Nova Wallet iOS - Next get mobile app for Polkadot & Kusama ecosystem

Feature request

We are implementing "Pay with Polkadot" Point-of-Sale feature here: https://github.com/metaspan/metapay

The solution is opensource and can be self-hosted by any vendor / merchant.

Use cases

1. Point-of-sale / Kiosk: generate QRcode with all relevant data - user scans with wallet and approves payment substrate://<address>:<genesisHash>:amount=1&reference=ref123 The POS module can watch the address for any payment with reference, and mark the payment as complete.

2. Webshop: Send a link to user to request payment https://pay.metaspan.io/paymentRequest/<address>:<genesisHash>?amount=1&reference=ref123 (to be implemented shortly ;) The browser will display a QRcode for wallet to scan Also, if available, will connect to polkadot.js (in the browser) An optional callback will notify the webshop that payment is done / error.

Broadly, it will embrace similar work already done at Solana Pay https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-pay/blob/master/SPEC.md

Nova Wallet should support additional fields via URL encoding in the comment

Current support - a QR code with: substrate:<walletid>:<genesisHash>[:<comment>] - is supported

We need support for: substrate:[//]<walletid>:<genesisHash>:[?]<url-encoded-fields>

Options for detecting additional fields

const parts = decodedQRString.split(':')
const protocol    = parts[0]
const address     = parts[1]
const genesisHash = parts[2]
const comment     = parts[3]

// Option 1
if (address.startsWith('//')) {}

// Option 2
if (comment && comment.startsWith('?')) {}

Example handler:

const parts = decodedQRString.split(':')
const protocol = parts[0]
if (protocol === 'substrate') {
  const address = parts[1]
  const comment = parts[3]
  if (address.startsWith('//') || ( comment && comment.startsWith('?') ) ) {
    // we have URL-encoded `comment` field
    /*
      [?]amount=<amount>
      &reference=<reference>
      &label=<label>
      &message=<message>
      &memo=<memo>
    */
  } else {
    // simple QR format
  }
} else {
  console.error('Invalid protocol')
}
