I haven't used this project in years so it probably bitrotted away. If you are interested in taking over maintainership please get in touch.

This applicaiton is a paypal backend for django-SHOP, or any other shop system implementing its shop interface. It uses django-paypal as a way to actually communicate with paypal.

Add django-paypal and this project to your INSTALLED_APPS::

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'paypal.standard.ipn',
'shop_paypal',
...
)

Add 'shop_paypal.offsite_paypal.OffsitePaypalBackend' to django-SHOP's SHOP_PAYMENT_BACKENDS setting.

Make sure you set following in settings.py:

• PAYPAL_RECEIVER_EMAIL
• PAYPAL_CURRENCY_CODE (see https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_nvp_currency_codes)

Optional settings:

• PAYPAL_LC - paypal language (see: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?&cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_nvp_country_codes)

Plenty of stuff is left to do! If you feel like giving a hand, please pick a task in the follwing list:

• Implement more functionalities from django-paypal in different backends (one for direct payments, one for professional accounts...)
• Port the shop API to other shop systems, so they can also easily use this project as a backend. Examples include but are not limited to: plata, satchmo, lfs

Feel free to post any comment or suggestion for this project on the django-shop mailing list or on #djanho-shop on freenode :)
