LocalWallet

Loads or generates a local wallet on the user's device. This wallet is encrypted with a password and stored in local storage. It is meant to be used as a guest wallet, and is not recommended for long-term storage of funds.

Usage​

using Thirdweb;

public async void ConnectWallet()
{
    // Reference to your Thirdweb SDK
    var sdk = ThirdwebManager.Instance.SDK;

    // Configure the connection
    var connection = new WalletConnection(
      provider: WalletProvider.LocalWallet,      // The wallet provider you want to connect to (Required)
      chainId: 1,                                // The chain you want to connect to (Required)
      password: "myEpicPassword"                 // Used to encrypt your Local Wallet, defaults to device uid (Optional)
    );

    // Connect the wallet
    string address = await sdk.wallet.Connect(connection);
}
