A lightweight collection of JavaScript and Python code snippets demonstrating common payment processing tasks without external libraries.
This library simulates three essential payment operations for e-commerce systems:
- Payment Authorization
- Payment Capture
- Refund Processing
Each snippet shows the basic flow of how payment systems handle transactions — useful for testing logic or learning payment flow concepts.

- Make sure you have Node.js installed.
You can check by running:node -v
- Clone or download this repository:
git clone https://github.com/datturbomoon/mini-payment-snippets.git cd mini-payment-snippets/js - Run the demo:
node demo.js
- Make sure you have Python installed.
You can check by running:python --version
- Clone or download this repository:
git clone https://github.com/datturbomoon/mini-payment-snippets.git cd mini-payment-snippets/python - Run the demo:
python demo.py
| Function | Language | Description |
|---|---|---|
authorizePayment() / authorize_payment() |
JS / Python | Simulates payment authorization |
capturePayment() / capture_payment() |
JS / Python | Simulates payment capture after authorization |
processRefund() / process_refund() |
JS / Python | Simulates refund processing |
Running the demo prints something like:
Authorization: { status: 'authorized', amount: 100, transactionId: 123456 }
Capture: { status: 'captured', transactionId: 123456, capturedAmount: 100 }
Refund: { status: 'refunded', transactionId: 123456, refundAmount: 50 }
- No external dependencies — everything is built with pure JavaScript and Python.
- These snippets simulate behavior and are not connected to any real payment gateway.
- Ideal for demos, testing logic, and learning payment workflows.
