Requirements

Flutterwave for business API Keys
Supported Python versions: >=2.7, !=3.0.*, !=3.1.*, !=3.2.*, !=3.3.*, !=3.4.*

Installation

To install the library, run

pip install rave_python

Note: This is currently under active development

Initialization

Import Package

The base class for this package is ‘Rave’. To use this class, add:

from rave_python import Rave

To instantiate in sandbox:

To use Rave, instantiate the Rave class with your public key. We recommend that you store your secret key in an environment variable named, RAVE_SECRET_KEY. Instantiating your rave object is therefore as simple as:

rave = Rave("YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY")

To instantiate without environment variables (Sandbox):

If you choose not to store your secret key in an environment variable, we do provide a usingEnv flag which can be set to False, but please be warned, do not use this package without environment variables in production

rave = Rave("YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY", "YOUR_SECRET_KEY", usingEnv = False)

To instantiate in production:

To initialize in production, simply set the production flag to True. It is highly discouraged but if you choose to not use environment variables, you can do so in the same way mentioned above.

rave = Rave("YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY", production=True)

Usage

This is the documentation for all of the components of rave_python

`rave.Card`

This is used to facilitate card transactions. Functions included:

.charge
.validate
.verify
.refund
.getTypeOfArgsRequired
.updatePayload

`.charge(payload)`

This is called to start a card transaction. The payload should be a dictionary containing card information. It should have the parameters:

cardno,
cvv,
currency,
country,
expirymonth,
expiryyear,
amount,
email,
phonenumber,
firstname,
lastname,
IP

Optionally, you can add a custom transaction reference using the txRef parameter. Note that if you do not specify one, it would be automatically generated. We do provide a function for generating transaction references in the Misc library. A sample call is:

res = rave.Card.charge(payload)

Returns

This call returns a dictionary. A sample response is:

 {'validationRequired': True, 'suggestedAuth': u'PIN', 'flwRef': None, 'authUrl': None, 'error': False, 'txRef': 'MC-1538095398058'}

This call raises a CardChargeError if there was a problem processing your transaction. The CardChargeError contains some information about your transaction. You can handle this as such:

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.CardChargeError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

A sample e.err contains:

{'error': True, 'txRef': 'MC-1530897824739', 'flwRef': None, 'errMsg': 'Sorry, that card number is invalid, please check and try again'}

`rave.Misc.updatePayload(authMethod, payload, arg)`

Depending on the suggestedAuth from the charge call, you may need to update the payload with a pin or address. To know which type of authentication you would require, simply call rave.Card.getTypeOfArgsRequired(suggestedAuth). This returns either pin or address. In the case of pin, you are required to call rave.Card.updatePayload(suggestedAuth, payload, pin="THE_CUSTOMER_PIN"). In the case of address, you are required to call rave.Card.updatePayload(suggestedAuth, payload, address={ THE_ADDRESS_DICTIONARY }) A typical address dictionary includes the following parameters: billingzip, billingcity, billingaddress, billingstate, billingcountry Note: suggestedAuth is the suggestedAuth returned from the initial charge call and payload is the original payload

`.validate(txRef)`

After a successful charge, most times you will be asked to verify with OTP. To check if this is required, check the validationRequired key in the res of the charge call. To validate, you need to pass the flwRef from the res of the charge call as well as the OTP. A sample validate call is:

res2 = rave.Card.validate(res["flwRef"], "12345")

Returns

This call returns a dictionary containing the txRef, flwRef among others if successful. This call raises a TransactionValidationError if the OTP is not correct or there was a problem processing your request. To handle this, write:

try:
    # Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.TransactionValidationError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

A sample e.err contains:

{'error': True, 'txRef': None, 'flwRef': 'FLW-MOCK-a7911408bd7f55f89f0211819d6fd370', 'errMsg': 'otp is required'}

`.verify(txRef)`

You can call this to check if your transaction was completed successfully. You have to pass the transaction reference generated at the point of charging. This is the txRef in the res parameter returned any of the calls (charge or validate). A sample verify call is:

res = rave.Card.verify(data["txRef"])

Returns

This call returns a dict with txRef, flwRef and transactionComplete which indicates whether the transaction was completed successfully. Sample

{'flwRef': None, 'cardToken': u'flw-t1nf-5b0f12d565cd961f73c51370b1340f1f-m03k', 'chargedAmount': 100, 'amount': 100, 'transactionComplete': True, 'error': False, 'txRef': u'MC-1538095718251'}

Please note that after charging a card successfully on rave, if you wish to save the card for further charges, in your verify payment response you will find an object: "cardtoken": "flw-t0-f6f915f53a094671d98560272572993e-m03k". This is the token you will use for card tokenization. Details are provided below.

If your call could not be completed successfully, a TransactionVerificationError is raised.

