Interfacing with common libraries

Privy is fully compatible with popular web3 libraries for interfacing wallets, including viem, wagmi, ethers, and web3js.

Read below to learn how to best integrate Privy alongside these libraries.

Viem

Viem represents connected wallets as either an account object, which can sign with the wallet, or a wallet client object, which can also send transactions from the wallet.

Getting an account

To get an account for a user’s connected wallet, import the toViemAccount method and the useWallets hook from the React SDK.

import {toViemAccount, useWallets} from '@privy-io/react-auth';

Then, pass the ConnectedWallet object for your user’s wallet to the method, which will return a LocalAccount instance.

const {wallets} = useWallets();

const wallet = wallets.find((wallet) => (wallet.address === 'your-desired-address'));
const account = await toViemAccount({wallet});

You can then use the account to sign messages, typed data payloads, and transactions.

Getting a wallet client

To get a viem wallet client for a user’s connected wallet, first import your desired network from the viem/chains package and import the createWalletClient method and custom transport from viem:

import {createWalletClient, custom} from 'viem';
// Replace `sepolia` with your desired network
import {sepolia} from 'viem/chains';

Then, find your desired wallet from the wallets array and switch its network to the chain you imported, using the wallet’s switchChain method:

const {wallets} = useWallets();
const wallet = wallets[0]; // Replace this with your desired wallet
await wallet.switchChain(sepolia.id);

Lastly, get the wallet’s EIP1193 provider using the wallet’s getEthereumProvider method and pass it to viem’s createWalletClient method like so:

const provider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const walletClient = createWalletClient({
    account: wallet.address as Hex,
    chain: sepolia,
    transport: custom(provider),
});

You can then use the wallet client to get information about the wallet or request signatures and transactions.

Wagmi

Privy is fully compatible with wagmi. Please see our wagmi guide for setting up the integration.

Ethers

Ethers v5

const privyProvider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const provider = new ethers.providers.Web3Provider(privyProvider);

Ethers v6

const provider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const ethersProvider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(provider);
const signer = ethersProvider.getSigner();

Web3.js

Web3.js represents connected wallets as a Web3 object, which you can use to get information about the current wallet or the request signatures and transactions.

To get a Web3js provider for a user’s connected wallet, first find your desired wallet from the wallets array and switch it to your desired network, using the wallet’s switchChain method:

const {wallets} = useWallets();
const wallet = wallets[0]; // Replace this with your desired wallet
await wallet.switchChain(sepolia.id);

Then, get the wallet’s EIP1193 provider using the wallet’s getEthereumProvider method and pass it to Web3js’s Web3 constructor like so:

const provider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const web3 = new Web3(provider);

You can then use the Web3 provider to get information about the wallet or request signatures and transactions.

Privy is fully compatible with popular web3 libraries for interfacing wallets, including viem, wagmi, ethers, and web3js.

You can then use the account to sign messages, typed data payloads, and transactions.

Getting a wallet client

import {createWalletClient, custom} from 'viem';
// Replace `sepolia` with your desired network
import {sepolia} from 'viem/chains';

Then, find your desired wallet from the wallets array and switch its network to the chain you imported, using the wallet’s switchChain method:

const {wallets} = useWallets();
const wallet = wallets[0]; // Replace this with your desired wallet
await wallet.switchChain(sepolia.id);

Lastly, get the wallet’s EIP1193 provider using the wallet’s getEthereumProvider method and pass it to viem’s createWalletClient method like so:

const provider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const walletClient = createWalletClient({
    account: wallet.address as Hex,
    chain: sepolia,
    transport: custom(provider),
});

You can then use the wallet client to get information about the wallet or request signatures and transactions.

Wagmi

Then, get the wallet’s EIP1193 provider using the wallet’s getEthereumProvider method and pass it to Web3js’s Web3 constructor like so:

const provider = await wallet.getEthereumProvider();
const web3 = new Web3(provider);

You can then use the Web3 provider to get information about the wallet or request signatures and transactions.

Privy is fully compatible with popular web3 libraries for interfacing wallets, including viem, ethers, and web3js.

Third-party libraries may require additional shims to be used in a React Native environment.

