NAME

Business::CPI::Gateway::Base - Father of all gateways

VERSION

version 0.912

ATTRIBUTES

driver_name

The name of the driver for this gateway. This is built automatically, but can be customized.

Example: for Business::CPI::Gateway::TestGateway, the driver name will be TestGateway.

log

Provide a logger to the gateway. It's the user's responsibility to configure the logger. By default, nothing is logged. You could set this to a Log::Log4perl object, for instance, to get full logging.

item_class

The class for the items (products) being purchased. Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Item if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Item otherwise.

cart_class

The class for the shopping cart (the complete order). Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Cart if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Cart otherwise.

buyer_class

The class for the buyer (the sender). Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Buyer if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Buyer otherwise.

account_class

The class for the accounts. Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Account if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Account otherwise.

account_address_class

The class for the addresses for the accounts. Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Account::Address if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Account::Address otherwise.

account_business_class

The class for the business information of accounts. Defaults to Business::CPI::${driver_name}::Account::Business if it exists, or Business::CPI::Base::Account::Business otherwise.

receiver_id

ID, login or e-mail of the business owner. The way the gateway uniquely identifies the account owner.

currency

Currency code, such as BRL, EUR, USD, etc.

notification_url

The url for the gateway to postback, notifying payment changes.

return_url

The url for the customer to return to, after they finished the payment.

checkout_with_token

Boolean attribute to determine whether the form will hold the entire cart, or it will use the payment token generated for it. Defaults to false.

checkout_url

The url the application will post the form to. Defined by the gateway.

METHODS

new_cart

Creates a new Business::CPI::Role::Cart connected to this gateway.

new_account

Creates a new instance of an account. In general, you shouldn't need to use this, except for testing. Use create_account, instead, if your driver provides it.

get_checkout_code

Generates a payment token for a given cart. Do not call this method directly. Instead, see "get_checkout_code" in Business::CPI::Role::Cart.

get_notification_details

Get the payment notification (such as PayPal's IPN), and return a hashref with the details.

query_transactions

Search past transactions.

get_transaction_details

Get more details about a given transaction.

notify

This is supposed to be called when the gateway sends a notification about a payment status change to the application. Receives the request as a parameter (in a CGI-compatible format), and returns data about the payment. The format is still under discussion, and is soon to be documented.

map_object

Helper method for get_hidden_inputs to translate between Business::CPI and the gateway, using methods like checkout_form_items_map, checkout_form_buyer_map, etc.
