NAME

Business::Stripe - Interface for Stripe payment system.

SYNOPSIS

my $stripe = Business::Stripe->new(
   -api_key => 'c6EiNIusHip8x5hkdIjtur7KNUA3TTpE'
);

$stripe->charges_create(
    amount => 400,
    card => 'tok_5EuIyKyCTc0f2V',
    description => 'Ice cream'
) and return $stripe->success;

print $stripe->error->{message}, "\n";

DESCRIPTION

Provides common bindings for Stripe payment system. Any API calls that do not have bindings can be access through the generic api method.

Methods

new ({options})

Requires -api_key given to you as part of your Stripe account. Optional -url can override default:

https://api.stripe.com/v1/

api (method, path, params,...)

Generic function that sends requests to Stripe. Check Stripe API Reference https://stripe.com/docs/api for specific calls.

Assuming you're not using Stripe.js to generate a token given the card information, you can do that using this call:

my $token = $stripe->api('post', 'tokens', 
    'card[number]' => '4242424242424242',
    'card[exp_month]' => 12,
    'card[exp_year]' => 2012,
    'card[cvc]' => 123,
    'currency' => 'usd'
);

Let's create a new plan to subscribe the customer to:

$stripe->api('post', 'plans',
    amount => 500,
    id => 'cone',
    currency => 'usd',
    interval => 'month',
    name => 'The cone plan'
);

Now, let's create a customer object with the above token and subscribe the customer to our monthly $5 ice cream cone plan:

my $customer = $stripe->api('post', 'customers',
    card => $token,
    email => 'paul@example.com',
    description => 'Ice creamer',
    plan => 'cone'
);

Customer wants to cancel the subscription:

 $stripe->api('delete', "customers/$customer/subscription");

path

Either charges, events, invoices, events/{ID}, etc. Check API doc for complete list.

All actions can be performed by using only this method. The two set of functions charges and customers provided in this package are made available for functions that are used frequently in common implementations.

Method returns 0 when encounter error conditions. The JSON object returned by Stripe can be retrieved via this method.

print $stripe->error->{message}, "\n";

success (void)

When calls are successful a positive value is returned or if possible, the ID. Stripe's JSON object can be retrieved via this method. Specific values are defined in the Stripe API Documentation.

print $stripe->success->{data}->[0]->{description}, "\n";