Integrating with `viem`

First, import the necessary methods, objects, and networks from viem:

import {createWalletClient, custom} from 'viem';
// Replace 'mainnet' with your desired network
import {mainnet} from 'viem/chains';

Next, get an EIP-1193 provider for the user’s embedded wallet, and switch its network to your desired network:

const provider = await wallet.getProvider();
await provider.request({
    method: 'wallet_switchEthereumChain',
    // Replace '0x1' with the chain ID of your desired network
    params: [{chainId: '0x1'}],
});

Lastly, initialize a viem Wallet Client from the EIP-1193 provider:

const walletClient = createWalletClient({
    // Replace this with your desired network that you imported from viem
    chain: mainnet,
    transport: custom(provider),
});

You can now use methods implemented by viem’s Wallet Client, including signMessage, signTypedData, and sendTransaction!

Integrating with `ethers`

First, import ethers:

import {ethers} from 'ethers';

Next, get an EIP-1193 provider for the user’s embedded wallet, and switch its network to your desired network:

await provider.request({
    method: 'wallet_switchEthereumChain',
    // Replace '0x1' with the chain ID of your desired network
    params: [{chainId: '0x1'}],
});

Lastly, initialize an ethers provider and signer from this EIP-1193 provider:

const ethersProvider = new ethers.providers.Web3Provider(provider);
const ethersSigner = ethersProvider.getSigner();

You can then use methods implemented by ethers’ providers and signers, including signMessage and sendTransaction.

Integrating with `web3.js`

First, import web3:

import {Web3} from 'web3';

Next, get an EIP-1193 provider for the user’s embedded wallet, and switch its network to your desired network:

await wallet.provider.request({
    method: 'wallet_switchEthereumChain',
    // Replace '0x1' with the chain ID of your desired network
    params: [{chainId: '0x1'}],
});

Lastly, initialize an ethers provider and signer from this EIP-1193 provider:

const web3 = new Web3(wallet.getEthereumProvider());

You can then use interfaces by web3.js for signing messages, sending transactions, and more.

Viem

viem is a popular TypeScript library on EVM for executing onchain actions with wallets. Privy’s server wallets on EVM natively integrate with viem, allowing you to use the library’s interfaces for signing messages, signing typed data, sending transactions, and more.

To integrate with viem, first install version 2^ of the library as a peer dependency:

npm i viem@latest

Then, use Privy’s createViemAccount method to initialize an instance of a viem Account for an EVM server wallet. As a parameter to this method, pass an object with the following:

Field	Type	Description
`walletId`	`string`	ID of the wallet.
`address`	`0x${string}`	Ethereum address of the wallet.
`privy`	`PrivyClient`	Instance of the Privy client for your app.

As an example, you can initialize an Account like so:

import {PrivyClient} from '@privy-io/server-auth';
import {createViemAccount} from '@privy-io/server-auth/viem';

// Initialize your Privy client
const privy = new PrivyClient(...);
// Create a viem account instance for a wallet
const account = await createViemAccount({
    walletId: 'insert-wallet-id',
    address: 'insert-address',
    privy
});

From the returned Account, you can then initialize a viem WalletClient to sign messages and execute transactions with the wallet like so:

import {createWalletClient, http, parseEther} from 'viem';
import {base} from 'viem/chains';

const client = createWalletClient({
    account, // `Account` instance from above
    chain: base, // Replace with your desired network
    transport: http()
});

const hash = await client.sendTransaction({
    to: '0x59D3eB21Dd06A211C89d1caBE252676e2F3F2218',
    value: parseEther('0.001')
});

Ethers

Ethers is a popular TypeScript library for interacting with the Ethereum blockchain. Privy’s server wallets on EVM natively integrate with ethers, allowing you to use the library’s interfaces for signing messages, signing typed data, sending transactions, and more.

To integrate with ethers, first install version 6^ of the library as a peer dependency:

npm i ethers@latest

Then, use Privy’s createEthersSigner method to initialize an instance of an ethers Wallet for an EVM server wallet. As a parameter to this method, pass an object with the following:

Field	Type	Description
`walletId`	`string`	ID of the wallet.
`address`	`0x${string}`	Ethereum address of the wallet.
`provider`	`ethers.JsonRpcProvider`	Instance of the ethers provider.
`privyClient`	`PrivyClient`	Instance of the Privy client for your app.

import {ethers, TransactionRequest} from 'ethers';

import {PrivyClient} from '@privy-io/server-auth';
import {createEthersSigner} from '@privy-io/server-auth/ethers';

