Cryptocoin Payable

Forked from Bitcoin Payable

A rails gem that enables any model to have crypto coin payments. The polymorphic table coin_payments creates payments with unique addresses based on a BIP32 deterministic seed using https://github.com/wink/money-tree and uses external APIs to check for payments:

Payments have 5 states: pending, partial_payment, paid_in_full, comped, confirmed

No private keys needed, No bitcoind blockchain indexing on new servers, just address and payments.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cryptocoin_payable', git: 'https://github.com/Sailias/cryptocoin_payable', branch: 'master'

And then execute:

$ bundle

$ rails g cryptocoin_payable:install

$ bundle exec rake db:migrate

$ populate coin_payable.rb (see below)

$ bundle exec rake cryptocoin_payable:process_prices (see below)

Uninstall

$ rails d coin_payable:install

Run Tests

gem install cucumber
cucumber features

Usage

Configuration

config/initializers/coin_payable.rb

CryptocoinPayable.configure do |config|
  config.currency = :usd
  config.testnet = true

  config.configure_btc do |btc_config|
    btc_config.node_path = 'm/0/'
    btc_config.master_public_key = 'tpub...'

    # Defaults to 3 confirmations.
    # btc_config.confirmations = 3
  end

  config.configure_eth do |eth_config|
    # Will default to 4 if `config.testnet` is true, otherwise 1 but can be
    # overriden.
    #
    # 1: Frontier, Homestead, Metropolis, the Ethereum public main network
    # 4: Rinkeby, the public Geth Ethereum testnet
    # See https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/a/17101/26695
    # eth_config.chain_id = 1

    # Defaults to 12 confirmations.
    # eth_config.confirmations = 12

    eth_config.master_public_key = 'tpub...'
  end
end

In order to use the bitcoin network and issue real addresses, CryptocoinPayable.config.testnet must be set to false

CryptocoinPayable.config.testnet = false

Node Path (Bitcoin)

The derivation path for the node that will be creating your addresses. Currently, this is only configurable for bitcoin payments (see btc_config.node_path above).

Master Public Key (Bitcoin)

A BIP32 MPK in "Extended Key" format used when configuring bitcoin payments (see btc_config.master_public_key above).

Public net starts with: xpub Testnet starts with: tpub

Obtain your BIP32 MPK from http://bip32.org/

Adding it to your model

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_coin_payments
end

Creating a payment from your application

def create_payment(amount_in_cents)
  self.coin_payments.create!(reason: 'sale', price: amount_in_cents, coin_type: :btc)
end

Update payments with the current price of BTC based on your currency

CryptocoinPayable also supports local currency conversions and BTC exchange rates.

The process_prices rake task connects to api.bitcoinaverage.com to get the 24 hour weighted average of BTC for your specified currency. It then updates all payments that havent received an update in the last 30 minutes with the new value owing in BTC. This honors the price of a payment for 30 minutes at a time.

rake cryptocoin_payable:process_prices

Processing payments

All payments are calculated against the dollar amount of the payment. So a bitcoin_payment for $49.99 will have it's value calculated in BTC. It will stay at that price for 30 minutes. When a payment is made, a transaction is created that stores the BTC in satoshis paid and the exchange rate is was paid at. This is very valuable for accounting later. (capital gains of all payments received)

If a partial payment is made, the BTC value is recalculated for the remaining dollar amount with the latest exchange rate. This means that if someone pays 0.01 for a 0.5 payment, that 0.01 is converted into dollars at the time of processing and the remaining amount is calculated in dollars and the remaining amount in BTC is issued. (If BTC bombs, that value could be greater than 0.5 now)

This prevents people from gaming the payments by paying very little BTC in hopes the price will rise. Payments are not recalculated based on the current value of BTC, but in dollars.

To run the payment processor:

rake cryptocoin_payable:process_payments

Notify your application when a payment is made

Use the coin_payment_paid and coin_payment_confirmed methods

def Product < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_coin_payments

  def create_payment(amount_in_cents)
    self.coin_payments.create!(reason: 'sale', price: amount_in_cents, type: :btc)
  end

  # Runs when the payment is first detected on the network.
  def coin_payment_paid(payment)
    self.notify!
  end

  # Runs when enough confirmations have occurred.
  def coin_payment_confirmed(payment)
    self.ship!
  end
end

Delete old CurrencyConversion data

Every time the payment processor is run, several rows are inserted into the database to record the value of the coin at a given instance in time. Over time, your application will accumulate historical currency conversion data and you may want to clear it out:

rake cryptocoin_payable:delete_currency_conversions

By default, it will delete any data older than 1 month. You can configure this using an env variable:

DELETE_BEFORE=2017-12-15 rake cryptocoin_payable:delete_currency_conversions

Comp a payment

This will bypass the payment, set the state to comped and call back to your app that the payment has been processed.

@coin_payment.comp

View all the transactions in the payment

coin_payment = @product.coin_payments.first
coin_payment.transactions.each do |transaction|
  puts transaction.block_hash
  puts transaction.block_time

  puts transaction.transaction_hash

  puts transaction.estimated_value
  puts transaction.estimated_time

  puts transaction.coin_conversion

  puts transaction.confirmations
end
