Setup Square Payment Plugin

[brazen steeple]

Hello, I understand if I cannot find the square-payment module in the docs, i should look for one in the community or write my own.
However Square is actually quite commonly used.

Let me know if you came across or wrote your own square payment provider

Or if there's an existing package i can use

Hello @brazen steeple you can check out RSC labs plugin for Square Payments here: https://github.com/RSC-Labs/medusa-square-payment

seriously? 😭 😭

Haven't used it myself, but a quick browse on the internet found that, have a look

[brazen steeple]

most functions are not implemented in that package, it cannot be used actually.
but thanks, it's a nice starting point to write my custom provider.

Yeah, you are right. Just found this, seems more complete, you could try copy pasting and giving it a go in your project: http://github.com/filenamedotexe/troy-bbq-new/blob/main/apps/medusa-backend/src/modules/payment/providers/square/index.ts

Haha thanks, part of the seasoned dev toolkit 😅

@long sleet Square client does not have payment initiate functionality. theres only payment.create()
but medusa payment provider asks for paymentService initatePayment function

Out of curiosity @quick ocean how do you usually search for modules / plugins in GitHub? You seem pretty good at it 😁
