Quick Start

1. Configure the Client

import os
from payments import PaymentClient, types

# Configure connector identity and authentication
stripe_config: types.ConnectorConfig = {
    "connectorConfig": {
        "stripe": {
            "apiKey": {"value": os.environ["STRIPE_API_KEY"]}
        }
    }
}

# Optional: Request defaults for timeouts
request_config: types.RequestConfig = {
    "http": {
        "totalTimeoutMs": 30000,
        "connectTimeoutMs": 10000
    }
}

2. Process a Payment

from payments import Currency, CaptureMethod, AuthenticationType

client = PaymentClient(stripe_config, request_config)

authorize_request = {
    "merchantTransactionId": "txn_order_001",
    "amount": {
        "minorAmount": 1000,  # $10.00
        "currency": Currency.USD
    },
    "captureMethod": CaptureMethod.AUTOMATIC,
    "paymentMethod": {
        "card": {
            "cardNumber": {"value": "4111111111111111"},
            "cardExpMonth": {"value": "12"},
            "cardExpYear": {"value": "2027"},
            "cardCvc": {"value": "123"},
            "cardHolderName": {"value": "John Doe"}
        }
    },
    "address": {"billingAddress": {}},
    "authType": AuthenticationType.NO_THREE_DS,
    "returnUrl": "https://example.com/return",
    "orderDetails": []
}

response = client.authorize(authorize_request)
print(f"Status: {response.status}")
print(f"Transaction ID: {response.connectorTransactionId}")

Service Clients

The SDK provides specialized clients for different service domains:

Client	Purpose	Key Methods
PaymentClient	Core payment operations	authorize(), capture(), refund(), void()
CustomerClient	Customer management	create()
PaymentMethodClient	Secure tokenization	tokenize()
MerchantAuthenticationClient	Auth token management	create_server_authentication_token(), create_server_session_authentication_token(), create_client_authentication_token()
EventClient	Webhook processing	handle_event()
RecurringPaymentClient	Subscription billing	charge()
PaymentMethodAuthenticationClient	3DS authentication	pre_authenticate(), authenticate(), post_authenticate()

---

Authentication Examples

Stripe (HeaderKey)

import os
from payments import types

stripe_config: types.ConnectorConfig = {
    "connectorConfig": {
        "stripe": {
            "apiKey": {"value": os.environ["STRIPE_API_KEY"]}
        }
    }
}

PayPal (SignatureKey)

import os
from payments import types

paypal_config: types.ConnectorConfig = {
    "connectorConfig": {
        "paypal": {
            "clientId": {"value": os.environ["PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID"]},
            "clientSecret": {"value": os.environ["PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET"]}
        }
    }
}

---

Advanced Configuration

Proxy Settings

from payments import types

proxy_config: types.RequestConfig = {
    "http": {
        "proxy": {
            "httpsUrl": "https://proxy.company.com:8443",
            "bypassUrls": ["http://localhost"]
        }
    }
}

Per-Request Overrides

response = client.authorize(request, {
    "http": {
        "totalTimeoutMs": 60000  # Override for this request only
    }
})

Connection Pooling

Each client instance maintains its own connection pool. For best performance:

# ✅ Create client once, reuse for multiple requests
client = PaymentClient(config, defaults)

for payment in payments:
    client.authorize(payment)

---

Error Handling

from payments import IntegrationError, ConnectorError

try:
    response = client.authorize(request)
except IntegrationError as e:
    # Request-phase error (auth, URL construction, serialization, etc.)
    print(f"Code: {e.error_code}")
    print(f"Status: {e.status_code}")
    print(f"Message: {e.message}")
except ConnectorError as e:
    # Response-phase error (deserialization, transformation, etc.)
    print(f"Code: {e.error_code}")
    print(f"Status: {e.status_code}")
    print(f"Message: {e.message}")

Error Codes

Code	Description
CONNECT_TIMEOUT	Failed to establish connection
RESPONSE_TIMEOUT	No response received from gateway
TOTAL_TIMEOUT	Overall request timeout exceeded
NETWORK_FAILURE	General network error
INVALID_CONFIGURATION	Configuration error
CLIENT_INITIALIZATION	SDK initialization failed

Complete Example: PayPal with Access Token

import os
from payments import (
    PaymentClient,
    MerchantAuthenticationClient,
    types
)

# Configure PayPal
paypal_config: types.ConnectorConfig = {
    "connectorConfig": {
        "paypal": {
            "clientId": {"value": os.environ["PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID"]},
            "clientSecret": {"value": os.environ["PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET"]}
        }
    }
}

# Step 1: Get access token
auth_client = MerchantAuthenticationClient(paypal_config)
token_response = auth_client.create_server_authentication_token({
    "merchantAccessTokenId": "token_001",
    "connector": "PAYPAL",
    "testMode": True
})

# Step 2: Authorize with access token
payment_client = PaymentClient(paypal_config)
payment_response = payment_client.authorize({
    "merchantTransactionId": "txn_001",
    "amount": {
        "minorAmount": 1000,
        "currency": "USD"
    },
    "captureMethod": "AUTOMATIC",
    "paymentMethod": {
        "card": {
            "cardNumber": {"value": "4111111111111111"},
            "cardExpMonth": {"value": "12"},
            "cardExpYear": {"value": "2027"},
            "cardCvc": {"value": "123"}
        }
    },
    "state": {
        "accessToken": {
            "token": {"value": token_response.accessToken.value},
            "tokenType": "Bearer",
            "expiresInSeconds": token_response.expiresInSeconds
        }
    },
    "testMode": True
})

print(f"Payment status: {payment_response.status}")

Architecture

Your App → Service Client → ConnectorClient → UniFFI FFI → Rust Core → Connector API
                ↓
         Connection Pool (httpx)

The SDK uses:

• UniFFI — FFI bindings to Rust
• protobuf — Protocol buffer serialization
• httpx — High-performance HTTP client with connection pooling

Building from Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/juspay/connector-service.git
cd connector-service/sdk/python

# Build native library, generate bindings, and pack
make pack

# Run tests
make test-pack

# With live API credentials
STRIPE_API_KEY=sk_test_xxx make test-pack

How it works

1. make build-lib — builds crates/ffi/ffi with --features uniffi
2. make generate-bindings — runs uniffi-bindgen to produce generated/connector_service_ffi.py
3. make generate-proto — runs grpc_tools.protoc to produce generated/payment_pb2.py
4. make pack-archive — runs pip wheel to produce the installable .whl
