Overview

This project showcases retrieving Merchant locations using the Locations Merchants API.

This application illustrates connecting to the Locations Merchants API using Mastercard's OAuth library, and an OpenAPI generated client.

Compatibility

• Java 11 or later

References

• Mastercard’s OAuth Signer library
• Using OAuth 1.0a to Access Mastercard APIs

Frameworks

• Spring
• OpenAPI Generator
• Java 11
• Maven

Setup

Prerequisites

• Mastercard Developers Account
• A text editor or IDE
• Java 11
• Spring Boot 2.2+
• Apache Maven 3.3+
• Set up the JAVA_HOME environment variable to match the location of your Java installation.

Application Configuration

1. Follow this credentials quick guide to get the credentials needed to run this application
   • Be sure to add Locations to your project.
   • A zip file will be downloaded automatically with your key.
2. Take note of the given consumer key, keyalias, and keystore password given upon the project creation.
3. Extract the zip file which contains .p12 file.
4. Update your credentials in the properties found in /src/main/resources/application.properties.

application.properties

mastercard.api.base-path=https://sandbox.api.mastercard.com/locations/merchants, is the sandbox application URL to connect to Mastercard.

• Note: For production usage, use https://api.mastercard.com/locations/merchants.

Below properties will be required for authentication of API calls.

• mastercard.p12.path=, this refers to .p12 file found in the signing key. Place the downloaded .p12 file path here.
• mastercard.consumer.key=, this refers to your consumer key. Copy it from "Keys" section on your project page in Mastercard Developers.
• mastercard.keystore.alias=keyalias, this is the default value of key alias. If it is modified, use the updated one from keys section in Mastercard Developers.
• mastercard.keystore.pass=keystorepassword, this is the default value of key alias. If it is modified, use the updated one from keys section in Mastercard Developers.

Build and Execute

1. Run mvn clean install from the root of the project directory.
   • When install is run, the OpenAPI Generator plugin will generate the sources for connecting to the Locations API.
2. run java -jar target/locations-merchants-reference-app-X.X.X.jar to start the project.
   • Notice: Replace X with version of the reference app.
   • Example: java -jar target/locations-merchants-reference-app-1.0.0.jar
3. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
   • Example: http://localhost:8080//locations/merchants/countries a GET call to retrieve countries endpoint for Merchant Locations country list.
   • Example: http://localhost:8080/locations/merchants/country-subdivisions?country_code=USA a GET call to retrieve USA country sub divisions endpoint for Merchant Locations country sub division list.

Requesting a Merchant Searches POST call

1. A tool like Postman or Insomnia is needed to perform a POST call

2. select the option POST from the HTTP request dropdown.

3. Provide the URL in the address bar.

   • Example: http://localhost:8080/locations/merchants/searches

4. Select the BODY tab around the address bar and select the option type JSON.

5. A Merchant location search can be performed either by longitude, latitude or by address and postal code like in the below example in BODY.

   • Example:

                   {
                       "longitude":"38.6270",
                       "latitude":"-90.1994",
                       "merchantType":"paypass"
                   }
   

   • Example:

                      "city":"SAINT CHARLES",
                      "countryCode":"USA",
                      "countrySubdivisionCode":"MO",
                      "postalCode":"63303",
                      "merchantType":"paypass"
                   }
