Introduction

The Mangopay Java SDK makes working with the Mangopay API easier in a Java environment. This SDK is open-source and available on GitHub.

Mangopay Java SDK →

Prerequisites

To run the Mangopay Java SDK, you’ll need:

  • A ClientId and an API key – if you don’t have these, contact Sales to get access to the Mangopay Dashboard
  • Java 7.0+
  • Your preferred build automation tools: Maven or Gradle

Getting started

1. Install the Mangopay package

The SDK is published as an artifact on Mangopay’s Maven Central Repository and can be used with Gradle or Maven.

Installation with Gradle

Add the following to your build.gradle file:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.mangopay:mangopay2-java-sdk:2.37.0'
    // All of your other dependencies
}

Installation with Maven

Add the Mangopay dependency to your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.mangopay</groupId>
    <artifactId>mangopay2-java-sdk</artifactId>
    <version>2.37.0</version>
</dependency>

2. Initialize and configure the SDK

import com.mangopay.MangoPayApi;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        MangoPayApi mangopay = new MangoPayApi();
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientId("your-client-id");
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientPassword("your-api-key");

        ...
    }
}

The configuration object of the SDK supports all the following properties:

KeyTypeDefault valueDescription
setClientIdstringNoneYour Mangopay ClientId – can be found in the Dashboard.
setClientPasswordstringNoneYour Mangopay API key – can be found in the Dashboard.
setBaseUrlstringhttps://api.sandbox.mangopay.com/v2.01/The API sandbox URL. Set to the sandbox environment by default. To enable production environment, set it to https://api.mangopay.com
setConnectTimeoutinteger60000Time to wait in milliseconds while trying to establish a connection before terminating the attempt and generating an error.
setReadTimeoutinteger60000Time to wait in milliseconds to receive a response before terminating the attempt and generating an error.
setDebugModebooleanfalseActivates the debug mode. Recommended only in Sandbox.
setUkHeaderFlagbooleanfalsePlatforms that have contracted with Mangopay’s UK entity (MANGOPAY U.K. LIMITED) must include the following header in all requests. If you’re using an SDK, you need to set it to true.

SDK usage

In the Mangopay documentation, you’ll find detailed information of all endpoints paired with its corresponding Java SDK method implementation example. Be sure to customize the provided code to suit your specific requirements.

Idempotency support

To make a request with idempotency support, add idempotencyKey parameter to your function.

For more information, see the Idempotency article.

Call - Create user with idempotency key
import com.mangopay.MangoPayApi;
import com.mangopay.core.Address;
import com.mangopay.core.enumerations.CountryIso;
import com.mangopay.core.enumerations.UserCategory;
import com.mangopay.entities.User;
import com.mangopay.entities.UserNatural;

import java.lang.reflect.Field;

public class CreateNaturalUserWithKey {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        MangoPayApi mangopay = new MangoPayApi();
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientId("your-client-id");
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientPassword("your-api-key");

        UserNatural user = new UserNatural();
        Address address = new Address();

        address.setAddressLine1("27 Rue de Rivoli");
        address.setCity("Paris");
        address.setRegion("Île-de-France");
        address.setPostalCode("75001");
        address.setCountry(CountryIso.FR);

        user.setFirstName("Alex");
        user.setLastName("Smith");
        user.setEmail("alex.smith@mgp.com");
        user.setAddress(address);
        user.setBirthday(655772400);
        user.setNationality(CountryIso.FR);
        user.setCountryOfResidence(CountryIso.FR);
        user.setTermsAndConditionsAccepted(true);
        user.setTag("Created with the Mangopay Java SDK");
        user.setUserCategory(UserCategory.PAYER);

        var idempotencyKey = "pk7urhkW55-pTHf445678d";

        User createUser = mangopay.getUserApi().create(idempotencyKey, user);
        
        System.out.println(createUser);
    }
}

In order to retrieve the request made using this  idempotency:

Call - View API Response
import com.mangopay.MangoPayApi;
import com.mangopay.core.Address;
import com.mangopay.entities.IdempotencyResponse;

import java.lang.reflect.Field;

public class GetWithKey {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        MangoPayApi mangopay = new MangoPayApi();
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientId("your-client-id");
        mangopay.getConfig().setClientPassword("your-api-key");

        var idempotencyKey = "pk7urhkW55-pTHf445678d";

