A Node.js module for In-App-Purchase validation for iOS, Android, Amazon, and Windows.
It can also validate multiple app's receipt with a single back-end using .validateOnce()
that allows you to change secret
or public key
dynamically.
0.12.0 >=
You no longer need to pass iap.APPLE
, iap.GOOGLE
, iap.AMAZON
, or iap.WINDIWS
.
The module automatically detects the service without you telling it!
For more details: HERE
The module can optionally turn on verbose debug log.
In order to enable the verbose logging, give the following to .config()
BEFORE calling .setup([callback])
:
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
iap.config({
verbose: true
});
For Apple and Google, the module can run in test mode so that it skipps production validation.
To enable test mode, set the following value to your configurations:
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
iap.config({
test: true
});
Validates an in-app-purchase receipt.
NOTE 1:
constant for iOS: iap.APPLE
constant for Android: iap.GOOGLE
constant for Windows: iap.WINDOWS
constant for Amazon: iap.AMAZON
As of version 1.4.0, we now have built-in auto-service detection in .validate(receipt, callback)
and .validateOnce(receipt, secretPubKey, callback)
.
For more detail please read here
-
For Apple validation, receipt is a base64 encoded string.
-
For Google validation, receipt is an object
{ data: "stringified purchase data", signature: "yyyy" }
. -
For Windows validation, receipt is a signed XML string.
-
For Amazon validation, receipt is an object
{ userId: "xxx", receiptId: "yyyy" }
.receiptId
is a ``purchaseToken sent from Amazon app store server.
NOTE 2:
Validation error will have a response object as { status: <status code>, message: <message string> }
.
NOTE 3:
For Google Play validation, the data
must be a string, but if you pass it as an object, the module can automatically correct the data format and validate it still.
NOTE 4:
For Apple purchase, if in_app
in the validated receipt is empty, the module considers invalid since the receipt indicates that the user purchased nothing:
Related reads:
.validateOnce(service [constant], secretOrPubKey [string], receipt [string or object], callback [function]);
Validates an in-app-purchase receipt with a dynamically fed secret or public key.
This is usefuly when you need to validate multiple apps' receipts with a single back-end.
in-app-purchase
module now supports auto-service detection as of version 1.4.0.
Here is how it works:
Instead of passing iap.APPLE
, iap.GOOGLE
, iap.AMAZON
, or iap.WINDOWS
to iap.validate()
and iap.validateOnce()
, you may write:
.validate(receipt, function (...) {
// do something
});
.validateOnce(receipt, secretPublicKey, function (...) {
// do something
})
Returns a service name from the given receipt.
Returns a boolean.
Returns a parsed purchase data as an array.
For apple and windows, the returned array may contain more than 1 purchase data.
For Windows purchase data and Apple iTunes (recurring subscription only), each purchase data in the array contains expirationDate
.
For Google Play purchases (recurring subscription only), each purchase data in the array contains expirationDate
only if you provide google play store information.
For Android only!
Returns a callback function with error
and response
as arguments.
This method should be used when trying to query the Google Play Store API, but the access token is no longer valid.
{
ignoreExpired: <boolean>
}
ignoreExpired: If true
, the function will exclude expired items from the return array.
This is only for windows
and apple
iTunes (recurring subscription only).
NOTE: For Apple, if the item is NOT a recurring purchase, then expirationDate
is 0
.
The purchase data structure is:
{
bundleId: <string>, // Apple only
orderId: <string>, // Google only
transactionId: <string>,
productId: <string>,
purchaseDate: <number>,
quantity: <number>,
*expirationDate: <number> // iTunes, windows and amazon subscription only. Google subscriptions only with google play store api info
}
Example:
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
// error hmm
}
iap.validate(iap.APPLE, receipt, function (error, response) {
if (error) {
// error
}
if (iap.isValidated(response)) {
var purchaseDataList = iap.getPurchaseData(response);
/*
[
{
productId: xxx,
purchasedDate: yyy,
quantity: zzz
}
]
*/
}
});
});
Returns true
if a purchased item has been expired.
