Configurations

Developers can develop wallet application using our web sdk. Install the dcent-web-connector from npm repository.

npm install dcent-web-connector

Developer can access api through window.DcentWebConnector object or DcentWebConnector object.

const DcentWebConnector = require('dcent-web-connector')

Requirement

• Must have a D'CENT Biometric wallet. You can get it at D'CENT website : https://dcentwallet.com/Shop

• You need to install the lastest D'CENT Bridge. D'CENT Bridge Download : http://bridge.dcentwallet.com/download

• D'CENT Biometric will be connected with your PC or Labtop using USB Cable(Micro USB 5-pin type).

Basic structure

Functions

All API functions return a Promise. When function processing is completed, it is resolved. If an error occurs, it is rejected. In either case, respond with a JSON object.

Returned JSON object type

{
    "header": {
        "version": "1.0",
        "request_from": "",
        "status": ""
    },
    "body": {
        "command" : "",
        "parameter" : {}
    }
}

Common Errors

If D'CENT wallet isn't connected via USB, you'll get the following error:

{
    "header": {
        "version": "1.0",
        "request_from": "ethereum",
        "status": "error"
    },
    "body": {
        "command": "transaction",
        "error": {
            "code": "user_cancel",
            "message": "user cancel"
        }
    }
}

When executing a function that requires user authentication, an error occurs if the user cancels the authentication. The following shows the user cancel error in the Ethereum signed Transaction.

{
    "header": {
        "version": "1.0",
        "request_from": "dcent-web",
        "status": "error"
    },
    "body": {
        "error": {
            "code": "pop-up_closed",
            "message": "Pop-up windows has been closed"
        }
    }
}

If the bridge service popup window is closed while calling a function and waiting, the following error occurs:

{
    "header": {
        "version": "1.0",
        "request_from": "wam",
        "status": "error"
    },
    "body": {
        "error": {
            "code": "no_device",
            "message": "D'CENT Biometric Wallet is not connected"
        }
    }
}

Basic functions

DcentWebConnector initialize

dcent-web-connector provides functions for using D'CENT Biometric Wallet.

var result
try{
    result = await DcentWebConnector.info()
}catch(e){
    result = e
}

info() returns :

{
    "header": {
        "version": "1.0",
        "request_from": "",
        "status": ""
    },
    "body": {
        "command" : "",
        "parameter" : {
            "version": "1.0.0",
            "isUsbAttached": "true | false"
        }
    }    
}

When the function is called from your web application, if D'CENT Bridge Service is not running as a pop-up, dcent-web-connector will automatically open a pop-up window and send a function request

Set TimeOut Time

  {
    "header": {
      "version": "1.0",
      "response_from": "dcent-web",
      "status": "error"
    },
    "body": {
      "error": {
        "code": "time_out",
        "message": "The function execution time has expired"
      }
    }
  }

All functions except setTimeOutMs function are called and then respond with JSON Object as below when timeout occurs.

  try {
    await dcent.setTimeOutMs(60000) // 60 sec, The default value is 60 seconds.
  } catch (e) {
    console.log(e)    
  }

You can set the timeout time by calling setTimeOutMs () as shown below.

Sets the maximum time the function will run. Once set the timeout Time, it is valid until the value is set again. The default value is 60 seconds.

Close pop-up window

dcent-web-connector will automatically open a pop-up window and send a function request. After each request to device is ended, it is recommended to close popup for enhancing user experience.

var result
try{
    result = await DcentWebConnector.info()    
}catch(e){
    result = e
}
// close pop-up window of D'CENT Bridge Service
DcentWebConnector.popupWindowClose()

Set Device Connection Listener

Set listener for device connection state. Before processing a functions request, dcent-web-connector check the device connection state. If the state is changed, the device connection listener will be called.

// device connection listener ( callback )
function connectionListener(state) {
    if (state === DcentWebConnector.state.CONNECTED) {
        console.log('DCENT is Connected');        
    } else if (state === DcentWebConnector.state.DISCONNECTED) {
        console.log('DCENT is Disconnected');  
    }
}
try {
    // set the device connection listener
    DcentWebConnector.setConnectionListener(connectionListener)
} catch(e) {    
}

Address Path

All address path in the API should follow BIP44 rules.

m / purpose' / coin_type' / account' / change / address_index
