Integrate Embedded Wallets with the StarkEx Blockchain

While using the Embedded Wallets Web SDK (formerly Web3Auth) for a non-EVM chain like StarkEx, you can get the user's private key from the provider. Using this private key, you can use the corresponding libraries of the blockchain to make blockchain calls like getting the user's account, fetching balance, sign transaction, send transaction, read from and write to the smart contract, etc. We have highlighted a few methods here to get you started quickly.

note

The SDKs are now branded as MetaMask Embedded Wallet SDKs (formerly Web3Auth Plug and Play SDKs). Package names and APIs remain Web3Auth (for example, Web3Auth React SDK), and code snippets may reference web3auth identifiers.

Installation​

npm install --save web3 bn.js elliptic @starkware-industries/starkex-js @starkware-industries/starkware-crypto-utils

Initializing Provider​

Getting the chainConfig​

  • Chain Namespace: other
  • Chain ID: 0x1
  • Public RPC URL: https://rpc.ethereum.org (Avoid using public rpcTarget in production)
  • Display Name: StarkEx Mainnet
  • Block Explorer Link: https://etherscan.io
  • Ticker: STARK
  • Ticker Name: StarkEx

Get Account and Key​

Once a user logs in, the Embedded Wallets SDK returns a provider. Even though StarkEx is a layer 2 on Ethereum, it is not EVM compatible. Therefore, you cannot use the native EIP-1193 provider used for EVM blockchains; instead, use the private key directly to make calls.

Using the function, web3auth.provider.request({method: "private_key"}) from Web3Auth provider, the application can have access to the user's private key. However, we cannot use this key with StarkEx EC Curve specific signing functions, hence, we first derive the Stark Key using the getStarkKey() function.

On the underhood, it uses the starkwareCrypto.ec.keyFromPrivate() function, where we pass our Private key with the hex argument, since it is hex encoded. Further we get the public key from this using the starkwareCrypto.ec.keyFromPublic() function, and we take its X-coordinate using .pub.getX() which is our starkKey. We use this starkKey on StarkEx transactions.

import starkwareCrypto from '@starkware-industries/starkware-crypto-utils'
import { ec as elliptic } from 'elliptic'
/*

*/

// web3authProvider is web3auth.provider from above
const privateKey = await web3authProvider.request({ method: 'private_key' })
const keyPair = starkwareCrypto.ec.keyFromPrivate(privateKey, 'hex')
// get the account address from the public key
const account = starkwareCrypto.ec.keyFromPublic(keyPair.getPublic(true, 'hex'), 'hex')

// Use this key for the StarkEx transactions
const startKey = account.pub.getX().toString('hex')
