spree-bitpay relies on the bitpay-rails gem, which requires two environment variables to be set: BPSECRET and BPSALT. You must set these environment variables.
$ export BPSECRET="YOURSECRETRIGHTHERE"
$ export BPSALT="YOURSALTHERE"
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'bitpay-rails', gem 'bitpay-rails', require: 'bit_pay_rails'
gem 'spree_bitpay', :git => 'https://github.com/bitpay/spree-bitpay.git'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Then run
$ rake bit_pay_rails_engine:install:migrations
$ rake db:migrate
Failing to run the bit_pay_rails migrations before running the spree_bitpay migrations will cause the spree_bitpay migrations to fail, the spree_bitpay migrations have associations to the bit_pay_rails tables.
$ rails generate spree_bitpay:install
Depending on your deployment configuration, you may need to precompile assets at this point in order to load the javascript files for the spree_bitpay gem.
The BitPay Spree connector receives RESTful confirmation callbacks at the bitpay_notification_url (typically http://<host>/spree_bitpay/notification). This route must be available to receive messages from https://bitpay.com for proper operation. This may require changes to your network configuration if your server is behind a firewall. The connector has been implemented to verify any callbacks received at this route, to prevent fraudulent/spoof messages.
Once installed, configure the BitPayment payment method by logging into the Admin console by browsing to Configuration > Payment Methods.
Click the "+ New Payment Method" button and choose the provider titled Spree::PaymentMethod::BitPayment. Type a unique name that will be displayed to users when selecting a payment method. Click the Create button.
Once you have created the new payment method, it must be authenticated with BitPay. Select either LiveNet or TestNet from the dropdown and click the Authenticate button. This should redirect you to BitPay to authenticate the payment method.
Once installed and configured, users will be able to select Bitcoin on the Payment step of the Checkout process.
After confirming their order details, users are presented with a modal Bitcoin invoice for payment.
When the payment is detected on the Bitcoin network, the modal will update and allow them to continue to the confirmation page.
When a user selects Bitcoin as a payment method, a new Payment is created, in checkout state, along with a new BitpayInvoice, which links to the invoiceID created at BitPay.com.
In the event Bitcoin checkout is abandoned or the invoice expires, the Payment is marked invalid.
When a payment is detected on the Bitcoin network, the Payment is marked pending, and the Order is set complete. The user is presented with a confirmation screen.
When the Bitcoin transaction is fully confirmed according to your BitPay transaction speed settings, a callback is delivered to the bitpay_notification_url, and verified with the BitPay server. At this stage the payment will be marked complete, and the fullfillment can proceed.
At any point, the details and current status of a BitPay payment can be viewed by clicking on the payment in the order detail screen
The BitPay Spree connector uses RSpec, Capybara, and Poltergeist to perform integration testing. To set up and run the tests, you must install PhantomJS, as described here. Then execute the following steps:
$ source spec/set_constants.sh https://test.bitpay.com $ bundle exec rake
