Requisites

To run and install this application you need:

node and npm
A PayPal developer account

How to run this prototype

First, clone the repo. Then, to install, run:

npm install

Setup

In the PayPal developer's dashboard create a business sandbox account and a REST API app linked to said account. This app will have a certain client-id and a secret. Use those to generate an access token:

curl -v https://api-m.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/oauth2/token \
   -H "Accept: application/json" \
   -H "Accept-Language: en_US" \
   -u "<client-id>:<secret>" \
   -d "grant_type=client_credentials"

You also need a Paypal-Partner-Attribution-Id, that can be obtained by contacting the PayPal support team.

After that, copy serverConfig.json.example in serverConfig.json and set the Attribution-Id, the access-token and the client-id.

Once everything is set up, the application can be run.

Run server

To run the server, open the src directory and run nodemon:

cd src
nodemon srver.js

Run the web app

To run the web app, run:

npm start

A browser window should then open, with our web app working and connected to PayPal.
