Demo Viem 🤝 Passkeys

This repo contains a sample application for demonstration purposes only, walking through how to create sub-organizations, create private keys, and sign with the @turnkey/viem signer, using passkeys. Please feel free to clone or fork this repo, or file an issue if there are improvements to be made! ❤️

The flow showcases 3 ways to make requests to Turnkey:

• the initial request to create a new sub-organization is authenticated in the NextJS backend with an API signature (using API_PUBLIC_KEY/API_PRIVATE_KEY from your .env.local file)
• the request to log back in is signed on the frontend with your passkey, but it's passed to the NextJS backend as a signed request (the body, stamp, and url are POSTed). This lets the backend submit this request on your behalf, get your sub-organization ID, and fetch details about your wallet (parent organizations have read-only access to their sub-organizations).
• the request to sign a message is done 100% client-side via a Turnkey Viem signer (see @turnkey/viem): it's signed with your passkey, and submitted from the browser to the Turnkey API directly.

If you want to see a Viem demo with API keys instead of passkeys, head to the example with-viem. A demo using passkeys with Ethers can be found here. See our SDK repo for additional packages and examples.

Getting started

1/ Clone or fork this repo

Make sure you have Node.js installed locally; we recommend using Node v18+.

$ git clone https://github.com/tkhq/demo-viem-passkeys.git
$ corepack enable  # Install `pnpm`
$ pnpm install # Install dependencies
$ pnpm run build  # Compile source code

2/ Setting up Turnkey

The first step is to set up your Turnkey organization and account. By following the Quickstart guide, you should have:

• A public/private API key pair for Turnkey
• An organization ID

Once you've gathered these values, add them to a new .env.local file. Notice that your API private key should be securely managed and never be committed to git.

$ cp .env.local.example .env.local

Now open .env.local and add the missing environment variables:

• TURNKEY_API_PUBLIC_KEY
• TURNKEY_API_PRIVATE_KEY
• NEXT_PUBLIC_TURNKEY_API_BASE_URL
• NEXT_PUBLIC_ORGANIZATION_ID

3/ Running the app

$ pnpm run dev

This command will start a NextJS app on localhost. If you navigate to http://localhost:3000 in your browser, you can follow the prompts to create a sub organization, create a private key for the newly created sub-organization, and sign a message using your passkey with a Viem custom account!
