Getting Started

You can use the API by creating an instance of PaypalClient.

const PaypalClient = require("paypal-node-api");

paypal = new PaypalClient({
    env: "sandbox",
    clientId: "id",
    secret: "secret",
    config: {}
});

env: one of either "sandbox" or "live"

clientId: your app's client id

Sharing a paypal instance:

const PaypalClient = require("paypal-node-api");

const clientId = "yourApp'sId";
const secret = "yourApp'sSecret";

const paypal = new PaypalClient("sandbox", clientId, secret);

//event handlers go here
paypal.on("auth", () => {
    console.log("Paypal token refreshed");
});

module.exports = paypal;
