Readme

title: @solana/connector description: Production-ready wallet connector for Solana applications

ConnectorKit is your Solana wallet infrastructure. A headless, framework-agnostic wallet connector built on Wallet Standard that just work.

npm Bundle Size TypeScript

Why ConnectorKit?

  • Wallet Standard First: Built on the official Wallet Standard protocol for universal wallet compatibility
  • Modern & Legacy Support: Works with both @solana/kit (web3.js 2.0) and @solana/web3.js (legacy)
  • Framework Agnostic: React hooks + headless core for Vue, Svelte, or vanilla JavaScript
  • Production Ready: Event system for analytics, health checks for diagnostics, error boundaries for React apps
  • Enhanced Storage: Automatic validation, SSR fallback, and error handling out of the box
  • Mobile Support: Built-in Solana Mobile Wallet Adapter integration

Quick Start

1. Install

npm install @solana/connector
# or
pnpm add @solana/connector
# or
yarn add @solana/connector
# or 
bun add @solana/connector

2. Setup Provider (once in your app root)

'use client';

import { useMemo } from 'react';
import { AppProvider } from '@solana/connector/react';
import { getDefaultConfig, getDefaultMobileConfig } from '@solana/connector/headless';

export function Providers({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
    const connectorConfig = useMemo(() => {
        // Optional: Get custom RPC URL from environment variable
        const customRpcUrl = process.env.SOLANA_RPC_URL;

        // Optional: Create custom cluster configuration
        const clusters = customRpcUrl
            ? [
                  {
                      id: 'solana:mainnet' as const,
                      label: 'Mainnet (Custom RPC)',
                      name: 'mainnet-beta' as const,
                      url: customRpcUrl,
                  },
                  {
                      id: 'solana:devnet' as const,
                      label: 'Devnet',
                      name: 'devnet' as const,
                      url: 'https://api.devnet.solana.com',
                  },
              ]
            : undefined;

        return getDefaultConfig({
            appName: 'My App',
            appUrl: 'https://myapp.com',
            autoConnect: true,
            enableMobile: true,
            clusters,
        });
    }, []);

    const mobile = useMemo(
        () =>
            getDefaultMobileConfig({
                appName: 'My App',
                appUrl: 'https://myapp.com',
            }),
        [],
    );

    return (
        <AppProvider connectorConfig={connectorConfig} mobile={mobile}>
            {children}
        </AppProvider>
    );
}

3. Use Hooks (in any component)

'use client';

import { useConnector, useAccount } from '@solana/connector';

export function ConnectButton() {
    const { wallets, select, disconnect, connected, connecting, selectedWallet, selectedAccount } = useConnector();
    const { address, formatted, copy } = useAccount();

    if (connecting) {
        return <button disabled>Connecting...</button>;
    }

    if (!connected) {
        return (
            <div>
                {wallets.map(w => (
                    <button key={w.wallet.name} onClick={() => select(w.wallet.name)}>
                        Connect {w.wallet.name}
                    </button>
                ))}
            </div>
        );
    }

    return (
        <div>
            <button onClick={copy}>{formatted}</button>
            <button onClick={disconnect}>Disconnect</button>
        </div>
    );
}

That's it! You're ready to go. Everything else below is optional.

Core Hooks

These are the main hooks you'll use in your components.

useConnector()

Main hook for wallet connection and state.

import { useConnector } from '@solana/connector';

function Component() {
    const {
        // State
        wallets, // WalletInfo[] - All available wallets
        selectedWallet, // Wallet | null - Currently connected wallet
        selectedAccount, // string | null - Currently selected account address
        accounts, // AccountInfo[] - Connected accounts
        connected, // boolean - Connection status
        connecting, // boolean - Connecting in progress

        // Actions
        select, // (walletName: string) => Promise<void>
        disconnect, // () => Promise<void>
    } = useConnector();
}

Real Example - Connect Button with wallet selection:

