Integrate NodeJS and Forte

Trexle connects NodeJS to Forte and 100+ other payment gateways using a single plugin for one time annual fee

Forte and NodeJS Integration Guide

To begin the integration process, merchants should contact their Forte representative who will provision their information to a sandbox account. Once provisioned, Forte sends the merchant an Account ID, Location ID, an API Access ID, and an API Secure Key for the sandbox environments. NOTE: The Location ID represents the same information as the Merchant ID in the Virtual Terminal.

For Live environment Forte’s REST services rely on Basic access authentication over HTTPS using an API Access ID and an API Secure Key as the username and password values. Forte will assign your APIAccessID and APISecureKey. 

 

Take the credentials you just obtained from Forte and navigate to Trexle dashboard, click Payments Gateways and select Forte from the drop down menu as shown below.

Fill into your Forte credential and click Add Gateway. Click the Activate button next to Forte, and it will give you a success message and the button will turn into green. You should see something like below.

To integrate Forte and NodeJS you need Trexle API keys

In your NodeJS project, open a terminal and issue the following command:

npm install trexlejs

If you want to test, consider writing the following example in a test.js file:

var Trexle = require('trexlejs');

var trexle = Trexle.setup({
key: ‘your-api-key’,
production: false
});

trexle.createCharge({
amount: 400,
currency: ‘usd’,
description: ‘test charge’,
email: ‘[email protected]’,
ip_address: ‘66.249.79.118’,
card: {
number: ‘4242424242424242’,
expiry_month: 8,
expiry_year: 2018,
cvc: 123,
name: ‘John Milwood’,
address_line1: ‘423 Shoreline Park’,
address_city: ‘Mountain View’,
address_postcode: 94043,
address_state: ‘CA’,
address_country: ‘US’
}
}, function (response) {
console.log(response.body);
});

Then run the code:

node test.js

Forte does not provide test card numbers but provides a sandbox environment for testing all/any cards without actually carrying out the actual transactions.

About NodeJS

Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment for executing JavaScript code server-side, and uses the Chrome V8 JavaScript engine. Historically, JavaScript was used primarily for client-side scripting, in which scripts written in JavaScript are embedded in a webpage's HTML, to be run client-side by a JavaScript engine in the user's web browser. Node.js enables JavaScript to be used for server-side scripting, and runs scripts server-side to produce dynamic web page content before the page is sent to the user's web browser.
