Steps

How to install the plugin

You can choose to import the demo app or create the app from scratch.

Steps for importing demo app

1. If you choose to import the demo app, you can get it from Download Demo App.

2. Go to Joget Home or All Apps and click on Import App to import the downloaded demo app.

3. Fill in the stripe and payment API and client keys.

Figure 2: Fill in the API and client keys

Steps for creating app from scratch

1. The first part of the app is the form. You can create a form to hold the hidden fields for Stripe payment method to work smoothly. You can also attach any extra tool in this form as this form will get submitted and thus running the post processing tool.

2. Generate a CRUD for the hidden field form.

3. Create another form to receive customer information input.

Figure 5: Stripe Customer Payment Form

4. Add a custom HTML to let user easily click on the generated link later on. The table name will be the form with the hidden fields.

5. Attach the plugin tool to the customer form created. You should not attach this tool at the hidden field form.

6. Fill in the plugin configurations. Refer to Payment Processor Tool Properties for more information on how to fill the plugin configurations. Redirect Details will be the form created in next step.

7. Create a form for order confirmation page, to act as the redirected page after the payment has been made.

Payment Status field with ID payment_status is compulsory to ensure that user does not click on the same link twice to avoid duplicated payment.

8. To configure the alert message, we retrieve the parameter "src" that is redirected from the payment processor web service, and store it in a hidden field alertmsg.

9. Create a section that holds the success or warning message. Configure the visibility of the section based on the hidden field value from alertmsg. Refer to table 1 for more information.

Table 1: "src" Parameter Value

10. Create a custom HTML to show the message when each section is visible. A sample code block for the success message is shown below. Please configure accordingly based on your desired message output.

<div id="alertmsgSuccess" class="alert alert-success alert-dismissible fade show" role="alert">
    <strong>Payment Success!</strong> - Thank you, your payment has been successfully processed.
    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
        <span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
    </button>
</div>

11. Configure the similar hidden field form, customer form and order confirmation form for Paypal. The only difference is that for paypal, these hidden fields are different with Stripe, and are also compulsory to ensure Paypal payment method works smoothly.

12. Create a UI to hold all the forms and datalist. Use the hidden field form as the List, customer form for Add and Edit.

13. Create a hidden category to hold the order confirmation forms. The Menu ID of the order confirmation pages will be used in the Redirect Details in plugin configurations.

5. After payment is complete, you can see that you are redirected to the order confirmation page. The payment intent details are saved to the same form as the payment link form (form with hidden fields). You can configure the payment intent into table form or retrieve any values that you think are useful to your use case.
