Welcome to the Stripe API Integration Tester Template! This template is designed to help you test Stripe API integrations with ease. It provides a web-based interface where you can input your Stripe API secret and optionally a customer ID to run a series of tests, such as adding a card to a customer and creating a charge. This step-by-step guide will walk you through using the template on the Lazy platform.
To begin using this template, simply click on "Start with this Template" on the Lazy platform. This will pre-populate the code in the Lazy Builder interface, so you won't need to copy, paste, or delete any code.
Before you can test the Stripe API, you'll need to set up an environment secret for the test customer ID. Here's how to do it:
TEST_CUSTOMER_ID
and paste the customer ID as the value.Once you have set up the environment secret, press the "Test" button on the Lazy platform. This will begin the deployment of the app and launch the Lazy CLI.
After pressing the "Test" button, the Lazy App's CLI interface will appear, prompting you to provide the Stripe API secret. You can obtain your API secret key from your Stripe dashboard under the "Developers" section. Copy the secret key and paste it into the CLI when prompted.
After providing the necessary input, Lazy will print a dedicated server link for you to use the API. Navigate to this link in your web browser to access the Stripe API Integration Tester interface.
Here's how to use the interface:
If you wish to integrate this testing functionality into another service or frontend, you can use the provided endpoints and JavaScript code. For example, you can send a POST request to the /update_info
endpoint with the API secret and customer ID to run the tests programmatically.
Here's a sample request you might use:
POST /update_info
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
apiSecret=your_stripe_api_secret&customerId=optional_customer_id
And a sample response could look like this:
{
"CardAdded": true,
"ChargeCreated": true,
"CustomerDetailsRetrieved": true
}
Remember to replace your_stripe_api_secret
with your actual Stripe API secret and optional_customer_id
with the customer ID you wish to test with, if any.
By following these steps, you can easily test and integrate Stripe API functionality using the Lazy platform.
