This quick start guide will walk you through how to quickly get setup with the Passport SDK, register and authenticate users, and start signing messages and transactions. You can skip to the Complete Setup , and then follow the section step-by-step where each code snippet will be explained. You can also quickly pull the completed repository here https://github.com/0xpass/passport-quickstart and follow along.
Project setup
First we'll setup a Next.js project, with tailwind, we can do this with the following command, and walk through the configuration wizard, making sure to chose the app-router, and tailwind.
Copy npx create-next-app@latest
Setup and Dependencies
Firstly, we'll ensure we have all the requires dependencies. So we're going to install the Passport SDK @0xpass/passport
to interact with Passport protocol, and viem
for blockchain interactions. We'll also install some helper packages @0xpass/passport-viem
to seamlessly use Passport
with viem
, and finally @0xpass/webauthn-signer
to handle our passkey registration and authentication.
npm pnpm yarn
Copy npm install @0xpass/passport @0xpass/passport-viem @0xpass/webauthn-signer viem@1.16.6
Copy pnpm install @0xpass/passport @0xpass/passport-viem @0xpass/webauthn-signer viem@1.16.6
Copy yarn add @0xpass/passport @0xpass/passport-viem @0xpass/webauthn-signer viem@1.16.6
Firstly let's setup a usePassport
hook, which gives us an easy way to access our Passport
instance.
Copy import { useRef } from "react" ;
import { WebauthnSigner } from "@0xpass/webauthn-signer" ;
import { Network , Passport } from "@0xpass/passport" ;
export function usePassport (scopeId : string ) {
const signerRef = useRef < WebauthnSigner | null >( null );
const passportRef = useRef < Passport | null >( null );
if ( ! signerRef .current) {
signerRef .current = new WebauthnSigner ({
rpId : process . env . NEXT_PUBLIC_RP_ID ! ,
rpName : "0xPass" ,
});
}
if ( ! passportRef .current) {
passportRef .current = new Passport ({
scopeId : scopeId ,
signer : signerRef .current ,
network : Network . TESTNET ,
});
}
return {
passport : passportRef .current ,
signer : signerRef .current ,
};
}
Now in our page.tsx
we can setup our state variables for, tracking registering, and authenticating users. We'll also use our Passport
and WebauthnSigner
instances, from the hook we just created. as well as our Alchemy url and a fallback provider, which we'll make use of when we want to signMessages with our WalletClient
.
Copy "use client" ;
import { useState } from "react" ;
import { createPassportClient } from "@0xpass/passport-viem" ;
import { http } from "viem" ;
import { mainnet } from "viem/chains" ;
import { usePassport } from "./hooks/usePassport" ;
export default function Page () {
const [ username , setUsername ] = useState ( "" );
const [ authenticated , setAuthenticated ] = useState ( false );
const [ authenticating , setAuthenticating ] = useState ( false );
const [ registering , setRegistering ] = useState ( false );
const [ authenticateSetup , setAuthenticateSetup ] = useState ( false );
const [ signMessageLoading , setSignMessageLoading ] = useState ( false );
const [ message , setMessage ] = useState ( "" );
const [ messageSignature , setMessageSignature ] = useState ( "" );
const [ authenticatedHeader , setAuthenticatedHeader ] = useState ({});
const [ address , setAddress ] = useState < string >();
const alchemyUrl = process . env . NEXT_PUBLIC_ALCHEMY_URL ! ;
const fallbackProvider = http (alchemyUrl);
const userInput = {
username : username ,
userDisplayName : username ,
};
const { passport } = usePassport ( "07907e39-63c6-4b0b-bca8-377d26445172" );
We use a useRef
so that a new instance of WebauthnSigner
and Passport
aren't re-created during re-renders.
Next up we're going to setup our WalletClient
with viem, our functions to register and authenticate users, as well as sign messages.
So we set up the functions for these as follows, we setup the register
, authenticate
and signMessage
functions, as well as our createWalletClient
function which allows us to set up client to use any viem
functionality.
Copy async function register () {
setRegistering ( true );
try {
await passport .setupEncryption ();
const res = await passport .register (userInput);
console .log (res);
if ( res . result .account_id) {
setRegistering ( false );
setAuthenticating ( true );
await authenticate ();
setAuthenticating ( false );
}
} catch (error) {
console .error ( "Error registering:" , error);
} finally {
setRegistering ( false );
setAuthenticating ( false );
}
}
async function authenticate () {
setAuthenticating ( true );
try {
await passport .setupEncryption ();
const [ authenticatedHeader , address ] = await passport .authenticate (
userInput
) ! ;
setAuthenticatedHeader (authenticatedHeader);
console .log (address);
setAddress (address);
setAuthenticated ( true );
} catch (error) {
console .error ( "Error registering:" , error);
} finally {
setAuthenticating ( false );
}
}
async function createWalletClient () {
return await createPassportClient (
authenticatedHeader ,
fallbackProvider ,
mainnet
);
}
async function signMessage (message : string ) {
try {
setSignMessageLoading ( true );
const client = await createWalletClient ();
const [ address ] = await client .getAddresses ();
const response = await client .signMessage ({
account : address ,
message ,
});
setMessageSignature (response);
setSignMessageLoading ( false );
} catch (error) {
console .error (error);
}
}
Complete Setup
Now with all of this setup we can setup our UI too, so the overall setup looks as below. In the final part of our setup, we've created the UI layer to interact with the above functions. We have buttons to register and authenticate, which dynamically interact with the state, to show loading states, as well as authenticated states, and finally when a message is signed, the user is also able to see the signed message signature.
