Some stuff for OS/2 and Interchange.
|
This is the OS/2 version of Interchange,
v4.9.8. The zip contains a 'Readme.os2', the original 'Foundation' demo, Mike
Heins's new 'mike' demo, and my new 'hardware' demo, along with the patched
source, the pre-compiled cgi executable, and the patch.
NB: - this badly needs updating to v5.x...
I have rationalised and simplified the system for running "standard" payment methods along with
third party methods such as Google or Paypal. The variable MV_PAYMENT_MODE must be set to something, normally
your standard method such as Authorizenet (though if you only have Google or Paypal then it should be set
to that). The [charge ... ] tag in log_transaction should be altered so that 'route="[var MV_PAYMENT_MODE]"'
becomes 'route="[value mv_payment_route]"', the parameter 'pprequest="dorequest"' added into the
'[charge ..]' tag for Paypal (this will be ignored by any method that does not recognise it), the value of 'MStatus'
must be unset in the session by adding 'undef $Session->{payment_result}{MStatus};' at the beginning of
the '[calc]' block found immediately under '[elsif variable MV_PAYMENT_MODE]' (this handles the case whereby someone goes
to Google or similar but abandons it and returns to attempt a 'standard' card transaction).
You also need to create new profiles in profiles.order, including particularly those lines at the end
as per the relevant documentation and the samples supplied here.
SagePay payment module for Interchange
May 2009, v0.8.6. This is the erstwhile Protx gateway rebranded after purchase by Sage. This module
runs 3DSecure (ie, "Verified by Visa" and "Mastercard Securecode") and falls back to standard processing
for those cards not part of 3DS. Besides the usual authenticate, payment and deferred types, when used
with a suitable terminal it can also do the following: authorise, repeat, refund, void, cancel, abort
and direct payment to a credit card. It has a function to check that the Sagepay gateway is available and
optionally complete the transaction offline if it's not. It has another function to check for the response
from Sagepay being empty and then querying their database to hopefully obtain a correct response during
run-time . Their database may be queried at any time from a suitable
terminal keyed on the IC-generated 'order-id'. An 'offline' order may be converted into a normal paid order
using a suitable terminal.
TODO: Sagepay are still promising to provide the "Third Man" fraud-checking results at run-time, and if they
do I will add this function in.
As a 3DS 'authenticate' does not provide any of the normal AVS/CV2 results, a function should be added to
run an 'authorise/void' for a token amount after the 'authenticate', to get the AVS/CV2 results back.
Paypal Express Payment Module for Interchange
May 2009, v1.0.4, updated documentation, functions for refunds and 'mass pay'. Code for backing up the
order hived off to a usertag (see below). Giropay being tested in a dev version.
Full documentation is in the head.
GoogleCheckout payment module for Interchange
May 2009, v0.7.2. Updated documentation. This version uses XML::Simple rather than Google's own custom libraries.
It also uses a temporary order number until Google reports that the card has been charged, when it creates
a normal order number. It logs the order in the database as pending immediately upon hitting 'submit to Google'
and also logs a backup order in text format. It updates the database status each time that Google sends
a notification, and upon successful completion at Google it completes the IC order route and sends emails to
the customer and merchant. It allows all possible commands, eg 'refund', 'authorise', 'deliver' etc to
be actioned via a suitable admin terminal. One thing it does not do, as a result of an early policy
decision, is allow the customer to change address once at Google. This function will be added into the
next version however. All configuration options are documented in the head of the module.
Log order tag: this logs the entire basket plus the customer's delivery and billing addresses, and is intended as a failsafe backup in case your order route or something else fails. Place it in the body of the final submit button in the checkout page (some payment modules, eg PaypalExpress and SagePay) will optionally call this tag themselves without putting it in the button.
Verifyemail tag: this checks not only the format, but checks with the recipient's mail server that the address exists. Not all mail servers will respond to this check, but it's still a useful check that catches many bad addresses. Required perl modules listed in the tagThis is Apache 1.3.26, built with mod_interchange and mod_ssl for Interchange.
Perl 5.8.0, compiled with crypt and all other defines and modules needed for Interchange.
BerkeleyDB 4.1.25 built with "db1.85 compatibility". Readme, patch, tools included in zip.
This crypt is built from ufc.zip, ie, 'ultra fast crypt'. It contains crypto.lib,
crypt.lib, ufc.lib, crypt.exe, cert.exe, ufc.a, crypt.a, and crypt.h.
This updated "which" for OS/2 is very different to the Unix version. It includes searches on the BOOKSHELF (flag '-b', for .inf, .pdf), DPATH (flag -'d', for.*), LIBPATH (flag '-l', for .dll, .lib, .a), C_INCLUDE_PATH (flag '-i', for .h), HELP (flag '-h', for .hlp), as well as the PATH (for .exe, .cmd, .bat files). Flag '-a' lists all instances, flag '-s' lists size and datestamp.
