high winds and rain Jules angel I swim
do a quick overview
the using this PHP library for Pay Pal
their bill
makes it pretty quick and easy to
integrate a pulse web services and a
pretty much
me PHP the project might be working on a
pretty much all there is to it the way
this library is set up
its gonna do a real quick deal here when
you first download
you open up this can take files under
includes conseguiste
can you just need to fill in your API
credentials mainly
there's a variable for sand box which
you can to set to true or false
I'm actually setting it based on me
server that it's running from
and you also want to say your domain my
case and box angel I dot com for testing
or WWW dot angel I dot com
for live server now come in handy with
throughout the library for
Express Checkout or anytime using return
URL's
mainly listening to fill in your version
number Application ID
developer account email in your API
credentials
so these are based on the sandbox should
be just as shorthand
syntax near so
the sandbox value for API user name is
here the live one would go here words
currently empty
same for password and signature
and there's a spot here for the live
versions as well
CBC News thought your consigue file and
then you're ready to go
so take a look at how this would work as
a bunch of files here but these are all
pretty much just template files
to get started with so any call you
wanna make
to the Pay Pal API you just find the
template file
and that's what you'll start with so for
example a process a credit card using
Payments Pro used to direct payment for
that
Scion open up to direct payment and
we'll see that
be library itself is already included
the paper object to set up ready to go
for us
and we just have a bunch a request
parameters
in arrays that we need to fill in out to
the right here
are some commented notes their polled
directly from paid house documentation
on what each of these request parameters
needs to contain a lot of them are
pretty straightforward is based on the
name but
if you do you have any questions the
notes are there for you so
all we would do is go through and
fill-in all of these request parameters
includes order items so here you see an
note
where this mention that he'd more than
likely be looping through a shopping
cart of some sort
to generate all the order items and
everything in the bottom here gets
passed into a single
paper request data array all the arrays
above get loaded in there
nested accordingly and that whole thing
then gets loaded into the do direct
payment method
%uh the library and the library result
comes back in
pay powers over here finally at the end
or simply dumping pay powers old out to
the screen so we can see exactly what
comes back
so again if you just fill out all these
parameters
that would run there's actually a
samples folder included
with the download of the library that
has a few of these calls already sold
out
including to direct payment so if we
open this one
we'll see got a payment action of sale
which means we want a process it right
away
choosing the IP address sewing contract
management filters credit card
information
we got some blank still anything that
you don't need or don't want to use you
just leave it blank you don't have to
worry about removing at the library or
leave it out if you leave it blank
tester tester sent for the name here we
got a billing address
billing details order information
order items in this case I'm just
passing in a single order item
to my order items array wrapping it all
up in request a to
passing it into the library method
and dumping out the result so in my web
browser here
discourage leave got a local web server
setup and I'm just looking at the
directory contents here so
first let's take a look here at
one that for example do you avoid
if I just click undo void here this is
an empty one so
what I get back is exactly what I was
expecting I wanna show you what it looks
like when you get an air
in this case the paper response in all
cases you get all the actual response
fields a comeback from Pay Pal
in their own in near a was with easy
access
you always getting errors array back to
in this case we actually got their
information because the Scofield
my request was empty so tell me hey got
a required parameter missing
the request date itself that you send is
also going to be included here
and the raw or request an real response
exactly as it was sent to to and from
pay power will be here as well so
it's provided in easy to access an easy
to read
ways and then it's also provided as
raw information here as well
so now they took a quick look at that
let's go back
and all go into my samples directory
that we were looking at
in here the few that are already sold
out so for example
go-ahead run that do direct payment that
we were just looking at that had data
and here you'll see we got response data
back this time
we got the successful response and so we
got a transaction ID
ABS response CCB to information
the heirs array comes back again but in
this case is empty because there were no
heirs
request date again it's broken down a
nice easy to read format so we can
shi'ite seat easily read it we need
access to any other individual
parameters we can get some
and then there are requested the wrong
response until here as well
might wanna say that here logger do
whatever you want to do with that
but everything the might need is
available in this result comes back from
the library so again if we go back might
look at get balance for example
get balance his paper out right away
comes back successful
and in this case you'll see that the
amount
comes back and there could be more than
one amount and current she returned
which is why you have this 0 on the end
and then there could be one two three
four
however many had so the library it'll
return them all individually like that
but also goes ahead and parses all that
out for you and returns a balance
results in this case is only one
but you'll see how it got split out and
do it on our a here
and the library will handle that for you
with things like transactions search
or anything where multiple items can
come back in a single result
so that's pretty much all there is to it
a
again all you'll do is load up whatever
template file for whichever call your
want to use they're all pretty much
exactly the same
a filling your request parameters
and process the result later
