Detect the provider
If you use the @metamask/detect-provider
module, it reliably detects both the mobile and extension provider. If you don't use @metamask/detect-provider
, you must detect the mobile provider manually. You can manually detect the mobile and extension provider with the following code:
if (window.ethereum) {
handleEthereum();
} else {
window.addEventListener('ethereum#initialized', handleEthereum, {
once: true,
});
// If the event is not dispatched by the end of the timeout,
// the user probably doesn't have MetaMask installed.
setTimeout(handleEthereum, 3000); // 3 seconds
}
function handleEthereum() {
const { ethereum } = window;
if (ethereum && ethereum.isMetaMask) {
console.log('Ethereum successfully detected!');
// Access the decentralized web!
} else {
console.log('Please install MetaMask!');
}
}
