Datatrans

Ruby adapter for the Datatrans payment gateway (http://www.datatrans.ch).

Configuration

Set your datatrans credentials in your environment.

Datatrans.configure do |config|
  config.merchant_id = '1234567'
  config.sign_key = 'ab739fd5b7c2a1...'
  config.environment = :production
end

Possible values for the environment: :production, :development

Web Authorization

If you want to process a credit card the first time a web authorization is necessary. Add the following code to a controller action that shows the form. You need to pass at least amount, currency and refno (order number).

@transaction = Datatrans::Web::Transaction.new({
  :amount => 1000, # in cents!
  :currency => 'CHF',
  :refno => 'ABCDEF',
  :uppCustomerEmail => '[email protected]'
  # feel free to add more upp infos here ...
})

In your View your show the credit card form with a convenient helper:

In this example we use just ECA (Mastercard) as paymentmethod. Feel free to provide an appropriate select field to offer more payment methods. This is the form you will show in your "new" method.

= form_tag Datatrans.web_authorize_url do

  = text_field_tag :paymentmethod, 'ECA'
  = text_field_tag :cardno
  = text_field_tag :expm
  = text_field_tag :expy
  = text_field_tag :cvv

  = hidden_field_tag :successUrl, <your_application_return_url>
  = hidden_field_tag :cancelUrl, <your_application_return_url>
  = hidden_field_tag :errorUrl, <your_application_return_url>

  = datatrans_notification_request_hidden_fields(@transaction)

  = submit_tag "send"

In this example we use just ECA (Mastercard) as paymentmethod. Feel free to provide an appropriate select field to offer more payment methods. Don't forget to add successUrl, cancelUrl and errorUrl. We recommend to set them all to the same value.

After you submit the request to Datatrans they redirect back to your application. Now you can process the transaction like this:

begin
  transaction = Datatrans::Web::Transaction.new(params)

  if transaction.authorize
    # transaction was successful, access the following attributes
    # transaction.transaction_id
    # transaction.creditcard_alias
    # transaction.masked_cc
    # transaction.authorization_code
    # ...

  else
    # transaction was not successful, accces the error details
    # transaction.error_code, transaction.error_message, transaction.error_detail

  end 
rescue Datatrans::InvalidSignatureError => exception
  # the signature was wrong, the request may have been compromised...
end

XML Transactions

If you have already a credit card alias or an authorized transaction you can use the convenient XML methods to process payments.

Authorize

transaction = Datatrans::XML::Transaction.new(
  :refno => 'ABCDEF',
  :amount => 1000, # in cents!
  :currency => 'CHF',
  :aliasCC => '8383843729284848348',
  :expm => 12,
  :expy => 15
)

if transaction.authorize
  # ok, the transaction is authorized...
  # access same values as in the web authorization (e.g. transaction.transaction_id)
else
  # transaction.error_code, transaction.error_message, transaction.error_detail
end

Capture

To capture an authorized transaction you use the following code:

transaction = Datatrans::XML::Transaction.new(
  :refno => 'ABCDEF',
  :amount => 1000, # in cents!
  :currency => 'CHF',
  :transaction_id => 19834324987349723948729834
)

begin
  if transaction.capture
    # ok, the money is yours...
  else
    # transaction.error_code, transaction.error_message, transaction.error_detail
  end
rescue Datatrans::InvalidSignatureError => exception
  # the signature was wrong, the request may have been compromised...
end

Void

To make an authorized transaction invalid use void.

transaction = Datatrans::XML::Transaction.new(
  :refno => 'ABCDEF',
  :amount => 1000, # in cents!
  :currency => 'CHF',
  :transaction_id => 19834324987349723948729834
)

if transaction.void
  # ok, the transaction is not longer valid...
else
  # transaction.error_code, transaction.error_message, transaction.error_detail
end

Todo

  • allow signing of xml transactions
  • allow signing with different keys
  • add credit method to reverse already captured transactions
  • add purchase method to authorize and capture in one step
  • dry code more

Contribute

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add specs for it. This is important so we don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself we can ignore when we pull)
  • Send us a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
