Payment SDKiOSUsing the SDK

Printing

Printing configuration

Our SDK exposes APIs to print receipts after a payment. If printing capabilities are required for your use case, ensure you set up printer configuration after SDK initialisation or before making a payment.

Use the PrinterConfig class to pass in desired functionality for printing.

Supported PrinterProvider values

Here is a list of supported print providers:

PrinterProviderValueBehaviour
None (default)PrinterProvider.noneNo print button shown.
SDKPrinterProvider.sdkPrint button shown if integrated printer available.
ExternalPrinterProvider.externalPrint button shown always, printing handled externally by integrator.
Basic printing configuration
1YocoSDK.setPrinterConfig(
2    PrinterConfig(
3        printerProvider: PrinterProvider.sdk
4    )
5)

When using PrinterProvider.sdk, the SDK will automatically detect attached and integrated printers, and will show the print option on the payment receipt screen.

Print button

Set up PrintParameters when creating a charge.

Lookup with print in charge flow
1// Provide a clientTransactionId when setting up printing for refund
2// or lookup of a transaction
3let printParams = PrintParameters(
4  clientTransactionId: nil,
5  merchantInfo: merchantInfo,
6  transactionType: YocoTransactionType.GOODS,
7  receiptType: ReceiptCopyType.BOTH,
8  signature: nil,
9  metadata: ["Meta": "Data"],
10  printStartListener: { result, printProgress in
11    printProgress(.inProgress(message: nil))
12    let seconds = 1.5
13    DispatchQueue.main
14      .asyncAfter(
15        deadline:
16          DispatchTime
17          .now() + seconds
18      ) {
19        if self.printSuccess {
20          printProgress(.complete(message: nil))
21        } else {
22          printProgress(.error(message: "No printer"))
23        }
24      }
25  },
26  printerStatusListener: { status in
27    print("Status: \(status)")
28  },
29  printResultListener: { result in
30    print("Result: \(result)")
31  })
32let transactionID = YocoSDK.charge(
33  money,
34  paymentType: type,
35  currency: .zar,
36  tippingConfig: tippingSetting,
37  paymentParameters: getPaymentParams(),
38  printParameters: printParams,
39  completionHandler: { paymentResult in
40    // Do something once the payment is complete
41    // and the YocoSDK has dismissed
42  })

To print receipts for older transactions, a standalone printing flow is provided that takes in a clientTransactionId parameter in PrintParameters to perform both lookup and print.
