TON Connect for JS

This guide will help you integrate TON Connect into your Javascript app for user authentication and transactions.

If using React for your DApp, look at the TON Connect UI React SDK.

If you're using Vue for your DApp, look at the TON Connect UI Vue SDK.

Implementation

Installation

Add the script to the <HEAD> element of your website:



<script src="https://unpkg.com/@tonconnect/ui@latest/dist/tonconnect-ui.min.js"></script>

TON Connect initiation

After installing the package, create a manifest.json file for your app. More information on how to create a manifest.json file can be found here.

Add a button with a ton-connect id to connect to the wallet:

<div id="ton-connect"></div>

After this tag, add a script for tonConnectUI in the <body> part of the app page:

<script>
const tonConnectUI = new TON_CONNECT_UI.TonConnectUI({
manifestUrl: 'https://<YOUR_APP_URL>/tonconnect-manifest.json',
buttonRootId: 'ton-connect'
});
</script>

Connect to the wallet

The 'ton-connect' button in buttonRootId will automatically manage clicks.

But you can open connect modal programmatically, for example, after clicking on the custom button:

<script>
async function connectToWallet() {
const connectedWallet = await tonConnectUI.connectWallet();
// Do something with connectedWallet if needed
console.log(connectedWallet);
}

// Call the function
connectToWallet().catch(error => {
console.error("Error connecting to wallet:", error);
});
</script>

Redirects

Customizing return strategy

To redirect the user to a specific URL after connection, you can customize your return strategy.

Telegram Mini Apps

To redirect the user to a Telegram Mini App after wallet connection use the twaReturnUrl option:

tonConnectUI.uiOptions = {
twaReturnUrl: 'https://t.me/YOUR_APP_NAME'
};

UI customization

TonConnect UI provides an interface that should be familiar and recognizable to the user when using various apps. However, the app developer can modify this interface to keep it consistent with the app's interface.

Usage

Let's look at the example of using the TON Connect UI in the app.

Sending messages

Here's an example of sending a transaction using the TON Connect UI:

import TonConnectUI from '@tonconnect/ui';

const tonConnectUI = new TonConnectUI({ //connect application
manifestUrl: 'https://<YOUR_APP_URL>/tonconnect-manifest.json',
buttonRootId: '<YOUR_CONNECT_BUTTON_ANCHOR_ID>'
});

const transaction = {
validUntil: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + 60, // 60 sec
messages: [
{
address: "EQABa48hjKzg09hN_HjxOic7r8T1PleIy1dRd8NvZ3922MP0", // destination address
amount: "20000000" //Toncoin in nanotons
}
]
}

const result = await tonConnectUI.sendTransaction(transaction)
