WP Invoice API

XML-RPC based API for interacting with the internal WP-Invoice API.

Original WordPress XML-RPC API (http://codex.wordpress.org/XML-RPC_WordPress_API)

Extending (http://codex.wordpress.org/XML-RPC_Extending)

XML-RPC Method

There is a single XML-RPC method wp.invoice which is in fact used as something like NAMESPACE. Three different arguments should be passed during request to this method in following order:

Internal Method Name
Credentials
Internal Method Arguments

Internal Methods

Current API is new and we are going to add new methods for some time.

Create Invoice

Allows to create invoices from the information passed.

Method: create_invoice

Get Invoice

Returns invoice object by passed ID.

Method: get_invoice

Delete Invoice

Deletes invoice object by passed ID and returns boolean.

Method: delete_invoice

Refund Invoice

Refund invoice by ID. Note that it does not do refund on merchant side.

Method: refund_invoice

Pay Invoice

Pay invoice by ID

Method: pay_invoice

Update Invoice

Update some of the invoice attributes.

Credentials

Credentials are simply WordPress login and password of WordPress user.

Internal Method Arguments

It is the third argument that should contain an Associative Array of parameters. It varies depending on methods. Detailed lists of arguments you can find in WP-Invoice installation. Settings->Help->WP-Invoice XML-RPC API Reference.
