Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

By using this plugin you can process or refund payments and handle IPN (Instant Payment Notification) from PayPal in your Laravel application.

**Currently only PayPal Express Checkout API Is Supported.**

I have also created a [demo application](https://github.com/srmklive/laravel-paypal-demo) which utilizes this package. Following is the demo link for the application:

PayPal API Credentials
----------------------

[](#paypal-api-credentials)

This package uses the classic paypal express checkout. Refer to this link on how to create API credentials:

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

- Use following command to install:

```
composer require srmklive/paypal:~1.0
```

- Add the service provider to your `$providers` array in `config/app.php` file like:

```
Srmklive\PayPal\Providers\PayPalServiceProvider::class
```

- Add the alias to your `$aliases` array in `config/app.php` file like:

```
'PayPal' => Srmklive\PayPal\Facades\PayPal::class
```

- Run the following command to publish configuration:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider "Srmklive\PayPal\Providers\PayPalServiceProvider"
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

- After installation, you will need to add your paypal settings. Following is the code you will find in **config/paypal.php**, which you should update accordingly.

```
return [
    'mode' => 'sandbox',        // Can only be 'sandbox' Or 'live'. If empty or invalid, 'live' will be used.
    'sandbox' => [
        'username' => '',       // Api Username
        'password' => '',       // Api Password
        'secret' => '',         // This refers to api signature
        'certificate' => '',    // Link to paypals cert file, storage_path('cert_key_pem.txt')
    ],
    'live' => [
        'username' => '',       // Api Username
        'password' => '',       // Api Password
        'secret' => '',         // This refers to api signature
        'certificate' => '',    // Link to paypals cert file, storage_path('cert_key_pem.txt')
    ],
    'payment_action' => 'Sale', // Can Only Be 'Sale', 'Authorization', 'Order'
    'currency' => 'USD',
    'notify_url' => '',         // Change this accordingly for your application.
    'validate_ssl' => true,     // Validate SSL when creating api client.
];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Following are some ways through which you can access the paypal provider:

```
// Import the class namespaces first, before using it directly
use Srmklive\PayPal\Services\ExpressCheckout;
use Srmklive\PayPal\Services\AdaptivePayments;

$provider = new ExpressCheckout;      // To use express checkout.
$provider = new AdaptivePayments;     // To use adaptive payments.

// Through facade. No need to import namespaces
$provider = PayPal::setProvider('express_checkout');      // To use express checkout(used by default).
$provider = PayPal::setProvider('adaptive_payments');     // To use adaptive payments.
```

Override PayPal API Configuration
---------------------------------

[](#override-paypal-api-configuration)

You can override PayPal API configuration by calling `setApiCredentials` method:

```
$provider->setApiCredentials($config);
```

Set Currency
------------

[](#set-currency)

By default the currency used is `USD`. If you wish to change it, you may call `setCurrency` method to set a different currency before calling any respective API methods:

```
$provider->setCurrency('EUR')->setExpressCheckout($data);
```

Additional PayPal API Parameters
--------------------------------

[](#additional-paypal-api-parameters)

By default only a specific set of parameters are used for PayPal API calls. However, if you wish specify any other additional parameters you may call the `addOptions` method before calling any respective API methods:

```
$options = [
    'BRANDNAME' => 'MyBrand',
    'LOGOIMG' => 'https://example.com/mylogo.png',
    'CHANNELTYPE' => 'Merchant'
];

$provider->addOptions($options)->setExpressCheckout($data);
```

**Warning:** Any parameters should be referenced accordingly to the API call you will perform. For example, if you are performing `SetExpressCheckout`, then you must provide the parameters as documented by PayPal for `SetExpressCheckout` to `addOptions` method.

#### Express Checkout

[](#express-checkout)

```
$data = [];
$data['items'] = [
    [
        'name' => 'Product 1',
        'price' => 9.99,
        'qty' => 1
    ],
    [
        'name' => 'Product 2',
        'price' => 4.99,
        'qty' => 2
    ]
];

$data['invoice_id'] = 1;
$data['invoice_description'] = "Order #{$data[invoice_id]} Invoice";
$data['return_url'] = url('/payment/success');
$data['cancel_url'] = url('/cart');

$total = 0;
foreach($data['items'] as $item) {
    $total += $item['price']*$item['qty'];
}

