You can create a simple service with the API payment and then you inject the service inside your Livewire component which need it.

Implementing Payment Drivers
Dear Laravel community,
I am currently working on a fully custom e-commerce site. I am just not quite sure how to implement the payments. The problem here is that I have to write my own API-drivers for multiple different payment providers. So we have some payment methods that are provided by provider A and some by provider B.
I thought I'd make an abstract class PaymentDriver and then store the concrete implementation in my payment_methods table in the database:
- String
driver: for example\App\Payments\PaymentDriverA
In the corresponding Livewire components I don't want to implement all the API logic because it might be that I want to have multiple different components for example for the checkout, returning an order or editing an order in the backend. So I need a global service that makes the Payment Api available to all these components. In the end, I just want to pass the PaymentMethod Model to my livewire components and that should be enough.
Any Ideas on how to improve / implement this idea? Is there anything I should be careful of?

@vincent15000 A great article, thanks a lot! I will definitely look into Services and the best-practices repo.

@martinbean Thanks for the notice! That looks like a nice wrapper for the drivers. Unfortunately, my payment provider is not available so I'd have to write my own anyways.

@Cainy Shouldn’t take too much effort to create a class for your specific payment provider. You could even then contribute it back to the project if it’s a provider other people use and would benefit from it being included in the Omnipay library 🙂
