General Configuration

Using Microsoft Dependency Injection (such as in ASP.NET CORE)

Startup.cs file

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
   services.AddControllers();

   services.AddParbad()
         //.configuration...
         //.configuration...
         //.configuration...
}

So you can inject the IOnlinePayment interface wherever you need.

Using a Dependency Injection library (such as Autofac)

Startup.cs file

public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
   var parbadBuilder = ParbadBuilder.CreateDefaultBuilder()
                                  //.configuration...
                                  //.configuration...
                                  //.configuration...

   // Register Parbad using Autofac or any other DI libraries.
   containerBuilder.Populate(parbadBuilder.Services);
}

So you can inject the IOnlinePayment interface wherever you need.

Using no Dependency Injection

Startup.cs file

public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
   var onlinePaymentAccessor = ParbadBuilder.CreateDefaultBuilder()
                                  //.configuration...
                                  //.configuration...
                                  //.configuration...
                                    .Build();
}

The onlinePaymentAccessor object is an instance of IOnlinePaymentAccessor which gives you the ability to work with the IOnlinePayment interface. You can now use the StaticOnlinePayment class wherever you need. For example in projects that don't have any Dependency Injection.

Note: It's important to call the Build method for using the static StaticOnlinePayment class.

Gateways

Adding an account

Add the gateway you want with its accounts as follows:

Example: Adding the Mellat gateway with an account

.ConfigureGateways(gateways =>
{
   gateways
        .AddMellat()
        .WithAccounts(source =>
        {
           source.AddInMemory(account =>
           {
              account.TerminalId = 123;
              account.UserName = "MyId";
              account.UserPassword = "MyPassword";
           });
        });
})

The AddInMemory method saves the gateway's data in your server's RAM.

Adding the accounts dynamically using a custom source

For adding the accounts using a source such as database or an external service, you need to define a custom source and then add the accounts inside the source.

Note: After reading/adding the gateway accounts, they will not be saved anywhere and everytime a payment is being requested or verified, Parbad will ask your Custom Source to read/add the accounts again and again. This gives you the ability to use specific accounts each time a payment must be processed.

This is an example of adding multiple gateways accounts using a service. You can define a source by implemeting the IGatewayAccountSource interface like so:

public class GatewaysAccounts : 
   IGatewayAccountSource<MellatGatewayAccount>,
   IGatewayAccountSource<ParsianGatewayAccount>,
   IGatewayAccountSource<SamanGatewayAccount>
{
    private readonly IYourSettingsService _settingsService;

    public GatewaysAccounts(IYourSettingsService settingsService)
    {
        _settingsService = settingsService;
    }

    public async Task AddAccountsAsync(IGatewayAccountCollection<MellatGatewayAccount> accounts)
    {
        var settings = await _settingsService.GetSettingsAsync();

        accounts.Add(new MellatGatewayAccount
        {
           TerminalId = settings.TerminalId,
           UserName = settings.UserName,
           UserPassword = settings.UserPassword
        });
    }

    public async Task AddAccountsAsync(IGatewayAccountCollection<ParsianGatewayAccount> accounts)
    {
        var settings = await _settingsService.GetSettingsAsync();

        accounts.Add(new ParsianGatewayAccount
        {
           LoginAccount = settings.LoginAccount
        });
    }

    public async Task AddAccountsAsync(IGatewayAccountCollection<SamanGatewayAccount> accounts)
    {
        var settings = await _settingsService.GetSettingsAsync();

        accounts.Add(new SamanGatewayAccount
        {
           MerchantId = settings.MerchantId,
           Password = settings.Password
        });
    }
}

Note: As you see, you can also inject the services that you need inside your source. The injected services (IYourSettingsService in the above example) must be registered using your DI library before. Otherwise Parbad cannot create the source.

Then all you need to do is to tell Parbad about your custom source as follows:

.ConfigureGateways(gateways =>
{
   gateways
        .AddMellat()
        .WithAccounts(source => source.Add<GatewaysAccounts>(ServiceLifetime.Transient));

   // other gateways...
})

Adding multiple accounts for a Gateway

.ConfigureGateways(gateways =>
{
   gateways
        .AddMellat()
        .WithAccounts(source =>
        {
           source.AddInMemory(account =>
           {
              account.Name = "Account 1";
              // other settings
           });

           source.AddInMemory(account =>
           {
              account.Name = "Account 2";
              // other settings
           });
        });
})

Web Application Integration

Depend on your web application choose one of the integration packages to make your app compatible with Parbad.

