Stripe for Meteor
Load Stripe's javascript libraries on the client (optional) and server. Once client side libs are ready, the package will automatically configure the publishable key you pass in. You can also reactively check for the client side libs to be ready in an autorun.
Package includes:
Stripe.js (latest from CDN) Stripe Checkout (latest from CDN) Stripe for Node.js (v4.9.0)
Install
meteor add jeremy:stripeUsage
Client
Load Stripe.js and Stripe Checkout on the client:
// anywhere on client
ReactiveStripe.load("YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY");(See the Stripe docs for info about the publishable key)
Or only load the client libs on specific routes:
// Flow Router
FlowRouter.triggers.enter([ReactiveStripe.load("YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY")], {
only: ['route1', 'route2', 'checkout']
});// Iron Router
Router.onBeforeAction(function() {
ReactiveStripe.load("YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY");
this.next();
}, { only: ['route1', 'route2', 'checkout'] });Now you can use Stripe.js or Stripe Checkout in any of the ways outlined in the Stripe docs.
Helpers
Although you likely won't ever need it, there is a reactive helper method available to check if the client side libraries are loaded from Stripe's CDN. You could use it like this:
// check ReactiveStripe.loaded() before running Stripe code
Template.myTemplate.onRendered(function() {
this.autorun(() => {
if (ReactiveStripe.loaded()) {
// Stripey stuff goes here
}
});
});Server
The Stripe npm package is available anywhere on the server with the Stripe (async) or StripeSync (sync) globals.
First, initialize the server side library with your secret key:
const stripe = Stripe("YOUR_SECRET_KEY");
// or
const stripe = StripeSync("YOUR_SECRET_KEY");Then you can use any of the provided methods outlined in the extensive API docs. For example:
async
const stripe = Stripe("YOUR_SECRET_KEY");
stripe.customers.create({
email: 'customer@example.com'
},
function(err, customer) {
if (err) {
console.warn(err);
}
console.log(customer); // new customer object returned from Stripe
}
);sync
const stripe = StripeSync(key);
let customer;
try {
customer = stripe.customers.create({
email: 'customer@example.com'
});
} catch(e) {
console.error(e);
}
console.log(customer); // new customer object returned from Stripe
