MVola API Python Library

A robust Python library for integrating with MVola mobile payment API in Madagascar.

Installation

 pip install mvola-api-lib

Features

• Simple and intuitive API for MVola payment integration
• Handles authentication token generation and management
• Supports merchant payment operations
• Comprehensive error handling
• Logging support
• Built-in parameter validation
• Works with both sandbox and production environments

Quick Start

from mvola_api import MVolaClient, SANDBOX_URL

# Initialize the client
client = MVolaClient(
    consumer_key="your_consumer_key",
    consumer_secret="your_consumer_secret",
    partner_name="Your Application Name",
    partner_msisdn="0340000000",  # Your merchant number
    sandbox=True  # Use sandbox environment
)

# Generate a token
token_data = client.generate_token()
print(f"Token generated: {token_data['access_token'][:10]}...")

# Initiate a payment
result = client.initiate_payment(
    amount=10000,
    debit_msisdn="0343500003",  # Customer phone number
    credit_msisdn="0343500004",  # Merchant phone number
    description="Payment for service",
    callback_url="https://example.com/callback"
)

# Track the server correlation ID for status checks
server_correlation_id = result['response']['serverCorrelationId']
print(f"Transaction initiated with correlation ID: {server_correlation_id}")

# Check transaction status
status = client.get_transaction_status(server_correlation_id)
print(f"Transaction status: {status['response']['status']}")

# Once transaction is completed, get details using transaction ID
transaction_id = status['response'].get('objectReference')
if transaction_id:
    details = client.get_transaction_details(transaction_id)
    print(f"Transaction details: {details['response']}")

Sandbox Testing

For sandbox testing, use the following test phone numbers:

• 0343500003
• 0343500004

Error Handling

The library provides custom exceptions for different error types:

from mvola_api import MVolaClient, MVolaError, MVolaAuthError, MVolaTransactionError

client = MVolaClient(...)

try:
    result = client.initiate_payment(...)
except MVolaAuthError as e:
    print(f"Authentication error: {e}")
except MVolaTransactionError as e:
    print(f"Transaction error: {e}")
except MVolaError as e:
    print(f"General MVola error: {e}")

API Documentation

MVolaClient

The main client class for interacting with MVola API.

Initialization

client = MVolaClient(
    consumer_key,          # Consumer key from MVola Developer Portal
    consumer_secret,       # Consumer secret from MVola Developer Portal
    partner_name,          # Your application/merchant name
    partner_msisdn=None,   # Partner MSISDN (phone number)
    sandbox=True,          # Use sandbox environment
    logger=None            # Custom logger
)

Methods

• generate_token(force_refresh=False): Generate an access token
• initiate_payment(amount, debit_msisdn, credit_msisdn, description, ...): Initiate a merchant payment
• get_transaction_status(server_correlation_id, user_language="FR"): Get transaction status
• get_transaction_details(transaction_id, user_language="FR"): Get transaction details

Best Practices

1. Token Management: The library handles token refresh automatically, but you can force a refresh if needed.
2. Error Handling: Always implement proper error handling in your application.
3. Logging: The library includes logging, but you can provide your own logger.
4. Sandbox Testing: Always test your integration in the sandbox environment before going live.
5. Webhook Handling: Implement proper webhook handling for transaction notifications.
