Hi

#

I know

#

and we are developers

#

so I request help from you

hallow pike Jul 11, 2024, 3:35 PM

#

What's your question

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 3:35 PM

#

Of course we respond

#

we have like 2 weeks facing the same issues

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:36 PM

#

Hi there. I m the developer that have a problem.

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 3:36 PM

#

with conflicts between Stripe Tap payments and Stripe SDK

#

we have even installed all the libraries from zero 5 times

#

and did not solve the issue

#

we can send you screenshots

#

tell you the versions of the libraries and sdk we are using so on..

#

@ashen cloak is here to ask the questions

#

and tell you the issues we have

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:38 PM

#

We have a React native app, and we try to implement Tap/Pay function. But after we install Stripe SDK, as the Documentation say, the App becomes corupt, and stop functioning

#

Our React-native Version: "react-native": "^0.70.0",

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 3:41 PM

Seeing similar issue here: https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/issues/1984

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:52 PM

The error points to this file, that looks a bit weird. Somehow a lot of code is commented. But this happend only after running: npm install @stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:54 PM

hallow pike Seeing similar issue here: https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/issues/...

I have read some forums too on git and stackoverflow, but i was unable to find any solution that works for our app

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 3:56 PM

#

I'm looking but I don't really think this is related to the Stripe library

#

But give me a min

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:57 PM

#

Maybe not directly, but this happend only after: npm install @stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 3:57 PM

#

I'll try and repro that, but in the meantime you already removed the library, deleted your node modules and reinstalled, and cleaned your build?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:58 PM

#

Many times.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 3:58 PM

#

Alright well give me a minute to see if I can reproduce this behavior as well

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 3:59 PM

#

Ok, let me know if you need any more infos

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:10 PM

#

Going to take a few mins as building a fresh project. That said, I assume you have other libraries in your project as well?

#

Basically it is possible that the @stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native library didn't play nicely with some other library that you have.

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:15 PM

#

silver nebula Going to take a few mins as building a fresh project. That said, I assume you ha...

Take your time we are here.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:16 PM

#

Can you show me your package.json?

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:16 PM

#

silver nebula Basically it is possible that the `@stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native` library...

If we need to replace even remove another library we can do that too.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:17 PM

#

Yeah I mean if there is library conflict then you will only be able to figure that out on your side. You would need to add or remove libraries one by one

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

📎 message.txt

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

@ashen cloak will provide you with the package json

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

This is our package.json

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

lol okay you have a ton of dependencies...

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:19 PM

#

I tried now using npx npm-check-updates to update all to the newer version. But this will create even more conflicts i assume.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:19 PM

#

Yeah I would absolutely not do that

#

But that is why you have your react-native version at 0.74.3 I assume

#

Whereas previously you said you were on 0.70.0?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:20 PM

#

I mean, i tried a lot, maybe this way i update the pachage that conflicts with stripe and point to the problem

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:20 PM

#

silver nebula But that is why you have your react-native version at `0.74.3` I assume

Right

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:20 PM

#

The first step really is to create a fresh project and add just the two Stripe packages and make sure that the project successfully builds with your environment

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:21 PM

#

Let me clone the Repo again, install the packages and make you a short video with after installing Stripe. Would that help you?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:22 PM

#

No I don't really need a video

#

The reality is that your project is crashing and you are going to have to figure out why since I can't replicate your project/environment exactly. I'll try my best to help and see if there actually is some inherent bug with either of our libraries but I would assume that isn't the case since we have sample projects that you can see within the repo itself.

#

My recommendation is the above, first create a fresh project and just install the Stripe libraries

#

And see if it will build or if you hit the same error

#

That would be the first step in ruling things out for what is going on

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:27 PM

#

I m sure this will work on a fresh project. But i hoped you can tell me with what other package does Stripe has a conflict. Because the app is working before installing Stripe.

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:28 PM

#

ashen cloak I m sure this will work on a fresh project. But i hoped you can tell me with wha...

