Are you looking to integrate digital wallets into your decentralized application (Dapp)? Look no further! In this guide, we’ll walk you through the installation and usage of the WebExtension Wallet, enhancing your Dapp experience like never before.
1. Installation Steps
To get started, you need to install the WebExtension Wallet. Follow these simple steps:
- Visit the Chrome Web Store.
- Search for “WebExtension Wallet” and click to install it.
- If you plan to test local HTML files, ensure you toggle on the “Allow access to file URLs” option in the extension management page.
2. A Brief Introduction to Using Our Extension Wallet
The WebExtension Wallet offers a variety of features designed to help you manage your digital assets with ease:
- In the “New Wallet” tab, create a wallet and download your keystore files.
- In the “Send TX” tab, import your keystore file to store your account securely in the extension.
- Once your account is set up, you can send NAS to other accounts effortlessly.
- After sending a transaction, the transaction hash will be displayed at the bottom of the extension page for your reference.
- Simply click on the transaction hash in the “Send TX” tab to view its status.
- Alternatively, you can copy the transaction hash and use the “check-TX” feature to get detailed results.
3. Instructions for Using NasExtWallet in Your Web App
Integrating the NasExtWallet into your web application can be achieved in two primary ways:
3.1 Using NebPay SDK
To facilitate communication between your Dapp page and the WebExtension Wallet, you can utilize the NebPay SDK. Here’s how:
To call a SmartContract through the extension wallet, utilize the following format:
nebPay.call(to, value, callFunction, callArgs,
qrcode: true,
listener: cbCallDapp
);
The callback function cbCallDapp
allows you to handle the transaction results elegantly:
function cbCallDapp(resp) {
console.log("response: " + JSON.stringify(resp));
}
3.2 Using PostMessage
Alternatively, the postMessage
API provides an easy way to communicate with the ExtensionWallet:
window.postMessage({
target: 'contentscript',
data: {
to: to,
value: 0,
contract: contract,
function: func,
args: para,
},
method: 'neb_sendTransaction',
});
To capture the returned message, simply add an event listener like so:
window.addEventListener('message', function(e) {
console.log("message received, msg.data: " + JSON.stringify(e.data));
if (!!e.data.data.txhash) {
console.log("Transaction hash: " + JSON.stringify(e.data.data.txhash, null, 2));
}
});
4. How to Get the Account Address
If your Dapp needs to fetch the current account address from the extension, take note of the following methods:
Method 1:
var userAddress;
function getUserAddress() {
console.log("********* get account ************");
window.postMessage({
target: 'contentscript',
data: {},
method: 'getAccount',
});
}
window.addEventListener('message', function(e) {
if (e.detail) {
console.log("received by page: " + e + ", e.data: " + JSON.stringify(e.data));
if (!!e.data.data && !!e.data.data.account) {
userAddress = e.data.data.account;
}
}
});
Method 2:
In case the NasExtWallet module is injected, here’s how to get the user account:
var userAddress;
NasExtWallet.getUserAddress(function(addr) {
userAddress = addr;
console.log("user address is: " + addr);
});
Example Testing Page
You can use exampleTestPage.html
to conduct a trial run of your Dapp and its integration with the wallet.
