4. Cosmos Kit

Cosmos Kit

The wonderful people of Cosmology have made some fantastic components (opens in a new tab) that can be used with Nym. These include:

Environment Setup

Begin by creating a directory and configuring your application environment:

npm create vite@latest

During the environment setup, choose React and subsequently opt for Typescript if you want your application to function smoothly following this tutorial. Next, navigate to your application directory and run the following commands:

cd < YOUR_APP >
npm i 
npm run dev
Installation

Install the required package:

npm install @cosmos-kit/react @cosmos-kit/keplr @cosmos-kit/ledger chain-registry

You need to polyfill some nodejs modules in order to use keplr and ledger wallets by modifying your vite.config.js file:

npm install @esbuild-plugins/node-globals-polyfill
// vite.config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
import { NodeGlobalsPolyfillPlugin } from '@esbuild-plugins/node-globals-polyfill'
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  optimizeDeps: {
        esbuildOptions: {
            define: {
                global: 'globalThis'
            },
            plugins: [
                NodeGlobalsPolyfillPlugin({
                    buffer: true
                })
            ]
        }
    }
})

Your components have to be wrapped into a ChainProvider (opens in a new tab), in order to use the useChain('nyx') hook. The nyx chain is provided in the 'chain-registry' NPM package by default.

Now, go to the src folder and open your App.tsx file to replace all the code with the following, which will allow you to connect and disconnect a Ledger or Keplr wallet to Nyx:

import "./App.css";
import React from 'react';
import { ChainProvider, useChain } from '@cosmos-kit/react';
import { assets, chains } from 'chain-registry';
import { wallets as ledger } from '@cosmos-kit/ledger';
import { wallets as keplr } from '@cosmos-kit/keplr';
import { AminoMsg, makeSignDoc } from '@cosmjs/amino';
import { MsgSend } from 'cosmjs-types/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx';
 
export const getDoc = (address: string) => {
  const chainId = 'nyx';
  const msg: AminoMsg = {
    type: '/cosmos.bank.v1beta1.MsgSend',
    value: MsgSend.fromPartial({
      fromAddress: address,
      toAddress: 'n1nn8tghp94n8utsgyg3kfttlxm0exgjrsqkuwu9',
      amount: [{ amount: '1000', denom: 'unym' }],
    }),
  };
  const fee = {
    amount: [{ amount: '2000', denom: 'ucosm' }],
    gas: '180000', // 180k
  };
  const memo = 'Use your power wisely';
  const accountNumber = 15;
  const sequence = 16;
  const doc = makeSignDoc([msg], fee, chainId, memo, accountNumber, sequence);
  return doc
};
 
function MyComponent() {
  const {wallet, address, connect, disconnect, getOfflineSignerAmino } =
  useChain('nyx');
 
  React.useEffect(() => {
    connect();
    disconnect();
  }, []);
 
  const sign = async () => {
    if (!address) return
    const doc = getDoc(address);
    return getOfflineSignerAmino().signAmino(address, doc);
  };
 
  return (
    <div>  
      <div>
        {wallet && 
        <div> 
          <div>Connected to {wallet?.prettyName} </div> 
          <div>Address: <code>{address}</code></div>
        </div>}
      </div>
      {wallet ? (
        <div>
          <button onClick={() => disconnect()}>Disconnect wallet</button>
        </div>
      ) : (
        <div>
          <button onClick={() => connect()}>Connect wallet</button>
        </div>
      )}
    </div>
  );
}
 
export default function App() {
    const assetsFixedUp = React.useMemo(() => {
    const nyx = assets.find((a) => a.chain_name === 'nyx');
    if (nyx) {
      const nyxCoin = nyx.assets.find((a) => a.name === 'nyx');
      if (nyxCoin) {
        nyxCoin.coingecko_id = 'nyx';
      }
      nyx.assets = nyx.assets.reverse();
    }
    return assets;
  }, [assets]);
 
  return (
     <ChainProvider
      chains={[chains.find((c) => c.chain_id === 'nyx')!]}
      assetLists={assetsFixedUp}
      wallets={[...ledger, ...keplr]}
      signerOptions={{
        preferredSignType: () => 'amino',
      }}
    >
 
        <MyComponent/>
    </ChainProvider>
 
  )
}
