Node.js M-Pesa API with V2 Stk push
Please this project is not yet completed, I tested b2c and generate credential end points (v2) and it's not working but for stk push it's ok M-Pesa Library for Node.js using REST API M-Pesa Library for Node.js using REST API
Prerequisites
- Node v6+, 8+ recommended.
- Yarn* (optional) You can still use npm
- ES6 knowledge
Installation
Use npm/yarn:
npm i mpesa-ya-node
Pre-Usage
Please make sure you have read the documentation on Daraja before continuing.
You need the following before getting to use this library:
- Consumer Key and Consume Secret
- Test Credentials (Optional only for sandbox)
Getting Started
This library is extremely modular, meaning you can create more than one Mpesa instance
const Mpesa = require('mpesa-ya-node')
const mpesaApi = new Mpesa({ consumerKey: '<your consumer key>', consumerSecret: '<your consumer secret>' })
// another instance
// const instance = new Mpesa({ consumerKey: 'test', consumerSecret: 'test', environment: 'production' })
mpesaApi
.c2bSimulate(
254708374149,
500,
'h6dk0Ue2'
)
.then((result) => {
//do something
})
.catch((err) => {
// retry?
})
While working with the Mpesa Class, you only need two key-value items, ie: consumerKey and consumerSecret. Nonetheless, prefilling some things means you dont have to re-enter them again. A complete config object looks like this
new Mpesa({
consumerKey: '<your consumer key>',
consumerSecret: '<your consumer secret>',
environment: 'sandbox',
shortCode: '600111',
initiatorName: 'Test Initiator',
lipaNaMpesaShortCode: 123456,
lipaNaMpesaShortPass: '<some key here>',
securityCredential: '<credential here>',
certPath: path.resolve('keys/myKey.cert')
})
API
Please note that this library is in active development, use in production with caution.
Current API:
const mpesaApi = new Mpesa({ consumerKey: '<your consumer key>', consumerSecret: '<your consumer secret>' })
const {
accountBalance,
b2b,
b2c,
c2bRegister,
c2bSimulate,
lipaNaMpesaOnline,
lipaNaMpesaQuery,
reversal,
transactionStatus
} = mpesaApi
Ofcourse you dont need to import all methods, you can import the only ones you need.
All methods return a <Promise>
, hence you can use .then
or await
.
All calls are done by Axios, so for the response structure check Axios documentation.
Methods
This initiates a business to customer transactions from a company (shortcode) to end users (mobile numbers) of their services.
/*
* b2c(senderParty, receiverParty, amount, queueUrl, resultUrl, commandId = 'BusinessPayment', initiatorName = null, remarks = 'B2C Payment', occasion = null)
* Example:
*/
const { shortCode } = mpesaApi.configs
const testMSISDN = 254708374149
await mpesaApi.b2c(shortCode, testMSISDN, 100, URL + '/b2c/timeout', URL + '/b2c/success')
This initiates a business to business transaction between one company to another.
/*
* b2c(senderParty, receiverParty, amount, queueUrl, resultUrl, senderType = 4, receiverType = 4, initiator = null, commandId = 'BusinessToBusinessTransfer', accountRef = null, remarks = 'B2B Request')
* Example:
*/
const { shortCode } = mpesaApi.configs
const testShortcode2 = 600000
await mpesaApi.b2b(shortCode, testShortcode2, 100, URL + '/b2b/timeout', URL + '/b2b/success')
This initiates a C2B confirmation and validation registration for a company's URLs
/*
* c2bRegister(confirmationUrl, validationUrl, shortCode = null, responseType = 'Completed')
* Example:
*/
await mpesaApi.c2bRegister(URL + '/c2b/validation', URL + '/c2b/success')
This initiates a C2B transaction between an end-user and a company (paybill or till number)
/*
* c2bSimulate(msisdn, amount, billRefNumber, commandId = 'CustomerPayBillOnline', shortCode = null)
* Example:
*/
const testMSISDN = 254708374149
await mPesa.c2bSimulate(testMSISDN, 100, Math.random().toString(35).substr(2, 7))
• M-Pesa Express Request - Lipa Na M-Pesa Online Payment API
This initiates a Lipa Na M-Pesa Online Payment transaction using STK Push.
/*
* lipaNaMpesaOnline(senderMsisdn, amount, callbackUrl, accountRef, transactionDesc = 'Lipa na mpesa online', transactionType = 'CustomerPayBillOnline', shortCode = null, passKey = null)
* Example:
*/
const testMSISDN = 254708374149
const amount = 100
const accountRef = Math.random().toString(35).substr(2, 7)
await mpesaApi.lipaNaMpesaOnline(testMSISDN, amount, URL + '/lipanampesa/success', accountRef)
• M-Pesa Express Query Request - Lipa Na M-Pesa Query Request API
This API checks the status of a Lipa Na M-Pesa Online Payment transaction
/*
* lipaNaMpesaQuery(checkoutRequestId, shortCode = null, passKey = null)
* Example:
*/
const checkoutRequestId ='ws_co_123456789'
await mpesaApi.lipaNaMpesaQuery(checkoutRequestId)
This initiates an M-Pesa transaction reversal on B2B, B2C or C2B API
/*
* reversal(transactionId, amount, queueUrl, resultUrl, shortCode = null, remarks = 'Reversal', occasion = 'Reversal', initiator = null, receiverIdType = '11', commandId = 'TransactionReversal')
* Example:
*/
await mpesaApi.reversal('LKXXXX1234', 100, URL + '/reversal/timeout', URL + '/reversal/success')
This API is used to check the status of B2B, B2C and C2B transactions
/*
* transactionStatus(transactionId, receiverParty, idType, queueUrl, resultUrl, remarks = 'TransactionReversal', occasion = 'TransactionReversal', initiator = null, commandId = 'TransactionStatusQuery')
* Example:
*/
await mpesaApi.transactionStatus('LKXXXX1234', shortCode, 4, URL + '/transactionstatus/timeout', URL + '/transactionstatus/success')
This initiates a request for the account balance of a shortcode
/*
* accountBalance(shortCode, idType, queueUrl, resultUrl, remarks = 'Checking account balance', initiator = null, commandId = 'AccountBalance')
* Example:
*/
const { shortCode } = mpesaApi.configs
await mpesaApi.accountBalance(shortCode, 4, URL + '/accountbalance/timeout', URL + '/accountbalance/success')
Testing
Testing needs you to clone this repo.
The command below runs both integration and unit test.
Integration tests launch a ngrok instance and await callbacks (you will need an active internet connection for this).
To run each separately, check package.json
for the commands.
npm test
Going Live/Production
You will need to first click on "Going Live" on Daraja
The only thing you need to tweek in this Libs config is environment
:
new Mpesa({
consumerKey: '<your consumer key>',
consumerSecret: '<your consumer secret>',
environment: 'production', //<------
.....
})
Pending Stuff
- [x] E2E Integration Tests
- [x] Deploy to Npm
- [x] Reduce number of args
- [x] Detailed Documentation
- [ ] Enumify
- [ ] Validators for MSISDN and other expected inputs
- [x] More detailed Unit tests
- [ ] Handle all Promises