        IdempotencyResponse respone = mangopay.getIdempotencyApi().get(idempotencyKey);

        printObjectFields(respone);
        System.out.println("resource: ");
        printObjectFields(respone.getResource());
       
    }

    private static void printObjectFields(Object obj) {
        Class<?> objClass = obj.getClass();
        Field[] fields = objClass.getDeclaredFields();
        for (Field field : fields) {
            field.setAccessible(true);
            try {
                Object value = field.get(obj);
                if (value instanceof Address) {
                    Address address = (Address) value;
                    System.out.println(field.getName() + ": " + address.getAddressLine1() + ", " +
                                       address.getAddressLine2() + ", " +
                                       address.getPostalCode() + " " +
                                       address.getCity() + ", " +
                                       address.getRegion() + ", " +
                                       address.getCountry());
                } else {
                    System.out.println(field.getName() + ": " + value);
                }
            } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
    
}

Pagination and filtering

For endpoints that support pagination and filtering, you can use the Pagination and Sorting objects.

In the Pagination object, you need to specify the page and items per page to return.

In the Sorting object, you need to use the addField() method to specify the sort direction.

As a result, the answer will be paginated, and the total number of items and the total number of pages will be provided. For example, with the List all Users endpoint:

import com.mangopay.MangoPayApi;
import com.mangopay.entities.User;
import com.mangopay.core.Pagination;
import com.mangopay.core.Sorting;
import java.util.List;

MangoPayApi api = new MangoPayApi();

// get all users (with pagination and sorting)
Pagination pagination = new Pagination(1, 8); // get 1st page, 8 items per page
Sorting sort = new Sorting();
sort.addField("SortingField", SortDirection.asc); // Sorting is an enum, its values: none, asc, desc
List<User> users = api.getUserApi().getAll(pagination, sort);

Rate limiting status

Rate limiting in Mangopay restricts the frequency of API requests a client can make over a defined period, automatically updating the limit with each request and blocking additional requests if the limit is exceeded until it resets. For more information, see the rate limiting article.

Call - Test rate limiting
import com.mangopay.entities.RateLimit;

import java.lang.reflect.Field;

public class TryRateLimiting {

    private RateLimit rateLimit;

    public static int callCounter = 1;

    public TryRateLimiting(int intervalMinutes) {
        this.rateLimit = new RateLimit(intervalMinutes);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Rate limit with allowed calls equal to 10 for demonstration purposes)
        TryRateLimiting example = new TryRateLimiting(1); 
        example.rateLimit.setCallsRemaining(7); 
        example.rateLimit.setResetTimeSeconds(System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000 + (example.rateLimit.getIntervalMinutes() * 60)); // Set initial reset time

        var calls = 10;
        // Simulate multiple API calls
        for (int i = 0; i < calls; i++) {
            example.makeAPICall();
            callCounter++;
        }
    }
    
    // Simulate making an API call
    public void makeAPICall() {

        // Check if the current time has passed the reset time, if so reset the rate limit
        long currentTimeSeconds = System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000;
        if (currentTimeSeconds >= rateLimit.getResetTimeSeconds()) {
            rateLimit.setCallsMade(0);
            rateLimit.setCallsRemaining(rateLimit.getAllowedCalls());
            rateLimit.setResetTimeSeconds(currentTimeSeconds + (rateLimit.getIntervalMinutes() * 60));
        }

        if (rateLimit.getCallsRemaining() > 0) {
            System.out.println("Call #" + callCounter);
            System.out.println("API Call made");

            rateLimit.setCallsMade(rateLimit.getCallsMade() + 1);
            rateLimit.setCallsRemaining(rateLimit.getCallsRemaining() - 1);

            printObjectFields(rateLimit);
        } else {
            System.out.println("Call #" + callCounter);
            System.out.println("Rate limit exceeded. ");
        }
    }

    private static void printObjectFields(Object obj) {
        Class<?> objClass = obj.getClass();
        Field[] fields = objClass.getDeclaredFields();
        for (Field field : fields) {
            field.setAccessible(true);
            try {
                Object value = field.get(obj);
                System.out.println(field.getName() + ": " + value);
            } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
