Dappauth NPM | npm.io

DappAuth

A Plug-n-Play Javascript library for adding UI interface for onboarding users to ethereum(upcoming support for other blockchain platforms) apps by enabling wallet selection, connection, readiness and real time state updates.

Install

npm install dappauth

Quick Start with Default Modules

import DappAuth from "dappauth"

// initialize DappAuth modules
const modules = DappAuth.modules({
  /*
  See the docs to get a projectId
  docs -> https://simpleaswater.gitbook.io/dappkit/dappauth
  */
  projectId: 'your-project-id-here', 
  
  /*
  an light, opt-in authentication analytics which records
    - user public address
    - auth method used to signup/login(eg. metamask, torus, uport etc.)
    - number of sessions
    - date-time of sessions

    DEVELOPER CONSENT:
    if "allowAuthAnalytics" is set to "true", then you can see the list of the
    onboarded users in the "Authentication" section of your Project Dashboard.

    USER CONSENT:
    Also, while logging in, the user will be asked if he/she wants to participate
    in the analytics or not. If approved then ONLY the data can be recoreded.
    

    if "allowAuthAnalytics" is set to "false", no data will be recorded.

Options

const options = {
  networkId: Number, // see below
  subscriptions: {
    address: Function, // Called with the current account address of the user [String]
    network: Function, // Called with the current network id the users' wallet is connected to [Number]
    balance: Function, // Called with the current balance in `wei` of the users' current account address [String]
    wallet: Function // Called with the users' current selected wallet [Object]: {provider: Object, name: String, instance: Object (if a sdk wallet)}
  },
  modules: {
    walletSelect: {
      heading: String, // The heading for the wallet select modal
      description: String, // The description for the wallet select modal
      wallets: {
        mobile: Array, // array of mobile wallet modules
        desktop: Array // array of desktop wallet modules
      }
    },
    walletReady: Array // array of wallet readiness modules
  }
}

`projectId` - REQUIRED

Your unique apiKey that identifies your application. You can generate a projectId by visiting the Dappkit account page and create a free account.

`networkId` - REQUIRED

The Ethereum network id that your application runs on. The following values are valid:

1 Main Network
3 Ropsten Test Network
4 Rinkeby Test Network
5 Goerli Test Network
42 Kovan Test Network

API

`walletSelect`

When you are ready to start onboarding a user, call the walletSelect function to prompt them to display the wallet select UI:

const walletSelected = await dappauth.walletSelect()
// returns a Promise that:
// resolves with true if user selected a wallet and provider is good to go
// resolves with false if user exited from wallet select modal

This function will show a modal that displays buttons for all of the wallets that you initialized dappauth with. It will guide the user through the process of connecting to the wallet that they select. Once the process is successful the function will resolve with true. This means that the provider subscription will have been called with the provider of the selected wallet and you can go ahead and instantiate your web3 library with the provider and also instantiate your contracts.

`walletReady`

Once a wallet is selected, you will want to make sure that the user's wallet is prepared and ready to transact by calling the walletReady function:

const readyToTransact = await dappauth.walletReady()
// returns a Promise that:
// resolves with true if user is ready to transact
// resolves with false if user exited before completing all wallet readiness modules

This function will run through the onboarding modules sequentially, making sure the user has passed the condition contained in each module and eventually resolves with true if the user completed the sequence. This means that the user is ready to transact. This function is useful to call before every transaction to make sure that nothing has changed since the last time it was called.

`config`

You can update configuration parameters by passing a config object in to the config function:

dappauth.config({ darkMode: true })

Available parameters that you can edit are:

{
  darkMode: Boolean, // (default: false)
}

const modules = Dappauth.modules({
  projectId: 'your projectId here',
  allowAuthAnalytics: true
})

const {
  portis,
  squarelink,
  dapper,
  metamask,
  fortmatic,
  torus
} = modules.select

const dappauth = DappAuth.init({
  // ...
  modules: {
    walletSelect: {
      heading: "Select a Wallet",
      description:
        "Please select the wallet that you would like to use with this Dapp",
      wallets: {
        desktop: [
          portis({ apiKey: "Your portis key here", networkId: 1 }),
          squarelink({ apiKey: "Your squarelink key here", networkId: 1 }),
          dapper(),
          metmask(),
          torus()
        ],
        mobile: [fortmatic({ apiKey: "Your fortmatic key here", networkId: 1 })]
      }
    }
    //....
  }
})

// OR

// USE ALL OF THE DEFAULT MODULES

const dappauth = DappAuth.init({
  // ...
  modules: {
    walletSelect: modules.select.defaults({
      portisInit: { apiKey: "Your portis key here" },
      networkId: 4
    })
    // ...
  }
})

Wallet Ready Modules

The wallet ready modules are functions that return a function that will be called with the current user state. The module will return a modal object if that state is invalid or undefined if the state is valid. The following default modules are available:

defaults: A meta module that quickly initializes all of the default modules into the correct format (requires initialization object)
connect: Checks that the dapp has access to accounts and fires the connect function if the selected wallet has one
network: Checks that the users' wallet is connected to the desired network (requires initialization argument)
balance: Checks that the users' account has enough balance as defined when initialized (requires initialization argument)

defaults Initialization:

modules.ready.defaults({
  networkId: Number, // The network id your dapp runs on
  minimumBalance: String // the minimum balance in wei required to interact with your dapp
})

network Initialization:

network(Number) //  the network id your dapp runs on

balance Initialization:

balance(String) //  the minimum balance in wei required to interact with your dapp

Example

import DappAuth from "dappauth"

const modules = Dappauth.modules({
  projectId: 'your projectId here',
  allowAuthAnalytics: true
})

// PICK AND CHOOSE MODULES

const { connect, network, balance } = modules.ready

const dappauth = DappAuth.init({
  // ...
  modules: {
    //....
    walletReady: [connect(), network(1), balance("400000000000")]
  }
})

// OR

// USE ALL OF THE DEFAULT MODULES

const dappauth = DappAuth.init({
  // ...
  modules: {
    // ...
    walletReady: modules.ready.defaults({
      networkId: 1,
      minimumBalance: "400000000000"
    })
  }
})
