alsharie/jawali-payment
Laravel Jawali API Client

Jawali Payment is a Laravel package for interacting with the Jawali payment gateway. It provides a simple API to perform operations like ecommerce inquiry and cash out, with automatic token management and structured responses.
Installation
-
Require the package using Composer:
composer require alsharie/jawali-payment(Replace
alsharie/jawali-paymentwith your actual package name on Packagist if you publish it, or use a local path repository for development). -
Publish the configuration file (optional, but recommended):
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Alsharie\Jawali\JawaliServiceProvider" --tag="jawali-config"This will create a
config/jawali.phpfile. -
Add the following environment variables to your
.envfile and configure them:# JAWALI (Jawali) API Configuration JAWALI_BASE_URL=https://82.114.179.89:9493/paygate # Or your actual base URL JAWALI_DISABLE_SSL_VERIFICATION=false # Set to true to disable SSL verification # Credentials for "LOGIN TO SYSTEM" API JAWALI_MERCHANT_USERNAME=your_system_login_username JAWALI_MERCHANT_PASSWORD=your_system_login_password # Credentials for Wallet Authentication & PAYAG operations JAWALI_MERCHANT_WALLET=your_agent_wallet_identifier JAWALI_MERCHANT_WALLET_PASSWORD=your_agent_wallet_password # Common Header Information for PAYWA/PAYAG APIs JAWALI_MERCHANT_ORG_ID=your_organization_id JAWALI_MERCHANT_USER_ID=your_user_id JAWALI_MERCHANT_EXTERNAL_USER=your_external_user # Optional, if applicable # Request settings JAWALI_TIMEOUT=30 JAWALI_RETRY_ENABLED=true JAWALI_RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS=2 # Logging settings (optional - for debugging) JAWALI_LOGGING_ENABLED=false
Configuration
The package uses Laravel's configuration system. After publishing the config file, you can find it at config/jawali.php. The configuration is structured as follows:
return [
'auth' => [
// For "LOGIN TO SYSTEM" API
'username' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_USERNAME'),
'password' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_PASSWORD'),
// For PAYWA/PAYAG header: signonDetail
'org_id' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_ORG_ID'),
'user_id' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_USER_ID'),
'external_user' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_EXTERNAL_USER'),
// For PAYWA.WALLETAUTHENTICATION body & PAYAG body
'wallet_identifier' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_WALLET'),
'wallet_password' => env('JAWALI_MERCHANT_WALLET_PASSWORD'),
],
'url' => [
'base' => env('JAWALI_BASE_URL', 'https://82.114.179.89:9493/paygate'),
'disable_ssl_verification' => env('JAWALI_DISABLE_SSL_VERIFICATION', false),
],
'timeout' => env('JAWALI_TIMEOUT', 30),
'retry' => [
'enabled' => env('JAWALI_RETRY_ENABLED', true),
'max_attempts' => env('JAWALI_RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS', 2),
'status_codes' => [400, 401],
],
];
The disable_ssl_verification option is particularly useful when working with development environments or self-signed certificates.
Logging Configuration
The package includes built-in logging capabilities for debugging API requests and responses. To enable logging:
-
Enable logging in your
.envfile:JAWALI_LOGGING_ENABLED=true -
Ensure the logs directory is writable:
mkdir -p storage/logs chmod 755 storage/logs
The package will log all API interactions using Laravel's default logging system. Log entries include:
- Request method, URL, and payload (with sensitive data redacted)
- Response status and data
- Error details with context
Note: Logging errors are silently ignored to prevent them from breaking the main application functionality.
Features
This package provides the following features:
- Structured Response Classes: Each API response is wrapped in a dedicated response class that provides methods to access the data in a type-safe way.
- Automatic Token Management: The package automatically manages authentication and wallet tokens, refreshing them when needed.
- Retry Mechanism: Failed requests due to token expiration or certain HTTP status codes are automatically retried.
- SSL Verification Control: Option to disable SSL verification for development or when working with self-signed certificates.
- Simplified API: The API is simplified to focus on the essential parameters, with tokens managed automatically.
- Enhanced Error Handling: Comprehensive error information with API response preservation and user-friendly error messages.
