how to return wallet accounts to a website via EIP-1193 ?

[alekhanetweb]

we are creating a wallet using ethers.js . we open a website in a webview and hook into the EIP 1193 provider. this part is working - the wallet (in React Native) detects actions on the website and responds.

But what we are not able to get right is the returning of the wallet data. we tried a promise, wrapping json-rpc data in a promise, etc but we arent able to make it work. i think its something really simple, but we are really stuck.

Would appreciate any help. this is the code - https://github.com/alekhanetweb/wallet/blob/javascript_insertion_mock_connect/App.js#L132-L142

we have been using pancakeswap website and https://metamask.github.io/test-dapp/ to test

If you are trying to expose an EIP-1193 interface, you have to create an object which has a .request method, which will will be hooked internally to your RN app to trap the resolve and reject methods the Promise creates, the. when you handle the request, you process it and pass it back to be passed into the resolve/reject you stored earlier for the matching id.

It’s a bit complicated to explain, but it’s definitely doable and I’ve done it a few times.

This is from a long time ago, before EIP-1193, and it is written in objective-C, but this might help.

But you will have to experiment a bit to really get the hang of wrapping the Promise, serializing and using message passing with multiplexing. :)
