I am just completing a payment gateway using protx and want to gauge interest before posting

I am just completing a payment gateway extension for Protx and wondered if it would be of interest to the community. It is rather complex and uses workflows to do it's thing but I wanted to gauge interest before posting it as I would need to write the documentation and generally clean up the code for general release.

If there is sufficient interested then I will do the cleanup work and post it into the contributions section.

Protx is a payment gateway that does not charge as much as worldpay but does require the user to have a merchant account. They charge £20 a month or 10p per transaction (with you own merchant account charges on top)

To read more look at http://www.protx.com

Fats,

We would all be interested the more payment gateways the better.
Can you post it to contributions http://ez.no/community/contributions/workflow. You can then store the code in the public svn respository at http://pubsvn.ez.no/community/trunk/extension/ if you wish.

Thanks for sharing

Plus good examples of complex workflows would be of a major benefit to the community. I would really appreciate your insight.

Tony.

I was intending putting into the contributions area as it can then be expanded more quickly as well as allow more flexible bug fixing and all that malarkey.

I currently use Subversion so integrating my own work into the community is pretty seamless.

Sorry it took so long but I have posted the Protx extension. It took me while to test it and clean up the code. too many pressures every day. So I took out some time tonight to get it published.

Let me know what you think.

Hi,

Is this extension already in production for on one of your website ?

I didn't know Protx, sounds interesting... but I quite don't understand where to get the merchant account. I'm digging so I can give it a try.

Yes it on several sites, it's been running for quite a few months now.

The Merchant account is acquired through most banks.

You can setup a test account on Protx https://www.protx.com/apply/ I had a test account without a merchant account while I was writing the extension.

I think Protx has changed quite significantly since this was released as has eZ P.

I am starting to develop a new version of this extension if no one else has already done the work aimed at eZ P 4.

I may be biting off more than I can chew - can anyone advise me how far off the old version is against the new standards?

At this point I don't even know if the eZP 4 database has the fields I require in it yet! I'd be very interested in any feedback/hints.

Thanks
