Making Payments using Square SDK Swift 3 - ios

Question

As I'm trying to make payments using Square SDK from Github (https://github.com/square/SquareRegisterSDK-iOS) I'm not able to find the amount in Square POS App which i have passed from my App.
Please find the below steps which i have actually followed.
I have downloaded Square Register SDK from below git hub link.
https://github.com/square/SquareRegisterSDK-iOS
I Ran the application using cocoa pods and i have successfully installed the pod file in my project.
I have created a test App in my Client login in My Apps Section .
App Name : MyApp
App Id: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX (My Application Id From Square Dashboard)
I have Registered My Bundle Id And Callback Url in Register Api Section
iOS App Bundle IDs: My Bundle Id
iOS App URL Schemes: my Call Back Url
As my account is Activated for Receiving payments through applications.
Now coming back to my code, i just took Square Register SDK ----> SwiftCharge class methods as it is.
Please find the below code what i have used for charge and please do let me know any corrections to be done from my end.
import SquareRegisterSDK
import UIKit
let yourClientID = "xxxxxxxxxx"
let yourCallbackURL = URL(string: "MyApp://callback")!
enum Section: Int {
case amount = 0, supportedTenderTypes, optionalFields, settings
init?(at indexPath: IndexPath) {
self.init(rawValue: indexPath.section)
}
}
let allTenderTypes: [SCCAPIRequestTenderTypes] = [.card, .cash, .other, .squareGiftCard, .cardOnFile]
extension String {
var nilIfEmpty: String? {
return isEmpty ? nil : self
}
}
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var supportedTenderTypes: SCCAPIRequestTenderTypes = .card
var clearsDefaultFees = false
var returnAutomaticallyAfterPayment = true
#IBOutlet weak var currencyField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var amountField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var notesField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var userInfoStringField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var merchantIDField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var customerIDField: UITextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
// Always set the client ID before creating your first API request.
SCCAPIRequest.setClientID(yourClientID)
}
#IBAction func charge(sender: AnyObject) {
let currencyCodeString = "USD"
let amountString = "500"
let amount: SCCMoney
guard let amountCents = Int(amountString) else {
showErrorMessage(title: "Invalid Amount", message: "\(amountString) is not a valid amount.")
return
}
do {
amount = try SCCMoney(amountCents: amountCents, currencyCode: currencyCodeString)
} catch let error as NSError {
showErrorMessage(title: "Invalid Amount", error: error)
return
}
let userInfoString = "Radhachandan"
let merchantID = ""
let customerID = ""
let notes = "Sample Test"
let request: SCCAPIRequest
do {
request = try SCCAPIRequest(callbackURL: yourCallbackURL,
amount: amount,
userInfoString: userInfoString,
merchantID: merchantID,
notes: notes,
customerID: customerID,
supportedTenderTypes: supportedTenderTypes,
clearsDefaultFees: clearsDefaultFees,
returnAutomaticallyAfterPayment: returnAutomaticallyAfterPayment)
} catch let error as NSError {
showErrorMessage(title: "Invalid Amount", error: error)
return
}
do {
try SCCAPIConnection.perform(request)
} catch let error as NSError {
showErrorMessage(title: "Cannot Perform Request", error: error)
return
}
}
private func showErrorMessage(title: String, error: NSError) {
showErrorMessage(title: title, message: error.localizedDescription)
}
private func showErrorMessage(title: String, message: String) {
let alertView = UIAlertController(title: title, message: message, preferredStyle: .alert)
alertView.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: .default, handler: nil))
present(alertView, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
As of now It was redirect to Square Point Of Sale app, but its not displaying the amount what i have passed.
Your kind feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Try modifying your code like this:
...
let userInfoString = "Radhachandan"
let merchantID = nil
let customerID = nil
let notes = "Sample Test"
...
You have alerted us of a bug when passing empty strings for these parameters, we will be working on the fix soon.
