availableRecoveryMethods

Retrieves the list of available backup methods that can be used for wallet recovery.

Function Signature

public func availableRecoveryMethods(
    _ forChainId: String? = nil
) async throws -> [BackupMethods]

Parameters

• forChainId: Optional chain identifier (e.g., "eip155:1" for Ethereum mainnet, "solana:5eykt4UsFv8P8NJdTREpY1vzqKqZKvdp" for Solana mainnet). If nil, returns backup methods from all wallets.

Returns

An array of BackupMethods representing completed backups, which may include:

• .GoogleDrive: Google Drive backup

• .iCloud: iCloud backup

• .Password: Password-protected backup

• .Passkey: Passkey backup

• .local: Local backup

Throws

• PortalClassError.clientNotAvailable if the client is not initialized

• When a specific chainId is provided:

  • PortalClassError.unsupportedChainId if the chain's namespace is not supported

  • PortalClassError.noWalletFoundForChain if no wallet exists for the specified chain

Example Usage

// Check available recovery methods for all chains
do {
    let methods = try await portal.availableRecoveryMethods()
    print("Available recovery methods: \(methods)")
    
    // Check if specific backup method is available
    if methods.contains(.Password) {
        print("Password recovery is available")
    }
    if methods.contains(.GoogleDrive) {
        print("Google Drive recovery is available")
    }
} catch {
    print("Error checking recovery methods: \(error)")
}

// Check recovery methods for specific chain
do {
    // Check Ethereum mainnet
    let ethMethods = try await portal.availableRecoveryMethods("eip155:1")
    print("Available recovery methods for Ethereum: \(ethMethods)")
    
    // Check Solana mainnet
    let solMethods = try await portal.availableRecoveryMethods("solana:5eykt4UsFv8P8NJdTREpY1vzqKqZKvdp")
    print("Available recovery methods for Solana: \(solMethods)")
} catch {
    print("Error checking chain-specific recovery methods: \(error)")
}

// Complete example with recovery
do {
    let methods = try await portal.availableRecoveryMethods()
    
    for method in methods {
        switch method {
        case .Password:
            // Attempt password recovery
            try portal.setPassword("userPassword")
            let recovered = try await portal.recoverWallet(.Password)
            print("Recovered with password: \(recovered.ethereum)")
            
        case .GoogleDrive:
            // Attempt Google Drive recovery
            let recovered = try await portal.recoverWallet(.GoogleDrive)
            print("Recovered with Google Drive: \(recovered.ethereum)")
            
        case .iCloud:
            // Attempt iCloud recovery
            let recovered = try await portal.recoverWallet(.iCloud)
            print("Recovered with iCloud: \(recovered.ethereum)")
            
        default:
            print("Other recovery method available: \(method)")
        }
    }
} catch {
    print("Error in recovery process: \(error)")
}

Implementation Notes

• The method only returns backup methods where the corresponding backup share pairs have a status of .completed

• Methods with incomplete or pending backups are excluded

• For chain-specific queries, the method validates the chain ID format and namespace support

• The function is useful for determining which recovery options to present to users
