Installation

Installing PhonePeKit is straightforward. Add it to your Package.swift:

.package(url: "https://github.com/vamsii777/phonepe-kit.git", from: "main")

Usage

Using PhonePeKit is intuitive. Here’s a quick example of initiating a payment:

import PhonePeKit

func initiatePayment() async throws -> PayRequest {
    let httpClient = HTTPClient(..)
    let phonepe = PhonePeClient(
        httpClient: httpClient, 
        saltKey: "your_salt_key", 
        saltIndex: "your_salt_index", 
        environment: .sandbox
    )
    
    let request = PayRequest(
        merchantId: "PGTESTPAYUAT",
        merchantTransactionId: "MT7850590068188104",
        amount: 10000,
        merchantUserId: "MUID123",
        redirectUrl: "https://webhook.site/redirect-url",
        redirectMode: .POST,
        callbackUrl: "https://webhook.site/callback-url",
        paymentInstrument: PayRequest.PaymentInstrument(type: .PAY_PAGE),
        mobileNumber: "9999999999"
    )
    
    let response = try await phonepe.payments.initiatePayment(request: request)
    return response
}

Task {
    do {
        let response = try await initiatePayment()
        print("Payment initiated successfully. Response: \(response)")
    } catch {
        print("Error initiating payment: \(error)")
    }
}

Future Directions

As PhonePeKit evolves, we plan to:

🚀 Expand its capabilities
🐛 Address known issues in the Health Status feature
🤝 Welcome community contributions
📈 Improve performance and reliability

💡 Pro Tip: We encourage feedback and contributions from the Swift developer community to make PhonePeKit even better.

Conclusion

PhonePeKit represents a significant step forward in simplifying the integration of PhonePe’s payment gateway into Swift applications.