'use client';

import { useConnector } from '@solana/connector';
import { useState } from 'react';

export function ConnectButton() {
    const [isModalOpen, setIsModalOpen] = useState(false);
    const { connected, connecting, selectedWallet, selectedAccount, wallets, select } = useConnector();

    if (connecting) {
        return <button disabled>Connecting...</button>;
    }

    if (connected && selectedAccount && selectedWallet) {
        const shortAddress = `${selectedAccount.slice(0, 4)}...${selectedAccount.slice(-4)}`;
        return (
            <div>
                <span>{shortAddress}</span>
                <button onClick={() => select(selectedWallet.name)}>Switch Wallet</button>
            </div>
        );
    }

    return (
        <>
            <button onClick={() => setIsModalOpen(true)}>Connect Wallet</button>
            {/* Wallet selection modal */}
        </>
    );
}

useAccount()

Hook for working with the connected account.

import { useAccount } from '@solana/connector';

function Component() {
    const {
        address, // string | null - Full wallet address
        formatted, // string - Shortened address (e.g., "5Gv8...x3kF")
        copy, // () => Promise<boolean> - Copy address to clipboard
        copied, // boolean - True for 2s after copying
        connected, // boolean - Connection status
        accounts, // AccountInfo[] - All accounts
        selectAccount, // (address: string) => Promise<void>
    } = useAccount();
}

Real Example - Account Switcher for multi-account wallets:

'use client';

import { useAccount } from '@solana/connector';

export function AccountSwitcher() {
    const { accounts, address, selectAccount, connected } = useAccount();

    if (!connected || accounts.length <= 1) {
        return null;
    }

    return (
        <select
            value={address || ''}
            onChange={e => selectAccount(e.target.value)}
        >
            {accounts.map(account => (
                <option key={account.address} value={account.address}>
                    {account.address.slice(0, 6)}...{account.address.slice(-6)}
                </option>
            ))}
        </select>
    );
}

useCluster()

Hook for managing Solana network/cluster.

import { useCluster } from '@solana/connector';

function Component() {
    const {
        cluster, // SolanaCluster | null - Active cluster
        clusters, // SolanaCluster[] - Available clusters
        setCluster, // (id: SolanaClusterId) => Promise<void>
        isMainnet, // boolean - Convenience flags
        isDevnet, // boolean
        rpcUrl, // string - RPC endpoint URL
        explorerUrl, // string - Solana Explorer base URL
    } = useCluster();
}

Real Example - Network Selector:

'use client';

import { useCluster } from '@solana/connector';

export function ClusterSelector() {
    const { cluster, clusters, setCluster } = useCluster();

    return (
        <select
            value={cluster?.id || ''}
            onChange={e => setCluster(e.target.value as SolanaClusterId)}
        >
            {clusters.map(c => (
                <option key={c.id} value={c.id}>
                    {c.label}
                </option>
            ))}
        </select>
    );
}

useWalletInfo()

Hook for accessing current wallet metadata.

import { useWalletInfo } from '@solana/connector';

function Component() {
    const {
        name, // string | null - Wallet name
        icon, // string | undefined - Wallet icon URL
        wallet, // WalletInfo | null - Full wallet info
        connecting, // boolean - Connection in progress
    } = useWalletInfo();
}

Transaction Signing

ConnectorKit provides powerful transaction signing capabilities with support for both legacy @solana/web3.js and modern @solana/kit APIs.

Modern API (@solana/kit)

Use useKitTransactionSigner() for modern, type-safe transaction building:

'use client';

import { useState } from 'react';
import {
    address,
    createSolanaRpc,
    pipe,
    createTransactionMessage,
    setTransactionMessageFeePayerSigner,
    setTransactionMessageLifetimeUsingBlockhash,
    appendTransactionMessageInstructions,
    sendAndConfirmTransactionFactory,
    getSignatureFromTransaction,
    signTransactionMessageWithSigners,
    createSolanaRpcSubscriptions,
    lamports,
    assertIsTransactionWithBlockhashLifetime,
} from '@solana/kit';
import { getTransferSolInstruction } from '@solana-program/system';
import { useKitTransactionSigner, useCluster, useConnectorClient, LAMPORTS_PER_SOL } from '@solana/connector';

export function ModernSolTransfer() {
    const { signer, ready } = useKitTransactionSigner();
    const { cluster } = useCluster();
    const client = useConnectorClient();
    const [signature, setSignature] = useState<string | null>(null);

    async function handleTransfer(recipientAddress: string, amount: number) {
        if (!signer || !client) {
            throw new Error('Wallet not connected');
        }

