Advanced tools
​
​ ProviderWeb developed by Waves.Exchange implements a Signature Provider for Signer protocol library. Signer enables easy deploy dApps based on Waves blockchain. Users' encrypted private keys and SEED phrase are stored in waves.exchange domain of the local browser storage. Waves.Exchange and other apps do not have access to the local data as they are stored encrypted.
​
For now, signing is implemented for all types of transactions except exchange transactions. ​
​
​ To install Signer and ProviderWeb libraries use ​
npm i @waves/signer @waves.exchange/provider-web
​ For Windows, use the following format:
npm i @waves/signer '@waves.exchange/provider-web'
​ ​
​ Add library initialization to your app. ​
import Signer from '@waves/signer';
import { ProviderWeb } from '@waves.exchange/provider-web';
const signer = new Signer({
  // Specify URL of the node on Testnet
  NODE_URL: 'https://nodes-testnet.wavesnodes.com'
});
signer.setProvider(new ProviderWeb('https://testnet.waves.exchange/signer'));
​
import Signer from '@waves/signer';
import { ProviderWeb } from '@waves.exchange/provider-web';
const signer = new Signer();
signer.setProvider(new ProviderWeb());
​
​ Now your application is ready to work with Waves Platform. Let's test it by implementing basic functionality. For example, we could try to authenticate user, get his/her balances and transfer funds. ​
const user = await signer.login();
const balances = await signer.getBalance();
const [broadcastedTransfer] = await signer
  .transfer({amount: 100000000, recipient: 'alias:T:merry'}) // Transfer 1 WAVES to alias merry
  .broadcast(); // Promise will resolved after user sign and node response
​
const [signedTransfer] = await signer
  .transfer({amount: 100000000, recipient: 'alias:T:merry'}) // Transfer 1 WAVES to alias merry
  .sign(); // Promise will resolved after user sign
​
new ProviderWeb(clientOrigin: string, logs: boolean);
​ Creates an object that features user authentication and transaction signing. ​ You can use optional parameters for debugging. ​
