A Plone add-on package that acts as a base for supporting different Instant Payment Notification providers (such as PayPal, JVZoo, Click2Sell, etc.)

• Source code @ GitHub
• Releases @ PyPI
• Continuous Integration @ Travis-CI

You probably do not want to use this package on its own, but rather use one of its sub-packages:

• niteoweb.ipn.jvzoo
• niteoweb.ipn.c2s (WIP)

This package acts as a base layer for niteoweb.ipn.* packages. It provides the code that these sub-packages would have to otherwise duplicate:

• Creating a new member.
• Updating an existing member.
• Disabling an existing member.
• Firing off events that your project code can catch and perform custom tasks on.

The following information is stored as member properties for later use:

product_id

IPN provider's Product ID of the purchased item.

affiliate

Affiliate who referred the buyer.

valid_to

Date until the member's subscription is valid.

history

History of actions taken on the member. Useful for analyses later on.

• Emails are used as usernames.
• "Disabling" a member means to revoke her Member role and put her in the Disabled group, while removing her from all other groups.
• "Enabling" a member means to create a new member (if she doesn't exist yet), grant her the Member role (if she doesn't have it yet) and add her to the Product Group.
• "Product Group" is a group that contains members that have purchased the same product. Product group IDs are equal to Product IDs -- this is how they are linked together.
• When niteoweb.ipn.core creates a new member object, the registration email is not sent. Your third-party code should take care of this (for example by subscribing to the IPrincipalCreatedEvent emitted by PAS).
• Whenever a member is enabled, a 'valid_to' property is set on the member object to represent until which day should this member be allowed to use the site. You then need to setup a cronjob that calls @@validity view every day to disable those members whose validity period has elapsed. In the plone.app.registry control panel you can set a secret that needs to be passed as a request parameter to the @@validity view.

You probably do not want to install niteoweb.ipn.core directly, but rather use one of niteoweb.ipn.* sub-packages.
