Braintree Payment / GraphQL

Build Status

For those unfamiliar with Braintree or payments processing, Braintree's homepage is a good place to start to learn more, along with the developer documentation which provides a good overview of the available tools and API's.

This crate allows easy access to Braintree via the GraphQL interface. It offers predefined, common queries and manages connection details.

The advantage of GraphQL is the ability to write custom, specific queries with only those input fields that you need and your individual selection of response fields.

  1. Design and test your queries in the Braintree API Explorer.
  2. Store those graphql queries in your crates queries directory, for instance queries/some_filename.graphql.
  3. Run the "braintree-queries" tool via cargo run --bin braintree-queries in that directory. The tool generates rust structs and methods to perform your queries in a type safe manner. Have a look at the examples/ directory.

Cargo features

  • rustls-tls: Use rustls instead of native-tls (openssl on Linux). If you want to compile this crate with MUSL, this is what you want. Don't forget to disable the default features with --no-default-features.

How to get started

The first thing you want to do is create a sandbox account. A sandbox environment can be used to test your integration without needing to go through the full application process. Once you've created an account, follow the instructions to retrieve your Merchant ID, Public Key, and Private Key and store them in a credentials.json file. Use credentials.json.example as a template. Never commit this file! You should add it to your .gitignore file now.

In your rust program, initialize the Braintree object via those credentials.

use std::error::Error;

use braintreepayment_graphql::{Braintree, Credentials};
use serde_json::from_str;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    let bt = Braintree::new(Credentials::from_file("credentials.json")?);
    // OR: Avoid the IO access on start and embed the file
    let bt = Braintree::new(from_str(include_str!("credentials.json"))?);
}

You might want to adapt the http clients configuration ( reqwest ) to your needs via the [Braintree::with_client] constructor.

Module organisation

With the bt object you perform GraphQL queries (comparable to HTTP GET) and mutations (similar to POST, PUT).

The bt.perform(query) method aims to hide GraphQL details away. The query argument refers to a Query name. For example "CreateCustomer".

This crate comes with predefined queries / mutations for customer management and one-time / recurring transactions. Find the GraphQL files in queries/ and get an overview of available queries, parameters and return types.

The queries are organised in a hierarchical module layout, starting with queries. Customer related queries live in the submodule customer, transactions in the submodule transactions.

Query structs reside in modules with the kebab-case formatted name of the respective query (ie, a query with the name CreateCustomer lives in a corresponding module with the name create_customer).

For example to bring CreateCustomer into scope, you would do the following

use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::customer::create_customer::*;

Create, Update, Delete Customers as well as create client tokens

All customer related operations are shown below with an example each.

#[allow(unused_imports)]
use braintreepayment_graphql::{Braintree};
#[allow(unused_imports)]
use failure::*;

fn create_customer(bt: &Braintree) -> Result<String, failure::Error> {
    // You usually want to bring the module with the query struct and input types into scope first.
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::customer::create_customer::*;

    // Perform the query with bt.perform. You may create the variables structure ahead of time, or
    // just in place like here. 
    let customer = bt
        .perform(CreateCustomer {
            customer: CustomerInput {
                first_name: Some("first".to_owned()),
                last_name: Some("last".to_owned()),
                email: Some("[email protected]".to_owned()),
                ..CustomerInput::new()
            },
        })? // Unwrap the response. Most of the time the interesting value is nested inside multiple strucs.
        .create_customer.and_then(|r| r.customer).ok_or(err_msg("customer"))?;

    println!("Received customer {:?}", customer);
    Ok(customer.id)
}

The bt.perform method performs a synchronous network operation and returns with a Result. Network failures, invalid and bad requests but also legit errors (like "Gateway denied") result in a returned Error. Proper error handling is shown further down on an invalid charge_payment request.

fn update_customer(bt: &Braintree, customer_id: &str) -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::customer::update_customer::*;

    let _ = bt.perform(UpdateCustomer {
        cust_id: customer_id.to_owned(),
        customer: CustomerInput {
            first_name: Some("new".to_owned()),
            last_name: Some("name".to_owned()),
            email: Some("[email protected]".to_owned()),
            ..CustomerInput::new()
        },
    })?;
    Ok(())
}

While mutations (create, update, delete) have a reasonable response layout, that cannot be said about queries, like the next one to retrieve a customer by ID.

Braintree implements a pageable API which results in some deeply nested response structures. Use unwrap_customer to extract the customer object.

fn get_customer(bt: &Braintree, customer_id: &str) -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::{customer::get_customer::*, customer_helpers::unwrap_customer};

    let customer = bt
        .perform(
            GetCustomer {
                cust_id: customer_id.to_owned(),
            },
        )?;
    let customer = unwrap_customer(customer).ok_or(err_msg("No customer found with the given ID"))?;

    assert_eq!(customer.first_name, Some("new".to_owned()));
    assert_eq!(customer.last_name, Some("name".to_owned()));
    assert_eq!(customer.email, Some("[email protected]".to_owned()));
    Ok(())
}

A client token is necessary for the Web UI to initialize with a customer context.

fn customer_client_token(bt: &Braintree, customer_id:&str) -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::customer::customer_client_token::*;

    let client_token = bt
        .perform(CustomerClientToken {
            cust_id: customer_id.to_owned(),
        })?
        .create_client_token
        .and_then(|f| f.client_token)
        .ok_or(err_msg("No token found in the response"))?;

    println!("{}", client_token);
    Ok(())
}

All Braintree GraphQL mutations allow to optionally hand a mutation_id. Such an ID is an identifier used to reconcile requests and responses. Some operations like DeleteCustomer do not return anything else but the mutation_id.

fn delete_customer(bt: &Braintree, customer_id:&str) -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::customer::delete_customer::*;

    let delete_mut_id_orig = mutation_id();

    let delete_mut_id = bt
        .perform(DeleteCustomer {
            cust_id: customer_id.to_owned(),
            client_mutation_id: Some(delete_mut_id_orig.to_owned()),
        })?
        .delete_customer
        .and_then(|f| f.client_mutation_id)
        .ok_or(err_msg("Token"))?;

    assert_eq!(delete_mut_id_orig, delete_mut_id);
    Ok(())
}

There are a few more, rare bits related to customers, not covered by this crates' queries. Check the Braintree API Explorer.

