Node.js client for the GoCardless API

 

A Node.js client for the GoCardless API. For full details of the GoCardless API, see the API docs.

Installation

``bash
$ npm i gocardless-nodejs
`

Usage

$3

To initialise the client, you must provide:

- An access token.
- The environment that this token is for (see here for a list of available environments).
- Any additional options (see here for a list of supported options).


`js
const gocardless = require('gocardless-nodejs/client');
const constants = require('gocardless-nodejs/constants');


// Initialise the client.
const client = gocardless(
process.env.GC_ACCESS_TOKEN,
constants.Environments.Sandbox,
{ raiseOnIdempotencyConflict: true },
);
`

We'll illustrate the basic library usage by demonstrating on the payment resource.

For a full list of available resources, visit the GoCardless API reference.


`js
const uuidv4 = require('uuid/v4');

// Create a new payment.
const payment = await client.payments.create(
{
amount: 100,
currency: "GBP",
links: { mandate: "MD123" },
},
{ uuidv4() },
);

// List the first three payments past a certain date.
const payments = await client.payments.list({
limit: 3,
created_at: {
gt: '2020-01-01T17:01:06.000Z',
},
});

// Get a payment.
const payment = await client.payments.find('PM123');

// Update a payment.
await client.payments.update('PM123', { amount: '22' });

// Cancel a payment.
await client.payments.cancel('PM123');
`

All resources with a list method will also have an additional *all method. This method acts like the regular list method and accepts the same parameters, but instead returns an async generator.


`js
for await (const payment of client.payments.all()) {
console.log(payment.id);
}
`

- raiseOnIdempotencyConflict: set to true to raise exceptions on idempotency conflicts. Defaults to false`.
