Hi 👋

#

Can you share a webhook event ID?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:08 PM

#

sure
evt_1Lb50iIrXZ5Do56HKakVcTnN

#

switch ($event->type) {
  case 'checkout.session.completed':
      
    $c_isLive = $event -> livemode;

    $session = $event->data->object;

    $c_name = $session -> customer_details -> name;

    $c_paymentIntentID = $session -> payment_intent;

Only the isLive key does not work I assume I am selecting the wron JSON depth

#

Hmmm... when I review the event I see the livemode: false property as belonging to the data object.

#

Can you try that and let me know if you can successfully return the boolean value?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:13 PM

#

When I log the $c_isLive variable it is empty or something like " "

open cliff Aug 26, 2022, 4:17 PM

#

I am asking you to log the $event->data->livemode value and see if that contains a boolean

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:21 PM

#

Okay I tried that and it also returns nothing
and throws the error: Undefined property of Stripe\StripeObject instance: livemode

#

$event -> livemode
does not throw this error

#

open cliff Aug 26, 2022, 4:33 PM

#

Okay but when you attempt to echo the data->livemode property you don't get a boolean value?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:35 PM

#

open cliff Okay but when you attempt to `echo` the `data->livemode` property you don't get ...

Yes

$event -> livemode; | Returns nothing, no error
$event -> data -> livemode; | Returns nothing, error

open cliff Aug 26, 2022, 4:37 PM

That is pretty confusing. You can see the value right there in your screenshot.

// Handle the event
switch ($event->type) {
  case 'checkout.session.completed':
      
      $c_isLive = $event -> data -> livemode;
      $c_isLiveB = $event -> livemode;

      $session = $event->data->object;

    $c_name = $session -> customer_details -> name;

    $c_paymentIntentID = $session -> payment_intent;
    $c_email = $session -> customer_details -> email;
    //address
    $c_line1 = $session -> customer_details -> address -> line1;
    $c_line2 = $session -> customer_details -> address -> line2;
    $c_postal_code = $session -> customer_details -> address -> postal_code;
    $c_city = $session -> customer_details -> address -> city;
    $c_country = $session -> customer_details -> address -> country;

    echo "\n Livemode: " .  $c_isLive . " LiveModeB: " . $c_isLiveB;
    echo "\n The partyyy.app API succeesfully recieved data for customer: " . $c_email;

        break;

  default:
    echo 'Received unknown event type ' . $event->type;
}

#

You can see the echo result in Stripe (Event ID: evt_1Lb50iIrXZ5Do56HKakVcTnN)

open cliff Aug 26, 2022, 4:54 PM

#

And your first line in the echo statement is returning "Livemode: LivemodeB: "?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:54 PM

#

yes

open cliff Aug 26, 2022, 4:56 PM

#

And if you try one more level of depth $event->data->object->livemode what do you see?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 4:59 PM

#

open cliff And if you try one more level of depth `$event->data->object->livemode` what do ...

Returns nothing aswell and throws [26-Aug-2022 18:58:20 Europe/Berlin] Stripe Notice: Undefined property of Stripe\StripeObject instance: livemode

https://stripe.com/docs/api/events/object#event_object-livemode

#

the property is top level, you access it the exact same way you access type or id

#

You clearly have $event->type here, if that works then $event->livemode also will works

#

My guess is $event -> data -> livemode; crashes because the API Resource is a Checkout Session and it does not have livemode

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:06 PM

#

next magnet You clearly have `$event->type` here, if that works then `$event->livemode` also...

Thats what I thought aswell but somehow it does not

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:07 PM

Are you sure about that?
My event JSON has

"livemode": false,

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:12 PM

#

ah my bad, I was sure they didn't

#

Thats what I thought aswell but somehow it does not
I mean I'm sure it does. Just log both right before your switch and see what happens

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:19 PM

#

echo "\n direct livemove: " . $event -> livemode;

returns nothing
Still does not work

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:19 PM

#

what does "return nothing" mean though

#

it's a webhook endpoint, there's no return, there's nothing to echo

#

Can you share the beginning of your code where you deserialize the Event?

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:20 PM

#

next magnet what does "return nothing" mean though

The line produces exctly this " direct livemove: "
maybe there is a space as result but nothing else

#

what does this get you (to insert where you have the first line)

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:26 PM

#

Got Event: 'evt_1Lb50iIrXZ5Do56HKakVcTnN' with type: 'checkout.session.completed' and livemode: '' - that's all

#

I have an idea what could be wrong

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

ack good, thinking too, I've never seen this before. Testing locally to make sure I don't miss anything obvious

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:29 PM

#

stark slate I have an idea what could be wrong

I am always resending an old webhook, thought that could be the cause
Now I created a new purchase but the results are still the same.

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

okay I am seeing the same thing so I'm confused too now. This is becoming personal

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

😂

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:32 PM

#

$magicString = $event->livemode ? "this is live" : "this is test";
$msg = "Got Event: '" . $event_json->id . "' with type: '" . $event_json->type . "' and livemode: '" . $magicString . "' that's all.\n";```

#

okay that works for me

#

so it has to be something with the boolean concept

#

UGH

#

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4948663/php-get-bool-to-echo-false-when-false

Stack Overflow

PHP - Get bool to echo false when false

The following code doesn't print out anything:

$bool_val = (bool)false;
echo $bool_val;
But the following code prints 1:

$bool_val = (bool)true;
echo $bool_val;
Is there a better way to print 0...

#

Damn I had never realized this happened. I assume when I hit this I just added an if and forgot. I use PHP every day and I never saw this 🤦‍♂️

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:34 PM

#

I am considering my programming language choises aswell

next magnet Aug 26, 2022, 5:34 PM

#

lol

#

every language has its quirks I'll continue to live and die by PHP

#

I wish I had a way to search my past attempts in my life. Like I'm sure I hit this before and basically went "huh?" and moved on instead of digging

#

But overall, all is good in the world, and we don't have a problem with events not sending livemode: false which I started to be super worried about 😅

stark slate Aug 26, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

Somehow it is still returning nothing for me.
Well its already late in timezone, I will try to implement it again tomorrow with more sleep and get back to you

#

It was nice talking to you, thanks for the help!
