Try out hyperswitch on your system

NOTE: This guide is aimed at users and developers who wish to set up hyperswitch on their local systems and requires quite some time and effort. If you'd prefer trying out hyperswitch quickly without the hassle of setting up all dependencies, you can try out hyperswitch sandbox environment.

There are two options to set up hyperswitch on your system:

  1. Use Docker Compose
  2. Set up a Rust environment and other dependencies on your system

Check the Table Of Contents to jump to the relevant section.

Table Of Contents:

Set up hyperswitch using Docker Compose

  1. Install Docker Compose.

  2. Clone the repository and switch to the project directory:

    git clone https://github.com/juspay/hyperswitch
cd hyperswitch

  3. (Optional) Configure the application using the config/docker_compose.toml file. The provided configuration should work as is. If you do update the docker_compose.toml file, ensure to also update the corresponding values in the docker-compose.yml file.

  4. Start all the services using Docker Compose:

    docker compose up -d

  5. Run database migrations:

    docker compose run hyperswitch-server bash -c \
   "cargo install diesel_cli && \
   diesel migration --database-url postgres:https://db_user:db_pass@pg:5432/hyperswitch_db run"

  6. Verify that the server is up and running by hitting the health endpoint:

    curl --head --request GET 'https://localhost:8080/health'

    If the command returned a 200 OK status code, proceed with trying out our APIs.

Set up a Rust environment and other dependencies

Set up dependencies on Ubuntu-based systems

This section of the guide provides instructions to install dependencies on Ubuntu-based systems. If you're running another Linux distribution, install the corresponding packages for your distribution and follow along.

  1. Install the stable Rust toolchain using rustup:

    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

    When prompted, proceed with the default profile, which installs the stable toolchain.

    Optionally, verify that the Rust compiler and cargo are successfully installed:

    rustc --version

    Be careful when running shell scripts downloaded from the Internet. We only suggest running this script as there seems to be no rustup package available in the Ubuntu package repository.

  2. Install PostgreSQL and start the postgresql systemd service:

    sudo apt update
sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib libpq-dev
systemctl start postgresql.service

    If you're running any other distribution than Ubuntu, you can follow the installation instructions on the PostgreSQL documentation website to set up PostgreSQL on your system.

  3. Install Redis and start the redis systemd service:

    sudo apt install redis-server
systemctl start redis.service

    If you're running a distribution other than Ubuntu, you can follow the installation instructions on the Redis website to set up Redis on your system.

  4. Install diesel_cli using cargo:

    cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features "postgres"

  5. Make sure your system has OpenSSL installed:

    sudo apt install libssl-dev

Once you're done with setting up the dependencies, proceed with setting up the database.

Set up dependencies on Windows

We'll be using winget in this section of the guide, where possible. You can opt to use your favorite package manager instead.

  1. Install PostgreSQL database, following the official installation docs.

  2. Install Redis, following the official installation docs.

  3. Install rust with winget:

    winget install -e --id Rustlang.Rust.GNU

  4. Install diesel_cli using cargo:

    cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features "postgres"

  5. Install OpenSSL with winget:

    winget install openssl

Once you're done with setting up the database, proceed with configuring the application.

Set up dependencies on MacOS

We'll be using Homebrew in this section of the guide. You can opt to use your favorite package manager instead.

  1. Install the stable Rust toolchain using rustup:

    brew install rustup-init
rustup-init

    When prompted, proceed with the default profile, which installs the stable toolchain.

    Optionally, verify that the Rust compiler and cargo are successfully installed:

    rustc --version

  2. Install PostgreSQL and start the postgresql service:

    brew install postgresql@14
brew services start postgresql@14

    If a postgres database user was not already created, you may have to create one:

    createuser -s postgres

  3. Install Redis and start the redis service:

    brew install redis
brew services start redis

  4. Install diesel_cli using cargo:

    cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features "postgres"

    If linking diesel_cli fails due to missing libpq (if the error message is along the lines of cannot find -lpq), you may also have to install libpq and reinstall diesel_cli:

    brew install libpq
export PQ_LIB_DIR="$(brew --prefix libpq)/lib"

cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features "postgres"

    You may also choose to persist the value of PQ_LIB_DIR in your shell startup file like so:

    echo 'PQ_LIB_DIR="$(brew --prefix libpq)/lib"' >> ~/.zshrc

Once you're done with setting up the dependencies, proceed with setting up the database.

