NightlyConnect pops up when no wallet installed

[niklasp]

When there are no wallets installed i would not expect to see a nightly connect popup per default.

There is a little bug in the code, as isWalletInstalled always returns true for nightly

use-inkathon/src/wallets.ts

Line 160 in 8bb66bc

if (wallet.id === nightlyConnect.id) return true

use-inkathon/src/provider.tsx

Lines 185 to 197 in 8bb66bc

	const wallets = allSubstrateWallets.filter((w) => isWalletInstalled(w))
	if (!wallets?.length) {
	const message = 'No Substrate-compatible extension detected'
	setError({
	code: UseInkathonErrorCode.NoSubstrateExtensionDetected,
	message,
	})
	throw new Error(message)
	}
	// Determine wallet to use
	const preferredWallet = wallet && wallets.find((w) => w.id === wallet.id)
	const _wallet = preferredWallet || wallets[0]

wallets will never be [] and so nightlyWallet will always be the preferredWallet that is tried to enable, also if no wallets are installed.

What do you think about tackling this in a feature-add-workaround where instead of using allSubstrateWallets add a supportedWallets value to the provider that defaults to allSubstrateWallets and working with that instead in the provider. I am asking because I had to limit the supported wallets in my dapps and it would solve the issue for all not adding nightlyWallet to the supportedWallets

My problem is that i cannot use useInkathon the way it is now as I do not want to support NightlyConnect and see no way to workaround except changing the library. Happy to submit a PR if you agree or come up with other ideas on how to handle.

This is fixed in @scio-labs/use-inkathon@0.9.0 which no longer automatically opens Nightly Connect on the initial/auto-connect.

Additionally, it contains your PR #68 which I've merged. Though, I would recommend only using it when there is a good reason for it (Nightly Connect is now disabled on init so this shouldn't be one). Why? IMO it leads towards developers artificially excluding users by not-enabling certain wallets. And also when new wallets get added to the eco/repo they need to manually upgrade their dApps to be compatible which I would advice against as the default.
