An example Braintree integration for python in the Flask framework.

1. Install requirements:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

2. Copy the contents of example.env into a new file named .env and fill in your Braintree API credentials. Credentials can be found by navigating to Account > My User > View Authorizations in the Braintree Control Panel. Full instructions can be found on our support site.

3. Start server:

python3 app.py

By default, this runs the app on port 4567. You can configure the port by setting the environmental variable PORT.

Unit tests do not make API calls to Braintree and do not require Braintree credentials. You can run this project's unit tests by calling python test_app.py on the command line.

Sandbox transactions must be made with sample credit card numbers, and the response of a Transaction.sale() call is dependent on the amount of the transaction.

• The example.env contains an APP_SECRET_KEY setting. Even in development you should generate your own custom secret key for your app.
