import { KeyringProvider } from '@unique-nft/accounts/keyring';
import { Client } from "@unique-nft/client";

const options = {

};
const provider = new KeyringProvider(options);
await provider.init();
const account = provider.addSeed('<seed of account>');
const signer = account.getSigner();

const clientOptions = {
  baseUrl: 'REST API URL',
  signer
};
const client = new Client(clientOptions);
