Django: Any app recommendations for PayPal Adaptive Payments?

Question

Like the title says, I'm looking for an app which helps me integrate the PayPay Adaptive Payments API with a Django website.

So far I've checked out

• django-paypal (https://github.com/dcramer/django-paypal, might work with some modifications)
• django-paypal-adaptive (https://github.com/gmcguire/django-paypal-adaptive)

Unfortunately both seem to be buggy/not anymore maintained, any suggestions for alternatives? How did you integrate it, custom solution or take one of these apps and update/modify them?

Answer 1

I have worked on a couple of ecommerce and paypal adaptive payment type projects.

And our usual approach is to use https://github.com/dcramer/django-paypal and customize it as needed.

If you are looking at a full fledge ecommerce sites, give satchless and django oscar a spin.

• http://oscarcommerce.com

I have also gone through the process of looking for good libraries but this is pretty much it. And I think they are good enough as a start point to build your custom work on.
