Hi Daniel,
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question, but there already is a google
checkout payment module included with Satchmo. I have it just about set
up on my site (still trying to figure out something with the SSL)
Is anybody else using this module?

I've got Satchmo running, and now I'm ready to work on a payment module
for Google Checkout. I've been looking into what's available out there
and I find gchecky 0.2.1 (Sep. 2008) <http://code.google.com/p/gchecky/>
and getpaid.googlecheckout 0.3 (Dec. 2008)
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/getpaid.googlecheckout/0.3>. Now I find it
odd that these seem to be abandoned years ago.
Also I find documentation for these and Satchmo integration to be hard
to find, or lacking in step by step instructions. I'm fairly new with
Django/Satchmo... yet I've struggled ahead enough to get it working and
manageable.
I've ordered a book on Django (Beginning Django Ecommerce (Expert's
Voice in Web Development)) which is the most recommended book in this
category on Amazon. I need to get things done as quickly as I'm able,
and the book won't arrive for another two weeks according to estimation.
So any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Now I also see that Daniel Shorten has made a Beanstream
<http://daniel.shortens.net/weblog/satchmo> module for Satchmo. And
according to him he used the Google Checkout API as a model to do this.
So he recommends reverse enginering his module for Google Checkout in
Satchmo.
Now I want to use method #2 of Google's Checkout API to integrate as a
custom cart and get verification on sales paid for to update the
inventory live on purchase.
So all in all it looks like I may have everything I need... but to help
you understand where I'm at... I don't know what to do, and in which
order to do it in. I need direction basically. Google has sample/demo
code for 6 languages for the checkout... none of which are Python.
Google's Checkout Cart API does have really good outline for Google
Checkout Custom Cart How To XML
<http://code.google.com/apis/checkout/developer/Google_Checkout_Custom_Cart_How_To_XML.html>.
But then I feel the next step from here would be to learn either Python
XML handling to generate the order and figure out how to use that with
signals, or some sort of template pre-generated for orders in XML format
that uses Satchmo/Django to iterate over each product in cart and submit it.
If you can just help me get started... If I can get started right I can
most likely find my way through. A general plan.
Thanks!!!
-Daniel