        // Get RPC URL from connector client
        const rpcUrl = client.getRpcUrl();
        if (!rpcUrl) {
            throw new Error('No RPC endpoint configured');
        }

        // Create RPC client using web3.js 2.0
        const rpc = createSolanaRpc(rpcUrl);
        const rpcSubscriptions = createSolanaRpcSubscriptions(rpcUrl.replace('http', 'ws'));

        // Get recent blockhash
        const { value: latestBlockhash } = await rpc.getLatestBlockhash().send();

        // Convert SOL to lamports
        const amountInLamports = lamports(BigInt(Math.floor(amount * Number(LAMPORTS_PER_SOL))));

        // Create transfer instruction
        const transferInstruction = getTransferSolInstruction({
            source: signer,
            destination: address(recipientAddress),
            amount: amountInLamports,
        });

        // Build transaction message
        const transactionMessage = pipe(
            createTransactionMessage({ version: 0 }),
            tx => setTransactionMessageFeePayerSigner(signer, tx),
            tx => setTransactionMessageLifetimeUsingBlockhash(latestBlockhash, tx),
            tx => appendTransactionMessageInstructions([transferInstruction], tx),
        );

        // Sign transaction
        const signedTransaction = await signTransactionMessageWithSigners(transactionMessage);

        // Send and confirm
        assertIsTransactionWithBlockhashLifetime(signedTransaction);
        await sendAndConfirmTransactionFactory({ rpc, rpcSubscriptions })(signedTransaction, {
            commitment: 'confirmed',
        });

        const transactionSignature = getSignatureFromTransaction(signedTransaction);
        setSignature(transactionSignature);
    }

    return (
        <div>
            {/* Your form UI */}
            <button onClick={() => handleTransfer('...', 0.1)} disabled={!ready}>
                Send SOL
            </button>
            {signature && <div>Transaction: {signature}</div>}
        </div>
    );
}

Legacy API (@solana/web3.js)

Use useTransactionSigner() for legacy web3.js compatibility:

import { useTransactionSigner } from '@solana/connector';
import { Transaction, SystemProgram } from '@solana/web3.js';

function SendTransaction() {
    const { signer, ready } = useTransactionSigner();

    const handleSend = async () => {
        if (!signer) return;

        const transaction = new Transaction().add(
            SystemProgram.transfer({
                fromPubkey: signer.address,
                toPubkey: recipientPubkey,
                lamports: 1000000,
            })
        );

        const signature = await signer.signAndSendTransaction(transaction);
        console.log('Transaction sent:', signature);
    };

    return <button onClick={handleSend} disabled={!ready}>Send</button>;
}

UI Elements

ConnectorKit provides composable UI elements that handle data fetching and state management for you. Use the render prop pattern to customize the UI.

Available Elements

  • BalanceElement - Display SOL balance with refresh
  • ClusterElement - Network/cluster selector
  • TokenListElement - List of SPL tokens
  • TransactionHistoryElement - Recent transaction history
  • DisconnectElement - Disconnect button
  • AccountElement - Account display and switcher
  • WalletListElement - List of available wallets

Example: Wallet Dropdown

'use client';

import {
    BalanceElement,
    ClusterElement,
    TokenListElement,
    TransactionHistoryElement,
    DisconnectElement,
} from '@solana/connector/react';

export function WalletDropdown() {
    return (
        <div className="wallet-dropdown">
            {/* Balance */}
            <BalanceElement
                render={({ solBalance, isLoading, refetch }) => (
                    <div>
                        <div>Balance: {isLoading ? '...' : `${solBalance?.toFixed(4)} SOL`}</div>
                        <button onClick={refetch}>Refresh</button>
                    </div>
                )}
            />

