🧒 Example DApp

You can try the extension using our example DApp hosted at:

https://argentlabs.github.io/argent-x/

The example DApp is also contained in this repository.

🌐 Usage with your DApp

If you want to use this Starknet Wallet extension with your DApp, the easiest way is to checkout the @argent/get-starknet package developed in this repo by running:

# starknet.js is a peer dependency
yarn add @argent/get-starknet starknet

The package is a light wrapper around starknet.js to interact with the wallet extension. You can then use it like the following:

import { getStarknet } from "@argent/get-starknet"

// check if wallet extension is installed and initialized. Shows a modal prompting the user to download ArgentX otherwise.
const starknet = getStarknet({ showModal: true })
const [userWalletContractAddress] = await starknet.enable() // may throws when no extension is detected

// check if connection was successful
if(starknet.isConnected) {
    // If the extension was installed and successfully connected, you have access to a starknet.js Signer object to do all kind of requests through the users wallet contract.
    starknet.signer.invokeFunction({ ... })
} else {
    // In case the extension wasn't successfully connected you still have access to a starknet.js Provider to read starknet states and sent anonymous transactions
    starknet.provider.callContract( ... )
}

Checkout starknet.js to learn more about how to use Provider and Signer.
