Module Name: One-Time Purchase Checkout

Category: Payment
Summary: Support single transactions without subscriptions.
Target User: Developer

This module provides functionality to handle one-time purchases during checkout, including API endpoints, UI components, and data schemas for seamless integration.

1. FastAPI Endpoint

The following example shows a FastAPI endpoint that processes a one-time purchase:

from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends, HTTPException
from typing import List, Optional
import models
from pydantic import BaseModel

router = APIRouter()

class PurchaseItem(BaseModel):
    product_id: str
    price: float
    quantity: int

class PurchaseDetails(PydanticBase):
    items: List[PurchaseItem]
    customer_name: str
    email: str
    phone: str
    delivery_address: Optional[str] = None
    payment_method: str

@router.post("/api/checkout/purchase")
async def process_purchase(details: PurchaseDetails):
    try:
        # Process the purchase here
        return {"message": "Purchase processed successfully", 
                "order_id": "12345"}
    except Exception as e:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=500, detail=str(e))

2. React UI Snippet

The following React component demonstrates a simple checkout form:

import React, { useState } from 'react';

function CheckoutForm() {
    const [formData, setFormData] = useState({
        cardNumber: '',
        nameOnCard: '',
        expiryDate: '',
        cvv: '',
        email: ''
    });

    const handleSubmit = (e) => {
        e.preventDefault();
        // Handle checkout submission
        console.log(formData);
    };

    return (
        <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
            <div className="checkout-form">
                <div>
                    <label>Card Number</label>
                    <input
                        type="text"
                        name="cardNumber"
                        value={formData.cardNumber}
                        onChange={(e) => setFormData({...formData, cardNumber: e.target.value})}
                        required
                    />
                </div>
                
                <div>
                    <label>Name on Card</label>
                    <input
                        type="text"
                        name="nameOnCard"
                        value={formData.nameOnCard}
                        onChange={(e) => setFormData({...formData, nameOnCard: e.target.value})}
                        required
                    />
                </div>

                <div>
                    <label>Expiry Date</label>
                    <input
                        type="text"
                        name="expiryDate"
                        value={formData.expiryDate}
                        onChange={(e) => setFormData({...formData, expiryDate: e.target.value})}
                        required
                    />
                </div>

                <div>
                    <label>CVV</label>
                    <input
                        type="text"
                        name="cvv"
                        value={formData.cvv}
                        onChange={(e) => setFormData({...formData, cvv: e.target.value})}
                        required
                    />
                </div>

                <div>
                    <label>Email</label>
                    <input
                        type="email"
                        name="email"
                        value={formData.email}
                        onChange={(e) => setFormData({...formData, email: e.target.value})}
                        required
                    />
                </div>
            </div>
            <button type="submit">Complete Purchase</button>
        </form>
    );
}

export default CheckoutForm;

3. Data Schema (Pydantic)

The following Pydantic schema defines the data structure for a one-time purchase:

from pydantic import BaseModel
from typing import List, Optional

class Product(BaseModel):
    product_id: str
    name: str
    price: float
    description: Optional[str] = None

class CheckoutItem(BaseModel):
    product_id: str
    quantity: int
    price: float

class PaymentMethod(BaseModel):
    type: str  # e.g., 'credit_card', 'paypal', 'apple_pay'
    details: dict

class CustomerInfo(BaseModel):
    name: str
    email: str
    phone: Optional[str] = None
    address: Optional[str] = None

class OneTimePurchaseSchema(BaseModel):
    order_id: str
    items: List[CheckoutItem]
    customer_info: CustomerInfo
    payment_method: PaymentMethod
    timestamp: str
