  • Transaction, unsigned transaction.

​

Typescript Example with NEAR JavaScript API

First install the NEAR JavaScript API. You can find the full documentation here: https://near.github.io/near-api-js Here a code sample to generate a signature via the DFNS TypeScript SDK: 
import { KeyType, PublicKey } from '@near-js/crypto'
import { JsonRpcProvider } from '@near-js/providers'
import { actionCreators, createTransaction } from '@near-js/transactions'
import { baseDecode } from '@near-js/utils'

const walletId = 'wa-172um-hgi5f-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
const wallet = await dfnsClient.wallets.getWallet({ walletId })

const provider = new JsonRpcProvider({url: process.env.NEAR_NODE_URL!})

const publicKey = new PublicKey({
  keyType: KeyType.ED25519,
  data: Buffer.from(wallet.address!, 'hex'),
})
const accessKey = await provider.viewAccessKey(wallet.address!, publicKey)
    
const nonce = accessKey.nonce++
const recentBlockHash = baseDecode(accessKey.block_hash)
const transaction = createTransaction(
  address,
  publicKey,
  'f04bc9ba7bc685d12cf87731cc4820c13920723b6a7736cf25b6bc898ccdc3a8',
  nonce,
  [actionCreators.transfer(1n)],
  recentBlockHash
)

const res = await dfnsClient.wallets.generateSignature({
  walletId,
  body: {
    kind: 'Transaction',
    transaction: `0x${Buffer.from(transaction.encode()).toString('hex')}`,
  },
})