$data['total'] = $total;
```

- **SetExpressCheckout**

    ```
    $response = $provider->setExpressCheckout($data);

    // Use the following line when creating recurring payment profiles (subscriptions)
    $response = $provider->setExpressCheckout($data, true);

     // This will redirect user to PayPal
    return redirect($response['paypal_link']);
    ```

- **GetExpressCheckoutDetails**

    ```
    $response = $provider->getExpressCheckoutDetails($token);
    ```

- **DoExpressCheckoutPayment**

    ```
    // Note that 'token', 'PayerID' are values returned by PayPal when it redirects to success page after successful verification of user's PayPal info.
    $response = $provider->doExpressCheckoutPayment($data, $token, $PayerID);
    ```

- **RefundTransaction**

    ```
    $response = $provider->refundTransaction($transactionid);

    // To issue partial refund, you must provide the amount as well for refund:
    $response = $provider->refundTransaction($transactionid, 9.99);
    ```

- **CreateBillingAgreement**

    ```
    // The $token is the value returned from SetExpressCheckout API call
    $response = $provider->createBillingAgreement($token);
    ```

- **CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile**

    ```
    // The $token is the value returned from SetExpressCheckout API call
    $startdate = Carbon::now()->toAtomString();
    $profile_desc = !empty($data['subscription_desc']) ?
                $data['subscription_desc'] : $data['invoice_description'];
    $data = [
        'PROFILESTARTDATE' => $startdate,
        'DESC' => $profile_desc,
        'BILLINGPERIOD' => 'Month', // Can be 'Day', 'Week', 'SemiMonth', 'Month', 'Year'
        'BILLINGFREQUENCY' => 1, //
        'AMT' => 10, // Billing amount for each billing cycle
        'CURRENCYCODE' => 'USD', // Currency code
        'TRIALBILLINGPERIOD' => 'Day',  // (Optional) Can be 'Day', 'Week', 'SemiMonth', 'Month', 'Year'
        'TRIALBILLINGFREQUENCY' => 10, // (Optional) set 12 for monthly, 52 for yearly
        'TRIALTOTALBILLINGCYCLES' => 1, // (Optional) Change it accordingly
        'TRIALAMT' => 0, // (Optional) Change it accordingly
    ];
    $response = $provider->createRecurringPaymentsProfile($data, $token);
    ```

- **GetRecurringPaymentsProfileDetails**

    ```
    $response = $provider->getRecurringPaymentsProfileDetails($profileid);
    ```

- **UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile**

    ```
    $response = $provider->updateRecurringPaymentsProfile($data, $profileid);
    ```

- **ManageRecurringPaymentsProfileStatus**

    ```
    // Cancel recurring payment profile
    $response = $provider->cancelRecurringPaymentsProfile($profileid);

    // Suspend recurring payment profile
    $response = $provider->suspendRecurringPaymentsProfile($profileid);

    // Reactivate recurring payment profile
    $response = $provider->reactivateRecurringPaymentsProfile($profileid);
    ```

#### Adaptive Payments

[](#adaptive-payments)

To use adaptive payments, you must set the provider to use Adaptive Payments:

```
PayPal::setProvider('adaptive_payments');
```

- **Pay**

```
// Change the values accordingly for your application
$data = [
    'receivers'  => [
        [
            'email' => 'johndoe@example.com',
            'amount' => 10,
            'primary' => true,
        ],
        [
            'email' => 'janedoe@example.com',
            'amount' => 5,
            'primary' => false
        ]
    ],
    'payer' => 'EACHRECEIVER', // (Optional) Describes who pays PayPal fees. Allowed values are: 'SENDER', 'PRIMARYRECEIVER', 'EACHRECEIVER' (Default), 'SECONDARYONLY'
    'return_url' => url('payment/success'),
    'cancel_url' => url('payment/cancel'),
];

$response = $provider->createPayRequest($data);

// The above API call will return the following values if successful:
// 'responseEnvelope.ack', 'payKey', 'paymentExecStatus'
```

Next, you need to redirect the user to PayPal to authorize the payment

```
$redirect_url = $provider->getRedirectUrl('approved', $response['payKey']);

return redirect($redirect_url);
```

Handling PayPal IPN
-------------------

[](#handling-paypal-ipn)

You can also handle Instant Payment Notifications from PayPal. Suppose you have set IPN URL to **** in PayPal. To handle IPN you should do the following:

- First add the `ipn/notify` tp your routes file:

    ```
    Route::post('ipn/notify','PayPalController@postNotify'); // Change it accordingly in your application
    ```
- Open `App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken.php` and add your IPN route to `$excluded` routes variable.

    ```
    'ipn/notify'
    ```
- Write the following code in the function where you will parse IPN response:

    ```
    /**
     * Retrieve IPN Response From PayPal
     *
     * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
     */
    public function postNotify(Request $request)
    {
        // Import the namespace Srmklive\PayPal\Services\ExpressCheckout first in your controller.
        $provider = new ExpressCheckout;

        $request->merge(['cmd' => '_notify-validate']);
        $post = $request->all();

        $response = (string) $provider->verifyIPN($post);

        if ($response === 'VERIFIED') {
            // Your code goes here ...
        }
    }
    ```

Create Subscriptions
--------------------

[](#create-subscriptions)

- For example, you want to create a recurring subscriptions on paypal, first pass data to `SetExpressCheckout` API call in following format:

```
// Always update the code below accordingly to your own requirements.
$data = [];

$data['items'] = [
    [
        'name'  => "Monthly Subscription",
        'price' => 0,
        'qty'   => 1,
    ],
];

$data['subscription_desc'] = "Monthly Subscription #1";
$data['invoice_id'] = 1;
$data['invoice_description'] = "Monthly Subscription #1";
$data['return_url'] = url('/paypal/ec-checkout-success?mode=recurring');
$data['cancel_url'] = url('/');

$total = 0;
foreach ($data['items'] as $item) {
    $total += $item['price'] * $item['qty'];
}

$data['total'] = $total;
```

- Next perform the remaining steps listed in [`SetExpressCheckout`](#usage-ec-setexpresscheckout).
- Next perform the exact steps listed in [`GetExpressCheckoutDetails`](#usage-ec-getexpresscheckoutdetails).
- Finally do the following for [`CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile`](#usage-ec-createrecurringprofile)

```
$amount = 9.99;
$description = "Monthly Subscription #1";
$response = $provider->createMonthlySubscription($token, $amount, $description);

// To create recurring yearly subscription on PayPal
$response = $provider->createYearlySubscription($token, $amount, $description);
```
