Basic-Blazor-WASM-app-with-Paddle-checkout

Is it possible to integrate the Paddle checkout with Blazor?

The short answer is yes, but you will need to use jsRuntime in order to run the Javascript functions.

There are two flavours of Blazor - Web Assembly or WASM (client-side) and Server. The following relates to Web Assembly, but the concepts are similar for the Server-side version.

---

Include Paddle.js

Add paddle.js to the head of the wwwroot/index.html file as you would a regular HTML page as per the help documents​ (you can also add eventCallbacks as described here​ if you want)

---

Create a class to pass data to checkouts

In Program.cs create a public class called Checkout inside the blazor_web namespace. This is going to allow us to pass data to Paddle when we call Paddle.Checkout.open:

public class Checkout
  {
    public string Product { get; set; }
    public string Email { get; set; }
    public string Country { get; set; }
    public string Postcode { get; set; }
    public string Override { get; set; }
  }

---

Inject IJSRuntime to the page/view

In the .razor file where you want to include your checkout function, add @inject IJSRuntime jsRuntime to the top of the page in order to include the jsRuntime.

---

Create a buy button

Create a button with an onclick event - e.g. <button @onclick=ButtonClicked>Buy Now!</button>

Define a private async Task called ButtonClicked in a @code{} block in the same .razor file:

private async Task ButtonClicked()\ {\ var checkout = new Checkout\ {\ Product = CheckoutProduct,\ Email = CheckoutEmail,\ Country = CheckoutCountry,\ Postcode = CheckoutPostcode\ };\ await jsRuntime.InvokeVoidAsync("Paddle.Checkout.open", checkout);\ }

---

Pass the checkout values to the checkout

The CheckoutProduct, CheckoutEmail, CheckoutCountry and CheckoutPostcode values can either be defined in the code block statically, e.g. public string CheckoutProduct = "12345"; or they can be defined through a form using @bind, e.g. <input type="text" @bind="CheckoutEmail" @bind:event="oninput">