            {/* Network Selector */}
            <ClusterElement
                render={({ cluster, clusters, setCluster }) => (
                    <select value={cluster?.id} onChange={e => setCluster(e.target.value)}>
                        {clusters.map(c => (
                            <option key={c.id} value={c.id}>
                                {c.label}
                            </option>
                        ))}
                    </select>
                )}
            />

            {/* Tokens */}
            <TokenListElement
                limit={5}
                render={({ tokens, isLoading }) => (
                    <div>
                        {isLoading ? (
                            <div>Loading tokens...</div>
                        ) : (
                            tokens.map(token => (
                                <div key={token.mint}>
                                    {token.symbol}: {token.formatted}
                                </div>
                            ))
                        )}
                    </div>
                )}
            />

            {/* Transaction History */}
            <TransactionHistoryElement
                limit={5}
                render={({ transactions, isLoading }) => (
                    <div>
                        {isLoading ? (
                            <div>Loading transactions...</div>
                        ) : (
                            transactions.map(tx => (
                                <a key={tx.signature} href={tx.explorerUrl} target="_blank">
                                    {tx.type} - {tx.formattedTime}
                                </a>
                            ))
                        )}
                    </div>

            {/* Disconnect */}
            <DisconnectElement

                )}
            />
        </div>
    );
}

Configuration

Basic Configuration

import { getDefaultConfig } from '@solana/connector';

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App', // Required
    appUrl: 'https://myapp.com', // Optional: for mobile wallet adapter
    autoConnect: true, // Auto-reconnect (default: true)
    network: 'mainnet-beta', // Initial network (default: 'mainnet-beta')
    enableMobile: true, // Mobile Wallet Adapter (default: true)
    debug: false, // Debug logging
});

Network Selection

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    network: 'devnet', // 'mainnet-beta' | 'devnet' | 'testnet' | 'localnet'
});

Custom RPC Endpoints

import { getDefaultConfig } from '@solana/connector';

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    clusters: [
        {
            id: 'solana:mainnet' as const,
            label: 'Mainnet (Custom RPC)',
            name: 'mainnet-beta' as const,
            url: 'https://my-custom-rpc.com',
        },
        {
            id: 'solana:devnet' as const,
            label: 'Devnet',
            name: 'devnet' as const,
            url: 'https://api.devnet.solana.com',
        },
    ],
});

Mobile Wallet Adapter

import { getDefaultMobileConfig } from '@solana/connector/headless';

const mobile = getDefaultMobileConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    appUrl: 'https://myapp.com',
});

<AppProvider connectorConfig={config} mobile={mobile}>
    {children}
</AppProvider>

Security Considerations

RPC API Key Protection

If you're using a paid RPC provider (Helius, QuickNode, etc.), avoid exposing your API key client-side. Anyone can grab it from the browser's network tab.

Solution: RPC Proxy Route

Create an API route that proxies RPC requests, keeping the API key server-side:

// app/api/rpc/route.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';

// Server-side only - not exposed to client
const RPC_URL = process.env.SOLANA_RPC_URL || 'https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com';

export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
    try {
        const body = await request.json();

        const response = await fetch(RPC_URL, {
            method: 'POST',
            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
            body: JSON.stringify(body),
        });

        const data = await response.json();
        return NextResponse.json(data);
    } catch (error) {
        return NextResponse.json({ error: 'RPC request failed' }, { status: 500 });
    }
}

Then configure the connector to use the proxy:

'use client';

import { getDefaultConfig } from '@solana/connector/headless';

// Get origin for absolute URL (Kit requires full URLs)
const getOrigin = () => {
    if (typeof window !== 'undefined') return window.location.origin;
    return 'http://localhost:3000';
};

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    clusters: [
        {
            id: 'solana:mainnet' as const,
            label: 'Mainnet',
            name: 'mainnet-beta' as const,
            url: `${getOrigin()}/api/rpc`, // Proxy URL
        },
        // ... other clusters
    ],

Token Image Privacy

When using useTokens() or useTransactions(), token metadata (including logo URLs) is fetched from external APIs. By default, these image URLs are returned directly, which means when your users' browsers fetch these images, the image host can see:

  • User IP addresses
  • Request timing (when users viewed their tokens)
  • User agent and browser information

This could potentially be exploited by malicious token creators who set tracking URLs in their token metadata.