NOTE: This function is for windows
and apple
iTunes (recurring subscription only). This can also be used for google
subscriptions since you provide google play store api information.
Example For Checking Expiration Manually:
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
// handle error properly here
}
iap.validate(iap.APPLE, receipt, function (error, response) {
if (error) {
// oh no error...
}
if (iap.isValidated(response)) {
// now check if any of the items validated has been expired or not
var purchaseDataList = iap.getPurchaseData(response);
for (var i = 0, len = purchaseDataList.length; i < len; i++) {
if (iap.isExpired(purchaseDataList[i])) {
// this item has been expired...
}
}
}
});
});
Example For Ignoring Expired Items:
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
// handle error properly here
}
iap.validate(iap.APPLE, receipt, function (error, response) {
if (error) {
// oh no error...
}
if (iap.isValidated(response)) {
// get the purchased items that have not been expired ONLY
var options = {
ignoreExpired: true
};
var purchaseDataList = iap.getPurchaseData(response, options);
}
});
});
For iTunes subscription purchases, a shared password is required.
For GooglePlay, in-app-purchase
module needs to have the public key file(s).
The module requires the file(s) to be name in a certain way:
For sandbox, the file name should be: iap-sandbox
.
For production, the file name should be: iap-live
.
Google Play has only one public key for both production and sandbox, but the module gives you an option to separate the public keys for development and testing.
If you do not need to have different public keys, simply use the same public key in both files.
The module needs to call .config()
before it can execute .setup()
correctly.
Example:
var inAppPurchase = require('in-app-purchase');
inAppPurchase.config({
amazonAPIVersion: 2,
secret: "abcdefghijklmnoporstuvwxyz", // this comes from Amazon
applePassword: "1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef", // this comes from iTunes Connect
googlePublicKeyPath: "path/to/public/key/directory/" // this is the path to the directory containing iap-sanbox/iap-live files
});
You may add amazonAPIVersion: 2
to your configuration to enable Amazon API version 2.
The default is version 1.
The module utilises the Request module for the HTTP requests required to validate Apple and Windows IAP subscriptions. The default settings for requests can be configured by passing in the requestDefaults
configuration property. This allows you to configure proxies, tunnels and request timeouts. This object can contain any Request module options but may be overridden by request-specific options set by this module.
Example:
// set timeout to be 5 seconds
iap.config({
requestDefaults: {
timeout: 5000
}
});
For GooglePlay, in-app-purchase
module can read public key value from the environment variables instead of file(s).
The basics is the same as using file(s).
You will need to set the public key value, which is the same value as you would save as a file, to environment variables.
This would be the public key value for sandbox.
export=GOOGLE_IAB_PUBLICKEY_SANDBOX=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
.
This would be the public key value for live
export=GOOGLE_IAB_PUBLICKEY_LIVE=yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
.
NOTE: This works exactly the same as you were to use file(s) with one expection. You do NOT need to call .config()
for GooglePlay since it will be using environment variables instead.
The module also allows you to feed GooglePlay public key value as string. For example, you may store the key value in a database and read from it to use it etc.
Example:
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
iap.config({
googlePublicKeyStrSandbox: publicKeySandboxString,
googlePublicKeyStrLive: publicKeyLiveString
});
//... proceed with the rest of your code here
Example: Apple
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
iap.config({
applePassword: "1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef"
});
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
return console.error('something went wrong...');
}
// iap is ready
iap.validate(iap.APPLE, appleReceipt, function (err, appleRes) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
if (iap.isValidated(appRes)) {
// yay good!
}
});
});
Example: Google
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
/*
For google iap, you need to name your public key file as:
iap-sanbox or iap-live
*/
iap.config({
googlePublicKeyPath: "/path/to/google/public/key/dir/"
});
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
return console.error('something went wrong...');
}
/*
google receipt must be provided as an object
{
"data": "{stringified data object}",
"signature": "signature from google"
}
*/
// iap is ready
iap.validate(iap.GOOGLE, googleReceipt, function (err, googleRes) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
if (iap.isValidated(googleRes)) {
// yay good!
