Usage

You'll need Dwolla API Credentials to interact with the Dwolla API.

// Instantiate a Dwolla API client
var Dwolla = require('dwolla-node')(['{CLIENT_ID}', '{CLIENT_SECRET}']);
 
// Set a user's OAuth token
Dwolla.setToken('[TOKEN]');
 
// Use the Sandbox API environment, instead of production
Dwolla.sandbox = true;
 
// Send money to a Dwolla ID: 812-626-8794
Dwolla.send('[PIN]', '812-626-8794', 1.00, function(error, transactionId) {
    if(error) { console.log('Error: ' + error); }
 
    console.log('Transaction ID: ' + transactionId);
});

Tests

To run unit tests, do:

npm test

Currently, unit tests only ensure HTTP requests created by the bindings are valid. We plan to add support for testing sample API responses against the bindings. Eventually, we'd also like to support live testing against the sandbox API.

This wrapper is a forked extension of Kenan Shifflett's 'node-dwolla' module. Michael Schonfeld did much of the initial refactoring of node-dwolla.

TODO

1. Use nock module to mock http instead of mocking restler with mockery because the former lets us validate restler's behavior, which we are today assuming will always work as expected.
