# MetaMask

Wax signer library extending transaction signing possibilities by the Hive Wallet - a 3rd party Web-only MetaMask extension snap

We were able to leverage the MetaMask Snap SDK to create a Hive-compatible signer that works seamlessly with MetaMask Flask. This integration allows users to manage their Hive accounts and sign transactions directly within the MetaMask interface, providing a familiar and secure experience for those already using MetaMask for Ethereum and other EVM-compatible chains: Official Hive Wallet Snap

Please read the Knowledge Base for more details on how to use the Hive Wallet Snap. You can also check out our official dApp - Hive Bridge.

# Prerequisites

Configured MetaMask (Flask) wallet according to the tutorial

# Usage

import { createHiveChain } from "@hiveio/wax";
import MetaMaskProvider from "@hiveio/wax-signers-metamask";

const chain = await createHiveChain();

const provider = MetaMaskProvider.for(0);

// Create a transaction using the Wax Hive chain instance
const tx = await chain.createTransaction();

// Perform some operations, e.g. push the vote operation:
tx.pushOperation({
  vote_operation: {
    voter: "alice",
    author: "bob",
    permlink: "example-post",
    weight: 10000
  }
});

// Wait for the keychain to sign the transaction
 await provider.signTransaction(tx);

// broadcast the transaction
await chain.broadcast(tx);
