As a cryptocurrency enthusiast, you’re probably familiar with Web3Modal. This popular tool has made it easy to connect various blockchain networks, including Ethereum and Solana, to your MetaMask wallet or other web applications. In this article, we’ll explore how to connect Solana to Web3Modal and what you can expect from this integration.
Why connect Solana to Web3Modal?
Before we dive into the setup process, let’s talk about why connecting Solana to Web3Modal is a great idea. By doing so, you’ll be able to:
- Use Web3Modal’s interface with multiple blockchain networks
- Enable seamless transactions between Ethereum and Solana
- Take advantage of Web3Modal’s advanced features, such as decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contract interactions.
Step 1. Get your Solana wallet
To connect Solana to Web3Modal, you will need a Solana wallet. You can:
- Create a new Solana wallet on the Solana network
- Use an existing wallet with Solana support (e.g. MetaMask)
For this example, let’s assume you have a newly created Solana wallet.
Step 2: Install Web3Modal
To connect Metamask or Trust Wallet to Web3Modal, you will need to install the appropriate extension. You can do this via npm by running:
npm install @web3modal/web3modal
or
yarn add @web3modal/web3modal
Step 3: Configure Web3Modal
After installing the extension, you will need to configure it using your Solana wallet. Here’s a step-by-step guide.
- Open a command line interface or terminal and navigate to your project directory.
- Run “npm install” or “yarn install” to install the required dependencies.
- Create an instance of Web3Modal by running:
const { Web3Modal } = require('@web3modal/web3modal');
const web3Modal = new Web3Modal({
network: 'solana', // Specify your Solana network (e.g. mainnet, testnet)
wallet: { // Insert your Solana wallet credentials
account: { name: 'Your account name', email: 'your_email@example.com' },
key: Solana Wallet Key,
},
});
Replace “YourAccountName” with the actual name of the wallet you created and “your_email@example.com” with your email address.
Step 4: Integrate Web3Modal into your application
Now that Web3Modal is set up, you can integrate it into your application using Web3ModalInstance. Here is an example:
const web3ModalInstance = await web3Modal.getWeb3Modal();
// Use the instance to send transactions or interact with dApps
console.log(web3ModalInstance.getWallet().getBalance());
