Usage
Server Components
Add these imports inside your server component:
import { FarcasterEmbed } from "react-farcaster-embed";
import "react-farcaster-embed/dist/styles.css"; // include default styles or write your own
// use warpcast url
<FarcasterEmbed url="https://warpcast.com/pugson/0x4294c797" />
// or username and hash of the cast
<FarcasterEmbed username="dwr" hash="0x48d47343" />
Client Components
Add the CSS import inside _app.tsx
if you are using Next.js Pages Router:
import "@/styles/globals.css";
import "react-farcaster-embed/dist/styles.css";
import type { AppProps } from "next/app";
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
return <Component {...pageProps} />;
}
And then use the component in your client component using a special import:
import { FarcasterEmbed } from "react-farcaster-embed/dist/client";
// use warpcast url
<FarcasterEmbed url="https://warpcast.com/pugson/0x4294c797" />
// or username and hash of the cast
<FarcasterEmbed username="dwr" hash="0x48d47343" />
Styling
The embed will inherit your body color by default when you import the default stylesheet.
You can change the color of the component by changing its parent's color or adding custom CSS:
.farcaster-embed-container {
color: purple;
}
Custom Endpoint
In case you need to self host the Warpcast Client API proxy, you can fork this repo and set the customEndpoint
option in the FarcasterEmbed
component.
Easiest way to do this is to make a wrapper component with that option applied. Example:
import { FarcasterEmbed as FCEmbed } from "react-farcaster-embed";
export const FarcasterEmbed = (props) => (
<FCEmbed
{...props}
options={{
customEndpoint: "https://your-endpoint.xyz/api/casts",
}}
/>
);
Casts will be fetched from your custom proxy instead of the default one using this URL structure. Make sure your proxy supports it.
await fetch(`${options?.customEndpoint}/${username}/${hash}`);
