Signers

A Signer in theta.js is an abstraction of a Theta Account, which can be used to sign transactions and send signed transactions to the Theta Network to execute state changing operations.

The default Signer is a Wallet. This will be used for 99% of cases.

Create a random wallet

const wallet = thetajs.Wallet.createRandom();

Create a wallet from a mnemonic phrase

const phrase = 'WORDS_SEPARATED_BY_SPACE';
const wallet = thetajs.Wallet.fromMnemonic(phrase);

Create a wallet from a private key

const privateKey = '0x000000...000000';
const wallet = new Wallet(privateKey);

Create a wallet from an encrypted JSON file

const json = "YOUR_JSON_HERE";
const password = "YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE";
const wallet = Wallet.fromEncryptedJson(json, password);

Connecting a (new) provider

If you change providers after creating a wallet, you can connect to the new provider. This will return a new wallet instance.

const connectedWallet = myWallet.connect(myOtherProvider);
