Modules

Vue

A collection of composable functions for implementing web3-onboard in to a Vue project; compatible both with Vue 2 + composition-api and Vue 3

Install

Quickstart

        import { init } from '@web3-onboard/vue'
import injectedModule from '@web3-onboard/injected-wallets'

const injected = injectedModule()
const infuraKey = '<INFURA_KEY>'
const rpcUrl = `https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/${infuraKey}`

const web3Onboard = init({
  wallets: [injected],
  chains: [
    {
      id: '0x1',
      token: 'ETH',
      label: 'Ethereum Mainnet',
      rpcUrl
    }
  ]
})

const { wallets, connectWallet, disconnectConnectedWallet, connectedWallet } = useOnboard()

if (connectedWallet) {
  // if using ethers v6 this is:
  // ethersProvider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(wallet.provider, 'any')
  const ethersProvider = new ethers.providers.Web3Provider(connectedWallet.provider, 'any')
  // ..... do stuff with the provider
}

      

Functions

init

The init function initializes web3-onboard and makes it available to the useOnboard() composable. For references check out the initialization docs for @web3-onboard/core

Example usage

        import { init } from '@web3-onboard/vue'
import injectedModule from '@web3-onboard/injected-wallets'

const injected = injectedModule()
const infuraKey = '<INFURA_KEY>'
const rpcUrl = `https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/${infuraKey}`

const web3Onboard = init({
  wallets: [injected],
  chains: [
    {
      id: '0x1',
      token: 'ETH',
      label: 'Ethereum Mainnet',
      rpcUrl
    }
  ]
})

      

useOnboard

useOnboard must be used after the init function has been called - it will return an object that can be destructured to obtain the following reactive variables and functions:

Example usage

        import { useOnboard } from '@web3-onboard/vue'
// Use the composable
const onboard = useOnboard()
// Or destructure it
const { wallets, connectWallet, disconnectConnectedWallet, connectedWallet } = useOnboard()
// do stuff

      

connectWallet

Example usage

        <script>
  import { useOnboard } from '@web3-onboard/vue'

Build Environments

Many of the wallet modules require dependencies that are not normally included in browser builds (namely the node builtin modules such as crypto, buffer, util etc). If you are having build issues you can try the following bundler configs to resolve these dependency issues:

Webpack 4

Node built-ins are automatically bundled in v4 so that portion is handled automatically.

web3auth and torus will require a Babel to compile from es6 if not already supported. See config for Babel and Webpack4 as follows

npm i --save-dev @babel/cli @babel/core @babel/node @babel/plugin-proposal-nullish-coalescing-operator @babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining @babel/plugin-syntax-bigint @babel/register AND npm i babel-loader

babel.config.js

        module.exports = (api) => {
  api.cache(true)
  const plugins = [
    '@babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining',
    '@babel/plugin-proposal-nullish-coalescing-operator',
    '@babel/plugin-syntax-bigint'
  ]
  return { plugins }
}

      

webpack.config.js

        config.module.rules = [
  ...otherModuleRules,
  {
    test: /\.js$/,
    exclude: (_) => !/node_modules\/(@web3auth|@ethereumjs)/.test(_),
    loader: 'babel-loader'
  }
]

      

Webpack 5

You'll need to add some dev dependencies with the following command:

npm i --save-dev assert buffer crypto-browserify stream-http https-browserify os-browserify process stream-browserify util path-browserify

Then add the following to your webpack.config.js file:

        const webpack = require('webpack')

module.exports = {
  resolve: {
    fallback: {
      path: require.resolve('path-browserify')
    },
    alias: {
      assert: 'assert',
      buffer: 'buffer',
      crypto: 'crypto-browserify',
      http: 'stream-http',
      https: 'https-browserify',
      os: 'os-browserify/browser',
      process: 'process/browser',
      stream: 'stream-browserify',
      util: 'util'
    }
  },
  experiments: {
    asyncWebAssembly: true
  },
  plugins: [
    new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
      process: 'process/browser',
      Buffer: ['buffer', 'Buffer']
    })
  ]
}

      

Vite

Add the following dev dependencies:

npm i --save-dev rollup-plugin-polyfill-node crypto-browserify stream-browserify assert

Then add the following to your vite.config.js file:

        import nodePolyfills from 'rollup-plugin-polyfill-node'

const MODE = process.env.NODE_ENV
const development = MODE === 'development'

export default {
  // other config options
  plugins: [
    development &&
      nodePolyfills({
        include: ['node_modules/**/*.js', new RegExp('node_modules/.vite/.*js')],
        http: true,
        crypto: true
      })
  ],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      crypto: 'crypto-browserify',
      stream: 'stream-browserify',
      assert: 'assert'
    }
  },
  build: {
    rollupOptions: {
      plugins: [nodePolyfills({ crypto: true, http: true })]
    },
    commonjsOptions: {
      transformMixedEsModules: true
    }
  }
}

      

Nuxt.js

Add the following to your nuxt.config.js:

        build: {
  standalone: true,
}
