Android M-Pesa Daraja SDK CircleCI Download

This is a simple Android M-PESA SDK to allow you to integrate Safaricom M-PESA API dubbed Daraja in your Android App with ease without knowing a thing. It’s easy. I promise. 🚀

This version only offers the MPESA Express (STKPush) Support.

I will be having Kotlin support soon also, as well as examples!

Getting Started

These instructions will help you set up this library easily on your current project and working in no time. You only need a few configurations to start working!

Setting Up

To be able to use the following library, you will need to add the following gradle dependency in your build.gradle(module:app) file

dependencies {
  implementation 'com.androidstudy:daraja:1.0.0'
}

That is the basic set up needed to be able to use the library in your applications!

Daraja requires minSdkVersion Level 14 (Min Supported by Android Studio)

Permissions

If you are using this Library,don't forget the following permission:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

That's it, you have the required permissions and ready to go!

How do I use Daraja?

Simple use cases with MPESA Express (STKPush) will look something like this:

//For Sandbox Mode
Daraja daraja = Daraja.with(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, new DarajaListener<AccessToken>() {
            @Override
            public void onResult(@NonNull AccessToken accessToken) {
                Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), accessToken.getAccess_token());
            }

            @Override
            public void onError(String error) {
                Log.e(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), error);
            }
        });

//For Production Mode
Daraja daraja = Daraja.with(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, Env.PRODUCTION, new DarajaListener<AccessToken>() {
            @Override
            public void onResult(@NonNull AccessToken accessToken) {
                Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), accessToken.getAccess_token());
            }

            @Override
            public void onError(String error) {
                Log.e(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), error);
            }
        });

Notice the Env.SANDBOX is OPTIONAL. Daraja uses SANDBOX as the Default Mode. To switch to Production Mode, pass the Env.PRODUCTION and let Daraja do the rest!

This initializes Daraja and also generates a Token to be used for further requests. This should be done in your Application onCreate Method, to allow Daraja generate the Authorization Token as early as possible.

With the Token generated, create a LNMExpress Object, to be able to pass it to the sendSTKPush method as shown below. Replace with actual values.

LNMExpress lnmExpress = new LNMExpress(
                "BUSINESS_SHORT_CODE",
                "PASS_KEY",
                "AMOUNT",
                "PARTY_A",
                "PARTY_B",
                "PHONE_NUMBER",
                "CALLBACK_URL",
                "ACCOUNT_REFERENCE",
                "TRANSACTION_DESCRIPTION"
        );

You can now request an STKPush with ease.Just call the sendSTKPush as shown here:

//For both Sandbox and Production Mode
button.setOnClickListener(v -> daraja.sendSTKPush(lnmExpress,
                new DarajaListener<LNMResult>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onResult(@NonNull LNMResult lnmResult) {
                        Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), lnmResult.ResponseDescription);
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onError(String error) {
                        Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), error);
                    }
                }
        ));

This sanitizes all the data, as required by Safaricom before making a request for the STKPush. You only need to pass the parameters and Daraja will do the rest!

Daraja Example

Make a simple Daraja request as shown in the code sample below. First, make sure your import these dependencies (or let Android Studio auto-import), and initialize a few configurations

import Daraja;
import DarajaListener;
import AccessToken;
import LNMExpress;
import LNMResult;

import butterknife.BindView;
import butterknife.ButterKnife;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @BindView(R.id.editTextPhoneNumber)
    EditText editTextPhoneNumber;
    @BindView(R.id.sendButton)
    Button sendButton;

    //Declare Daraja :: Global Variable
    Daraja daraja;

    String phoneNumber;

Inside your onCreate Method, set up Initialize Daraja as shown below:

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        ButterKnife.bind(this);

        //Init Daraja
        //TODO :: REPLACE WITH YOUR OWN CREDENTIALS  :: THIS IS SANDBOX DEMO
        daraja = Daraja.with("EG6TJgOCyuVGHKUeJs0uLXKsLCANRjbo", "4F3tAlRZ4OzNZt0Y", new DarajaListener<AccessToken>() {
            @Override
            public void onResult(@NonNull AccessToken accessToken) {
                Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), accessToken.getAccess_token());
                Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "TOKEN : " + accessToken.getAccess_token(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }

            @Override
            public void onError(String error) {
                Log.e(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), error);
            }
        });

Make the Daraja STKPush request with ease now:

//TODO :: THIS IS A SIMPLE WAY TO DO ALL THINGS AT ONCE!!! DON'T DO THIS :)
        sendButton.setOnClickListener(v -> {

            //Get Phone Number from User Input
            phoneNumber = editTextPhoneNumber.getText().toString().trim();

            if (TextUtils.isEmpty(phoneNumber)) {
                editTextPhoneNumber.setError("Please Provide a Phone Number");
                return;
            }

            //TODO :: REPLACE WITH YOUR OWN CREDENTIALS  :: THIS IS SANDBOX DEMO
            LNMExpress lnmExpress = new LNMExpress(
                    "174379",
                    "bfb279f9aa9bdbcf158e97dd71a467cd2e0c893059b10f78e6b72ada1ed2c919",  //https://developer.safaricom.co.ke/test_credentials
                    "100",
                    "254708374149",
                    "174379",
                    phoneNumber,
                    "http://mycallbackurl.com/checkout.php",
                    "001ABC",
                    "Goods Payment"
            );

            daraja.requestMPESAExpress(lnmExpress,
                    new DarajaListener<LNMResult>() {
                        @Override
                        public void onResult(@NonNull LNMResult lnmResult) {
                            Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), lnmResult.ResponseDescription);
                        }

                        @Override
                        public void onError(String error) {
                            Log.i(MainActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName(), error);
                        }
                    }
            );
        });

The whole process looks similar to these screenshots:
