🎯 Clean P-256 Coordinate API

React Passkey Pro v2.0+ provides direct access to P-256 elliptic curve coordinates:

// Clean, user-friendly structure - no confusing nesting!
const credential = {
  id: "credential_id_here",
  publicKey: {
    kty: 2,           // EC2 key type
    alg: -7,          // ES256 algorithm  
    crv: 1,           // P-256 curve
    x: "base64_x_coordinate",  // Real X coordinate
    y: "base64_y_coordinate",  // Real Y coordinate
    extracted: true   // Successfully extracted from WebAuthn
  },
  userId: "[email protected]",
  createdAt: new Date(),
  transports: ["internal", "hybrid"]
}

// Access coordinates directly:
console.log(credential.publicKey.x); // X coordinate
console.log(credential.publicKey.y); // Y coordinate

🔐 Complete WebAuthn Authentication Response

React Passkey Pro v2.0+ returns the complete WebAuthn authentication response for backend verification:

const authResponse = await authenticate();

// Complete response ready for backend verification:
{
  credentialId: "base64_credential_id",
  challenge: "base64_challenge",         // Original challenge sent
  signature: "base64_signature",         // Cryptographic signature
  clientDataJSON: "base64_client_data",  // Client environment data
  authenticatorData: "base64_auth_data", // Authenticator response
  userHandle: "base64_user_handle"       // User identifier (optional)
}

// Send to your backend for verification:
const response = await fetch('/api/verify-passkey', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify(authResponse)
});

⚡ Quick Start

Get up and running in under 2 minutes:

import { PasskeyProvider, PasskeyButton, usePasskey } from 'react-passkey-pro';

function App() {
  return (
    <PasskeyProvider>
      <MyApp />

  );
}

function MyApp() {
  const { isSupported, credentials } = usePasskey();

  return (
    <div>
      {isSupported ? (
        <>
          <PasskeyButton
            mode="register"

      )}
    </div>
  );
}

API Reference

Components

PasskeyProvider

The main provider component that manages passkey state and operations.

<PasskeyProvider
  storageKey="my-app-passkeys" // Optional: customize storage key
  autoDetectSupport={true}     // Optional: auto-detect browser support
>
  {children}
</PasskeyProvider>

PasskeyButton

A ready-to-use button component for registration and authentication.

<PasskeyButton
  mode="register" // or "authenticate"
  className="custom-button"
  disabled={false}
  registrationOptions={{
    user: { id, name, displayName },
    timeout: 60000,
  }}
  onSuccess={(result) => console.log('Success!', result)}
  onError={(error) => console.error('Error:', error)}
>
  Custom Button Text
</PasskeyButton>

PasskeyManager

Component for managing registered passkeys.

<PasskeyManager
  className="passkey-list"
  emptyMessage="No passkeys yet"
  onDelete={(credential) => console.log('Deleted:', credential)}
  renderCredential={(credential, onDelete) => (
    <CustomCredentialCard credential={credential} onDelete={onDelete} />
  )}
/>

PasskeyStatus

Display the current passkey support status.

<PasskeyStatus
  showCredentialCount={true}
  supportedMessage="Ready for passkeys!"
  unsupportedMessage="Passkeys not available"
/>

Hooks

usePasskey

The main hook for accessing passkey functionality.

const {
  isSupported,        // boolean
  isRegistering,      // boolean
  isAuthenticating,   // boolean
  credentials,        // PasskeyCredential[]
  register,           // (options) => Promise<PasskeyCredential>
  authenticate,       // (options?) => Promise<string>
  deleteCredential,   // (id) => Promise<void>
  clearCredentials,   // () => void
} = usePasskey();

usePasskeySupport

Check if passkeys are supported.

const { isSupported, isChecking } = usePasskeySupport();

usePasskeyRegistration

Hook for passkey registration operations.

const { register, isRegistering, error } = usePasskeyRegistration();

usePasskeyAuthentication

Hook for passkey authentication operations.

const { authenticate, isAuthenticating, error } = usePasskeyAuthentication();

Advanced Usage

Custom Storage Adapter

import { PasskeyStorageAdapter, PasskeyProvider } from '@react-passkey/core';

class CustomStorageAdapter implements PasskeyStorageAdapter {
  async getCredentials() { /* ... */ }
  async saveCredential(credential) { /* ... */ }
  async deleteCredential(id) { /* ... */ }
  async clearCredentials() { /* ... */ }
}

// Use with provider
<PasskeyProvider storageAdapter={new CustomStorageAdapter()}>
  {children}
</PasskeyProvider>

Conditional Mediation

// For autofill/conditional UI
const credentialId = await authenticate({
  allowCredentials: [], // Empty array triggers conditional UI
  userVerification: 'preferred',
});
