React module that lets you access the state of Web Monetization
Examples
This repo contains several usage examples in example/
. To host the site and
view the examples, run:
cd example
npm install
npm start

Usage
Enabling Web Monetization
You will still need to insert the Web Monetization meta tag into your
document's <head>
. This should be done in the HTML file that react renders
into, not in React.
For a specification of this meta tag, see Interledger RFC 0028
Web Monetization State Hook
This hook will update when the first web-monetization micropayment occurs on the page and the state goes from pending
to started
.
import React from 'react'
import { useMonetizationState } from 'react-web-monetization'
const MyMessage = props => {
const monetization = useMonetizationState()
return <p>
{monetization.state === 'stopped' && 'Stopped'}
{monetization.state === 'pending' && 'Loading...'}
{monetization.state === 'started' && 'Thanks for supporting our site!'}
{!monetization.state && 'Sign up for Coil to support our site!'}
</p>
}
export default MyMessage
Web Monetization Counter Hook
This hook will update on each web-monetization micropayment that occurs. It tracks a running total for how much has been paid out to the page.
You should only use this hook if you're updating on every micropayment. If you only need a boolean on whether or not payment is happening, use useMonetizationState
import React from 'react'
import { useMonetizationCounter } from 'react-web-monetization'
const MyCounter = props => {
const monetization = useMonetizationCounter()
return <p>
{(monetization.totalAmount / (10 ** monetization.assetScale)).toFixed(monetization.assetScale)}
{monetization.assetCode}
</p>
}
export default MyCounter
Web Monetization Conditional Components
Web Monetization Conditional Components allow you to wrap react components so that they display if Web Monetization is enabled/disabled/pending.
They're intended for simple situations where you don't want to write the same code using hooks over and over. Their functionality can easily be replicated by using the Web Monetization State hook.
See an example of their usage here.
import React from 'react'
import { IfWebMonetized } from 'react-web-monetization'
const MyMessage = props => {
return <IfWebMonetized>
<p>Thanks for supporting me!</p>
</IfWebMonetized>
}
import React from 'react'
import { IfNotWebMonetized } from 'react-web-monetization'
const MyMessage = props => {
return <IfNotWebMonetized>
<p>Please support me with Web Monetization!</p>
</IfNotWebMonetized>
}
Init Global Web Monetization State
Sometimes you don't load in any monetization hooks at page load, but you want
to start listening for web monetization events anyways. You can use the
initGlobalWebMonetizationState
function to force the module to start
listening for global web monetization events.
import React from 'react'
import { initGlobalWebMonetizationState } from 'react-web-monetization'
initGlobalWebMonetizationState()
