Lua Payments

Bindings to various payment provider APIs for use in Lua (with OpenResty via Lapis or anything that supports LuaSocket or cqueues with lua-http)

The following APIs are supported:

• Stripe
• PayPal Express Checkout
• PayPal REST
• PayPal Adaptive Payments

Install

luarocks install payments

Examples

PayPal Rest API

Create the API client:

local paypal = require("payments.paypal")

local client = paypal.PayPalRest({
  sandbox = true,
  client_id = "AVP_0123445",
  secret = "EFAAAAEFE-HELLO-WORLD",
})

Fetch some data:

local payments = client:payment_resources()

Create a new payment:

local res, status = client:create_payment({
  intent = "sale",
  payer = {
    payment_method: "paypal"
  },
  transactions = {
    {
      description = "My thinger",
      invoice_number = "P-1291829281",

      amount = {
        total = "5.99"
        currency = "USD"
      }
    }
  },
  redirect_urls = {
    return_url = "http://example.com/confirm-payment",
    cancel_url = "http://example.com/cancel-payment"
  }
})

Note: This currently uses the PayPal V1 REST API. You can force calls to go to V2 by adjusting the following field on your client instance:

client.api_version = "v2"
client:create_checkout_order({...})

Stripe

Create the API client:

local Stripe = require("payments.stripe").Stripe

local client = Stripe({
  client_id = "ca_12345",
  client_secret = "sk_test_helloworld",
  publishable_key = "pk_test_blahblahblahb"
})

Fetch some data:

-- each resource exposed by Stripe API has a respective list_, get_, and each_
-- method in this library:

local result = client:list_charges()
local result = client:list_accounts({ limit = "100 "})
local result = client:list_disputes({ starting_after = "dsp_12343" })

-- get a single item
local result = client:get_customer("cust_12o323480")

-- iterate through every refund, fetching each page as needed
for refund in client:each_refund() do
  print(refund.id)
end

Create a charge:

local result, err = client:charge({
  card = "tok_232u302"
  amount = "5.99",
  currency = "USD",
  description = "indie games"
})

Resouces can be created, updated, and deleted:

local customer = client:create_customer({
  email = "[email protected]"
})

client:update_customer(customer.id, {
  account_balance = 23023
})

client:delete_customer(customer.id)

PayPal Express Checkout

Create the API client:

local paypal = require("payments.paypal")

local client = paypal.PayPalExpressCheckout({
  sandbox = true,
  auth = {
    USER = "me_1212121.leafo.net",
    PWD = "123456789",
    SIGNATURE = "AABBBC_CCZZZXXX"
  }
})

Create a new purchase page:

local res = assert(client:set_express_checkout({
  returnurl = "http://leafo.net/success",
  cancelurl = "http://leafo.net/cancel",
  brandname = "Purchase something",
  paymentrequest_0_amt = "$5.99"
}))


-- redirect the buyer to the payment page:
print(client:checkout_url(res.TOKEN))

PayPal Adaptive Payments

Note: This is a legacy API now deprecated by PayPal. You probably don't want to be using this.

Create the API client:

local paypal = require("payments.paypal")

local client = paypal.PayPalAdaptive({
  sandbox = true,
  application_id = "APP-1234HELLOWORLD",
  auth = {
    USER = "me_1212121.leafo.net",
    PWD = "123456789",
    SIGNATURE = "AABBBC_CCZZZXXX"
  }
})

Create a new purchase page:

local res = assert(client:pay({
  cancelUrl = "http://leafo.net/cancel",
  returnUrl = "http://leafo.net/return",
  currencyCode = "EUR",
  receivers = {
    {
      email = "[email protected]",
      amount = "5.50",
      primary = true,
    },
    {
      email = "[email protected]",
      amount = "1.50",
    }
  }
}))

-- configure the checkout page
assert(client:set_payment_options(res.payKey, {
  ["displayOptions.businessName"] = "My adaptive store front"
}))

-- redirect the buyer to the payment page:
print(client:checkout_url(res.payKey))

-- after completion, you can check the payment status
local details = assert(client:payment_details(res.payKey))

HTTP Client

All of the APIs exposed here are powered by HTTP. This client supports using different HTTP client libraries depending on the environment.

If ngx is available in the global scope then Lapis' HTTP library is used by default. This will give you non-blocking requests within nginx. Otherwise, LuaSec and LuaSocket are used.

You can manually set the client by passing a http_provider parameter to any of the client constructors. For example, to use cqueues pass "http.compat.socket" as the provider:

local Stripe = require("payments.stripe").Stripe

local client = Stripe({
  http_provider = "http.compat.socket",
  -- ...
})
