Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when a Solana application needs to translate between supported wallet names and addresses or display associated profile-picture results.
Who it is for
- Developers building Solana wallets or dApps that display wallet names instead of raw addresses.
- Teams adding wallet-name resolution, reverse lookup or profile-picture results to Solana interfaces.
Documented uses
- Resolve a supported wallet name to a Solana address.
- Look up a wallet name from an address where the naming service supports reverse mapping.
- Retrieve an associated profile-picture result alongside a name or address lookup.
Requirements & limits
- The documented integration uses npm and requires a Solana Connection object.
- Name-to-address and reverse-lookup coverage varies by service; Backpack has no reverse mapping in the README's table.
- If an address has multiple names, only the first or main name is returned.
- Names and profile pictures are not verified claims of a wallet holder's real-world identity.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Set up a wallet-name lookup
Prepare a TypeScript application to call the documented name-to-address and profile-picture lookup.
Before you start
- A TypeScript project using npm
- A Solana Connection object
Steps
Install the package with npm i "@portal-payments/solana-wallet-names".
Import walletNameToAddressAndProfilePicture from the package.
Pass the Solana Connection object and a supported wallet name to the function.
Expected outcome
The documented result contains a wallet address and profile-picture URL; either or both may be null when no result is found.
Guide limitations
- The README lists .abc, .backpack, .bonk, .glow, .poor and .sol as supported name inputs.
- A Solana Connection object is required.
- The returned name or picture does not verify real-world identity.