- Optional Logging: Built-in request/response logging for debugging purposes.
- Input Validation: Automatic validation of request parameters to prevent common errors.
Usage
You can use the Jawali facade or inject the Alsharie\Jawali\Services\JawaliService class.
use Alsharie\Jawali\Facades\Jawali;
use Alsharie\Jawali\Exceptions\JawaliApiException;
// Example: Login to System
try {
$loginResponse = Jawali::loginToSystem();
if ($loginResponse->isSuccess()) {
// Access token is automatically stored for future requests
echo "Login successful! Access token: " . $loginResponse->getAccessToken();
} else {
echo "Login failed!";
}
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
// Handle API error
// $e->getMessage(), $e->getApiStatus(), $e->getData()
logger()->error('Jawali Login Error: ' . $e->getMessage(), ['response' => $e->getData()]);
}
// Example: Wallet Authentication
// Optional header overrides if needed for a specific call
$headerOverrides = [
'signonDetail' => [
'orgID' => '22000001688', // Example, could be different
'userID' => 'school.branch.api.test',
'externalUser' => 'user1',
]
];
try {
$walletAuthResponse = Jawali::walletAuthentication($headerOverrides);
if ($walletAuthResponse->isSuccess()) {
// Wallet token is automatically stored for future requests
echo "Wallet authentication successful!";
} else {
echo "Wallet authentication failed!";
}
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
logger()->error('Jawali Wallet Auth Error: ' . $e->getMessage(), ['response' => $e->getData()]);
}
// Example: Ecommerce Inquiry
// Note: No need to pass tokens - they are managed automatically
try {
$voucher = '3360714';
$receiverMobile = '711029220';
$purpose = 'test bill payment';
$inquiryResponse = Jawali::ecommerceInquiry($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose, $headerOverrides);
if ($inquiryResponse->isSuccess()) {
echo "Inquiry successful!";
echo "Amount: " . $inquiryResponse->getAmount();
echo "Currency: " . $inquiryResponse->getCurrency();
echo "State: " . $inquiryResponse->getState();
echo "Transaction Reference: " . $inquiryResponse->getTransactionRef();
// Check if the transaction is in PENDING state
if ($inquiryResponse->getState() === 'PENDING') {
// Proceed with cashout
}
} else {
echo "Inquiry failed!";
}
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
logger()->error('Jawali Inquiry Error: ' . $e->getMessage(), ['response' => $e->getData()]);
}
// Example: Ecommerce Cashout
try {
$voucher = '2383314';
$receiverMobile = '711029220';
$purpose = 'test bill payment';
$cashoutResponse = Jawali::ecommerceCashout($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose, $headerOverrides);
if ($cashoutResponse->isSuccess()) {
echo "Cashout successful!";
echo "Amount: " . $cashoutResponse->getAmount();
echo "Currency: " . $cashoutResponse->getCurrency();
echo "Transaction Reference: " . $cashoutResponse->getTransactionRef();
} else {
echo "Cashout failed!";
}
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
logger()->error('Jawali Cashout Error: ' . $e->getMessage(), ['response' => $e->getData()]);
}
// Complete End-to-End Example
// This example shows how to perform an inquiry and then a cashout if the conditions are met
function processPayment($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose, $expectedAmount, $expectedCurrency)
{
try {
// Step 1: Perform an ecommerce inquiry
$inquiryResponse = Jawali::ecommerceInquiry($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose);
if ($inquiryResponse->isSuccess()) {
// Step 2: Check if the state is "PENDING" and the amount and currency are correct
if ($inquiryResponse->getState() === 'PENDING') {
if ($inquiryResponse->getAmount() == $expectedAmount &&
$inquiryResponse->getCurrency() === $expectedCurrency) {
// Step 3: Perform cashout
$cashoutResponse = Jawali::ecommerceCashout($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose);
if ($cashoutResponse->isSuccess()) {
return [
'message' => 'Payment processed successfully',
'success' => true,
'data' => $cashoutResponse->getData(),
];
} else {
return [
'message' => 'Error during cashout',
'success' => false,
'data' => $cashoutResponse->getData(),
];
}
} else {
return [
'message' => 'Amount or currency mismatch',
'success' => false,
'expected' => [
'amount' => $expectedAmount,
'currency' => $expectedCurrency,
],
'actual' => [
