Spreedly Gem

A convenient Ruby wrapper for the Spreedly API.

This is an example Ruby integration with Spreedly. This version is no longer actively updated and will be superseded by a new version in the near future. Feature parity may lag behind, so please use this gem at your own risk.

Philosophy

  • No global configuration of authentication credentials.
  • No implicit calls to the Spreedly server.
  • Don't be too clever. The real goal is for this to be a thin and simple layer over the API. The correlation between an API call and a ruby method should be as clear as possible.
  • Avoid the approach of using a proxy that at some point gets filled in with data from the server.
  • Avoid self-mutation and prefer value objects. This isn't ActiveRecord so we won't be doing things like gateway.update_attributes(attributes).
  • Don't try to improve the interface of the API by doing cool Ruby things in the gem which fix or hide icky parts of the API. Instead, improve the underlying API to reflect the improvements and then adjust the gem to use the improved underlying API.
  • Limit the number of dependencies on other gems to make it as easy possible to incorporate the gem into any project. Resist the temptation to use the goodness in gems like ActiveSupport or ActiveModel.

Installation

If you're using bundler, add the gem to your Gemfile:

gem 'spreedly'

Otherwise gem install:

$ gem install spreedly

Usage

Basic purchase

Let's start with a simple purchase when you already have a gateway token and a payment method token:

env = Spreedly::Environment.new(environment_key, access_secret)

transaction = env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 4432)

transaction.succeeded?    # => true
transaction.token         # => "aGJlY5srn7TFeYKxO5pmwi3CyJd"

The amount specified in that example was 4432. Amounts are always in cents so in this case, we're charging $44.32.

Add a gateway

What if you don't have a gateway token yet? It's pretty easy to add a test gateway:

gateway = env.add_gateway(:test)
gateway.token     # => "DnbEJaaY2egcVkCvg3s8qT38xgt"

Add a payment method

Need a payment method token to try things out? With Spreedly it's pretty straightforward to use a transparent redirect to give you a payment method token. A payment form in your application could look something like this:

<form action="<%= env.transparent_redirect_form_action %>" method="POST">
  <fieldset>
    <input name="redirect_url" type="hidden" value="http://yourdomain.com/transparent_redirect_done" />
    <input name="environment_key" type="hidden" value="<%= env.key %>" />
    <label for="credit_card_full_name">Name</label>
    <input id="credit_card_full_name" name="credit_card[full_name]" type="text" />

    <label for="credit_card_number">Card Number</label>
    <input id="credit_card_number" name="credit_card[number]" type="text" />

    <label for="credit_card_verification_value">Security Code</label>
    <input id="credit_card_verification_value" name="credit_card[verification_value]" type="text" />

    <label for="credit_card_month">Expires on</label>
    <input id="credit_card_month" name="credit_card[month]" type="text" />
    <input id="credit_card_year" name="credit_card[year]" type="text" />

    <button type='submit'>Submit Payment</button>
  </fieldset>
</form>

Notice that we can ask the environment for the form action url and that the environment knows its key to use in the hidden field.

Once Spreedly has recorded the information, it will redirect the browser to the url specified in the redirect_url field, tacking on a token that represents the credit card your customer entered. This is the payment_method token you're looking for. In this case your customer would be sent to this url:

http://yourdomain.com/transparent_redirect_done?token=OEj2G2QJZM4C10AfTLYTrsKIsZH

Once you have the payment method token (OEj2G2QJZM4C10AfTLYTrsKIsZH in this case), you can remember it and use it whenever you'd like. These test cards will help.

