In this example we're going to look at testing webhook notifications in sandbox, using ngrok to provide a tunnel for our Node HTTP listener, running on localhost, to the internet. For this example, we're going to be using Node to set up notification webhooks for payment events (such as a payment bei...

Occasionally you will find the need to encode binary data as a base64-encoded string. For this we can use the DatatypeConverter class from the javax.xml.bind package: import javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter; import java.util.Arrays; // arbitrary binary data specified as a byte array byte[] bi...

Java SE 5 public enum Singleton { INSTANCE; public void execute (String arg) { // Perform operation here } } Enums have private constructors, are final and provide proper serialization machinery. They are also very concise and lazily initialized in a thread safe manne...

Writing bytes to an OutputStream one byte at a time OutputStream stream = object.getOutputStream(); byte b = 0x00; stream.write( b ); Writing a byte array byte[] bytes = new byte[] { 0x00, 0x00 }; stream.write( bytes ); Writing a section of a byte array int offset = 1; int length = ...

This sample will show you how to update an existing webhook forwarding URL (where the notifications should be POSTed to). To run this, you should have the ID provided back by PayPal when you first created your webhooks. First, add the PayPal SDK and configure the environment (sandbox below). var p...

Since the new line separator varies from platform to platform (e.g. \n on Unix-like systems or \r\n on Windows) it is often necessary to have a platform-independent way of accessing it. In Java it can be retrieved from a system property: System.getProperty("line.separator") Java SE 7 ...

To load a properties file bundled with your application: public class Defaults { public static Properties loadDefaults() { try (InputStream bundledResource = Defaults.class.getResourceAsStream("defaults.properties")) { Properties defaults = new ...

First, establish if the device is capable of accepting Touch ID input. if (context.CanEvaluatePolicy(LAPolicy.DeviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics, out AuthError)) If it does then we can display the Touch ID UI by using: context.EvaluatePolicy(LAPolicy.DeviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometri...

HTTPGetJSON performs an HTTP request to the specified URL and returns a jsonq.JsonQuery object for use in the alert template. Example: template example { {{ $ip := 8.8.8.8 }} {{ $whoisURL := printf "http://whois.arin.net/rest/ip/%s" $ip }} {{ $whoisJQ := $.HTTPGetJSON $who...

There are different data types for different purposes. PHP does not have explicit type definitions, but the type of a variable is determined by the type of the value that is assigned, or by the type that it is casted to. This is a brief overview about the types, for a detailed documentation and exam...

Java SE 7 byte[] bytes = { 0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f }; try(FileOutputStream stream = new FileOutputStream("Hello world.txt")) { stream.write(bytes); } catch (IOException ioe) { // Handle I/O Exception ioe.printStackTrace(); } Java SE 7 byte[] bytes = { 0x48, ...

Streams provide the most direct access to the binary content, so any InputStream / OutputStream implementations always operate on ints and bytes. // Read a single byte from the stream int b = inputStream.read(); if (b >= 0) { // A negative value represents the end of the stream, normal values ...
