Today, I released the Grails Paypal Plugin again, the new release number: V0.4.

New features:

  • The plugin now supports purchases with multiple items (using whatever shopping cart you like). Thanks to Matt Stine for the code!
  • The plugin now records the information about the buyer that is supplied by Paypal after each transaction. This information includes name, address and email address, for example.

Bugs fixed:

  • In some rare situations when an Apache reverse proxy was running as a front end for the Tomcat engine, the plugin could not redirect back to the original URI in case of an invalid payment. I replaced the URI by an absolute URL, now it works. Users of the plugin: Please change the parameter originalURI to originalURL and supply an absolute URL when you use the Paypal button tag, like this:

For users of Paypal Plugin V0.3: The schema has changed, the database needs to be migrated!