Retrieve a payment method

Let's say you'd like some additional information about the payment method. You can find a payment method like so:

credit_card = env.find_payment_method(token)
credit_card.last_name      # => "Jones"
credit_card.valid?         # => false

credit_card.errors
# Returns => [
#      { attribute: "first_name", key: "errors.blank", message: "First name can't be blank" },
#      { attribute: "year", key: "errors.expired", message: "Year is expired" },
#      { attribute: "year", key: "errors.invalid", message: "Year is invalid" },
#      { attribute: "number", key: "errors.blank", message: "Number can't be blank" }
#    ]

Authorize and Capture

auth_transaction = env.authorize_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 250)

if auth_transaction.succeeded?
  capture_transaction = env.capture_transaction(auth_transaction.token)
end

You can also specify an optional amount to capture.

capture_transaction = env.capture_transaction(auth_transaction.token, amount: 100)

Verify

Verify a card is legitimate so you can charge it at a later date.

env.verify_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, retain_on_success: true)

Void and refund

transaction = env.void_transaction(transaction_token)

# Refund the entire amount
transaction = env.refund_transaction(transaction_token)

# Specify an amount to be refunded
transaction = env.refund_transaction(transaction_token, amount: 104)

Retain and redact

transaction = env.retain_payment_method(payment_method_token)

transaction = env.redact_payment_method(payment_method_token)

Redact a gateway

transaction = env.redact_gateway(gateway_token)

Currencies

When you instantiate an environment, you can specify a default currency code like so:

env = Spreedly::Environment.new(environment_key, access_secret, currency_code: 'EUR')

If you don't specify a default currency code, we default to 'USD'. Calls requiring a currency code by default use the environment's currency code. And of course, you can always override it for a particular call like so:

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, amount, currency_code: "GBP")

Extra options for the basic operations

For Purchase, Authorize, Capture, Refund, Verify, and Void calls, you can specify additional options:

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, amount,
                        order_id: "123",
                        description: "The Description",
                        ip: "192.31.123.112",
                        merchant_name_descriptor: "SuperDuper Corp",
                        merchant_location_descriptor: "http://super.com"
                       )

Complete a transaction (3DS 2)

env.complete_transaction(transaction_token)

Retain on success

Retain a payment method automatically if the purchase, verify, or authorize transaction succeeded. Saves you a separate call to retain:

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, amount, retain_on_success: true)
env.verify_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, retain_on_success: true)

Retrieving gateways

gateways = env.list_gateways

# Iterate over the next chunk
next_set = env.list_gateways(gateways.last.token)

Retrieving payment methods

payment_methods = env.list_payment_methods

# Iterate over the next chunk
next_set = env.list_payment_methods(payment_methods.last.token)

Retrieving transactions

transactions = env.list_transactions

# Iterate over the next chunk
next_set = env.list_transactions(transactions.last.token)

Retrieving transactions for a payment method

transactions = env.list_transactions(nil, payment_method_token)

# Iterate over the next chunk
next_set = env.list_transactions(transactions.last.token, payment_method_token)

Retrieving one gateway

gateway = env.find_gateway(token)
gateway.gateway_type      # => 'paypal'

Retrieving one transaction

transaction = env.find_transaction(token)
transaction.order_id      # => '30-9904-31114'

Retrieving the transcript for a transaction

env.find_transcript(transaction_token)

Updating a credit card

env.update_credit_card(credit_card_token, first_name: 'JimBob', last_name: 'Jones')

Adding other types of gateways

gateway = env.add_gateway(:paypal, mode: 'delegate', email: '[email protected]')
gateway.token     # => "2nQEJaaY3egcVkCvg2s9qT37xrb"

Adding credit cards

The primary mechanism to add a credit card is to use the transparent redirect payment form. This allows all of the sensitive information to be captured without ever touching your servers.

There are times though when you may want to add a credit card in a more "manual" fashion with an API call.

PLEASE NOTE: Using this API call can significantly increase your PCI compliance requirements.