`.charge(payload_for_saved_card, chargeWithToken=True)`

This is called to start a card transaction with a card that has been saved. The payload should be a dictionary containing card information. It should have the parameters:

token,
country,
amount,
email,
firstname,
lastname,
IP,
txRef,
currency

NB: email must be the same as before the card was saved

res = rave.Card.charge(payload_for_saved_card, chargeWithToken=True)

Returns

This call returns a dictionary. A sample response is:

{'status': u'success', 'validationRequired': False, 'suggestedAuth': None, 'flwRef': u'FLW-M03K-cdb24d740fb18c242dd277fb1f74d399', 'authUrl': None, 'error': False, 'txRef': 'MC-7666-YU'}

This call raises a CardChargeError if a wrong token or email is passed or if there was a problem processing your transaction. The CardChargeError contains some information about your transaction. You can handle this as such:

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.CardChargeError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

This call also raises an IncompletePaymentDetailsError if any of the required parameters are missing. The IncompletePaymentDetailsError contains information about which parameter was not included in the payload. You can handle this such as:

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.IncompletePaymentDetailsError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])

Once this is done, call rave.Card.verify passing in the txRef returned in the response to verify the payment. Sample response:

{'flwRef': None, 'cardToken': u'flw-t1nf-5b0f12d565cd961f73c51370b1340f1f-m03k', 'chargedAmount': 1000, 'amount': 1000, 'transactionComplete': True, 'error': False, 'txRef': 'MC-7666-YU'}

rave.Card.verify raises a TransactionVerificationError if an invalid txRef is supplied. You can handle this as such:

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.CardChargeError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

NB: when charging saved cards, you do not need to call rave.card.Validate()

`.refund(flwRef, amount)`

You can call this to refund a full or partial amount of a transaction that was completed successfully. You have to pass the flw reference generated at the point of verifing the transaction. This is the flwRef in the res parameter returned any of the calls (charge or validate). A sample verify call is:

res = rave.Card.refund(data["flwRef"], amount)

Returns

This call returns a dict with status, AmountRefunded, disburse_ref and disburse_status which indicates whether the transaction was completed successfully. Sample

(True, {'settlement_id': 'NEW', 'id': 36071, 'AccountId': 49278, 'TransactionId': 1664979, 'FlwRef': 'FLW-MOCK-62986ef948d6dd127102cdb58813d216', 'walletId': 50309, 'AmountRefunded': '5000', 'status': 'completed', 'destination': 'payment_source', 'meta': '{"source":"ledgerbalance","uniquereference":"62472228710"}', 'updatedAt': '2021-01-23T01:27:11.969Z', 'createdAt': '2021-01-23T01:27:08.672Z'})

`rave.Preauth`

This is used to facilitate preauthorized card transactions. This inherits the Card class so any task you can do on Card, you can do with preauth. Functions included:

.charge
.capture
.validate
.verify
.refund
.void

** In order to preauthorize a card, you must have: 1. charged the card initially using rave.Card.charge(payload) 2. saved the token returned to you for that card. A token looks like this flw-t1nf-5b0f12d565cd961f73c51370b1340f1f-m03k **

`.charge(cardDetails, chargeWithToken=True, hasFailed=False)`

This is used to preauthorize a specific amount to be paid by a customer. Note: > it takes the same parameters as Card charge. However, the cardDetails object differs. See below for an example Once preauthorized successfully, you can then capture that held amount at a later time or date A sample charge call is:

payload = {
    "token":"flw-t1nf-5b0f12d565cd961f73c51370b1340f1f-m03k",

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.TransactionChargeError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

`.capture(flwRef)`

This is used to capture the funds held in the account. Similar to the validate call, it requires you to pass the flwRef of the transaction.

Please NOTE that the flwRef must be gotten from the response of the initial charge i.e after calling rave.Preauth.charge(payload)

A sample capture call is:

rave.Preauth.capture(data["flwRef"])

Returns

This call returns a dictionary. A sample response is:

{'error': False, 'status': 'success', 'message': 'Capture complete', 'validationRequired': False, 'txRef': 'MC-7666-YU', 'flwRef': 'FLW-PREAUTH-M03K-0bce8fe1c3561e17e026ddfbbea37fdb'}

This call raises a PreauthCaptureError if there was a problem processing your transaction. The PreauthCaptureError contains some information about your transaction. You can handle this as such:

try:
    #Your charge call
except RaveExceptions.PreauthCaptureError as e:
    print(e.err["errMsg"])
    print(e.err["flwRef"])

`.void(flwRef)`

This is used to void a preauth transaction. Similar to the validate call, it requires you to pass the flwRef.

Please NOTE that the flwRef must be gotten from the response of the initial charge i.e after calling rave.Preauth.charge(payload)

A sample void call is:

rave.Preauth.void(data["flwRef"])

`.refund(flwRef)`

This is used to refund a preauth transaction. Similar to the validate call, it requires you to pass the flwRef.

Please NOTE that the flwRef must be gotten from the response of the initial charge i.e after calling rave.Preauth.charge(payload)

A sample void call is:

rave.Preauth.refund(data["flwRef"])

`.verify(txRef)`

See rave.Card.verify above

Returns

This call returns a dictionary. A sample response is:

{'error': False, 'transactionComplete': True, 'txRef': 'MC-7666-YU', 'flwRef': None, 'amount': 1000, 'chargedAmount': 1000, 'cardToken': 'flw-t1nf-5b0f12d565cd961f73c51370b1340f1f-m03k'}

Testing

All of the SDK’s tests are written with Python’s unittest module. The tests currently test: rave.Account rave.Card rave.Transfer rave.Preauth rave.Subaccount rave.Subscriptions rave.Paymentplan They can be run like so:

python test.py

NOTE: If the test fails for creating a subaccount, just change the account_number account_bank and businesss_email to something different

NOTE: The test may fail for account validation - Pending OTP validation depending on whether the service is down or not
