This Package is just an implementaion of the IPN class of this Repository
https://github.com/Quixotix/PHP-PayPal-IPN
add this to your "require-dev" in composer.json
"fahim/laravel5-paypal-ipn": "1.0.*"
A PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) class for PHP 5.
Use the PaypalIPNListener class in your PHP IPN script to handle the encoding
of POST data, post back to PayPal, and parsing of the response from PayPal.
Service for Laravel
'Fahim\PaypalIPN\PaypalIPNServiceProvider',
	
Use case
use Fahim\PaypalIPN\PaypalIPNListener;
public function paypalIpn()
{
    $ipn = new PaypalIPNListener();
    $ipn->use_sandbox = true;
    $verified = $ipn->processIpn();
    $report = $ipn->getTextReport();
    Log::info("-----new payment-----");
    Log::info($report);
    if ($verified) {
        if ($_POST['address_status'] == 'confirmed') {
            // Check outh POST variable and insert your logic here
            Log::info("payment verified and inserted to db");
        }
    } else {
        Log::info("Some thing went wrong in the payment !");
    }
}
use_sandbox property.use_ssl
property (SSL is recommended).use_curl
property (cURL is recommended).getTextReport()
method for use in emails and logs to administrators.This code is intended for web developers. You should understand how the IPN process works conceptually and you should understand when and why you would be using IPN. Reading the PayPal Instant Payment Notification Guide is a good place to start.
You should also have a PayPal Sandbox Account with a test buyer account and a test seller account. When logged into your sandbox account there is an IPN simulator under the 'Test Tools' menu which you can used to test your IPN listener.
Once you have your sandbox account setup, you simply create a PHP script that
will be your IPN listener. In that script, use the IpnListener() class as shown
below. For a more thoroughly documented example, take a look at the
example/ipn.php script in the source code.
Documentation has not been generated yet, but, there are phpDocumentor style
docstrings (comments) throughout ipnlistener.php which explain the important
public properties and methods.
I have also written a more in-depth IPN tutorial on my blog: PayPal IPN with PHP
Problem
The processIpn() method throws the following exception:
cURL error: [52] GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
Solution
When cURL is compiled with GnuTLS the call to PayPal will fail if the SSL version
is not explicitly set as a cURL option. Set the force_ssl_v3 property to force
SSL 3:
$listener = new IpnListener();
$listener->force_ssl_v3 = true;
Note: force_ssl_v3 is now true by default
Problem
 PHP Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION 
 cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in ...
Solution
If you need PHP safe mode, you can disable CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION using the
follow_location property.
$listener = new IpnListener();
$listener->follow_location = false;
Note: follow_location is now false enabled by default
Here is an example of a report returned by the getTextReport() method. Create
your own reports by extending the IpnListener() class or by accessing the data
directly in your ipn script.
