Creator Platform

This project demonstrates how you can connect your web2 backend and integrate it with web3 using sign in with ethereum.

Tools:

• React SDK: To access the connected wallet, switch the user's network, and claim an NFT from our Edition Drop collection.
• Auth: To ask users to sign a message and verify they own the wallet they claim to be, while on the server-side.

Using This Template

Create a project using this example:

npx thirdweb create --template creator-platform

• Add your wallet's private key as an environment variable in a .env.local file called PRIVATE_KEY:
• Create a project on mongoDB.
• Create a new database in your mongoDB project, copy the connection url and add it in .env.local file.

PRIVATE_KEY=your-wallet-private-key
DATABASE_URL=mongodb-connection-url

How It Works

Using Auth, we ask users to sign in using their web3 wallet. Once they sign in, we show them some inputs to create their profile. Then, we make an api call and save the user's profile in the database.

We need to create a configuration file that contains our wallet's private key (used to generate messages for users to sign) and our site's domain name:

This file is called auth.config.js and is at the root of the project.

import { ThirdwebAuth } from "@thirdweb-dev/auth/next";
import { domainName } from "./const/yourDetails";

export const { ThirdwebAuthHandler, getUser } = ThirdwebAuth({
  privateKey: process.env.PRIVATE_KEY || "",
  domain: domainName,
});

Finally, we have a catch-all API route called pages/api/auth/[...thirdweb].js, which exports the ThirdwebAuthHandler to manage all of the required auth endpoints like login and logout.

import { ThirdwebAuthHandler } from "../../../auth.config";

export default ThirdwebAuthHandler();

Setting Up the Auth SDK

Inside the _app.jsx file, we configure the Auth SDK in the ThirdwebProvider component that wraps our application, allowing us to use the hooks of the SDK throughout our application:
