I need something like this: $result->sources['data'][0]->values

but that's not quite right

$result->sources['data'][0] gives me access to: [protected] _values => array(

why can't I just use json_encode($res);

like $result->sources->data[0]->id ?

harry_: you'll want to use something like $sources->sources->data[0];

harry_: a json object is already returned, so i don't understand why you'd want to json encode the response?

well the api returns a json object, the the php library wraps it as a php object

markin: $result->sources->data[0]->id does give me the id, but I need the whole customer node

harry_: the whole customer node is $result

I need to seralize it

so do $result->__toJSON()

though I would be hesitant about sending the full json response to the client

if you try to searlize the whole object it doesn't behave as expected

how so?

hello?

hi justin__

i have a quick question, I'm trying to implement the Stripe iOS Simple Example

sure

harry_: how is it misbehaving?

but I've tried to bring it into my project, and then a fresh clean project, and both times it fails in the checkout view controller on line: fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")

and then i noticed the documentation has code in the AppDelegate, but the examples do not?

markin: I managed to get it working with: $this->reply($result->__toArray(true));

then I can serialize the node as I need

justin__: how did you bring it into your project? I've seen that error when you try to use a checkoutviewcontroller like just copied and pasted from the example in an interface builder file

yeah i copied and pasted. what is the correct approach? =)

well just follow the tutorial in the stripe docs is one way, the example doesn't use interface builders so it doesn't define init(coder:) since that init function is just called from interface builder

you could try copying the body from init() into init(coder:) but I'm not a huge ios expert

markin: ajs_ thanks for your help guys

sure!

thanks Markin, I will go back and ignore the example for now, and try that!

When there is failure of Charge, charge_id will be created?

Kowsalya: technically yes, a charge ID is created, but it's not returned

Kowsalya: instead an error is returned if the charge fails

how can I get the charge ID?

Yes, I am seeing only response with error [status, title and detail]

Kowsalya: yeah, that's expected

I am trying to get response with failure code and failure message with charge_id

Kowsalya: you can see the charge in the dashboard and the id is displayed there if you need it

so there is no other way to get charge id through API

Kowsalya: hm, off the top of my head i suppose you could use the list charge method to look for the last failed charge. or you could use a webhook to listen for the `charge.failed` event and send a notification when that happens if that's what you're really after

Ok thanks.

hi everyone

hey mightymart

i have a question; from my website i register customers to subscription using credit cards, is there a way to validate if the payment was successful, i get the active subscription back from stripe.js but how can i make sure the credit card payment was made successfully?

mightymart: so if the subscription was created successfully and doesn't have a trial, the payment was successful

mightymart: if you use a trial, there's no charge of course but creating the customer object does authorize the card with the bank

no trial here.. so what i did is: i wanted to capture what happen if i bypass the credit card validation so i enter a test credit card number i.e 4242424242424242 then i changed it for 4242424242424241 skipped the validation and then the request went to stripe and came back with a successfull subscription and i guess successful payment but hwo come? i am in test mode here of course...

mightymart: hm, the 41 number wouldn't tokenize, so i'm not sure i follow. if you want to test failing subs, you could add the card number ending in 0341 in the testing guide

Is it hard to create notifs in webhooks?i mean, im just a bit scared that i might mess with it..

stripe575: nah, i mean if you can send emails (or whatever kind of notification) from your app, then it's just a matter of sending one when an event occurs

stripe575: https://stripe.com/docs/recipes/sending-emails-... should help!

even walks through the process of incorporating mailgun to send emails

well, if the ending card number is 0341 it doesnt pass the stripe,js validation it says the card number is incorrect

lets say the card number is correct but the it has reached the credit limit... the subscription will be successfull but no charges made, is it done automatically by stripe?

mightymart: hm, did you type the number correctly? it's 4000000000000341

mightymart: the subscription payment will fail

mightymart: https://stripe.com/docs/subscriptions/guide is a good place to start with all of this

that guide walks through the process of creating, canceling, and updating subscriptions, along with answers to a lot of common questions

mightymart: the 4000000000000341 number will create a token and you can attach that token to a customer object, but attempting to create a sub will fail

ok and if it fails, is the status information stored inside the subscription object? because right now it says that the subscription is active if i use this number 4000000000000341

mightymart: what's the ID of the customer you're seeing?\

the one with the active subscription using that source?

ahhhhh it is NULL

i guess if its NULL then it failed right?

mightymart: well you'd get an error back when attempting to create the sub

specifically a decline for that customer

where this error code or message is stored exactly?

mightymart: https://stripe.com/docs/api/ruby#errors

you'll get an error response back from the API. you'd want to use some exception handling as shown there to display the error to your customer

helloo

stripe439: hellooooo :-)

i need to integrate my application to be able to take money from my customers credit cards

android applicaiton

stripe439: cool. are you a developer?

do i have to add any server side code ?

you do, yes

Is there a way to see the new orders vs payments on the email in a way that they dont look identical and will be easy for us to confirm which is which.

professional developer

stripe575: can you clarify the question a bit?

stripe439: cool. so yeah, you'd use the android library to create tokens

yes i do create tokens but when i try to charge the card an exception is catched

stripe439: then you'd send that token to your server from the app and use some server side code to use that token to create a charge or customer
