Enjin Wallet Daemon UI

License: LGPL 3.0 GitHub Release

This repository contains a flutter desktop application for macOS / Linux / Windows. It makes it easier to run the Enjin Wallet Daemon for people that want to try out Enjin Platform Cloud. For a production environment, we recommend that you run the Enjin Wallet Daemon on an isolated server.

Build from source

To build from source you need the following requirements:

You can then clone the repository and run the application through flutter with:

flutter run <platform>

Binaries

Or you can download the latest binaries directly, extract and run.

Security

The Enjin Wallet Daemon UI is just a wrapper around the Enjin Wallet Daemon. When you first start the application, it will download the latest release of the daemon and ask you for a password.

Warning

We generate an encryption key with the password. This key will be used to encrypt the database that contains your seed phrase. It is important that you DO NOT LOSE this password. There is absolutely no way to recover your information if you lose it. Also, make sure you use a safe password and do not share with anyone.

After you start the daemon for the first time, a new random seed phrase will be generated for you. You can find your generated seed under Configs >> Seed Phrase. The seed phrase together with the password Configs >> Password is all of the information needed to import your daemon wallet anywhere.

Note

Just the seed phrase is not enough to import or have access to your daemon wallet. You DO need both the seed phrase and the wallet password, not the UI password, please make sure you save those in a secure place. Anyone that may have access to those will have full control over your daemon wallet.

Enjin Platform Cloud

For your daemon to work with Enjin Platform Cloud you need to set up your Platform API keys into Configs. You may set one key for each of the environment: Enjin Blockchain and Canary Blockchain (testnet).

The Canary Blockchain is a test network and can be used for making tests without spending real money. It is strongly recommend that you start with the Canary Blockchain. You can use the Canary Faucet to get some initial funds and get started.

Self-hosted Platform

If you are self-hosting an Enjin Platform, you can input its URL and credentials in the Custom Endpoint field.

  • Platform Endpoint: You need to input the graphql endpoint of your platform.
  • Authentication Token: The token that you use to access it. If you are using our starter repository this token (BASIC_AUTH_TOKEN) can be found here, it will be auto generated after you first start the platform.
  • Blockchain Node: That's the RPC url to a node, it needs to be a websocket url and you need to include the port. Example: you can use wss://rpc.matrix.blockchain.enjin.io:443 for Enjin Blockchain and wss://rpc.matrix.canary.enjin.io:443 for Canary Blockchain.

Locking

It is possible to keep running the daemon while the interface is locked. You only need to click in the lock button. This lock screen will also appear everytime you start the application after the first time.

The password used here is what you have input in the onboard. Remember if you lose it, you will need to reset the platform UI and you will lose access to your daemon wallet.

Background service

Since the UI is only a wrapper around the Enjin Wallet Daemon, both applications are run in separate processes. If you close the UI normally through the close button it will stop the service automatically. BUT if you force close it through the task manager or if it crashes for any reason, the daemon service may still keep running in the background.

If you want to check if the service is still running you can search for the wallet process in the task manager.
