Hi,
How do I use the CapabilityProvider to call my app from the Payment Fragment when my app icon is pressed?
From the sample gift card processor app’s code, I can see that the giftcard_capabilities.xml file is the one that has to be changed. It’s contents are:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<capability>
<!-- Special App ID for Transaction Processing-->
<appid>co.poynt.samplegiftcardprocessor</appid>
<type>TRANSACTION</type>
<!-- descriptive name of this capability -->
<provider>GIFT CARD</provider>
<!-- reserved to future use. This icon will show up on your CUSTOM button in Payment Fragment payment options in the future -->
<logo>@drawable/ic_launcher</logo>
<!-- entry method could be one of the following
CARDREAD -> card data will be directly passed to this capability provider.
CUSTOM -> other entry methods.
each entry method can be additionally filtered with eval tag.
-->
<!-- value is a first6 digits of card number also referred to as binrange.
value >=601056 && value <= 601056 -->
<!-- for eval expression definition please refer to https://github.com/uklimaschewski/EvalEx -->
<entry_method
eval="value <= 198000 && value >= 197000"
type="CARDREAD" />
<entry_method type="CUSTOM" />
</capability>
I have changed the appid, provider and logo values. Also, I have changed the Service class to call my app’s MainActivity:
Intent paymentActivity = new Intent("COLLECT_CUSTOM_PAYMENT"); paymentActivity.setComponent(new ComponentName(getPackageName(), MainActivity.class.getName())); paymentActivity.putExtra("transaction", transaction); listener.onLaunchActivity(paymentActivity, requestId);
After making these changes, I installed the app to the device. But when I press my app’s icon in the Payment Fragment while making a transaction, it launches the sample gift card processor app which I installed on the device.
Looks like there is a conflict as Capability Manager is unable to recognize my app. If I uninstall the sample app, my app is correctly called.
Please help.
Thank You,
Akilan Arasu
