NAME WebService::Braintree - A Client Library for wrapping the Braintree Payment Services Gateway API FORK This is a fork of the original vendor-issued Net::Braintree. While the original is depreacted, it continues to work. However, it contains a number of code-style and maintainability problems. This fork was produced to address some of those problems and to provide a community driven basis for going forward. DOCUMENTATION The module is sparesly documented at best. The public facing API is very similar to the ruby libraries which are documented at https://developers.braintreepayments.com/ruby/sdk/server/overview. You can also look over the test suite for guidance of usage, especially the xt/sandbox tests. Not all of these tests work (ones marked todo_skip. This is because they are an adaptation of code used against Braintree's private integration server. Care has been taken that the same sandbox tests that fail in this module also fail for Net::Braintree, and in the same manner. ISSUES The bugtracker is at https://github.com/singingfish/braintree_perl/issues. Patches welcome! TODO/WISHLIST/ROADMAP There is no pod documentation. Sandbox tests fail Some of this is likely needed because the sandbox account needs to be set up just right, and some may be because the paypal test integration server is emulating stateful transactions. Excessive metaobject wrangling The usage of Moose in this code is sub-opimtimal. In particular the following classes use the metaobject in a way that makes what is happening difficult to understand: WebService::Braintree::ResultObject This class is now the only one that is not immutable in the codebase. Unpicking how to make this mutable is problematic. The constructors for the following should be fixed to be explicit (requires understanding of what ResultObject is doing): WebService::Braintree::AdvancedSearchFields WebService::Braintree::SubscriptionSearch WebService::Braintree::CreditCardVerificationSearch WebService::Braintree::CustomerSearch WebService::Braintree::Result WebService::Braintree::TransactionSearch Also, having stared at the internals of some objects in the perl debugger for a bit, I fear there may be memory leaks, but I have not investigated this closely. It's also possible that the way that several of the above methods use a $field variable in package lexical scope that this module may not be fork-safe. These concerns also apply to Net::Braintree (only it has a bigger memory footprint). Sandbox tests One of the sandbox tests is really really slow.
