beanstream-nodejs

NodeJS integration to Beanstream API.

The Node SDK for Beanstream lets you take payments, save payment profiles, and run reports on your transactions. It's easy to get started, just follow the steps below

Get Started

Step 1) Install the module using NPM

Import the project directly from npm:

npm install beanstream-node

Step 2) Import the module to your project

var beanstream = require('beanstream-node')('merchantId', 'Payments API key', 'Profiles API key', 'Reporting API key');

Supply your merchant ID, payments API Key, Profiles API key (optional), and Reporting API key (optional).

Step 3) Make a Payment

The Beanstream SDK uses promises to handle asynchronous calls to the server. You will get your results in a Promise object. Here is an example:

var tokenPayment = {
  order_number: 'order-abc1234',
  amount:10.00,
  payment_method:'card',
  token:{
    name:'John Doe',
    code: 'token-string',
    complete: true
  }
};
beanstream.payments.makePayment(tokenPayment)
  .then(function(response){
    // successful payment
    console.log("Payment response: ", response);
  })
  .catch(function(error){
    // all errors end up here, even declined payments
    console.log(error);
  });

Here is an example with a raw card number:

var cardPayment = {
  order_number: 'order-abc1234',
  amount:10.00,
  payment_method:'card',
  card:{
    name:'John Doe',
    number:'5100000010001004',
    expiry_month:'02',
    expiry_year:'19',
    cvd:'123'
  }
};
beanstream.payments.makePayment(cardPayment)
  .then(function(response){
    // successful payment
    console.log("Payment response: ", response);
  })
  .catch(function(error){
    // all errors end up here, even declined payments
    console.log(error);
  });

Note that you should tokenize cards in your client-side app in order to reduce your PCI scope. More: http://developer.beanstream.com/documentation/legato/

• create a card token
• make a payment with a token
• make a card payment
• make a card pre-authorization and completion
• make a payment profile
• charge a payment profile
• update payment profiles
• query your transaction history using reports
