I. Introduction Briefly explain the need for simplified payment integration systems. Introduce the chosen technologies: Angular 17, Paystack, Node.js, and Directus. Mention the benefits of this approach (e.g., ease of use, security). II. Backend Development (Node.js and Directus) A. Setting up the Node.js server with Express.js. B. Integrating Directus using the Node.js SDK. Creating a Directus collection for product/service data. C. Implementing Node.js API endpoints: Fetching product/service data from Directus. Processing payments using the Paystack API. III. Frontend Development (Angular 17) A. Creating an Angular application using the Angular CLI. B. Designing components for product/service display and payment forms. C. Integrating the Paystack Angular library for secure payments. D. Using Angular's HTTP client for communication with backend APIs: Retrieving product/service data. Sending payment information to the backend. IV. Integration Flow A. User selects a product/service in the Angular application. B. Frontend fetches product details from the backend API. C. User enters payment information in the Paystack form. D. Frontend sends payment information to the backend API. E. Backend processes the payment using the Paystack API. F. Upon successful payment (optional): backend updates order status in Directus. G. Frontend receives confirmation and updates the user interface.
I. Introduction Briefly explain the need for simplified payment integration. Introduce Angular 17, Paystack, Node.js, and Strapi and their roles in this solution.
II. Setting Up the Development Environment** List the required tools and software (Angular CLI, Node.js, npm/yarn, Strapi). uide on installing and setting up each tool.
III. Creating the Angular Application Explain how to use the Angular CLI to generate a new Angular 17 project. Setting up basic application structure (components, modules, services).
IV. Integrating Paystack with Angular Explain how to create a Paystack account and obtain API keys. Guide on installing the Paystack library for Angular. Implementing a payment component in Angular: User interface for entering payment details. * Using the Paystack library to initialize and handle payment requests.
V. Backend Development with Node.js and Strapi Introduction to Strapi as a headless CMS. Setting up a Node.js project and installing Strapi. Defining a Strapi content model for storing order data (product details, user information, payment status). Creating API endpoints in Strapi for: Receiving order details from the Angular application. Processing payment using the Paystack Node.js library (server-side validation and transaction creation). * Updating order status in Strapi based on Paystack response.
VI. Communication Between Angular and Backend Explain how to use Angular's HttpClient to make API calls to Strapi endpoints. Implement logic in the Angular application to send order data and handle responses from the backend.
VII. Testing and Deployment Guide on testing the payment functionality in the Angular application. Briefly discuss deployment options for the Angular application and Strapi backend.
VIII. Conclusion Recap the benefits of this approach for simplified payment integration. Mention potential future improvements or extensions.
