType.ED25519
  It can be DerivationType.ED25519 | DerivationType.BIP32_ED25519 (tz1), DerivationType.SECP256K1 (tz2) or DerivationType.P256 (tz3).

import { LedgerSigner, DerivationType, HDPathTemplate } from '@taquito/ledger-signer';

const ledgerSigner = new LedgerSigner(
  transport, //required
  HDPathTemplate(1), // path optional (equivalent to "44'/1729'/1'/0'")
  true, // prompt optional
  DerivationType.ED25519 // derivationType optional
);

Code Example

import { LedgerSigner } from '@taquito/ledger-signer';
import TransportWeb from '@ledgerhq/hw-transport-webhid';
import { TezosToolkit } from '@taquito/taquito';

const Tezos = new TezosToolkit('https://YOUR_PREFERRED_RPC_URL');

const transport = await TransportWeb.create();
const ledgerSigner = new LedgerSigner(transport);

Tezos.setProvider({ signer: ledgerSigner });

//Get the public key and the public key hash from the Ledger
const publicKey = await Tezos.signer.publicKey();
const publicKeyHash = await Tezos.signer.publicKeyHash();
