Usage with uport about drizzle-legacy HOT 4 CLOSED

So far I've determined that no, it's not currently possible.

The things in the way are:

1. uport-connect uses web3 < 1.0. This will change when uport-connect releases v1.0.0.

2. drizzle doesn't easily support constom providers, you can pretty easily hack that though.... window.web3 = { currentProvider: new Provider(...) };

3. uport-connect's provider seems to be incompatible with drizzle. As best I can tell, drizzle expects either a websocket from ganache or metamask. You would need to get feature parity with probably metamask to make uport work. A uPort dev suggested that maybe using Metamask's provider engine and reimplementing their own provider would likely do the trick.

@tayzlor did you manage to do it?

@tayzlor @barlock addressed this quite well. We do plan to more easily support custom providers in the future (especially relevant for hardware wallets), but uPort's in particular will need to upgrade to support websockets.

Is there an issue to track custom providers?
