express-braintree-webhooks

Braintree webhooks middleware for express.js

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install express-braintree-webhooks

var webhooks = require('express-braintree-webhooks');
var gateway = braintree.connect({ ... });

app.post(
    'secret path to webhook',
    webhooks(
        gateway,
        {
            check: function (notification) {
                console.log('braintree check');
            },
            subscription_charged_successfully: function (notification) {
                console.log('make it rain! ', notification.subscription.id);
            },
        }
    )
);

Documantation

var returns = webhooks(gateway, webhookResponses, options);

Item	Description
gateway	Braintree gateway
webhookResponses	An object with kind as key and response as value
options	Additional argument to pass to webhook responses
returns	A function to be passed as express middleware

This middleware does not provide a default url so you'll need to set it up yourself, as this usually involves adding a secret URL

Using the last "options" argument you can pass additional dependancies to your webhook responses to keep your code more testable

Error handling

On braintree error, missing webhook or an exception inside the webhook response, the "next" method is called with "Error" argument, to pass it to the next middleware (e.g. exception handling middleware)

Promises

Webhook reponses can also return promises, in which case the "200 Success" response is sent to braintree on fullfilment of the promise. On rejection it is passed to next.
