Portal Dialect Message Tools - tools and components for Dialect Messaging integrations with Solana

This library contains 3 main parts:

• A messaging library which wraps Dialect and handles common use cases
• A Svelte component for integrating Dialect's wallet-based messaging into apps that need chat
• Receipts for Solana Pay items.

The library is in TypeScript with minimal dependencies.

This is our production transaction parsing code used in Portal Wallet, we're releasing it for the first time here, so bear with us as we get it established as a standalone library!

Messaging library

Mosy of these are small convenience tweaks to make Dialect easier to use, they'll hopefully be included in a new version of the Dialect SDK, at which point we can delete them!

The library eliminates the need to create the dialectSDK item, instead creating the SDK item as needed.

getOrMakeThread(keyPair, walletAddress) - creates or retrieves the thread with the user at walletAddress

getMessagesForUser(keyPair, walletAddress) - retrieves all messages in a thread with the user at walletAddress. Will make a thread if needed.

sendDialectMessage(thread, text) - send a message to the user on the thread.

getTransactionsAndMessagesByDays(Array<messages>>) - people pften want to see their messaging history over time. This takes messages - which can be Dialect messsages or anything else with a date and id key - and

A Svelte component for messaging

• New message elements appear at the bottom of the chat area.

• When the chat area isn't scrolled all the way down, existing elements stay on screen (ie, no scrolling happens) when new elements are added

• When the chat area is scrolled all the way down, and new elements are added, the chat area scrolls down.

See the screenshots!

Receipts for Solana Pay items inside transactions

This library can fetch Solana Pay (ie Decaf Point of Sale) receipts using Dialect, to display inline. See receipts.ts.
