Amber: Nostr event signer for Android

Designed to have your keys on only one application

Current Features

• Offline
• Use nip-46 or make an addendum in nip-46
• Improve the ui (currently its showing a text with the raw json of the event)
• Check if we can use Amber to sign the events of web applications
• Change the sign button to just copy the signature of the event
• Use a service or another approach to not open the app always to get the signed event on android

Adding Amber support for your application

• Add a package querie in your AndroidManifest.xml

<queries>
    <package android:name="com.greenart7c3.nostrsigner"/>
</queries>

• Create the Nostr Event

val event = TextNoteEvent(id, pubKey, TimeUtils.now(), tags, message, signature = "")

• Convert the event to json

val json = event.toJson()

• Create the intent using the nostrsigner scheme

val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("nostrsigner:$json;name=Your Application name"))

• Set the package name of the signer app for the intent

intent.`package` = "com.greenart7c3.nostrsigner"

• Start the signer Activity

context.startActivity(intent)

Support for Web Applications

• Create the Nostr Event

• Convert the event to json

const json = JSON.stringify(note)

• Create the intent

const intent = `nostrsigner:${json};name=Your Application name`

• Send the intent

window.location.href = intent;
