node-payments

Node-payments is a express based facade to multiple payment services.
The idea is an simple and inutive API to handle just simple single payments. It's als designed to add more payment services over time, but without changing the general API.

The service type is just one argument within the process.

For every provider the required messaging endpoint, like PayPal's IPN, will be attached to express. So everything you need is included.

Features

A simple and equal API for multiple providers.
Integrated messaging endpoints to verify the payments.
A flexible payment-store to simply integrate it within your environment.

What it can't do

To hold it simple and equal over all providers it has only the option for single and simple payments. Batch payments, recurring subscriptions, etc. are not availible.

Currently applied services

Example

// configure express
var express = require( "express" );
var app = express();
app.use( express.urlencoded() );

// get and config the module
var Payments = require( "node-payments" );
// inject and reuse a existing express
var paymentConfig = { express: app, paymentStore: new Payments.RedisHashStore() }
var pymts = new Payments( paymentConfig );

// listen to events

// the event fired for a succesfull provider payment
pymts.on( "approved", function( res, payment ){
	// use the express response object to generate the page after retuning from the providers page
	res.send( "Thank you!" );
});

// the event fired for a canceld provider payment
pymts.on( "cancel", function( res, payment ){
	// use the express response object to generate the page after a canceld payments by/within the providers page
	res.send( "What a pity!" );
});

// the event fired for a successfull verify by a message service ( e.g. PayPal-IPN or ClickandBuy-MMS ).
pymts.on( "verfied", function( payment ){
	console.log( "PAYMENT VERIFIED\"n", payment.valueOf() );
});

// the event on every change of a payment
pymts.on( "payment", function( type, payment ){
	console.log( "PAYMENT ACTION: " + type "\"n", payment.valueOf() );
});

// listen for pay requests ( e.g. "www.mysite.com/pay/paypal"
app.get( "/pay/:provider/:cid", function( req, res ){
	// Get thh service provider
	pymts.provider( req.params.provider, function( err, provider ){
		if( err ){
			console.log( err );
			res.send( "ERROR", 500 );
		}
		
		// create a payment instance
		var payment = provider.create()
		
		// set some parameters
		payment.set({
			amount: 41.99,
			curreny: "EUR",
			desc: "Imperial Star Destroyer",
			// you can define your own attributes
			my_custom_id: req.params.cid
		});
		
		payment.execute( function( err, link ){
			if( err ){
				console.log( err );
				res.send( "ERROR", 500 );
			}
			// redirect to the providers login page
			res.redirect( link );
		});
	});
});

// start express. Make sure you start listening after node-payments has been configured.
var _port = 8888;
console.log( "listen to", _port );
app.listen( _port );

Initialize

to initailize node-payments call new with and put in your express.

PaymentStore

You can or should define your own payment store. Otherwise the system uses the default fleeting memory store witch will loose all the data on every restart of the script.

For a quick start you can use the ready RedisHashStore.

Payments = require( "../." )
new Payments( paymentStore: new Payments.RedisHashStore( { hkey: "nodepaymentexample", host: "localhost", port: 6379 } ) )

A PaymentStore has to implement the methods .connect(), .get( pid, callback ), .set( payment, callback ), .destroy( payment, callback ).

The following code describes a simplified solution:

var EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter;

var YourDBConnector = require( "your-db" );
var db = new YourDBConnector();

module.exports = function(){
	
	function MyPaymentStore(){
		this.connected = false;
	}

	// extend the event emitter methods
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.emit = EventEmitter.emit;
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.on = EventEmitter.on;
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.once = EventEmitter.once;
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.removeListener = EventEmitter.removeListener;
	
	// connect method called on start to connect to your db. Just call `this.connected = true;this.emit("connect");` if you don't need to connect.
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.connect = function() {
		db.connect( function(){
			this.connected = true;
			this.emit("connect");
		} );
	};
	
	// get data of a single payment
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.get = function( pid, callback ) {
		process.nextTick(function() {
			db.get( pid, function( err, data ){
				if( err ){ return callback( err ); }
				callback( null, data );
			} );
		});
	};
	
	// set data of a single payment
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.set = function( payment, callback ) {
		process.nextTick(function() {
			db.set( payment.id, payment.valueOf(), function( err ){
				if( err ){ return callback( err ); }
				callback( null );
			} );
		});
	};
	
	// delete a single payment
	MyPaymentStore.prototype.destroy = function( payment, callback ) {
		process.nextTick(function() {
			db.destroy( payment.id, function( err ){
				if( err ){ return callback( err ); }
				callback( null );
			} );
		});
	};

	return MyPaymentStore;
};

Paypal IPN encoding

The Paypal IPN send's the IPN messages encoded as windows-1251. Usually Node is working with utf-8 and the IPN receiver can not verify the messages succefully. After doing some search i found this article. So you have to change this within the paypal settings, but the Settings are no longer availibel via the GUI so use this link https://www.paypal.com/ie/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-language-encoding.

TODO's

A sandbox config setting to switch beween the sandbox and live environments.
Finalize the paypalrest provider. It's basically done, but the problem is it's not availible in Europe. So i can't test it live and seriously. It you want to use it add paypalrest to the config.providers list.

Ideas

A logging store, similar to the payment store solution, to save all incomming messages with a log and be able to retrace all happening events.
