Metamask: Is there a way to output a list of Metamask account names and addresses?

When working with MetaMask, managing multiple accounts can be tedious. This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to generate a list of account names and addresses using the Web Wallet API.

Prerequisites

  • Make sure that MetaMask is installed on your device and that you have generated a seed phrase.
  • You must have the metamask package installed in your project: npm install metamask
  • Familiarize yourself with the MetaMask Web Wallet API documentation

Step 1: Get your accounts and address

Use the following code to retrieve your account names and addresses:

const { Web3Provider } = require('web3');

const supplier = new Web3Provider(' // replace with your local network provider

async function getAccountsAndAddresses() {

const accounts = wait supplier.getAccounts();

let address = '';

for (let i = 0; i < accounts.length; i++) {

console.log(Account ${i+1}:, accounts[i]);

address += Address: ${accounts[i]}\n;

}

return { account, address };

}

getAccountsAndAddresses().then((result) => {

console.log('Output:');

console.log(result.address);

// You can also display the list of account names

result.accounts.forEach((account) => {

console.log(Account ${account.index}:, account.name);

});

});

Explanation

  • We create a new Web3Provider instance and connect to your local network provider (replace with
  • We use thegetAccounts()method to retrieve an array of account names.
  • We loop through the accounts array and record each account name and address individually.
  • Finally, we return an object containing both the list of account names and addresses.

Step 2: Generate a simple list

To generate a simple list of account names and addresses, you can use theconsole.logfunction:

const { Web3Provider } = require('web3');

const supplier = new Web3Provider(' // replace with your local network provider

async function getAccountsAndAddresses() {

const accounts = await supplier.getAccounts();

let address = '';

for (let i = 0; i < accounts.length; i++) {

console.log(Account ${i+1}:, accounts[i]);

address +=Address: ${accounts[i]}\n;

}

return { addresses: address, accounts };

}

getAccountsAndAddresses().then((result) => {

console.log('Output:');

// You can also view the list of account names

result.accounts.forEach((account) => {

console.log(Account ${account.index}:, account.name);

});

});

Example Use Cases

  • Share your MetaMask accounts and addresses with a team or client.
  • Automate tasks by sending notifications to specific accounts and addresses.
  • Create custom reports and dashboards that display account information.

By following these steps, you can easily generate a list of Metamask account names and addresses. Remember to replace the URL with your local network provider if necessary.
