What are Blockchain Links? (Blinks)

Implementing Solana Blinks

Detect Action URLs:

• Implement a mechanism to detect and handle Action URLs.

const actionUrl = 'solana-action://https://actions.example.com/transaction';

if (actionUrl.startsWith('solana-action:')) {

// Process the Action URL

}

Render Blinks:

• Use Blinks clients to render the actions.

const blink = new BlinkClient();

blink.render(actionUrl);

Advanced Implementation

• Interstitial URLs: Use interstitial URLs to specify the client and action for signing.

const interstitialUrl = 'https://backpack.app/?action=solana-action:https://actions.example.com/transaction';

window.location.href = interstitialUrl;

• Custom Client Integration: Build custom clients to render and handle Action URLs in unique environments.

class CustomBlinkClient {

constructor() {

// Custom client logic

}

render(actionUrl) {

// Render the action URL

}

const customBlink = new CustomBlinkClient();

customBlink.render(actionUrl);

Basic Implementation

1. Install Blinks SDK:

# npm

npm install @dialectlabs/blinks

# yarn

yarn add @dialectlabs/blinks

2. Add the Blink Component to Your dApp:

import '@dialectlabs/blinks/index.css';

import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';

import { Action, Blink } from "@dialectlabs/blinks";

import { useAction } from '@dialectlabs/blinks/react';

const App = () => {

const actionApiUrl = 'https://actions.example.com/transaction';

const { action } = useAction(actionApiUrl, { rpcUrlOrConnection: YOUR_CONNECTION_OR_RPC });

return action ? <Blink action={action} websiteText={new URL(actionApiUrl).hostname} /> : null;

};

3. Use Action Hooks:

• useAction hook: Fetches the action, sets up an adapter, and refreshes the registry every 10 minutes.

• Ensure your component tree has <WalletProvider /> and <WalletModalProvider /> above the component using the hook.

Advanced Implementation

1. Using Multiple Actions:

import { useState, useEffect, useMemo } from 'react';

import { Action, Blink, type ActionAdapter } from "@dialectlabs/blinks";

import { useActionAdapter, useActionsRegistryInterval } from '@dialectlabs/blinks/react';

const App = () => {

const { isRegistryLoaded } = useActionsRegistryInterval();

const { adapter } = useActionAdapter(YOUR_RPC_URL_OR_CONNECTION);

return isRegistryLoaded ? <ManyActions adapter={adapter} /> : null;

};

const ManyActions = ({ adapter }) => {

const apiUrls = useMemo(() => ['https://actions.example.com/transaction1', 'https://actions.example.com/transaction2'], []);

const [actions, setActions] = useState([]);

useEffect(() => {

const fetchActions = async () => {

const promises = apiUrls.map(url => Action.fetch(url).catch(() => null));

const results = await Promise.all(promises);

setActions(results.filter(Boolean));

};

fetchActions();

}, [apiUrls]);

useEffect(() => {

actions.forEach(action => action.setAdapter(adapter));

}, [actions, adapter]);

return actions.map(action => (

</div>

));

};

2. Customizing Blink Styles:

import { Blink } from '@dialectlabs/blinks';

return <Blink stylePreset="x-dark" action={action} websiteText={new URL(action.url).hostname} />;

Override CSS Variables:

.blink.x-dark {

--blink-bg-primary: #202327;

--blink-button: #1d9bf0;

--blink-icon-primary: #6e767d;

// Add other overrides as needed

}

3. Render Blinks via Chrome Extensions:

import { setupTwitterObserver } from "@dialectlabs/blinks/ext/twitter";

import { ActionConfig, ActionContext } from "@dialectlabs/blinks";

setupTwitterObserver(new ActionConfig(YOUR_RPC_URL, {

signTransaction: async (tx, context) => { /* signing logic */ },

connect: async (context) => { /* connection logic */ }

}));
