Unit tests and code style

Building a release package

If you want to build a release package (that can be used for deploying a new version on wordpress.org or manual installation on a WP website via ZIP uploading), follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository and cd into it.
2. Make sure you have the version in the plugin root file updated.
3. Update the PayPal JavaScript SDK integration date by using the current date for the PAYPAL_INTEGRATION_DATE constant.
4. The following command should get you a ZIP file ready to be used on a WordPress site:

$ yarn run build

or if using the DDEV setup:

$ yarn run ddev:build-package

Setup

You can install WooCommerce PayPal Payments locally using the dev environment of your preference, or you can use the DDEV setup provided in this repository which includes WP, WC and all developments tools.

To set up the DDEV environment, follow these steps:

0. Install Docker and DDEV.
1. Edit the configuration in the .ddev/config.yml file if needed.
2. $ ddev start
3. $ ddev orchestrate to install WP/WC.
4. Open https://wc-pp.ddev.site

Use $ ddev orchestrate -f for reinstalattion (will destroy all site data). You may also need $ ddev restart to apply the config changes.

Running tests and other tasks in the DDEV environment

Tests and code style:

• $ yarn ddev:test
• $ yarn ddev:lint
• $ yarn ddev:fix-lint
• $ yarn ddev:lint-js

See package.json for other useful commands.

For debugging, see the DDEV docs. Enable xdebug via $ ddev xdebug, and press Start Listening for PHP Debug Connections in PHPStorm. After creating the server in the PHPStorm dialog, you need to set the local project path for the server plugin path. It should look like this.

See tests/playwright for e2e (browser-based) tests.

Test account setup

You will need a PayPal sandbox merchant and customer accounts to configure the plugin and make test purchases with it.

For setting up test accounts follow these instructions.

Webhooks

For testing webhooks locally, follow these steps to set up ngrok:

0. Install ngrok.

• If using DDEV, run our wrapper Bash script which will start ddev share and replace the URLs in the WP database:

  $ .ddev/bin/share
  

• For other environments, run

  $ ngrok http -host-header=rewrite wc-pp.myhost
  

  and in your environment variables (accessible to the web server) add NGROK_HOST with the host that you got from ngrok, like abcd1234.ngrok.io. ngrok will be used only for the webhook listening URL. The URLs displayed on the WordPress pages, used in redirects, etc. will still remain local.

2. Complete onboarding or resubscribe webhooks on the Webhooks Status page.
