ApplePay is awesome, and like many developers we're excited to work with it. However, since Apple hasn't yet released any public versions of the iOS SDK with it enabled, we want to make it easier for developers to plan and test their Apple Pay integrations.
We've created a replacement component for PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController
(the primary class involved in ApplePay transactions) for businesses interested in working with ApplePay called STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController
. These classes appear visually similar and behave almost identically. The primary difference is that STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController
yields test credit cards and addresses instead of accessing actual information stored on a user's iPhone. You can use it to build and test all of your UI and application logic around ApplePay, and switch it out for the real thing once ApplePay is publicly released.
Please note that this is for testing and development purposes only.
- Xcode 6+
- iOS 8+
ApplePayStubs also depends on the PassKit
framework.
Use Cocoapods or manually add the files to your repository.
You create and use instances of STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController
exactly the same way as with
PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController
.
// ViewController.m
- (void)checkoutButtonTapped {
PKPaymentRequest *request = ...;
UIViewController *controller;
#if DEBUG
controller = [[STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController alloc] initWithPaymentRequest:request];
controller.delegate = self;
#else
controller = [[PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController alloc] initWithPaymentRequest:request];
controller.delegate = self;
#endif
[self presentViewController:controller];
}
STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController
will trigger the same PKPaymentAuthorizationViewControllerDelegate
callbacks at the appropriate time on its delegate.
- (void)paymentAuthorizationViewController:(PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController *)controller
didSelectShippingAddress:(ABRecordRef)address
completion:(void (^)(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatus status, NSArray *shippingMethods, NSArray *summaryItems))completion {
[self fetchShippingCostsForAddress:address completion:^(NSArray *shippingMethods, NSError *error) {
if (error) {
completion(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatusFailure, nil, nil);
return;
}
completion(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatusSuccess, shippingMethods, [self summaryItemsForShippingMethod:shippingMethods.firstObject]);
}];
}
- (void)paymentAuthorizationViewController:(PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController *)controller
didSelectShippingMethod:(PKShippingMethod *)shippingMethod
completion:(void (^)(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatus, NSArray *summaryItems))completion {
completion(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatusSuccess, [self summaryItemsForShippingMethod:shippingMethod]);
}
- (void)paymentAuthorizationViewControllerDidFinish:(PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController *)controller {
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
When the user finishes selecting a card, as usual STPTestPaymentAuthorizationViewController
will call paymentAuthorizationViewController:didAuthorizePayment:completion
on its delegate.
This usually includes a PKPayment
that contains encrypted credit card data that you'd pass off to your payment processor (such as Stripe). To approximate this functionality, we attach a credit card number to the PKPayment
under the stp_testCardNumber
property. If you're using Stripe to handle this token, you can use our existing card APIs to turn this into a token:
- (void)paymentAuthorizationViewController:(PKPaymentAuthorizationViewController *)controller
didAuthorizePayment:(PKPayment *)payment
completion:(void (^)(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatus))completion {
void(^tokenBlock)(STPToken *token, NSError *error) = ^void(STPToken *token, NSError *error) {
if (error) {
completion(PKPaymentAuthorizationStatusFailure);
}
else {
[self createBackendChargeWithToken:token completion:completion];
}
};
#if DEBUG
STPCard *card = [STPCard new];
card.number = payment.stp_testCardNumber;
card.expMonth = 12;
card.expYear = 2020;
card.cvc = @"123";
[Stripe createTokenWithCard:card completion:tokenBlock];
#else
[Stripe createTokenWithPayment:payment
operationQueue:[NSOperationQueue mainQueue]
completion:tokenBlock];
#endif
}
(Note for the above example: Stripe tokens created from Apple Pay work interchangably with those created using manually-collected credit card details).
If you'd like to see more examples of how to use this, we use ApplePayStubs in the example app for our main iOS library.
