PayPal Checkout API SDK for NodeJS
To consolidate support across various channels, we have currently turned off the feature of GitHub issues. Please visit https://www.paypal.com/support to submit your request or ask questions within our community forum.
Welcome to PayPal NodeJS SDK. This repository contains PayPal's NodeJS SDK and samples for v2/checkout/orders and v2/payments APIs.
This is a part of the next major PayPal SDK. It includes a simplified interface to only provide simple model objects and blueprints for HTTP calls. This repo currently contains functionality for PayPal Checkout APIs which includes Orders V2 and Payments V2.
Please refer to the PayPal Checkout Integration Guide for more information. Also refer to Setup your SDK for additional information about setting up the SDK's.
Usage
Binaries
It is not mandatory to fork this repository for using the PayPal SDK. You can refer PayPal Checkout Server SDK for configuring and working with SDK without forking this code.
For contributing or referring the samples, you can fork/refer this repository.
Examples
Creating an Order
Code to Execute:
const paypal = require('@paypal/checkout-server-sdk');
// Creating an environment
let clientId = "<<PAYPAL-CLIENT-ID>>";
let clientSecret = "<<PAYPAL-CLIENT-SECRET>>";
// This sample uses SandboxEnvironment. In production, use LiveEnvironment
let environment = new paypal.core.SandboxEnvironment(clientId, clientSecret);
let client = new paypal.core.PayPalHttpClient(environment);
// Construct a request object and set desired parameters
// Here, OrdersCreateRequest() creates a POST request to /v2/checkout/orders
let request = new paypal.orders.OrdersCreateRequest();
request.requestBody({
"intent": "CAPTURE",
"purchase_units": [
{
"amount": {
"currency_code": "USD",
"value": "100.00"
}
}
]
});
// Call API with your client and get a response for your call
let createOrder = async function() {
let response = await client.execute(request);
console.log(`Response: ${JSON.stringify(response)}`);
// If call returns body in response, you can get the deserialized version from the result attribute of the response.
console.log(`Order: ${JSON.stringify(response.result)}`);
}
createOrder();Example Output:

}
],
"status": "CREATED"
}
Capturing an Order
Before Capturing an order, it should be approved by the buyer using approve link in the create order response.
Code to Execute:
let captureOrder = async function(orderId) {
request = new paypal.orders.OrdersCaptureRequest(orderId);
request.requestBody({});
// Call API with your client and get a response for your call
let response = await client.execute(request);
console.log(`Response: ${JSON.stringify(response)}`);
// If call returns body in response, you can get the deserialized version from the result attribute of the response.
console.log(`Capture: ${JSON.stringify(response.result)}`);
}
let capture = captureOrder('REPLACE-WITH-APPROVED-ORDER-ID'); Example Output:

}Running tests
To run integration tests using your client id and secret, clone this repository and run the following command:
$ npm install
$ PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID=YOUR_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET=YOUR_SANDBOX_CLIENT_SECRET npm testSamples
You can start off by trying out creating and capturing an order
To try out different samples for both create and authorize intent check this link
Note: Update the payPalClient.js with your sandbox client credentials or pass your client credentials as environment variable while executing the samples.
Note
PayPalHttpClient used as part of this project returns Promises
You can read more about Promises here: https://www.promisejs.org/
