Default amount setting for the 'lipa na mpesa'

[Brightmuk]

django_daraja/mpesa.core In the stk_push function the amount variable is by default set to 1 Here is the rendered json data data = { 'BusinessShortCode': business_short_code, 'Password': password, 'Timestamp': timestamp, 'TransactionType': transaction_type, 'Amount': '1', 'PartyA': party_a, 'PartyB': party_b, 'PhoneNumber': phone_number, 'CallBackURL': callback_url, 'AccountReference': account_reference, 'TransactionDesc': transaction_desc }

Encountered the same. Did you manage to change? or get a work around?

I had to use the library as a django app. I simply moved the lib from my packages in the virtual environment then registered it as an app. Finally all you have to do is edit the core.py file at def stk_push function by changing amount to as follows: data = { 'BusinessShortCode': business_short_code, 'Password': password, 'Timestamp': timestamp, 'TransactionType': transaction_type, 'Amount': str(amount), 'PartyA': party_a, 'PartyB': party_b, 'PhoneNumber': phone_number, 'CallBackURL': callback_url, 'AccountReference': account_reference, 'TransactionDesc': transaction_desc } So instead of importing the library you just import the app.

Sorry for the delay, I've resolved the default amount tag issue. Sorted in version 1.1.2
