Re: Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration
Hi all -
I wanted to bring an update to the list on the Mifos/Mojaloop integration.
I have been working on this in conjunction with the Payment Gateway project
that Sanyam and Rahul are doing with GSoC. At this point, I have been able
to successfully do a P2P transfer between 2 Fineract instances using
Mojaloop. I still have some additional work to do on this case - and have
some other use cases to work on.
In the meantime, I started to document some of the flows and information
about Mojaloop integration. You can find that document here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Mojaloop+Integration
Please feel free to let me know if you have thoughts, questions or
suggestions.
Thanks,
Steve

Configuration of Two-Factor Authentication WAS[ Re: [Mifos-developer]
Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration
Posted by Ed Cable <ed...@mifos.org>.
Emmanuel,
Let's take this to its own separate relevant thread.
To enable 2FA, follow instructions at :
https://mifosforge.jira.com/wiki/spaces/projects/pages/185277689/GSoC+2017+-+Two-Factor+Authentication
Fineract Implementation DetailsEnabling Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication can be enabled by adding an active
*twofactor* profile
to Fineract(e.g. in application.properties or with a start parameter).
*-Ptwofactor=enabled* parameter can be used with Gradle build job.

Re: [Mifos-developer] Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration
Posted by Steve Conrad <sc...@gmail.com>.
Hi James -
Thanks for working through the use cases.
As far as the ILP component and generating the hash, I did work through
that - creating a shared secret and generating the hash. However, in my
communications with the Mojaloop team (and my review of the current
Mojaloop codebase), they are not using the ILP protocol currently for
central ledger transactions. My understanding is that it may be implemented
in the future for cross-border payments.
I will plan to look into ILP again as I am porting my work to use the
payment gateway code that Sanyam developed.
Just FYI, ILP is licensed under Apache License 2.0.
Please let me know if you have other questions.
Thanks,
Steve

Re: [Mifos-developer] Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration
Posted by James Dailey <ja...@gmail.com>.
Hi - Thanks again Steve for helping out.
To bump this up a bit, I'd like to add some requirements about various
payment transactions that can go over the Mojaloop--Fineract connection.
First though, a question to Steve - did you implement the ILP component on
the mifos or fineract infrastructure such that it can generate the proper
hash to the Mojaloop central respository service? What license is the ILP
library offered under? [side bar: I understand that this is the only
piece that has to be implemented on the Mifos/Fineract side, the rest is
API event driven and should hopefully be within existing scope.
I'll look to add these to the requirements on wiki unless someone objects,
but in general, the use cases should include:
* Merchant Payments: A customer uses their smartphone (or smart dumb
phone) to take a picture of a QR code on the merchants counter or machine.
The QR code provides the "request for payment or invoice request". Then
the user authorizes that funds are pushed from their account to the
Merchant Account. Customer and Merchant should be on different instances
of Fineract/Mifos and Mojaloop should be in the middle.
* Bulk Payments: A gov't entity (or another big payor) sends a list of
people to pay and amounts with a 'pay by" date. The DFSP that the Gov't
works with is able to send a test, customer by customer, using the ID
provided to verify that the customer has an account registered with one of
the DFSP entities connected to the mojaloop instance. That is, the
addressing in each DFSP should be slightly different to test the efficacy
of the central repository and look up features in Mojaloop. In one, the
national ID should be primary and a phone number available, in the second
entity the phone number should be primary. Customer may be present in more
than one entity with an account and the logic of which account to choose
should be established via the Mojaloop address-lookup process
(configuration).
* P2P A payment from person to person where they are not in the same
location. The payment must be pushed from the Sender to the Receiver and
use the lookup value that the user has. The scenarios can vary based on
what information that the person sending has about the recipient. For
instance, send to "telephone number" with a response back from the system
that the number is owned by "name". The response is of course provided via
the Mojlaoop system in the middle implementing what we might think of as
the address and routing lookup.
Comments?

Re: [Mifos-developer] Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration

Hi Emmanuel -
That particular question is outside the scope of this thread, and
unfortunately I am not familiar with all of the necessary steps for
configuring two-factor authentication. I would suggest starting a new
thread in the dev list with your question.

Re: [Mifos-developer] Discussing Mojaloop and Fineract Integration
Posted by Emmanuel Njoku <ei...@gmail.com>.
Hi Steve,
Thank you for your swift response. I installed Mifos-x on my Laptop, After
login to Mifos using "mifos and password". I want to enable two factor
authentication, then a message displayed that Two-Factor authentication is
disabled or not supported on the server!. So can you assist me step by step
on how to enable it on Ubuntu or Window.
