Learn how to set up popular Web3 libraries with Para. Choose your library below.

Prerequisites

Before setting up Web3 libraries, you need an authenticated Para session.

Install

npm install @getpara/react-native-wallet @getpara/ethers-v6-integration ethers
@getpara/ethers-v6-integration is a separate package — install it alongside @getpara/react-native-wallet.

Usage

Use the hook to create an ethers signer for your user’s Para embedded wallet or external wallet. For convenience, the and hooks wrap common signer methods in a React Query mutation.
import { useParaEthersSigner, useParaEthersSignMessage } from "@getpara/react-native-wallet/evm/ethers";
import { JsonRpcProvider } from "ethers";
import { Text, TouchableOpacity } from "react-native";

const provider = new JsonRpcProvider("https://ethereum-sepolia-rpc.publicnode.com");

function SignWithEthers() {
  const { ethersSigner, isLoading } = useParaEthersSigner({ provider });
  const { signMessageAsync, isPending } = useParaEthersSignMessage(ethersSigner);

  const handleSign = async () => {
    const signature = await signMessageAsync("Hello from Para!");
    console.log("Signature:", signature);
  };

  if (isLoading) return <Text>Loading...</Text>;
  return (
    <TouchableOpacity disabled={isPending} onPress={handleSign}>
      <Text>{isPending ? "Signing..." : "Sign Message"}</Text>
    </TouchableOpacity>
  );
}

Wallet Resolution

When no address or walletId is passed, the hook resolves the wallet in this order:
  1. Selected wallet — if the user selected an EVM wallet in the UI. If there is only one EVM wallet in the session, it is already selected by default
  2. First EVM wallet — the first available EVM wallet on the account
To target a specific wallet, pass address or walletId:
const { ethersSigner } = useParaEthersSigner({
  provider,
  address: "0x1234...",  // or walletId: "uuid-..."
});
