For more information about the API as well as NodeJS code samples check out the full API documentation

Installation

npm install --save paymentrails

Getting Started

The Trolley API is built using promises and all methods except connect will return a promise. The connect call allows you to setup your API Key and Secret with a client that can be used for subsequent calls.

// A simple application using the Trolley/Payment Rails SDK
const trolley = require('paymentrails');

const client = trolley.connect({
  key: "YOUR-API-KEY",
  secret: "YOUR-API-SECRET",
  environment: "production",
});

// Async/Await version

async function main() {
  const recipient = await client.recipient.find("R-G7SXXpm6cs4aTUd9YhmgWC");
  console.log(recipient.id);
}

main();

// Promise version

client.recipient.find("R-G7SXXpm6cs4aTUd9YhmgWC").then(recipient => {
  console.log(recipient.id);
}).catch(err => {
  console.log("ERROR", err);
});

Usage

Methods should all have JSDoc comments to help you understand their usage. As mentioned the full API documentation is the best source of information about the API.

For more information please read the JavaScript API docs is available. The best starting point is:

Data Type	SDK Documentation
Batch	API Docs for Batch
Payment	API Docs for Payment
Recipient	API Docs for Recipient

Running Integration / Unit tests

If you're working on the library itself, here's easy way to run the tests.

// if not already, copy the example env file to create an env file
$ cp .env.test .env

// Set access key and secret in the env file
TROLLEY_ENVIRONMENT="production"
TROLLEY_ACCESS_KEY="ACCESS_KEY"
TROLLEY_SECRET_KEY="SECRET_KEY"

//Run the fixture based tests
$ npm test

Footnotes

1. Payment Rails is now Trolley. We're in the process of updating our SDKs to support the new domain. In this transition phase, you might still see "PaymentRails" at some places. ↩