}
});
});
Example: Amazon
iap.config({
secret: 'shared secret from Amazon'
});
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
// oh no...
}
iap.validate(iap.AMAZON, amazonReceipt, function (err, response) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err);
}
if (iap.isValidated(response)) {
// goody validated
}
});
});
Example: Windows
var iap = require('in-app-purchase');
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (erorr) {
// oops
}
iap.validate(iap.WINDOWS, windowsReceipt, function (err, windowsRes) {
if (err) {
// failed to validate the purchase
}
if (iap.isValidated(windowsRes)) {
// yay good!
}
});
});
You can use Google Play Store API to check the state of a subscription (if the subscription is still valid, auto-renewal, etc). To do so, you need to setup iap module with Google Play Store API Information.
Example:
iap.config({
googlePublicKeyPath: "/path/to/google/public/key/dir/",
googleAccToken: "PLAY_STORE_API_ACCESS_TOKEN",
googleRefToken: "PLAY_STORE_API_REFRESH_TOKEN",
googleClientID: "PLAY_STORE_API_CLIENT_ID",
googleClientSecret: "PLAY_STORE_API_CLIENT_SECRET"
});
iap.setup(function (error) {
if (error) {
// error hmm
}
iap.validate(iap.GOOGLE, receipt, function (error, response) {
if (error) {
// error
}
if (iap.isValidated(response)) {
var purchaseDataList = iap.getPurchaseData(response);
/*
[
{
productId: xxx,
purchasedDate: yyy,
quantity: zzz
}
]
*/
}
});
});
NOTE: If one of the keys (googleAccToken
, googleRefToken
, googleClientID
or googleClientSecret
) is missing in the config()
function, iap module will only perform the validation of the receipt, and won't do any check using Google Play Store API.
To set up your server-side Android in-app-billing correctly, you must provide the public key string as a file from your Developer Console account.
Reference: Implementing In-app Billing
Once you copy the public key string from the Developer Console account for your application, you simply need to copy and paste it to a file and name it iap-live
as shown in the example above.
NOTE: The public key string you copy from the Developer Console account is actually a base64 string. You do NOT have to convert this to anything yourself. The module converts it to the public key automatically for you.
To check expiration date or auto renewal status of an Android subscription, you should first setup the access to the Google Play Store API. You should follow these steps:
- Go to https://play.google.com/apps/publish/
- Click on
Settings
- Click on
API Access
- There should be a linked project already, if not, create one. If you have it, click it.
- You should now be at: https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library?project=xxxx
- Under Mobile API's, make sure "Google Play Developer API is enabled".
- Go back, on the left click on
Credentials
- Click
Create Credentials
button - Choose
OAuth Client ID
- Choose
Web Application
- Give it a name, skip the
Authorized JS origins
- Aadd this to
Authorized Redirect URIs
: https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground - Hit Save and copy the clientID and clientSecret somewhere safe.
- Go to: https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground
- On the right, hit the gear/settings.
- Check the box:
Use your own OAuth credentials
- Enter in clientID and clientSecret
- Close
- On the left, find "Google Play Developer API v2"
- Hit Authorize Api's button
- Save
Authorization Code
- This is your: googleAccToken
- Hit
Exchange Authorization code for token
- Grab:
Refresh Token
- This is your: googleRefToken
Now you are able to query for Android subscription status!

in-app-purchase
module provides unit tests. In order the make use of the unit tests, you must provide receipts for iOS/Android in files.
To test the module you may execute the following commands in the root directory of the module:
make test-apple path=/path/to/your/apple/receipt/file
In order to test google's in-app-billing, you must provide the public key file in addition to your google receipt file.
NOTE: the receipt file for google must contain javascript object format something similar to:
{"data":"google sent data","signature":"signature string"}
make test-google path=/path/to/your/google/receipt/file pk=/path/you/the/directory/of/your/google/public/key/
In order to test windows' in-app-purchase, you must provide the signed receipt XML as a file.
make test-windows path=/path/to/your/windows/receipt/xml