ASP.NET CORE

.ConfigureHttpContext(builder => builder.UseDefaultAspNetCore())

ASP.NET MVC & ASP.NET WebForms

.ConfigureHttpContext(builder => builder.UseOwinFromCurrentHttpContext())

Note: The method builder.UseOwin also has other overloads that you can use.

See also the Installation page.

Storage

Storage is a place where Parbad saves and loads the payment information to process them internally, so you don't need to care about the internal payment processes.

Why Storage is needed?

• Auto-Prevent from double or multiple processing of a payment
• Auto State Handling (States are: Requested, Ready For Payment, Ready For Verifying, Paid, Refunded, Failed)
• Auto Tracking Number Management
• No need to prepare and give any data when Fetching or Verifying.

Note: Parbad database is ONLY FOR INTERNAL OPERATIONS like saving and loading the payment information. You will get the important information such as Tracking Number, Amount and Transaction Code when you request a payment or verify a requested payment using the Result objects.

You can configure the storage by:

• Using the pre-defined storages.
  • Memory Cache and Distributed Cache
  • EntityFramework Core
• Using a custom storage

Using Cached Storage

Nuget Package Manager:

Install-Package Parbad.Storage.Cache

.NET CLI:

dotnet add package Parbad.Storage.Cache

Memory Cache usage:

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.UseMemoryCache());

With this setting, Parbad will use the IMemoryCache interface to save/load the payment data.

Note: MemoryCache is a suitable Storage for testing and developing your applications. But it's not stable and you shouldn't use it for production.

Distributed Cache usage:

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.UseDistributedCache());

With this setting, Parbad will use the IDistributedCache interface to save/load the payment data.

Note: Make sure that you already added a distributed cache provider such as Redis or SQL Server.

Using EntityFramework Core

Sample

By using the EntityFrameworkCore Storage you have the ability to save Parbad information inside your own database. You can also use many database providers such as SQL Server, Sqlite, MySql and so on.

Step 1) Installation

Nuget Package Manager:

Install-Package Parbad.Storage.EntityFrameworkCore

.NET CLI:

dotnet add package Parbad.Storage.EntityFrameworkCore

Step 2) Configuration:

.ConfigureStorage(builder =>
{
   builder.UseEfCore(options => 
   {
      // Example 1: Using SQL Server
      var assemblyName = typeof(Startup).Assembly.GetName().Name;
      options.ConfigureDbContext = db => db.UseSqlServer("Your Connection String", sql => sql.MigrationsAssembly(assemblyName));

      // Example 2: If you prefer to have a separate MigrationHistory table for Parbad, you can change the above line to this:
      options.ConfigureDbContext = db => db.UseSqlServer("Your Connection String", sql =>
      {
         sql.MigrationsAssembly(assemblyName);
         sql.MigrationsHistoryTable("TABLE NAME");
      });

      options.DefaultSchema = "SCHEMA NAME"; // optional

      options.PaymentTableOptions.Name = "TABLE NAME"; // optional
      options.PaymentTableOptions.Schema = "SCHEMA NAME"; // optional

      options.TransactionTableOptions.Name = "TABLE NAME"; // optional
      options.TransactionTableOptions.Schema = "SCHEMA NAME"; // optional
   })
})

Step 3) Adding the Migrations:

Open the Command Prompt (CMD) in your project's folder and run the following command:

dotnet ef migrations add <MigrationName> -c ParbadDataContext

It will automatically add the Parbad Migrations in your project.

If you prefer to have a separate folder for Parbad Migrations you can add an output parameter to the above command like so:

dotnet ef migrations add <MigrationName> -c ParbadDataContext -o Parbad/Migrations

Step 4) Applying the Migrations on the database:

dotnet ef database update -c ParbadDataContext

Using a custom Storage

Sample

If for any reason you want to use your specific storage then you can implement the IStorage interface as follows:

Note: If you want your Custom Storage to be in a class library, you just need to install the Parbad.Storage.Abstractions package in your class library project.

public class MyStorage : IStorage
{
   // implementations here...
}

Note: You can also inject any service inside your storage if you need. The injected services must be registered with your dependency injection.

Now just add it like so:

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.AddStorage(new MyStorage()));

// or

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.AddStorage<MyStorage>([SERVICE LIFETIME]));

// or

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.AddStorage<MyStorage>(provider => new MyStorage(), [SERVICE LIFETIME]));

Note: the IStorageManager interface acts as a manager for IStorage. Parbad has a default implementation for IStorageManager. You don't need to do anything for this interface at all.

You can also implement this interface and introduce it to Parbad like so:

.ConfigureStorage(builder => builder.AddStorageManager<YourStorageManager>([SERVICE LIFETIME]);

{
   options.EnableLogging = true | false;
});