// Initialize your Privy client
const privyClient = new PrivyClient(...);

// Initialize your ethers provider
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://base.llamarpc.com');

// Get your wallet
const walletId = 'insert-wallet-id';
const wallet = await privyClient.walletApi.getWallet({id: walletId});
const address = wallet.address;

// Create an ethers signer
const signer = createEthersSigner({
    walletId,
    address,
    provider,
    privyClient,
});

Once you have an ethers signer, you can use it to sign messages and send transactions with the wallet like so:

const transaction: TransactionRequest = {
    to: TO_ADDRESS,
    value: 100,
    chainId: 8453,
};

const signedMessage = await signer.signMessage('foobar');
const signedTransaction = await signer.signTransaction(transaction);
const result = await signer.sendTransaction(transaction);

Integrating with `eth-account`

Privy EVM wallets natively integrate with the Python eth-account library, allowing you to use the library’s interfaces for signing messages, signing typed data, sending transactions, and more.

To integrate with eth-account, first install the library as a dependency:

pip install privy-eth-account

Then, use Privy’s create_eth_account function to initialize an instance of an Account for an EVM server wallet. As parameters to this function, pass:

Parameter	Type	Description
`client`	`PrivyHTTPClient`	Instance of the Privy HTTP client for your app.
`address`	`str`	Ethereum address of the wallet.
`wallet_id`	`str`	ID of the wallet.

Here’s an example showing how to integrate with eth-account:

from privy_eth_account import create_eth_account, PrivyHTTPClient
from eth_account.messages import encode_typed_data, encode_defunct

# Initialize your Privy client
client = PrivyHTTPClient(
    app_id="YOUR_APP_ID",
    app_secret="YOUR_APP_SECRET",
    authorization_key="YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_KEY"
)

# Create an account instance for a wallet
wallet_id = "insert-wallet-id"
wallet_address = "insert-wallet-address"
account = create_eth_account(client, wallet_address, wallet_id)

Once you created an account instance, you can use it to sign messages, sign transactions, and sign typed data:

Sign a message

# Signing a message (personal_sign)
message = encode_defunct(text="Hello, Privy!")
signed_message = account.sign_message(message)
print(f"Signed message: {signed_message}")

Sign a transaction

# Signing a transaction
transaction = {
    "to": "0x123...789",
    "value": 100,
    "chain_id": 8453
}
signed_tx = account.sign_transaction(transaction)
print(f"Signed transaction: {signed_tx}")

        },
        "contents": "Hello, Bob!"
    },
    "primaryType": "Mail"
}

# Sign the typed data using the full_message parameter
signed_typed_data = account.sign_typed_data(full_message=full_message)
print(f"Signed typed data: {signed_typed_data}")

import {createEthersSigner} from '@privy-io/server-auth/ethers';

// Initialize your Privy client
const privyClient = new PrivyClient(...);

// Initialize your ethers provider
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider('https://base.llamarpc.com');

// Get your wallet
const walletId = 'insert-wallet-id';
const wallet = await privyClient.walletApi.getWallet({id: walletId});
const address = wallet.address;

// Create an ethers signer
const signer = createEthersSigner({
    walletId,
    address,
    provider,
    privyClient,
});

Once you have an ethers signer, you can use it to sign messages and send transactions with the wallet like so:

const transaction: TransactionRequest = {
    to: TO_ADDRESS,
    value: 100,
    chainId: 8453,
};

const signedMessage = await signer.signMessage('foobar');
const signedTransaction = await signer.signTransaction(transaction);
const result = await signer.sendTransaction(transaction);

Integrating with `eth-account`

Privy EVM wallets natively integrate with the Python eth-account library, allowing you to use the library’s interfaces for signing messages, signing typed data, sending transactions, and more.

To integrate with eth-account, first install the library as a dependency:

# Initialize your Privy client
client = PrivyHTTPClient(
    app_id="YOUR_APP_ID",
    app_secret="YOUR_APP_SECRET",
    authorization_key="YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_KEY"
)

# Create an account instance for a wallet
wallet_id = "insert-wallet-id"
wallet_address = "insert-wallet-address"
account = create_eth_account(client, wallet_address, wallet_id)

Once you created an account instance, you can use it to sign messages, sign transactions, and sign typed data:
