A simple to use payments module around the Mpesa Daraja API

Project description

Daraja - Easy to use wrapper around M-Pesa Daraja API

PyPI version

This module provides functions around the Mpesa Daraja API to simplify the whole integration process(problem).

This is what you need to do to get things running:

  1. Fill out the config.json file with your credentials from Daraja dashboard.

  2. Install daraja with pip install daraja

  3. Import the mpesa module from daraja like so:

from daraja import Mpesa
  1. Instantiate a Mpesa object with only two parameters, the config.json file and your environment(either "dev" or "prod"); dev being a development environment and prod being a production environment. This value is used to determine the API endpoints that will be used.
...

mpesa = Mpesa(config_file="config.json", env="prod")
  1. Use the Mpesa object to do stuff, like so:
...
response = mpesa.stk(receiver="254791500264", amount=50)
print(response)

I am working on extending this to cover all the remaining features the Daraja API has to offer. If you can help with it, contact me.
