PayPal API

💰Easy to use framework to communicate with the PayPal API.

Only basic endpoints are supported

At this time, the package doesn't support all the endpoints of the PayPal API, as it is made for one of my projects I only built the endpoints I needed. Please open an issue if there are endpoints you want to see in.

Example

const PayPal = require("paypal-api");
const paypal = new PayPal({
    sandboxMode: true,
    clientID: 'paypal client id',
    clientSecret: 'paypal client secret'
});

paypal.listProducts().then(console.log); // you now have access to all the methods!

Products

List products

paypal.listProducts().then(console.log);

Create products

    name: "Video Streaming Service",

    type: "SERVICE",
    category: "SOFTWARE",
    image_url: "https://example.com/streaming.jpg",
    home_url: "https://example.com/home"
})
