Django & PayPal integration

Question

I am designing a website in Python (using Django), and I need to sell things through it.

Can somebody help me with the source code to integrate the paypal-pro (do-direct payment) or else paypal-standard (express checkout)?

Answer 1

You might want to try django-paypal, there's even a tutorial right there on the front page.

Answer 2

paypal.standard.ipn

PayPal API Generates a Button which will call its API through paypal.standard.ipn.

For API Integration you have to follow below given steps:

Install django-paypal:

pip install django-paypal 

Update settings.py file:

INSTALLED_APPS = [     'paypal.standard.ipn', ]  PAYPAL_RECEIVER_EMAIL = 'XXXXX' PAYPAL_TEST = True 

Write Email address of Receiver. PAYPAL_TEST = True means you want a Test API payment. You can write "False" for Original payment API.

Run command:

python manage.py migrate  

In urls.py:

url(r'^paypal/', include('paypal.standard.ipn.urls')), url(r'^payment_process/$', api_views.payment_process, name='payment_process' ), url(r'^payment_done/$', TemplateView.as_view(template_name= "pets/payment_done.html"), name='payment_done'), url(r'^payment_canceled/$', TemplateView.as_view(template_name= "pets/payment_canceled.html"), name='payment_canceled'),* 

In views.py:

from django.conf import settings from django.urls import reverse from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404 from paypal.standard.forms import PayPalPaymentsForm   def payment_process(request):     host = request.get_host()     paypal_dict = {         'business': settings.PAYPAL_RECEIVER_EMAIL,         'amount': '100',         'item_name': 'Item_Name_xyz',         'invoice': 'Test Payment Invoice',         'currency_code': 'USD',         'notify_url': 'http://{}{}'.format(host, reverse('paypal-ipn')),         'return_url': 'http://{}{}'.format(host, reverse('payment_done')),         'cancel_return': 'http://{}{}'.format(host, reverse('payment_canceled')),     }     form = PayPalPaymentsForm(initial=paypal_dict)     return render(request, 'pets/payment_process.html', {'form': form}) 

Follow video tutorial for django-code given in reference.

In payment_process.html:

{{ form.render }} 

For calling API you have request for /payment_process/. It will generate a button on HTML which calls PayPal API for transaction. Further process will be done on PayPal end, Login or Card Payment.
