Arifpay Node.js Library

The Arifpay Node library provides convenient access to the Arifpay API from applications written in server-side JavaScript.

Documentation

Requirements

Node 8, 10 or higher.

Installation

Install the package with:

npm install arifpay --save
# or

The package needs to be configured with your account's API key, which is available in the Arifpay Dashboard. Require it with the key's value:

const arifpay = require('arifpay')('API KEY...');

Or using ES modules and async/await:

import Arifpay from 'arifpay';
const arifpay = new Arifpay('API KEY...');

//for common js

const Arifpay =  require('arifpay').default;
const arifpay  = new Arifpay('API KEY...');

Usage with TypeScript

Import Arifpay as a default import.

import Arifpay from 'arifpay';
const arifpay = new Arifpay('API KEY...');

You can find a full server example in arifpay-samples.

Creating Checkout Session

After importing the arifpay package, use the checkout property of the Arifpay instance to create or fetch checkout sessions.

    const arifpay = new Arifpay('API KEY...');
    const date = new Date();
    date.setMonth(10);
    const expired = getExpireDateFromDate(date);
    const data: ArifpayCheckoutRequest = {
      beneficiaries: [
        {
          accountNumber: 'account number',
          bank: 'bank id',
          amount: amount,
        },
      ],
      cancelUrl: 'https://gateway.arifpay.net/',
      errorUrl: 'https://gateway.arifpay.net/',
      notifyUrl: 'https://gateway.arifpay.net/',
      expireDate: expired,
      nonce: Math.floor(Math.random() * 10000).toString(),
      paymentMethods: [],
      successUrl: 'https://gateway.arifpay.net',
      items: [
        {
          name: 'Banana',
          price: 10.0,
          quantity: 1,
          image: "image url",
          description: "description..."
        },
      ],
    };

After putting your building ArifpayCheckoutRequest just call the create method. Note passing sandbox: true option will create the session in test environment.

    let session = await arifpay.checkout.create(data, { sandbox: true});
    console.log(session)

This is session response object contains the following fields

{
  sessionId: string;
  paymentUrl: string;
  cancelUrl: string;
  totalAmount: number;
}

Getting Session by Session ID

To track the progress of a checkout session you can use the fetch method as shown below:

 const arifpay = new Arifpay('API KEY...');
// A sessionId will be returned when creating a session.
 const session = await arifpay.checkout.fetch('checkOutSessionID', { sandbox: true});

The following object represents a session

{
  id: number;
  transaction: ArifpayTranscation;
  totalAmount: number;
  test: boolean;
  updatedAt: string;
  createdAt: string;
  uuid: string;
  cancelUrl: string;
  nonce: string;
  errorUrl: string;
  notifyUrl: string;
  successUrl: string;
  paymentMethods: string[];
  expireDate: string;
  items: ArifpayCheckoutItem[];
  beneficiaries: ArifpayBeneficary[];
}

Cancel Session by Session ID

If the merchant want to cancel a checkout session. it's now possible as shown below.

 $arifpay = new Arifpay('API KEY...');
// A sessionId will be returned when creating a session.
 $session = $arifpay->checkout->cancel('checkOutSessionID', new ArifpayOptions(true));

The ArifpayCheckoutSession class is returned.
