What do you mean by reset exactly?

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 6:51 PM

#

Due to the issues I describe here: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-firebase-extensions/issues/431

#

I thought the cleanest option would be to delete my products and manually readd them each time I restart the emulator

#

however, you can't delete test products if they have been used in a test transaction, you can only archive them

#

This is going to get very messy if I can't reset the environment

pine harbor Aug 26, 2022, 6:54 PM

#

Yeah that's not possible unfortunately

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

So you archive every test product transaction permanently ?

pine harbor Aug 26, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

Yes. If it's been used, then archiving is the only option.

#

Seems odd

#

I'm really unsure how one is supposed to develop with the Stripe Extension utilizing the Emulator then

#

You restart the emulator or it crashes and all of a sudden your firestore database is completly out of sync with Stripe and there is no way to resync it

#

Yeah I'm not as familiar with the stripe-firebase-extensions, so not sure what the recommended path is for this. Let me check with a colleague and see if they have a suggestion.

#

One thing you could do is export data and then import when you restart the emulator

#

https://firebase.google.com/docs/emulator-suite/install_and_configure#export_and_import_emulator_data

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 7:17 PM

#

Yes, except that if the emulator crashes or if I want to load different data for different tests, its hard to keep the Stripe data seperate

pine harbor Aug 26, 2022, 7:19 PM

#

Yeah that's the tricky thing with the firebase emulator

#

I think you'll have to wait for a response on that github issue

#

I'll flag to someone internally and see if someone can get eyes on it

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 7:20 PM

#

It almost seems like it would have been better not to use the extension

pine harbor Aug 26, 2022, 7:26 PM

#

Sorry about this. I flagged it internally, so hopefully someone does eventually get around to looking into the issue

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 7:40 PM

#

thx

#

Another option could be to just not use the extension at all and implement your own Firebase functions

merry jetty Aug 26, 2022, 7:54 PM

#

As in utilize the API an create a cloud function that did all of the necessary calls to support the Firebase extension?

#

The challenging thing is, I looked at the official Stripe API, and it would be fairly complex to build all of the required calls. On top of that, for whatever reason the structure of the items within the Firestore doesn't align with the Stripe API