Image Proxy Configuration

To protect user privacy, you can configure an image proxy that fetches images on behalf of your users:

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    imageProxy: '/_next/image?w=64&q=75&url=', // Next.js Image Optimization
});

When imageProxy is set, all token image URLs returned by useTokens() and useTransactions() will be automatically transformed:

// Original URL from token metadata
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../token-logo.png

// Transformed URL (when imageProxy is set)
/_next/image?w=64&q=75&url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2F...%2Ftoken-logo.png

Common Proxy Options

Service Configuration
Next.js Image imageProxy: '/_next/image?w=64&q=75&url='
Cloudflare imageProxy: '/cdn-cgi/image/width=64,quality=75/'
imgproxy imageProxy: 'https://imgproxy.example.com/insecure/fill/64/64/'
Custom API imageProxy: '/api/image-proxy?url='

CoinGecko API & Rate Limits

The useTokens() hook fetches token prices from CoinGecko. CoinGecko has rate limits that may affect your application:

Rate Limits (as of 2024)

Tier Rate Limit API Key Required
Free (Public) 10-30 requests/minute No
Demo 30 requests/minute Yes (free)
Analyst 500 requests/minute Yes (paid)
Pro 1000+ requests/minute Yes (paid)

Handling Rate Limits

ConnectorKit automatically handles rate limits with:

  • Exponential backoff: Retries with increasing delays
  • Jitter: Random delay added to prevent thundering herd
  • Retry-After header: Honors server-specified wait times
  • Bounded timeout: Won't block forever (default 30s max)

Adding a CoinGecko API Key

For higher rate limits, add a free Demo API key from CoinGecko:

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    coingecko: {
        apiKey: process.env.COINGECKO_API_KEY, // Demo or Pro API key
        isPro: false, // Set to true for Pro API keys
    },
});

Advanced Configuration

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    coingecko: {
        // API key for higher rate limits (optional)
        apiKey: process.env.COINGECKO_API_KEY,
        
        // Set to true if using a Pro API key (default: false for Demo keys)
        isPro: false,
        
        // Maximum retry attempts on 429 (default: 3)
        maxRetries: 3,
        
        // Base delay for exponential backoff in ms (default: 1000)
        baseDelay: 1000,
        
        // Maximum total timeout in ms (default: 30000)
        maxTimeout: 30000,
    },
});

Caching

Token prices are cached for 60 seconds to minimize API calls. The retry logic only applies to uncached token IDs, so frequently-viewed tokens won't trigger additional API calls.

Advanced Usage

Headless Client (Vue, Svelte, Vanilla JS)

Use ConnectorClient for non-React frameworks:

import { ConnectorClient, getDefaultConfig } from '@solana/connector/headless';

// Create client
const client = new ConnectorClient(getDefaultConfig({ appName: 'My App' }));

// Get state
const state = client.getSnapshot();
console.log('Wallets:', state.wallets);

// Connect
await client.select('Phantom');

// Subscribe to changes
const unsubscribe = client.subscribe(state => {
    console.log('State updated:', state);
});

// Disconnect
await client.disconnect();

// Cleanup
client.destroy();

Custom Storage (React Native, SSR)

Storage uses nanostores with built-in enhancements that are automatically applied:

  • Validation (Solana address format checking)
  • Error handling (catches localStorage quota errors, private browsing)
  • SSR fallback (uses memory storage when localStorage unavailable)

Most users don't need to configure storage. Only customize for:

  • React Native (custom storage backend)
  • Additional validation rules
  • Custom error tracking
import { getDefaultConfig, createEnhancedStorageWallet, EnhancedStorageAdapter } from '@solana/connector';

const config = getDefaultConfig({
    appName: 'My App',
    storage: {
        wallet: new EnhancedStorageAdapter(
            createEnhancedStorageWallet({
                validator: walletName => {
                    // Custom validation
                    return walletName !== null && walletName.length > 0;
                },
                onError: error => {
                    // Custom error tracking
                    Sentry.captureException(error);
                },
            }),
        ),
    },
});
