README

Brightcweb/Paypal is a Laravel package that simplifies PayPal integration for your e-commerce system or donation platform. With this package, you can handle payments efficiently while maintaining the flexibility to customize routes, views, and authentication requirements.

Features

• Seamless PayPal checkout integration.
• Customizable success and cancellation routes.
• Records all payment transactions in the Brightcwebpayment table.
• Optionally enforce user authentication before checkout.
• Pre-built, modifiable views for success and cancellation pages.

Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require brightcweb/paypal

Publish the package configuration assets:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=brightpaypalconfig

Run the migrations to create the Brightcwebpayment table:

php artisan migrate

Add the following entries to your .env file:

PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID=your-paypal-client-id
PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET=your-paypal-client-secret

Clear and cache the configuration:

php artisan config:clear
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:cache

Usage

Controller Setup

• In your controller, import the PayPal class and inject it into the constructor:

use Brightcweb\Paypal\Myclass\BrightCWebPaypalClass;

class YourController extends Controller
{
    protected $BrightCwebPaypalClass;

    public function __construct(BrightCWebPaypalClass $BrightCWebPaypalClass)
    {
        $this->BrightCwebPaypalClass = $BrightCWebPaypalClass;
    }
}

Checkout Endpoint

Create a route and controller method for initiating the checkout process. Example:

public function checkout(Request $req)
{
    $amount = $req->amount; // Get order or donation amount
    $paymentData = $this->BrightCwebPaypalClass->createPaypalOrder($amount);

    return redirect($paymentData['links'][1]['href']);
}

Define the route in web.php:

Route::get('/checkout', [YourController::class, 'checkout'])->name('checkout');

Success and Cancel Routes

Add routes for handling successful and canceled payments:

public function successpaypal(Request $request)
{
    $orderId = $request->query('token');
    $payerId = $request->query('PayerID');

    $paymentDetails = $this->BrightCwebPaypalClass->handlePaymentSuccess($orderId, $payerId);

    if ($paymentDetails) {
        // Optionally send notifications or update tables
        return view('vendor.brightcwebpaypal.sucesspaypal', $paymentDetails);
    }

    return view('vendor.brightcwebpaypal.canceled');
}

public function cancelpaypal()
{
    return view('vendor.brightcwebpaypal.canceled');
}

Define these routes in web.php:

Route::get('/successpaypal', [YourController::class, 'successpaypal'])->name('successpaypal');
Route::get('/cancelpaypal', [YourController::class, 'cancelpaypal'])->name('cancelpaypal');

Add these routes in your .env file:

PAYPAL_SUCCESS_ROUTE="success payment route name"
PAYPAL_CANCELLED_ROUTE="cancelled payment route name"

Views Customization

The package includes default views for success and cancellation located in vendor/brightcwebpaypal. Feel free to modify or rename them according to your needs.

Authentication

This package allows you to decide whether users should be authenticated before proceeding with checkout or not. You can customize your middleware as needed.

Key Features

Payment Recording

Every successful payment is recorded in the Brightcwebpayment table for easy tracking.

Optional Authentication

You have full control over whether users need to be authenticated before initiating a checkout or not. This package works perfectly without authentication, which is useful in scenarios where registration is not required for checkout.

Clearing and Caching Configuration

Whenever you make changes to your .env file or configuration, remember to run the following commands:

php artisan config:clear
php artisan cache:clear
php artisan config:cache

Notes

• Ensure that your PayPal credentials in the .env file are correct.
• Ensure that PAYPAL_SUCCESS_ROUTE and PAYPAL_CANCELLED_ROUTE are correctly set in your .env file.
• Always test your integration in PayPal's sandbox environment before going live.
• Use php artisan optimize:clear if you encounter any cache-related issues.
