Firstgiving and NodeJS Integration Guide

API Authentication
In order to submit requests against Firstgiving API, you must first signup as a FirstGiving.com API partner. Firstgiving will give you what we call an “application id” and a “security token”. This is similar to a username & password. You will identify your requests with your application token and security id on each request.

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

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

To integrate Firstgiving 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({

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.
