Cashfree Payments Integration

SDK Configuration

In shop/views.py, configure the Cashfree SDK with your Client ID and Secret key:

from cashfree_pg.api_client import Cashfree

Cashfree.XClientId = 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID'
Cashfree.XClientSecret = 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET'
Cashfree.XEnvironment = Cashfree.SANDBOX  # Use `Cashfree.PRODUCTION` for production

Creating an Order

The order creation process is handled in the create_order view. This view calculates the total amount from the cart, creates an order using the Cashfree SDK, and returns the payment session ID.

Opening the Checkout Page

The payment session ID is used to open the Cashfree checkout page. This is done in the cart_page.html template using the Cashfree JavaScript SDK.
