\# (Wordpress) PayPal Client
============================

[](#-wordpress-paypal-client)

This PayPal Client can be used to integrate PayPal into your WordPress website. Of course it can be used for other purposes as well, but it was firstly developed with the intention to be used for a WordPress website. It is just simplify the way of the integration already provided in the official PayPal Package

-----

Or if you prefer a composer.json file add the project name in the require segment as below:

	}

```

Create an Order
---------------

[](#create-an-order)

Assuming you have all necassary variables (and apropriate values) somewhere caught in your script already, you only need to pass it to the appropriate method(s). Required variables are:

```
    /*your payPal Client ID you will get from your PayPal developer console at https://developer.paypal.com/dashboard/ */
    $payPalClientId = ''; //put in your PayPal Client ID

    /*your PayPal Client Secret you will get from your PayPal developer console at https://developer.paypal.com/dashboard/ */
    $payPalClientSecret = ''; //put in your PayPal Client Secret

    //boolean value to define if you want to use the PayPal Sandox for testing (true) or PayPal Production (false)
    $payPalSandbox = true; // or false for production

    /* optional a reference ID that will be used for a reference for example in your ERP- or shop system */
    $referenceId = 'ABC123';
    /* Contact Details like */
    $firstName = 'John';
    $lastName = 'Doe';
    $email = 'john.doe@drechsler-development.de';
    $tel = '1234567890';
    $postCode = '12345';
    $city = 'Musterstadt';
    /* if you will pass street and number, address will become not necassary, as the Contact class method behind will concatenate the street and number with a space and will set that as the address. As well as you will pass rthe address it will be set as street and number, as long it contains a space as a divider between street and number */
    $street = 'Musterstraße';
    $number = '123';
    $address = 'Musterstraße 123'; //optional, if street and number are set, this will be ignored
    /* Items */
    $myItems[];
    /* each item should have */
    $item['name'] = 'Item Name'
    $item['quantity'] = 2;
    $item['netAmount'] = 100.00; //This is the net amount of the item (aka 'unit amount')
    $item['taxPercent'] = 19;
    $item['description'] = 'My beautiful item'; /* optional */
```

In this example I am using the file ajax.php and call it via a POST request from another script via JavaScript/jQuery or whatever you are prefer.

```