Set up the database

  1. Create the database and database users, modifying the database user credentials and database name as required.

    export DB_USER="db_user"
export DB_PASS="db_pass"
export DB_NAME="hyperswitch_db"

    On Ubuntu-based systems:

    sudo -u postgres psql -e -c \
   "CREATE USER $DB_USER WITH PASSWORD '$DB_PASS' SUPERUSER CREATEDB CREATEROLE INHERIT LOGIN;"
sudo -u postgres psql -e -c \
   "CREATE DATABASE $DB_NAME;"

    On MacOS:

    psql -e -U postgres -c \
   "CREATE USER $DB_USER WITH PASSWORD '$DB_PASS' SUPERUSER CREATEDB CREATEROLE INHERIT LOGIN;"
psql -e -U postgres -c \
   "CREATE DATABASE $DB_NAME"

  2. Clone the repository and switch to the project directory:

    git clone https://github.com/juspay/hyperswitch
cd hyperswitch

  3. Run database migrations using diesel_cli:

    diesel migration --database-url postgres:https://$DB_USER:$DB_PASS@localhost:5432/$DB_NAME run

Once you're done with setting up the database, proceed with configuring the application.

Configure the application

The application configuration files are present under the config directory.

The configuration file read varies with the environment:

Refer to config.example.toml for all the available configuration options. Refer to Development.toml for the recommended defaults for local development.

Ensure to update the Development.toml file if you opted to use different database credentials as compared to the sample ones included in this guide.

Once you're done with configuring the application, proceed with running the application.

Run the application

  1. Compile and run the application using cargo:

    cargo run

  2. Verify that the server is up and running by hitting the health endpoint:

    curl --head --request GET 'https://localhost:8080/health'

    If the command returned a 200 OK status code, proceed with trying out our APIs.

Try out our APIs

Set up your merchant account

  1. Sign up or sign in to Postman.

  2. Open our Postman collection and switch to the "Variables" tab. Update the value under the "current value" column for the baseUrl variable to have the hostname and port of the locally running server (https://localhost:8080 by default).

  3. While on the "Variables" tab, add the admin API key you configured in the application configuration under the "current value" column for the admin_api_key variable.

    1. If you're running Docker Compose, you can find the configuration file at config/docker_compose.toml, search for admin_api_key to find the admin API key.
    2. If you set up the dependencies locally, you can find the configuration file at config/Development.toml, search for admin_api_key to find the admin API key

  4. Open the "Quick Start" folder in the collection.

  5. Open the "Merchant Account - Create" request, switch to the "Body" tab and update any request parameters as required.

    • If you want to use a different connector for making payments with than the provided default, update the data field present in the routing_algorithm field to your liking.

    Click on the "Send" button to create a merchant account. You should obtain a response containing most of the data included in the request, along with some additional fields. Store the merchant ID, API key and publishable key returned in the response securely.

  6. Open the "Variables" tab in the Postman collection and add the following variables:

    1. Add the API key you obtained in the previous step under the "current value" column for the api_key variable.
    2. Add the merchant ID you obtained in the previous step under the "current value" column for the merchant_id variable.

Set up a payment connector account

  1. Sign up on the payment connector's (say Stripe, Adyen, etc.) dashboard and store your connector API key (and any other necessary secrets) securely.

  2. Open the "Payment Connector - Create" request, switch to the "Body" tab and update any request parameters as required.

    • Pay special attention to the connector_name and connector_account_details fields and update them. You can find connector-specific details to be included in this spreadsheet.
    • Open the "Variables" tab in the Postman collection and set the connector_api_key variable to your connector's API key.

    Click on the "Send" button to create a payment connector account. You should obtain a response containing most of the data included in the request, along with some additional fields.

  3. Follow the above steps if you'd like to add more payment connector accounts.

Create a Payment

Ensure that you have set up your merchant account and set up at least one payment connector account before trying to create a payment.

  1. Open the "Payments - Create" request, switch to the "Body" tab and update any request parameters as required. Click on the "Send" button to create a payment. If all goes well and you had provided the correct connector credentials, the payment should be created successfully. You should see the status field of the response body having a value of succeeded in this case.

    • If the status of the payment created was requires_confirmation, set confirm to true in the request body and send the request again.

  2. Open the "Payments - Retrieve" request and click on the "Send" button (without modifying anything). This should return the payment object for the payment created in Step 2.

Create a Refund

  1. Open the "Refunds - Create" request in the "Quick Start" folder folder and switch to the "Body" tab. Update the amount to be refunded, if required, and click on the "Send" button. This should create a refund against the last payment made for the specified amount. Check the status field of the response body to verify that the refund hasn't failed.
  2. Open the "Refunds - Retrieve" request and switch to the "Params" tab. Set the id path variable in the "Path Variables" table to the refund_id value returned in the response during the previous step. This should return the refund object for the refund created in the previous step.

That's it! Hope you got a hang of our APIs. To explore more of our APIs, please check the remaining folders in the Postman collection.
