solana actions server powered by node & express js
provides modular action endpoints for solana blinks
support: contact @SolDapper
installs and starts the server
*this command creates the your-projects/solana-action-express working directory
git clone https://github.com/SolDapper/solana-action-express.git && cd solana-action-express && npm install && npm run actions
npm run actions
- create your new action file
touch src/actions/my_new_action.js
- include the new file in actions.js

by default your "host" is localhost. when deploying your server live you must update the host setting in src/config.js to your live domain.
var host = "https://your-domain-name.com";
heroku hosting conviennently allows you to auto deploy or manually deploy from your github repo with one click.
create a config var in your apps hosting settings with the name "RPC" and the value being your protected rpc endpoint url. your solana-action-express server will then use it automatically.
Although you can test locally on Dial.to and other tools, it's important to note that in order for a blink to render on x.com you must have:
- your actions deployed live on a fully qualified domain name.
- blinks must be enabled in your wallet settings.
- the page you're sharing must have twitter-card metatags.
we use the following metatags
<title>Title</title>
<meta name="description" content="" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@xHandle" />
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@xHandle" />
<meta name="twitter:title" content="" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="" />
<meta name="twitter:image" content="" />
<meta property="og:title" content="" />
<meta property="og:image" content="" />
<meta property="og:url" content="" />
<meta property="og:description" content="" />
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="" type="image/png">
<link rel="icon" href="" type="image/png">
you can test that your page is twitter-card enabled using this tool:
https://www.bannerbear.com/tools/twitter-card-preview-tool/
It is currently necessary to register the domain of your actions server or else your blinks will not render on x.
Dialect Action Registration: https://dial.to/register
users on x need to have a supporting wallet or the dialect extension to see the blinks. otherwise the post will default to the normal twitter-card.
supporting wallets/extensions
phantom wallet (enable in settings under "experimental features") web store
solflare wallet web store
backpack wallet web store
dialect blinks web store
if the twitter-card metatags for your blink are located on a non-node website, blog, one the many oss ecom platforms, anything running on apache, you can use this php file in place of your actions.json to allow public access from blink clients without opening up cross domain requests to other files on your system. you will also need to add a RewriteRule in your your .htaccess file to route all requests for actions.json to the actions.php file.
