payment = Payment.objects.get(payment_reference="PAY-20240405-ABC123")
print(payment.status, payment.amount)

Payment Workflow

1. Initiating a Payment

To initiate a payment, use the EcraspayService class:

from ecraspay_django.services import EcraspayService

# Initialize the service
service = EcraspayService()

# Initiate checkout
response = service.initiate_checkout(
    amount=1000.00,
    reference="PAY-20240405-ABC123",
    customer_name="John Doe",
    customer_email="[e-mail]",
    description="School Fee Payment",
    currency="NGN",
    metadata={"school": "ABC School"}
)

print("Payment Link:", response["payment_link"])

---

2. Verifying a Payment

To verify a payment, use the verify_checkout method:

response = service.verify_checkout(reference="PAY-20240405-ABC123")
print("Payment Status:", response["responseBody"]["status"])

---

Views and Endpoints

This package includes the following API endpoints:

Method	Endpoint	Description
POST	/payment/	Initiate a payment
GET	/payment/verify/<id>/	Verify a payment status

---

Signals

The package provides a webhook_received signal to handle webhook events (optional in future integration):

from django.dispatch import receiver
from ecraspay_django.views import webhook_received

@receiver(webhook_received)
def handle_webhook(sender, request, event, **kwargs):
    print("Webhook event received:", event)

---

Polling for Payment Verification

If you are not using webhooks, you can verify payments via polling. Use a periodic task scheduler like Celery or cron to check payment statuses.

Example Polling Function

from ecraspay_django.models import Payment
from ecraspay_django.services import EcraspayService

def verify_pending_payments():
    service = EcraspayService()
    pending_payments = Payment.objects.filter(status="PENDING")
    
    for payment in pending_payments:
        response = service.verify_checkout(payment.payment_reference)
        status = response["responseBody"].get("status")
        
        if status == "SUCCESS":
            payment.status = "COMPLETED"
        elif status == "FAILED":
            payment.status = "FAILED"
        payment.save()
        print(f"Payment {payment.payment_reference} updated to {payment.status}")

---

URL Configuration

Add the following URLs to your project's urls.py:

from django.urls import path
from ecraspay_django.views import PaymentView, PaymentVerificationView

urlpatterns = [
    path("payment/", PaymentView.as_view(), name="payment"),
    path("payment/verify/<str:payment_id>/", PaymentVerificationView.as_view(), name="payment-verification"),
]

---

Utilities

Generate a Payment Reference:

from ecraspay_django.utils import payment_reference_generator

reference = payment_reference_generator()
print(reference)  # e.g., PAY-20240405-ABC123
