BitPay Kiosk Demo - PHP / Laravel

This is a demonstration Laravel app to show how BitPay can be used in the context of a retail kiosk. It utilizes the the pos facade and with a simple configuration file you can customize the posData fields that are sent to BitPay. This app uses Eloquent to manage the database schema and by default uses an embedded H2 database to make it easy to start. Feel free to use other RDBMS like MySQL.

Functionality

• Create invoices
• View a grid of invoices (/invoices)
• View invoice details (/invoices/:invoiceId)
• Store invoices in a database
• Receives instant payment notifications (IPN) to update the database
• Uses EventSource to update the frontend upon receiving IPN

Prerequisites

• BitPay Account
• PHP 8.1

Configuration

Environment Variables

This app can use either a .env file or global environment variables. If you would like to use a .env file, you will need to copy .env.example to .env and update the values.

By default, this application uses SQLite for demonstration purposes, so you will need to set an absolute path for DB_DATABASE in your environment.

Note that these are standard Laravel environment variables and may not apply to all systems. See the Laravel documentation for more information.

YAML Configuration

This app uses a YAML configuration file. To configure it, copy application-example.yaml to the application.yaml and override specific YAML values.
