GalaChain core SDK 1.0.0-rc.8 / providers / WalletProvider

Interface: WalletProvider

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:41

One wallet, however it signs: PrivateKeyProvider, ExternalWalletProvider (EIP-1193 browser wallets) or GalaWalletProvider.

signMessage / signTypedData sign ARBITRARY messages and typed data (logins, permits); getSigner gives the core GalaChainSigner for GalaChain DTOs, bound to the account the provider is connected to when it is called. After the account changes, get a new signer: a signer keeps the identity it was made for, so a write never silently signs as someone else.

Example

const provider = new ExternalWalletProvider(window.ethereum);
await provider.connect();
const signature = await provider.signMessage('Hello');
const signer = provider.getSigner(); // for GatewayWrites, GSwap, ...

Properties

providerType

readonly providerType: WalletProviderType

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:43

Whether the provider holds a raw key (privateKey) or signs in a wallet (external).

Methods

connect()

connect(): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:82

Asks the wallet for account access (a private-key provider is always ready).

Returns

Promise<string>

The connected account (0x, checksummed).

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_CONNECTION_FAILED.

---

disconnect()

disconnect(): Promise<void>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:92

Forgets the account and stops listening to the wallet's events.

Returns

Promise<void>

---

getAddress()

getAddress(): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:63

The connected account: 0x plus its EIP-55 checksummed digits.

Returns

Promise<string>

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_NOT_CONNECTED.

---

getGalaAddress()

getGalaAddress(): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:69

The connected account as GalaChain spells it: eth| plus the checksummed digits.

Returns

Promise<string>

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_NOT_CONNECTED.

---

getPrivateKey()?

optional getPrivateKey(): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:109

The raw private key (0x plus 64 lower-case hex digits). Only a PrivateKeyProvider has one.

Returns

Promise<string>

Throws

GalaSDKError PRIVATE_KEY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE for a wallet-backed provider.

---

getSigner()

getSigner(): GalaChainSigner

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:75

The core signer for GalaChain DTOs, bound to the account connected NOW.

Returns

GalaChainSigner

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_NOT_CONNECTED.

---

isConnected()

isConnected(): boolean

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:94

True while the provider has an account to sign for.

Returns

boolean

---

onAccountChanged()?

optional onAccountChanged(listener): () => void

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:102

Calls listener with the new account whenever it changes (the wallet switched accounts, or connect()), and with null once disconnected. Every provider in this package has it; a custom provider may leave it out.

Parameters

listener

(address) => void

Returns

The function that stops the calls.

() => void

---

restore()?

optional restore(): Promise<string | null>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:90

Reconnects to the account the wallet already lets this site use, without a wallet prompt (eth_accounts, never eth_requestAccounts). Every wallet-backed provider in this package has it; a private-key provider and a custom provider may leave it out. Never throws.

Returns

Promise<string | null>

The connected account (0x, checksummed), or null when the wallet reports none.

---

signMessage()

signMessage(message): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:50

Parameters

message

string

Promise<string>

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_NOT_CONNECTED, or SIGNING_FAILED (user_rejected when the person declined).

---

signTypedData()

signTypedData(domain, types, value): Promise<string>

Defined in: packages/gala-core-sdk/dist/providers.d.ts:57

Parameters

domain

TypedDataDomain

types

Record<string, TypedDataField[]>

value

Record<string, unknown>

Returns

Promise<string>

Throws

GalaSDKError WALLET_NOT_CONNECTED, or SIGNING_FAILED.
