Clover SDK for Javascript Integration
Current version: 1.1.0-RC1
Overview
This SDK provides an API to allow your web application using Javascript to interface with a Clover® Mini device (https://www.clover.com/pos-hardware/mini)
The API is available on GitHub for download, and can be used in conjunction with the proper browser framework from a NodeJS require
directive, hosted on NPM
- The remotepay/ICloverConnector is the high-level API with methods like
Sale()
, VoidTransaction()
, ManualRefund()
, etc. - The remotepay/ICloverConnectorListener is the high-level listener API that defines callback methods like
onSaleResponse
, onRefundPaymentResponse
, etc. - The API includes objects that map to standard Clover objects such as
Payment
, CardTransaction
, Order
, etc. These objects will match those defined in clover-android-sdk
The library requires the browser you use to support WebSockets. See WebSocket Browser Support.
Examples
Application

Release Notes
Version 1.1.0-RC1
A deprecated beta version of the Connector (Clover.js) is included in this version with require
directive syntax, but will removed in the future.
The beta version includes the earliest library as well as a server with examples of the functions.
Quickstart
Clover's cloud connector API. Published as an NPM package. Intended for use in a browser environment.
At a Glance
Make a sale.
require("prototype");
var $ = require('jQuery');
var clover = require("remote-pay-cloud");
var log = clover.Logger.create();
var connector = new clover.CloverConnectorFactory().createICloverConnector({
"oauthToken": "1e7a9007-141a-293d-f41d-f603f0842139",
"merchantId": "BBFF8NBCXEMDV",
"clientId": "3RPTN642FHXTX",
"deviceSerialId": "C031UQ52340015",
"domain": "https://dev1.dev.clover.com/"
});
var ExampleCloverConnectorListener = Class.create( clover.remotepay.ICloverConnectorListener, {
initialize: function (cloverConnector) {
this.cloverConnector = cloverConnector;
},
onReady: function (merchantInfo) {
var saleRequest = new clover.remotepay.SaleRequest();
saleRequest.setExternalId(clover.CloverID.getNewId());
saleRequest.setAmount(10000);
this.cloverConnector.sale(saleRequest);
},
onVerifySignatureRequest: function (request) {
log.info(request);
this.cloverConnector.acceptSignature(request);
},
onSaleResponse: function (response) {
log.info(response);
connector.dispose();
if(!response.getIsSale()) {
console.error("Response is not an sale!");
console.error(response);
}
}
});
var connectorListener = new ExampleCloverConnectorListener(connector);
connector.addCloverConnectorListener(connectorListener);
connector.initializeConnection();
// Close the connection cleanly on exit. This should be done with all connectors.
$(window).on('beforeunload ', function () {
try {
connector.dispose();
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
});
To make a payment using the High Level Cloud API
Import the libraries needed to create the clover object.
require("prototype");
var clover = require("remote-pay-cloud");
Create the Clover Connector object.
This will require gathering the configuration information to create the connector. In this example, the configuration is hard coded. The creation of the connector is done using the connector factory.
var connector = new clover.CloverConnectorFactory().createICloverConnector({
"merchantId": "BBFF8NBCXEMDT",
"clientId": "3RPTN642FHXTC",
"deviceSerialId": "C031UQ52340045",
"domain": "https://dev1.dev.clover.com/"
});
There are several ways the Clover Connector object can be configured.
Examples of configurations that can be used when creating the Clover Connector object:
- With a clientID, domain, merchantId, deviceSerialId
{
"clientId" : "3BZPZ6A6FQ8ZM",
"domain" : "https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/",
"merchantId" : "VKYQ0RVGMYHRS",
"deviceSerialId" : "C021UQ52341078"
}
- With a oauthToken, domain, merchantId, clientId, deviceSerialId
{
"oauthToken" : "6e6313e8-fe33-8662-7ff2-3a6690e0ff14",
"domain" : "https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/",
"merchantId" : "VKYQ0RVGMYHRS",
"clientId" : "3BZPZ6A6FQ8ZM",
"deviceSerialId" : "C021UQ52341078"
}
Define a listener that will listen for events produced byt the Clover Connector.
The functions implemented will be called as the connector encounters the events. These functions can be found in the clover.remotepay.ICloverConnectorListener.
var ExampleCloverConnectorListener = Class.create( clover.remotepay.ICloverConnectorListener, {
// This function overrides the basic prototype.js initialization function. This example
// expects that a coler connector implementation instance is passed to the created listener.
initialize: function (cloverConnector) {
this.cloverConnector = cloverConnector;
},
// The ICloverConnectorListener function that is called when the device is ready to be used.
// This example starts up a sale for $100
onReady: function (merchantInfo) {
var saleRequest = new clover.remotepay.SaleRequest();
saleRequest.setExternalId(clover.CloverID.getNewId());
saleRequest.setAmount(10000);
this.cloverConnector.sale(saleRequest);
},
// The ICloverConnectorListener function that is called when the device needs to have a signature
// accepted, or rejected.
// This example accepts the signature, sight unseen
onVerifySignatureRequest: function (request) {
log.info(request);
this.cloverConnector.acceptSignature(request);
},
// The ICloverConnectorListener function that is called when a sale request is completed.
// This example logs the response, and disposes of the connector. If the response is not an expected
// type, it will log an error.
onSaleResponse: function (response) {
log.info(response);
connector.dispose();
if(!response.getIsSale()) {
console.error("Response is not an sale!");
console.error(response);
}
}
}
Add the listener instance to the connector, and initialize the connection to the device.
var connectorListener = new ExampleCloverConnectorListener(connector);
connector.addCloverConnectorListener(connectorListener);
connector.initializeConnection();
Clean up the connection on exit of the window. This should be done with all connectors.
This example uses jQuery to add a hook for the window beforeunload
event that ensures that the connector is displosed of.
$(window).on('beforeunload ', function () {
try {
connector.dispose();
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
}
});
