Location and Naming Convention

For a new plugin, the following location conventions must be used:

• Each plugin is deployed in its own folder in the document root. The document root path is /var/www/pa-payment-sdk.

• Each folder must have the same name as the plug-in script name. For example, the PayPal plug-in path must be $(DOCUMENT_ROOT)/PayPal/PayPal.php.

• The plug-in directory may contain an internationalization directory $(PLUGIN_NAME)/i18n that contains a set of files with language specific strings (case-sensitive):

  • The file name must be: <two-letter language code>.strings (for example, en.string for English, or ru.string for Russian).

  • The file must contain all language-specific strings for the given language; each string must start from the new line.

  • The structure of each string must be: "<key>" "<translation>" (for example, "unknown_error" "Unknown payment error. Check logs for more information.").

• Any other files used by the plugin can be placed into the plug-in directory.

• The plug-in script file must implement all methods using the following notation: $(PLUGIN_NAME)_$(METHOD_NAME). For example, the TestConnection method must have the following signature in the PayPal.php script file:

  Copy

  function PayPal_TestConnection($params)
