Wallet provider can change account

[altai0]

In the current method we use const myProvider = providers[0]; to select an account. We can make this dynamic. Massa Station Wallet sets a master account and providers returns the master account. For account changes it is necessary to change the main account. We can do this by creating a function in wallet-provider. changeAccount() example.

Hello @altai0

I'm not sure about what to change.

To contextualise:

Here how I select an massa station wallet account and create a client:

    const wallets = await providers();

    const massaStationWallet = wallets.find(
      (wallet) => wallet.name() === walletName
    );

    const accounts = await massaStationWallet?.accounts();
    // I can store accounts in a state

    const account = accounts?.[0];

    const client = await ClientFactory.fromWalletProvider(
      massaStationWallet!,
      account!
    );

So if I want to change my account I just create a new client with another account, I can display the list so the user can choose.

You said myProvider = providers[0]; is to select an account but it's actually to select a provider which can contain multiple accounts.

Are we on the same page or am I way off the mark.

Ok I don't know if it's a related issue but:

• Massastation return the list of all accounts and we can use all of them because we don't need to approve a dapp like bearby
• Bearby return only the current account and to switch as a user, we must change it from the extension (like metamask would do I guess)

So there is 2 behaviours which is a problem.

For privacy reason I think it's better to follow Bearby behaviour. Otherwise malicious websites might be able to link different accounts.
