No project description provided

a Django app for receiving payment notifications from Coinbase

Getting Started

This is a fairly simple app. It’s three parts:

1. Webhook View

2. Model to store the webhook received data

3. Signal emitted on reciept/validation/storage of webhook data

First off, you’ll want to add django-coinbase to your requirements.txt and pip install it in your virtualenv. Next you’ll want to add coinbase to your INSTALLED_APPS setting of your settings.py file. Lastly, you’ll want to add a urls include to your main urls.py file for coinbase.urls.

There is a signal that you can setup a receiver for in your own project to do something with the callback data:

@receiver(order_received)
def handle_order_received(sender, order, **kwargs):
    pass  # do something with the order object, like enable a feature based on order.custom contents

You will want to set two different settings:

COINBASE_API_KEY

This is the API Key found at: https://coinbase.com/account/integrations

COINBASE_SHARED_SECRET

This is just a random key you make up and store in your settings and add to the querystring of the Instant Payment Notifications field (https://coinbase.com/merchant_settings).

This is the URL of your site + wherever you rooted the urls include + /cb/ followed with the querystring parameter secret followed by the value of this settings.

For example:

# urls.py
url(r"^payments/", include("coinbase.urls"))

# settings.py
COINBASE_SHARED_SECRET = "mysecretsauce"

>>> Site.objects.get_current().domain
example.com

# Your url would be
http://example.com/payments/cb/?secret=mysecretsauce

Development

To run test suite:

$ pip install Django django-nose django-jsonfield mock requests
$ python runtests.py
