Quickstart & connect

Doge Soft injects a single object, window.dogesoft, into the page — from the browser extension on desktop, and from the DogeSoft app's in-app browser on mobile. Same object, same methods on both. It's the only thing you need to feature-detect, connect, and start reading a user's Dogecoin account. No SDK install, no iframe, no API key.

1. Detect the provider

The provider is injected before your page's scripts run (at document start in the extension; on onPageFinished in the app browser), so a synchronous check at load time is almost always enough. For scripts that might run before injection completes, listen for the dogesoft#initialized event as a fallback.

function waitForDogesoft() {
  return new Promise((resolve) => {
    if (window.dogesoft) return resolve(window.dogesoft);
    window.addEventListener("dogesoft#initialized", () => resolve(window.dogesoft), { once: true });
  });
}

const dogesoft = await waitForDogesoft();
console.log("ready:", dogesoft.version, dogesoft.network);

2. Connect

connect() prompts the user to approve your origin, then resolves with their account list. Nothing is shared before the user explicitly approves the prompt.

const { accounts } = await window.dogesoft.connect();
const address = accounts[0];

const isConnected = await window.dogesoft.isConnected();
const balance = await window.dogesoft.getBalance();

console.log(address, balance);

Prefer the generic dispatcher? Every friendly method has a matching request() call — see PSBTs & the request() interface.

3. Read the active account

Next: react to account changes and prove ownership with signMessage.
