NAME

WebService::PayPal::NVP - PayPal NVP API

DESCRIPTION

A pure object oriented interface to PayPal's NVP API (Name-Value Pair). A lot of the logic in this module was taken from Business::PayPal::NVP. I re-wrote it because it wasn't working with Catalyst adaptors and I couldn't save instances of it in Moose-type accessors. Otherwise it worked fine. So if you don't need that kind of support you should visit Business::PayPal::NVP!. Currently supports do_direct_payment, do_express_checkout_payment, get_express_checkout_details and set_express_checkout. Another difference with this module compared to Business::PayPal::NVP is that the keys may be passed as lowercase. Also, a response will return a WebService::PayPal::NVP::Response object where the response values are methods. Timestamps will automatically be converted to DateTime objects for your convenience.

SYNTAX

my $nvp = WebService::PayPal::NVP->new(
    user   => 'user.tld'
    pwd    => 'xxx',
    sig    => 'xxxxxxx',
    branch => 'sandbox',
);

my $res = $nvp->set_express_checkout({
    DESC              => 'Payment for something cool',
    AMT               => 25.00,
    CURRENCYCODE      => 'GBP',
    PAYMENTACTION     => 'Sale',
    RETURNURL         => "http://returnurl.tld",
    CANCELURL         => 'http//cancelurl.tld",
    LANDINGPAGE       => 'Login',
    ADDOVERRIDE       => 1,
    SHIPTONAME        => "Customer Name",
    SHIPTOSTREET      => "7 Customer Street", 
    SHIPTOSTREET2     => "", 
    SHIPTOCITY        => "Town", 
    SHIPTOZIP         => "Postcode", 
    SHIPTOEMAIL       => "customer\@example.com", 
    SHIPTOCOUNTRYCODE => 'GB',
});

if ($res->success) {
    # timestamps turned into DateTime objects
    say "Response received at "
        . $res->timestamp->dmy . " "
        . $res->timestamp->hms(':');

    say $res->token;

    for my $arg ($res->args) {
        if ($res->has_arg($arg)) {
            say "$arg => " . $res->$arg;
        }
    }

    # get a redirect uri to paypal express checkout
    # the Response object will automatically detect if you have 
    # live or sandbox and return the appropriate url for you
    if (my $redirect_user_to = $res->express_checkout_uri) {
        $web_framework->redirect( $redirect_user_to );
    }
}
else {
    say $_
      for @{$res->errors};
}
