I want to integrate paypal into my apps. I was close to getting there until i saw this : https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/support/faq#non-US-dev Paypal does not allow non-US developer to use the REST API. So the choice that I am left with is the classic api. That is where the problem comes in. I do not know how to use them.
I am planning to use NVP api. I have no clue how to do it but below is my flow chart of the way I am planning to do. I need to set the item number, description, price, etc at checkout.java which will send to www.domain.com/setsessions.php
I am not sure if it will work though. But even if it can, then I wonder how can the new 'intent' detect whether user has made payment successfully, fail payment or cancel payment.
I need help with this. It is really frustrating..have been trying to integrate paypal for almost 2 weeks. Feel so unproductive..
Is this even okay? Or is there a better method? My requirement is to set the invoice no.,item no,description,price, location, all these are required from the app.
MainActivity.java
public class PizzaMain extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
PayPal ppObj = PayPal.initWithAppID(this.getBaseContext(), "APP-80W284485P519543T", PayPal.ENV_NONE);
CheckoutButton launchPayPalButton = ppObj.getCheckoutButton(this, PayPal.BUTTON_152x33, CheckoutButton.TEXT_PAY);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_HORIZONTAL);
launchPayPalButton.setLayoutParams(params);
launchPayPalButton.setOnClickListener(this);
((RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.mRlayout1)).addView(launchPayPalButton);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
PayPalPayment newPayment = new PayPalPayment();
char val[] = { '5', '0' };
BigDecimal obj_0 = new BigDecimal(val);
newPayment.setSubtotal(obj_0);
newPayment.setCurrencyType("USD");
newPayment.setRecipient("my@email.com");
newPayment.setMerchantName("My Company");
Intent paypalIntent = PayPal.getInstance().checkout(newPayment, this);
this.startActivityForResult(paypalIntent, 1);
}
@SuppressWarnings("unused")
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
switch (resultCode) {
case Activity.RESULT_OK:
// The payment succeeded
String payKey = data.getStringExtra(PayPalActivity.EXTRA_PAY_KEY);
// Tell the user their payment succeeded
break;
case Activity.RESULT_CANCELED:
// The payment was canceled
// Tell the user their payment was canceled
break;
case PayPalActivity.RESULT_FAILURE:
// The payment failed -- we get the error from the EXTRA_ERROR_ID
// and EXTRA_ERROR_MESSAGE
String errorID = data.getStringExtra(PayPalActivity.EXTRA_ERROR_ID);
String errorMessage = data.getStringExtra(PayPalActivity.EXTRA_ERROR_MESSAGE);
// Tell the user their payment was failed.
break;
}
}
}