Transactions

If decimal accuracy is required, like in the finance sector, a proper decimal number representation is necessary. This library uses rust_decimal. Create a decimal number via the macro dec!, ie dec!(12.12) or convert a string representation or an integer. Use floating point numbers at your own risk!

Once you have this, you are able to create your first transaction. Find transaction related queries in this section.

Charge single-use payment method

fn payment(
    bt: &Braintree,
    payment_method_id: &str,
    amount: rust_decimal::Decimal,
    order_id:Option<String>
) -> Result<ChargePaymentMethodChargePaymentMethodTransaction, failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transactions::charge_payment_method::*;

    let response = bt.perform(ChargePaymentMethod {
        payment_method_id: payment_method_id.to_owned(),
        transaction: TransactionInput {
            order_id,
            purchase_order_number: Some("demo_id".to_owned()),
            ..TransactionInput::new(amount)
        },
        client_mutation_id: None,
    })?.charge_payment_method
       .and_then(|f| f.transaction)
       .ok_or(err_msg("Expected a payment result"))?;

   Ok(response)
}

Vault payment

A vaulted payment response contains a new payment method ID which can be used the same like a single-use payment method ID.

fn vault(
    bt: &Braintree,
    payment_method_id: &str,
) -> Result<VaultPaymentVaultPaymentMethodPaymentMethod, failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transactions::vault_payment::*;

    let r = bt
        .perform(VaultPayment {
            vault_payment_input: VaultPaymentMethodInput {
                ..VaultPaymentMethodInput::new(payment_method_id.to_owned())
            },
        })?
        .vault_payment_method
        .and_then(|f| f.payment_method)
        .ok_or(err_msg("Expected a vault result"))?;
    Ok(r)
}

Remove vaulted payment method

fn delete_transaction(bt: &Braintree, payment_method_id: &str) -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transactions::delete_vaulted_payment::*;

    let _ = bt.perform(DeleteVaultedPayment {
        input: DeletePaymentMethodFromVaultInput {
            ..DeletePaymentMethodFromVaultInput::new(payment_method_id.to_owned())
        },
    })?;

    Ok(())
}

Search for a transaction

use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transaction_helper::unwrap_search_result;

pub fn search_transaction(
    bt: &Braintree,
    order_id: &str,
) -> Result<Vec<SearchTransactionSearchTransactionsEdgesNode>, failure::Error> {
    use crate::queries::transactions::search_transaction::*;

    let r = bt
        .perform(SearchTransaction {
            input: TransactionSearchInput {
                order_id: Some(SearchTextInput {
                    is: Some(order_id.to_owned()),
                    ..SearchTextInput::new()
                }),
                ..TransactionSearchInput::new()
            },
        })?;

    unwrap_search_result(r)
}

Get transaction by ID

use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transaction_helper::unwrap_get_result;

pub fn get_transaction(
    bt: &Braintree,
    transaction_id: &str,
) -> Result<Option<GetTransactionSearchTransactionsEdgesNode>, failure::Error> {
    use crate::queries::transactions::get_transaction::*;

    let r = bt
        .perform(GetTransaction {
            transaction_id: transaction_id.to_owned(),
        })?;

    Ok(unwrap_get_result(r)?)
}

Error Handling

Transactions (and other operations) may fail. If the error is related to Braintree (in contrast to network errors), the braintree_error method will return a structure with the following information:

  • message The human-readable error message. This value is not intended to be parsed and may change at any time.
  • path A "path" vector with the GraphQL query or mutation causing the error. For example ["ChargePaymentMethod","Input","paymentMethodId"]
  • error_class A string that represents the error class. Can be any of AUTHENTICATION, AUTHORIZATION, INTERNAL, UNSUPPORTED_CLIENT, NOT_FOUND, NOT_IMPLEMENTED, RESOURCE_LIMIT, SERVICE_AVAILABILITY, VALIDATION

A quote from the Braintree website:

Unsuccessful transactions are a normal part of transaction processing and should not be considered exceptional. If an error occurs, you will either not receive a transaction object on the payload, or you will receive only a partial object.

fn payment_charge_fail() -> Result<(), failure::Error> {
    use braintreepayment_graphql::queries::transactions::charge_payment_method::*;
    use rust_decimal_macros::*;

    let bt = Braintree::new(Credentials::from_file("credentials.json")?);

    let payment_id = "invalid_id";

    let response = bt.perform(ChargePaymentMethod {
        payment_method_id: payment_id.to_owned(),
        transaction: TransactionInput {
            order_id: Some("demo_id".to_owned()),
            purchase_order_number: Some("demo_id".to_owned()),
            ..TransactionInput::new(dec!(12.12))
        },
        client_mutation_id: None,
    });

    // We have used an invalid payment method id. We expect a VALIDATION error.
    let error = braintree_error(response.err().as_ref());
    if !error.is_some() {
        bail!("Expected error");
    }
    let error = error.unwrap();
    assert_eq!(error.error_class, "VALIDATION".to_owned());
    assert_eq!(error.path, vec!["chargePaymentMethod".to_owned(),"input".to_owned(), "paymentMethodId".to_owned()]);
    assert_eq!(error.message, "Unknown or expired single-use payment method.".to_owned());
    Ok(())
}
