# `@farcaster/connect-kit`

A React library that makes it easy to add Sign In With Farcaster to your application.

## Getting Started

### Installation

Install ConnectKit and its peer dependency [viem](https://viem.sh/).

```sh
npm install @farcaster/connect-kit viem
```

**Note:** ConnectKit is a [React](https://reactjs.org/) library. If you're using another frontend framework, take a look at the [`@farcaster/connect`](../connect/) client library instead.

### Import

Import styles and functions.

```tsx
import "@farcaster/connect-kit/styles.css";
import { ConnectKitProvider } from "@farcaster/connect-kit";
```

### Add Provider

Wrap your application with `ConnectKitProvider`.

```tsx
const config = {
  // For a production app, replace this with an Optimism Mainnet
  // RPC URL from a provider like Alchemy or Infura.
  rpcUrl: "https://mainnet.optimism.io",
  domain: "example.com",
  siweUri: "https://example.com/login",
};

const App = () => {
  return (
    <ConnectKitProvider config={config}>{/* Your App */}</ConnectKitProvider>
  );
};
```

## Add the connect button

Then, in your app, import and render the `ConnectButton` component.

```tsx
import { ConnectButton } from "@farcaster/connect-kit";

export const Login = ({ nonce }: { nonce: string }) => {
  return <ConnectButton nonce={nonce} />;
};
```

A Sign in with Farcaster button will be rendered. When the user clicks it they will be prompted to complete sign in using their Farcaster wallet application. Once they complete sign in a signed message will be returned to your callback.

## Examples

You can find official examples [here](https://github.com/farcasterxyz/connect-monorepo/tree/main/examples).

## Components

### `ConnectKitProvider`

Wrap your application in a `ConnectKitProvider` to use Farcaster Connect.

```tsx
const config = {
  domain: "example.com",
  siweUri: "https://example.com/login",
  rpcUrl: "https://mainnet.optimism.io",
  relay: "https://relay.farcaster.xyz",
};

const App = () => {
  return (
    <ConnectKitProvider config={config}>{/* Your App */}</ConnectKitProvider>
  );
};
```

import { ConnectButton } from "@farcaster/connect-kit";

export const Login = ({ nonce }: { nonce: string }) => {
  return (
    <ConnectButton
      nonce={nonce}

        console.log(`Hello, ${username}! Your fid is ${fid}.`)
      }
    />

### `useSignIn`

Hook for signing in a user. Connects to the relay server, generates a QR code and sign in link to present to the user, and polls relay server for wallet signature.

```tsx
import { useAppClient } from "@farcaster/connect-kit";

function App() {
  const {
    signIn,
    qrCodeUri,
    data: { username },
    onSuccess: ({ fid }) => console.log("Your fid:", fid);
  } = useSignIn();

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={signIn}>Sign In</button>
      {qrCodeUri && (
        <span>
          Scan this: <img src={qrCodeUri} />
