Setup MTN account

To set up access within Moodle you will need to: * Register a new application (MTN Africa have their own docs on this.) * Enable the Collections service so you can do remote collection of bills, fees or taxes. * Create a new application where you can configure the callback url. The URL is in the format "https://example.com/payment/gateway/mtnafrica/callback.php". * Visit Go live, enable the countries you want to work in, add KYC information, and you can use the plugin live. * Make a phone call to your local MTN representative so your submitted resquest is accepted, yes, somebody at MTN Africa needs to turn a switch before your changes take effect. * For every change, callback url, enable extra APIs, ... see previous line.

Theme support

This plugin is developed and tested on Moodle Core's Boost theme and Boost child themes, including Moodle Core's Classic theme.

Database support

This plugin is developed and tested using

• MYSQL
• MariaDB
• PostgreSQL

Testing

The easiest way to test this plugin is to configure your sandbox environment with the keys provided from MTN. When you create a course and add a enrolment on fee with the cost of 40 EUR (the sandbox only accepts EURO). Next create a user with '46733123454' as telephone number and log in as this user. When asked for a payment, you will be able to see the payment process completely, and after some waiting be automatically enrolled in the course.

This plugin can also be tested in PHPUnit and Behat, but you need to add your login - secret - secret1 keys as an environment variable.

* env login=???? secret=???? secret1=???? vendor/bin/phpunit --coverage-text payment/gateway/airtelafrica/
* env login=???? secret=???? secret1=???? vendor/bin/behat --tags='paygw_airtelafrica'

Or you can use secrets in Github actions:

* gh secret set login -b"?????"
* gh secret set secret -b"?????"
* gh secret set secret1 -b"?????"
