How to implement Paypal into Phalcon

Hello,

i want to implement Paypal into Vokuro.

  1. If a user wants to register, they should have Read-Only permissions
  2. If a user pays, they should have Administrator permissions -> so the permissons should be changed automatically

How can i do this? What are the steps?

Hi @Stefjoe it's easy you can follow examples paypal php sdk

Good luck

I strongly suggest you to implement Paypal via their in-browser API only. Basically you only include one JS line then. Use backend only for validation (callback). If you need something - ask and I'll give you example.

It depends on what you want. For a paying service only, I suggest you too to use the paypal JS. If you want something more structured think about realizing payment module that manage payment methods and store payments. In my case I've used plugins inside a payment module to attacch different payment methods in the same code, storing the results and other useful data. That’s my solution for paypal without all the module part:

In your controller:

public function executePaypalAction(){ try{ //recover the values from the DB. I have a paymentComponent that do it. I’ve cutted its initialization foreach($paymentComponent->payment->getParameters() as $k => $v) $$k=$v; //assign the values to the view. $this->view->setVar('formaction', $paypal_url); $this->view->setVar('paypal_merchant', $paypal_merchant); //YOU NEED AN IPN NOTIFY ACTION CONTROLLER $this->view->setVar('notify_url', 'https://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].'/payment/paypal/paypalipn'); $this->view->setVar('returnUrl', $returnURL); $this->view->setVar('language', $language); $this->view->setVar('custom', $this->payment->getPaymentCode()); $this->view->setVar('ora', $ora); $this->view->setVar('data', $data); $this->view->setVar('descrizione', $descrizione); $this->view->setVar('importo', $amount); $this->view->setVar('id_order', $orderCode); $this->view->setVar('id', $portal.'-'.$orderCode); } catch (\Exception $e) { echo $e->getMessage() . '<br>'; echo '<pre>' . $e->getTraceAsString() . '</pre>'; }

$this->dispatcher->forward([
    "namespace" => "App\Payment\Controllers",
    "controller" => "paypal",
    "action"     => "index",
]);

}

The index.volt for paypal:

The IPN controller action:

public function paypalipnAction() { $this->view->disable(); $this->logger->info("Paypal ipn start"); $logmessage=''; // impostiamo nella request il 'cmd' $req = 'cmd=_notify-validate'; //controlla se ci sono o meno i magic_quotes if(function_exists('get_magic_quotes_gpc')) { $get_magic_quotes_exists = true; } //cicla tutti i valori passati in post e li riallega alla chiamata foreach ($this->request->getPost() as $key => $value) { if($get_magic_quotes_exists == true && get_magic_quotes_gpc() == 1) { $value = urlencode(stripslashes($value)); } else { $value = urlencode($value); } $req .= "&$key=$value"; }

// Post IPN data back to PayPal to validate the IPN data is genuine
// Without this step anyone can fake IPN data
//questo environment andrebbe ripreso dal payment
$environment='';

  $paypal_url = "https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr";