'amount' => $inquiryResponse->getAmount(),
'currency' => $inquiryResponse->getCurrency(),
],
];
}
} else {
return [
'message' => 'Transaction is not in PENDING state',
'success' => false,
'state' => $inquiryResponse->getState(),
];
}
} else {
return [
'message' => 'Inquiry failed',
'success' => false,
'error' => $inquiryResponse->getErrorMessage(),
];
}
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
return [
'message' => 'API Exception',
'success' => false,
'error' => $e->getMessage(),
'status' => $e->getApiStatus(),
];
} catch (\Exception $e) {
return [
'message' => 'General Exception',
'success' => false,
'error' => $e->getMessage(),
];
}
}
Enhanced Error Handling
The package now provides comprehensive error handling with detailed API response information and standardized method names that match successful responses:
use Alsharie\Jawali\Facades\Jawali;
use Alsharie\Jawali\Exceptions\JawaliApiException;
try {
$inquiryResponse = Jawali::ecommerceInquiry($voucher, $receiverMobile, $purpose);
// Handle successful response
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
// Get detailed error information
$errorDetails = $e->getApiErrorDetails();
// Access specific error information
$statusCode = $e->getApiStatus();
$apiResponse = $e->getData();
$userFriendlyMessage = $e->getUserFriendlyMessage();
// Check error type
if ($e->isTokenError()) {
// Handle token-related errors
logger()->warning('Token error occurred', $errorDetails);
} elseif ($e->isRetryable()) {
// Handle retryable errors
logger()->info('Retryable error occurred', $errorDetails);
}
// Log the error with context
logger()->error('Jawali API Error', [
'error_details' => $errorDetails,
'voucher' => $voucher,
'mobile' => $receiverMobile,
]);
}
Standardized Method Names
Both successful responses and exceptions now use the same method names for consistency:
| Purpose | Method Name | Available On | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Get raw data | getData() |
✅ Success & Exception | Returns the complete response data array |
| Get response body | getResponseBody($attribute?) |
✅ Success & Exception | Gets response body or specific attribute |
| Get response value | getResponse($attribute?) |
✅ Success & Exception | Gets response data or specific attribute |
| Get error message | getErrorMessage() |
✅ Success & Exception | Gets API error message if available |
| Check success | isSuccess() |
✅ Success only | Not applicable for exceptions |
Example - Same methods work for both success and error:
try {
$response = Jawali::ecommerceInquiry($voucher, $mobile);
// Success case
$data = $response->getData();
$amount = $response->getResponseBody('amount');
$error = $response->getErrorMessage(); // null if successful
} catch (JawaliApiException $e) {
// Error case - SAME method names!
$data = $e->getData();
$errorDetail = $e->getResponseBody('error');
$error = $e->getErrorMessage();
}
Breaking Change: Old method names (getApiResponse(), getApiResponseBody(), getApiResponseHeaders()) have been removed. Use the standardized method names instead.
Debugging and Logging
Enable logging to debug API requests and responses:
// In your .env file
JAWALI_LOGGING_ENABLED=true
The package automatically logs:
- API requests (with sensitive data redacted)
- API responses
- Error details and context
- Token refresh attempts
Explanation
-
loginToSystem()
This method authenticates with the Jawali system using the credentials from your configuration. The response is an instance ofJawaliLoginResponsewhich provides access to the authentication token. -
walletAuthentication()
After system login, this method authenticates your wallet. The response is an instance ofJawaliWalletAuthResponsewhich provides access to the wallet token. -
ecommerceInquiry()
This method contacts the gateway to verify payment details. The response is an instance ofJawaliEcommerceInquiryResponsewhich provides methods likegetAmount(),getCurrency(), andgetState(). -
ecommerceCashout()
When the inquiry indicates a pending state with the correct amount and currency, this method is called to complete the cash-out. Its response is wrapped in theJawaliEcommerceCashoutResponseclass. -
Response Handling
All response classes extend the baseJawaliResponseclass (exceptJawaliLoginResponse). They provide methods likeisSuccess(),getErrorMessage(), andgetData()for consistent response handling.
