About

Implementation of the iDEAL v3.3.1 specification in Python.

Installation

You can install ideal either via the Python Package Index (PyPI) or from source.

To install using pip:

$ pip install -U ideal

Usage

It is assumed you have already requested access at your bank for iDEAL.

1. Install the ideal library:

   $ pip install ideal

2. Generate or locate your certificates (cert.cer, and priv.pem) and your bank’s public certificate (here named ideal_v3.cer but depends on your bank), and place them in a folder where your web application can access them.

3. Create a config file called ideal.cfg (or copy and modify the ideal-example.cfg):

   [ideal]
   debug = 1
   private_key_file = priv.pem
   private_key_password = secret
   private_certificate = cert.cer
   certificates = ideal_v3.cer
   merchant_id = 123456789
   sub_id = 0
   merchant_return_url = https://www.example.com/ideal/callback/
   acquirer = ING

4. In Python, make sure your settings are initialized by loading the config file:

   from ideal.conf import settings
   settings.load('ideal.cfg')
   
   # You may adjust (or completely define) your settings (capitalized) in Python as well
   settings.DEBUG = True

5. After your settings are loaded, you can communicate with iDEAL:

   from ideal.client import IdealClient
   ideal = IdealClient()
   
   response = ideal.get_issuers()
   print response.issuers

Settings

These settings are lower-case and stored in your ideal.cfg file (or in Django’s settings.py, prefixed with IDEAL_).

DEBUG (boolean)

Uses the test URL of the acquirer if set to True, otherwise the production URL is used (default: True).

PRIVATE_KEY_FILE (string)

Absolute path to the merchant’s private key (default: priv.pem).

PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD (string)

Password to access the merchant’s private key.

PRIVATE_CERTIFICATE (string)

Absolute path to the merchant’s private certificate (default: cert.cer).

CERTIFICATES (list or comma-separated string if file config is used)

Absolute path the the acquirer’s iDEAL certificate (default: ideal_v3.cer).

MERCHANT_ID (string)

The ID of the online shop, received by the acceptor during the iDEAL registration process.

SUB_ID (string)

Sub ID of the online shop, also received during the registration process (default: 0).

MERCHANT_RETURN_URL (string)

The callback URL for iDEAL. The customer is redirected to this URL after the payment process at the acquirer.

EXPIRATION_PERIOD (string)

The time a transaction is valid for in ISO 8601 format, minimum is 1 minute, maximum is 1 hour (default: PT15M).

ACQUIRER (string)

Acquirer code to identify the endpoint. Valid values are: [ING, RABOBANK] (default: None).

ACQUIRER_URL (string)

Overrides the default acquirer URL and ignores the ACQUIRER and DEBUG setting (default: None).

LANGUAGE (string)

Response language in ISO 639-1 format, only Dutch (nl) and English (en) are supported (default: nl).

Testing

To run all unit tests, download the entire package and run:

$ python setup.py test

Contrib

Django

1. All settings can be capitalized and prefixed with IDEAL_ and placed in Django’s settings.py file, rather than using a configuration file. Of course, you may still use the settings file method.

2. Add ideal.contrib.django.ideal_compat to your INSTALLED_APPS.

3. Run python manage.py migrate to create the Issuer table in your database, to store a local copy of all issuers.

4. Run python manage.py sync_issuers to fill the Issuer table with a list of issuers. You should run this command every day or so using a cronjob.

5. You should create a view to handle the iDEAL callback and add the URL (as defined in your settings as MERCHANT_RETURN_URL) to your urls.py. Below, you’ll find an example view to redirect the use depending on the transaction status:

   from django.views.generic.base import RedirectView
   from ideal.client import IdealClient, TransactionStatus
   from ideal.exceptions import IdealException
   
   class IdealCallbackView(RedirectView):
       permanent = False
   
       def get_redirect_url(self, **kwargs):
           """
           Simplistic view to handle the callback. You probably want to update your database with the transaction
           status as well, or sent a confirmation email, etc.
           """
           client = IdealClient()
   
           try:
               response = client.get_transaction_status(self.request.GET.get('trxid'))
               if response.status == TransactionStatus.SUCCESS:
                   # Redirect to some view with a success message.
                   return '<payment success url>'
           except IdealException, e:
               # Do something with the error message.
               error_message = e.message
   
           # Redirect to some view with a failure message.
           return '<payment failed url>'

6. Optionally, you can add the the following to your main urls.py to test your configuration and perform all iDEAL operations via a web interface:

   if settings.DEBUG:
       urlpatterns += [
           url(r'^ideal/tests/', include('ideal.contrib.django.ideal_compat.test_urls')),
       ]

7. If you are in DEBUG mode and use runserver, you can point your browser to: http://localhost:8000/ideal/tests/.
