NetX Name Resolver

MetaMask Name Lookup integration for NetX Name Service on NetX Testnet.

Network

• Chain: NetX Testnet (eip155:587)
• Name suffix: .netx
• Name service: 0x962067a3c0b3ACC733c6396823C239c8E9fa3b82

What it resolves

• Forward: name.netx -> the address returned by resolve(string).
• Reverse: an address -> the live primary name returned by primaryName(address).

The Snap requests network access to read the fixed NetX Testnet RPC endpoint, plus MetaMask's name lookup permission. It does not request account keys, signatures, transaction permissions, or wallet state.

Build and test

npm install --ignore-scripts --workspaces=false
npm run build --workspaces=false
npm test --workspaces=false -- --runInBand

Local MetaMask test

Custom name lookup is a protected MetaMask Snap permission. During development, use MetaMask Flask.

1. Install MetaMask Flask in a separate browser profile.
2. Build the Snap, then run npm run serve --workspaces=false in this directory.
3. From a development dapp, request the local Snap:

await window.ethereum.request({
  method: 'wallet_requestSnaps',
  params: {
    'local:http://localhost:8080': {},
  },
});

4. Switch MetaMask to NetX Testnet (chain ID 587).
5. In Send, enter a registered name such as netx.netx. MetaMask should offer the address returned by the NetX Name Service contract.

Public distribution

The public source repository is https://github.com/VibeYolk/netx-name-resolver. Publish the package to npm, then submit the Snap for MetaMask allowlisting. Stable MetaMask cannot install this name-lookup Snap until that protected permission has been approved.
