Proxy Serversanchor

If your server requires HTTP requests to be made through a proxy, you can follow these steps to set up proxies for the server-side SDK.

Setupanchor

First, initialize your Braintree gateway with your API credentials:

  1. Java
BraintreeGateway gateway = new BraintreeGateway(
  Environment.PRODUCTION,
  "braintree_merchant_id",
  "braintree_public_key",
  "braintree_private_key"
);

You can then set a proxy URL and port for your Braintree configuration:

  1. Java
String proxyAddress = "your-proxy-domain.com";
int portNumber = 8080;

gateway.getConfiguration().setProxy(proxyAddress, portNumber);

You can also create a custom proxy object to pass into setProxy():

  1. Java
SocketAddress address = new InetSocketAddress("http://your-proxy-domain.com", 8080);
Proxy proxy = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.HTTP, address);

gateway.getConfiguration().setProxy(proxy);

Authenticated proxiesanchor

To configure an authenticated proxy, extend the abstract Authenticator class and override getPasswordAuthentication():

  1. Java
class CustomAuthenticator extends Authenticator {
  public PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
    return new PasswordAuthentication("user", "password".toCharArray());
  }
}

Register your concrete subclass with the system by calling setDefault(Authenticator):

  1. Java
Authenticator authinstance = new CustomAuthenticator();
Authenticator.setDefault(authinstance);
