REST API SDK for Node.js

Repository for PayPal's Node.js SDK (node.js version >=0.6.x) and Node.js samples for REST API. Refer Node.js Sample Reference App for a sample web app implementing the REST APIs.

Usage

To write an app using the SDK

• Register for a developer account and get your client_id and secret at PayPal Developer Portal.

• Add dependency 'paypal-rest-sdk' in your package.json file.

• Require 'paypal-rest-sdk' in your file

   var paypal_sdk = require('paypal-rest-sdk');

• Create config options, with required parameters (host, port, client_id, secret).

  var config_options ={
  'host': 'api.sandbox.paypal.com',
  'port': '',
  'client_id': 'EBWKjlELKMYqRNQ6sYvFo64FtaRLRR5BdHEESmha49TM',
  'client_secret': 'EO422dn3gQLgDbuwqTjzrFgFtaRLRR5BdHEESmha49TM'
  };

• Invoke the rest api (eg: store a credit card) with required parameters (eg: data, config_options, callback).

  var card_data = {
   	"type": "visa",
   	"number": "4417119669820331",
   	"expire_month": "11",
   	"expire_year": "2018",
   	"cvv2": "123",
   	"first_name": "Joe",
   	"last_name": "Shopper"
   };
  
  paypal_sdk.credit_card.create(card_data, config_options, function(err , res){
  	if (err) {
  		console.log(err);
  		throw err;
  	}
  	if (res) {
  		console.log("Create Credit-Card Response");
  		console.log(res);
  	}
  })

If mocha is not installed
