API documentation

PostFinance Checkout Web Service API

Requirements

  • Python 3.7+

Installation

pip3 install (recommended)

pip3 install --upgrade postfinancecheckout

pip3 install from source via GitHub

pip3 install git+http://github.com/pfpayments/python-sdk.git

(you may need to run pip3 with root permission: sudo pip3 install git+http://github.com/pfpayments/python-sdk.git )

install from source via Setuptools

Install via Setuptools.

pip3 install setuptools

python setup.py install

(or sudo python setup.py install to install the package for all users)

Usage

The library needs to be configured with your account's space id, user id, and secret key which are available in your PostFinance Checkout account dashboard. Set space_id, user_id, and api_secret to their values. You can also optionally set default_headers to set some headers that will be sent to all requests

Configuring a Service

from postfinancecheckout import Configuration
from postfinancecheckout.api import TransactionServiceApi, TransactionPaymentPageServiceApi

space_id = 405

# default_headers is an optional param, that represents headers sent to all requests
config = Configuration(
    user_id=512,
    api_secret='FKrO76r5VwJtBrqZawBspljbBNOxp5veKQQkOnZxucQ=',
    default_headers={'x-meta-custom-header': 'value-1', 'x-meta-custom-header-2': 'value-2'},
    # set a custom request timeout if needed. (If not set, then the default value is: 25 seconds)
    request_timeout = 30
)

transaction_service = TransactionServiceApi(configuration=config)
transaction_payment_page_service = TransactionPaymentPageServiceApi(configuration=config)

To get started with sending transactions, please review the example below:

from postfinancecheckout import Configuration
from postfinancecheckout.api import TransactionServiceApi, TransactionPaymentPageServiceApi
from postfinancecheckout.models import LineItem, LineItemType, TransactionCreate

space_id = 405

config = Configuration(
    user_id=512,
    api_secret='FKrO76r5VwJtBrqZawBspljbBNOxp5veKQQkOnZxucQ=',
    # set a custom request timeout if needed. (If not set, then the default value is: 25 seconds)
    request_timeout = 30
)

transaction_service = TransactionServiceApi(configuration=config)
transaction_payment_page_service = TransactionPaymentPageServiceApi(configuration=config)

# create line item
line_item = LineItem(
    name='Red T-Shirt',
    unique_id='5412',
    sku='red-t-shirt-123',
    quantity=1,
    amount_including_tax=29.95,
    type=LineItemType.PRODUCT
)

# create transaction model
transaction = TransactionCreate(
    line_items=[line_item],
    auto_confirmation_enabled=True,
    currency='EUR',
)

transaction_create = transaction_service.create(space_id=space_id, transaction=transaction)
payment_page_url = transaction_payment_page_service.payment_page_url(space_id=space_id, id=transaction_create.id)
# redirect your customer to this payment_page_url

Integrating Webhook Payload Signing Mechanism into webhook callback handler

The HTTP request which is sent for a state change of an entity now includes an additional field state, which provides information about the update of the monitored entity's state. This enhancement is a result of the implementation of our webhook encryption mechanism.

Payload field state provides direct information about the state update of the entity, making additional API calls to retrieve the entity state redundant.

⚠️ Warning: Generic Pseudocode

The provided pseudocode is intentionally generic and serves to illustrate the process of enhancing your API to leverage webhook payload signing. It is not a complete implementation.

Please ensure that you adapt and extend this code to meet the specific needs of your application, including appropriate security measures and error handling. For a detailed webhook payload signing mechanism understanding we highly recommend referring to our comprehensive Webhook Payload Signing Documentation.

@app.route('/webhook/callback', methods=['POST'])
def handle_webhook():
    request_payload = request.data.decode('utf-8')
    signature = request.headers.get('x-signature')

    if not signature:
        # Make additional API call to retrieve the entity state
        # ...
    else:
        if webhook_encryption_service().is_content_valid(signature_header=signature, content_to_verify=request_payload):
            # Parse request_payload to extract 'state' value
            # Process entity's state change
            # ...

    # Process the received webhook data
    # ...
