MPesa SDK (Rust Library)

A Rust library to interact with the MPesa API, simplifying B2C payment integrations and more.

Features

• Configuration management for API and public keys.
• Easy B2C Payment initiation.
• Customizable headers and parameters for requests.
• Built-in encryption and token generation for request authentication.
• Comprehensive error handling with the MPesaError enum.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Rust compiler and Cargo.
• An MPesa Developer account to obtain API and public keys.

Installation

Include this in your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
mpesa_sdk = "0.1.0"

Then, build your project with:

$ cargo build

Basic Usage

use mpesa_sdk::{MPesaClient, data::B2CInput};

let client = MPesaClient::new("YOUR_API_KEY", "YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY");
let mut payment_request = B2CInput::new();

payment_request.set_transaction_reference("TRANSACTION_REF");
payment_request.set_customer_msisdn("258848255237");
payment_request.set_amount("1000");
payment_request.set_third_party_reference("THIRD_PARTY_REF");
payment_request.set_service_provider_code("171717");

let response = client.b2c_payment(&payment_request);

match response {
    Ok(resp) => println!("{:?}", resp),
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Error: {:?}", e),
}

Error Handling

The SDK uses the MPesaError enum for comprehensive error feedback. When making requests, results can be pattern-matched against these errors:

match result {
    Ok(data) => {
        // Process success scenario
    },
    Err(MPesaError::NetworkError(_)) => {
        // Handle network errors
    },
    Err(MPesaError::SerializationError(_)) => {
        // Handle serialization errors
    },
    // ... other specific errors
    Err(_) => {
        // Handle general or unknown errors
    }
}

For a full list of error variants, refer to the MPesaError documentation.
