The missing PayPal tool for Node
PayPal has literally A TON of documentation, but little to none is targeted for NodeJS users.
This is a simple tool to create payments using the modern and elegant version of PayPal, solving hours of research, trial and error.
yarn add tiny-paypal
# npm install tiny-paypal
const PayPal = require('tiny-paypal');
const CLIENT_ID = "your-client-id-here";
const CLIENT_SECRET = "your-client-secret-here";
const SUCCESS_CALLBACK_URL = "https://www.your-store.com/success";
const CANCEL_CALLBACK_URL = "https://www.your-store.com/checkout";
const defaults = {
sandbox: true, // leave blank for production (default)
currency: "EUR", // by default "USD"
successCallbackUrl: SUCCESS_CALLBACK_URL,
cancelCallbackUrl: CANCEL_CALLBACK_URL
};
const paypal = new PayPal(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, defaults);
If you just want to charge an amount of money, you can invoke this method:
try {
const payment = await paypal.createPayment({
amount: 10,
description: "My Shop Inc.",
// optional fields
shipping: 5, // 0 by default
discount: 4, // 0 by default
discountText: "Welcome discount", // "Discount" by default
currency: "EUR", // overrides the value by default
successCallbackUrl: "https://www.your-store.com/payment-success", // overrides the value set before
cancelCallbackUrl: "https://www.your-store.com/payment-canceled" // overrides the value set before
});
// Handle the result here
console.log("Payment ID:", payment.id);
console.log("Redirect URL", payment.redirect); // Redirect your client's browser to this URL
console.log("Info URL", payment.get); // Get the payment info from this URL
console.log("Execute URL", payment.execute); // Execute the payment through this URL (payment approval is needed)
}
catch (error) {
// Handle the error
console.error(error.message);
}
To display a list of the items on the PayPal screen, you can use TinyPaypal like this:
try {
const payment = await paypal.createCartPayment({
cart: [{
name: "Product 1",
description: "Product 1 description here", // optional
price: 3,
quantity: 10, // optional
sku: '#1234' // optional
}, {
name: "Product 2",
description: "Product 2 description here", // optional
price: 4,
quantity: 5, // optional
sku: '#1235' // optional
}],
description: "My Shop Inc.",
// optional fields
shipping: 5,
discount: 4,
discountText: "Welcome discount", // "Discount" by default
currency: "EUR", // overrides the value by default
successCallbackUrl: "https://www.your-store.com/payment-success", // overrides the value set before
cancelCallbackUrl: "https://www.your-store.com/payment-canceled" // overrides the value set before
});
// Handle the result here
console.log("Payment ID:", payment.id);
console.log("Redirect URL", payment.redirect); // Redirect your client's browser to this URL
console.log("Info URL", payment.get); // Get the payment info from this URL
console.log("Execute URL", payment.execute); // Execute the payment through this URL (payment approval is needed)
}
catch (error) {
// Handle the error
console.error(error.message);
}
Next, you need to redirect your client to result.redirect
. When the client confirms the payment, PayPal will redirect the browser to the SUCCESS_CALLBACK_URL
with three query string parameters: paymentId
, token
and PayerID
.
try {
const result = await paypal.executePayment("payment-id", "token", "payer-id");
console.log("Payment result:", result);
}
catch (error) {
// Handle the error
console.error(error.message);
}
This will log to the console something like:
Response: { id: 'PAY-1NA38651KW861730HK6HVNHQ',
intent: 'sale',
state: 'approved',
cart: '9H784395YC168205K',
payer:
{ payment_method: 'paypal',
status: 'VERIFIED',
payer_info:
{
email: 'buyer@company.pro',
first_name: 'Test',
last_name: 'Buyer',
payer_id: 'MEFWRPEQDM(2J',
shipping_address: [Object],
country_code: 'ES',
billing_address: [Object] } },
transactions:
[ { amount: [Object],

description: 'ACME Corporation Store',
item_list: [Object],