Here's how you can do it:

options = {
email: '[email protected]', number: '5555555555554444', month: 1, year: 2023, last_name: 'Aybara', first_name: 'Perrin', data: "occupation: Blacksmith"
}
transaction = env.add_credit_card(options)

transaction.token                 # => "2nQEJaaY3egcVkCvg2s9qT37xrb"
transaction.payment_method.token            # => "7rbEKaaY0egcBkCrg2sbqTo7Qrb"
transaction.payment_method.last_name        # => "Aybara"

You can also retain the card immediately like so:

options = {
email: '[email protected]', number: '5555555555554444', month: 1, year: 2023, last_name: 'Aybara', first_name: 'Perrin', data: "occupation: Blacksmith", retained: true
}
transaction = env.add_credit_card(options)

transaction.payment_method.storage_state    # => "retained"

And you might want to specify a number of other details like the billing address, etc:

options = {
email: '[email protected]', number: '9555555555554444', month: 3, year: 2021, last_name: 'Smedry', first_name: 'Leavenworth', data: "talent: Late", address1: '10 Dragon Lane', address2: 'Suite 9', city: 'Tuki Tuki', state: 'Mokia', zip: '1122', country: 'Free Kingdoms', phone_number: '81Ab', retained: true
}

transaction = env.add_credit_card(options)

transaction.payment_method.last_name      # => "Smedry"

Getting meta information about the supported gateways

You can get the full list of supported gateways like so:

env.gateway_options

Getting meta information about the supported payment method distribution receivers

You can get the full list of supported receivers like so:

env.receiver_options

Delivering a payment method

You can deliver a payment method to a third party using Payment Method Distribution. Once a receiver is set up and you have a payment method that you would like to share, you can use the following call:

env.deliver_to_receiver(
  "receiver token goes here",
  "payment method token goes here",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  url: "https://spreedly-echo.herokuapp.com",
  body: { card_number: "{{credit_card_number}}" }.to_json
)

Error Handling

When you make a call to the API, there are times when things don't go as expected. For the most part, when a call is made, a Transaction is created behind the scenes at Spreedly. In general, you can inquire whether that transaction succeeded? or not and get it's message. There are times when a Transaction cannot be created, and in general, an exception is raised for these cases.

You can be as specific as you'd like in handling these exceptions or, you could simply rescue Spreedly::Error to handle all of them.

Declined purchase

transaction = env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 4432)

transaction.succeeded?  # => false
transaction.message     # => "Unable to process the purchase transaction."

Invalid payment method

transaction = env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 4432)

transaction.succeeded?  # => false
transaction.message     # => "The payment method is invalid."

transaction.payment_method.errors
transaction.payment_method.errors
# Returns => [
#      { attribute: "last_name", key: "errors.blank", message: "Last name can't be blank" },
#      { attribute: "number", key: "errors.blank", message: "Number can't be blank" }
#    ]

Failure to find

env.find_transaction("Some Unknown Token")  # raises a Spreedly::NotFoundError

Invalid environment credentials

env = Spreedly::Environment.new(environment_key, "some bogus secret")
env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 4432) # Raises Spreedly::AuthenticationError

Unknown payment method trying to make a purchase

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, "Some Unknown Token", 4432) # Raises Spreedly::TransactionCreationError

Trying to use a non-test gateway or a non-test payment method with an inactive account

You're free to use test card data and a Test gateway to integrate Spreedly without having a paid Spreedly account. If you try to use a real card or a real gateway when your account isn't yet paid for, we'll raise an exception:

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, "Payment Method Token for a real card", 4432) # Raises Spreedly::PaymentRequiredError

Timeout errors

If Spreedly is not responding, we'll raise an exception. Spreedly itself has a timeout so that if a gateway isn't responding, it'll reflect that in the response. The gem has its own timeout to handle the case of Spreedly itself not responding. Here's an example:

env.purchase_on_gateway(gateway_token, payment_method_token, 802) # Raises Spreedly::TimeoutError

For api calls that actually talk to a payment gateway, the timout is longer since some gateways can take longer to respond when under load.

Sample applications using the gem

There are some sample applications with source code using this gem. You can find them here.

Contributing

We're happy to consider pull requests.

There are two rake tasks to help run the tests:

rake test:remote  # Run remote tests that actually hit the Spreedly site
rake test:units   # Run unit tests

To run remote tests you'll need to copy test/credentials/credentials.yml.example to test/credentials/credentials.yml and update the values of environment_key and access_secret.

When you're happy with your change, don't forget to add your contributions to CHANGELOG.md. We follow the changelog format found here.
