React SDK - picket-react
The Picket React SDK, picket-react, is a JavaScript library for integrating Picket into React apps. It gives access to a Picket context provider and custom hook for securing your app.
npm install --save "@picketapi/picket-react"
The
PicketProvider creates a Picket context, which makes user authentication information available throughout your app! It takes a publishable API key as a prop.import { PicketProvider } from "@picketapi/picket-react"
function MyApp({ children }) {
return (
<PicketProvider apiKey="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY_HERE">
{children}
</PicketProvider>
);
}
We’ve placed a placeholder publishable API key in this example. Replace it with your actual publishable API key.
After instantiating the
PicketProvider, you can use the usePicket hook to get user authentication information within your app. Below is an example of a component that renders different information based on the user's authentication state.import { usePicket } from "@picketapi/picket-react"
const MySecurePage = () => {
const {
isAuthenticating,
isAuthenticated,
authState,
logout,
login
} = usePicket();
// user is logging in
if (isAuthenticating) return "Loading";
// user is not logged in
if (!isAuthenticated) {
return (
<div>
<p>You are not logged in!</p>
<button onClick={() => login()}>Login with Wallet</button>
</div>
)
}
// user is logged in 🎉
const { user } = authState;
const { walletAddress } = user;
return (
<div>
<p>You are logged in as {walletAddress} </p>
<button onClick={() => logout()}>Logout</button>
</div>
)
}
The
usePicket hook provides your components information about the user's authentication state. You can use it to require authentication on specific routes, get user information, or get the login and logout functions.PicketProvider is a React context provider. It makes the Picket context available throughout your app and easily accessible via the usePicket hook. It's typical to wrap the outer-most component with the
PicketProvider to make a user's authentication and authorization state globally available to all child components.import { PicketProvider } from "@picketapi/picket-react"
function MyApp({ children }) {
return (
<PicketProvider apiKey="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY_HERE">
{children}
</PicketProvider>
);
}
The Picket Login Modal supports several themes. By default the login modal will use the
light theme. However, you can set it to a different theme to best fit into your overall web experience.You can set the theme by passing a prop to the
PicketProviderimport { PicketProvider } from "@picketapi/picket-react"
function MyApp({ children }) {
return (
{/* sets theme to dark */}
<PicketProvider apiKey="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY_HERE" theme="dark">
{children}
</PicketProvider>
);
}
usePicket is a wrapper around the useContext React hook that makes all Picket-related authentication information accessible.import { usePicket } from "@picketapi/picket-react"
const MySecureComponent = () => {
const {
isAuthenticating,
isAuthenticated,
authState,
logout,
login
} = usePicket();
// do something with the user's authentication state
// redirect not logged in
// make API requests with access token
// display wallet address
// etc
return isAuthenticated ? "you've logged in 😎" : "you need to login 🚨";
}
Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
isAuthenticating | bool | True if the login process has started and hasn't finished or Picket is validating the cached access token on initialization |
isAuthenticated | bool | True if the user has recently logged in and there is a cached, valid access token |
isAuthorized | function | Given authorization requirements, check if the current user is authorized. This is equivalent to isCurrentUserAuthorized in picket-js |
isAlreadyAuthorized | function | Check if the current user has already been authorized. This is synchronous, local-only check. I is useful for showing different states for UI elements. |
authState | AuthState | null | The auth state contains the data from the last successful login. null if the user is not authenticated |
error | Error | The latest error, if any, when authenticating a user. error is helpful for knowing when to display error messages to users. |
login | function | |
logout | function | |
loginWithRedirect | function | |
loginWithPopup | function |
PicketRainbowAuthProvider allows you to use Picket for authentication and authorization with the RainbowKit modal. import { PicketRainbowAuthProvider } from "@picketapi/picket-react";
function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
return (
<WagmiConfig client={wagmiClient}>
{/*
1. ORDER MATTERS! PicketRainbowAuthProvider must be nested
between WagmiConfig and RainbowKitProvider
2. Replace YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY_HERE with your project's publishable key
*/}
<PicketRainbowAuthProvider apiKey="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY_HERE">
<RainbowKitProvider chains={chains}>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</RainbowKitProvider>
</PicketRainbowAuthProvider>
</WagmiConfig>
);
}
