django-daraja's Issues

Unable to generate access token.

I have upgraded to version 1.3.0 and now the generate_access_token method is raising a Unable to generate access token error.

File "/home/bwaks/Desktop/tech/Job/views.py", line 418, in MakePaymentView
response = cl.stk_push(phone_number, amount, account_reference, transaction_desc, callback_url)

File "/home/bwaks/Desktop/tech/tech/lib/python3.10/site-packages/django_daraja/mpesa/core.py", line 115, in stk_push
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + mpesa_access_token(),

File "/home/bwaks/Desktop/tech/tech/lib/python3.10/site-packages/django_daraja/mpesa/utils.py", line 176, in mpesa_access_token
access_token = generate_access_token()

File "/home/bwaks/Desktop/tech/tech/lib/python3.10/site-packages/django_daraja/mpesa/utils.py", line 149, in generate_access_token
raise MpesaError('Unable to generate access token')
django_daraja.mpesa.exceptions.MpesaError: Unable to generate access token

phone number formatter to utilise regular expressions

if len(phone_number) < 9: raise IllegalPhoneNumberException('Phone number too short')
I believe the utility function for formatting phone numbers should be implemented using a regular expression, unless there was a specific reason not to do so

Default amount setting for the 'lipa na mpesa'

django_daraja/mpesa.core
In the stk_push function the amount variable is by default set to 1
Here is the rendered json data
data = { 'BusinessShortCode': business_short_code, 'Password': password, 'Timestamp': timestamp, 'TransactionType': transaction_type, 'Amount': '1', 'PartyA': party_a, 'PartyB': party_b, 'PhoneNumber': phone_number, 'CallBackURL': callback_url, 'AccountReference': account_reference, 'TransactionDesc': transaction_desc }

Invalis Access token

{ "requestId":"1459-15094918-1", "errorCode": "404.001.03", "errorMessage": "Invalid Access Token" }

I set everything ok, my Api is live

Invalid Credentials Error in Response

This is the Error I'm getting.
{ "requestId":"22759-3566117-1", "errorCode": "500.001.1001", "errorMessage": "Wrong credentials" }
Yet I have provided the correct consumer Key and Secrect.
What could be the issue.

Invalid Access Token Error

I configured everything as guided and it worked. Then I come the next day and rerun the code without changing anything and I get the:
{ "requestId":"5115-78674050-1", "errorCode": "404.001.03", "errorMessage": "Invalid Access Token" } . So after waiting impatiently, it worked again. This keeps happening. Is there a possibility that it's lagging behind on updating the access token, coz you said that it does that automatically?

Transaction Status Api

Hi @martinmogusu and co. The library is great thanks a lot for it.
Have you considered adding the Transaction Status api to it?
If you like I can try making a PR for it.
Thanks again.