That’s a good question

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:29 PM

#

I am not currently aware of the library having a conflict with any other library. That doesn't at all mean that there are no other conflicts, but it isn't possible for us to test out libraries compatibility with other libraries. In general, if a widely-used library is found to be incompatible with our library then we would try to patch ours to make them compatible, if that is possible. However at the moment I'm not aware of any open bug reports for library incompatibility. Which goes back to what I said before -- if you want to figure that out, you are going to have to narrow down the libraries you use one by one to figure out which one(s) cause this crash

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:34 PM

#

The problem with your solution is even if i start removing, i m not sure this will point to the problem. Like i said, after installing Stripe, even if i remove it, the node-modules are corrupt. So i can‘t really test much.

#

Anyway, i will keep trying. How can i contact you in the future if i found something out and need your help?

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:35 PM

#

silver nebula I am not currently aware of the library having a conflict with any other library...

How can we eliminate each one of them but not stripe and have the stripe working without being corrupted please?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 4:35 PM

#

I believe it would be more productive to keep contact instead opening a new thread each time and speak with different people.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:36 PM

#

If you want a constant thread then you would need to contact us through Support via https://support.stripe.com/contact/login and we will assist you over email. Otherwise, on this server, it will always be on a thread-by-thread basis as threads get closed after a short time period of inactivity.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:36 PM

#

gusty hinge How can we eliminate each one of them but not stripe and have the stripe working...

You build a fresh project and add the Stripe libraries and then add your other dependencies one by one

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:38 PM

#

Does stripe listed official integration partners have a higher priority in the tickets and discord support because we are one of them and we are bringing clients to stripe as well?

#

@silver nebula

#

So helping us fixing the issue is ill generate more clients for stripe platform too

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:39 PM

#

Not that I'm aware of. My team doesn't work with any particular accounts -- we help all developers. If you have a point of contact within Stripe already then you may want to reach out to them. Otherwise, doing the above and clearly explaining your issue will get you to my team and we will help best we can.

#

The other thing you can do is post an Issue on the Github repo and you may get a response there from our Engineers who maintain those repos

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:40 PM

#

We already use stripe connect and stripe terminal on the web and we need to use stripe tap and pay on the mobile for our users

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:40 PM

#

silver nebula The other thing you can do is post an Issue on the Github repo and you may get a...

If there is an issue

#

However you have not been able to tell us if there is an issue or not

#

So we will start trying test try and error with all the libraries one by one

#

We don’t want to delay

#

If you know what I mean

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:41 PM

#

Yep my own build is still slowly moving along. I'll make sure my own project works with the Stripe libraries

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:41 PM

#

We tried since JAN this year to implement it when you first released official this capability

#

Then took a break

#

Now trying again

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:42 PM

#

To be clear, it is still in beta so this isn't unexpected that there are going to be bumps.

#

But yes, I do understand you want to move as quickly as possible

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:42 PM

#

Yeah

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 4:42 PM

#

silver nebula Yep my own build is still slowly moving along. I'll make sure my own project wor...

After that can you send over the json from your side please?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 4:43 PM

#

Sure

fleet heathBOT Jul 11, 2024, 5:15 PM

#

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 5:16 PM

#

Welcome @shadow heath

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:03 PM

#

Okay @gusty hinge and @ashen cloak sorry for the delay, got pulled away by some other stuff but now I have a successful build with both libraries installed

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:04 PM

#

Ok. Can you give us the version?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:05 PM

#

I did have to work around a couple errors due to having both libraries -- ran into https://github.com/stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native/issues/653 which a fix was just deployed for (see: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native/pull/754) but you need to make that modification yourself as that hasn't been deployed yet. Then also ran into needing to set packagingOptions liked discussed here: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native/issues/477 and I do think that was result of having both Stripe libraries

#

My package.json is simply:

{
  "name": "discordTestProj",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "android": "react-native run-android",
    "ios": "react-native run-ios",
    "lint": "eslint .",
    "start": "react-native start",
    "test": "jest"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@stripe/stripe-react-native": "^0.38.1",
    "@stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native": "^0.0.1-beta.19",
    "react": "18.2.0",
    "react-native": "0.74.3"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@babel/core": "^7.20.0",
    "@babel/preset-env": "^7.20.0",
    "@babel/runtime": "^7.20.0",
    "@react-native/babel-preset": "0.74.85",
    "@react-native/eslint-config": "0.74.85",
    "@react-native/metro-config": "0.74.85",
    "@react-native/typescript-config": "0.74.85",
    "@types/react": "^18.2.6",
    "@types/react-test-renderer": "^18.0.0",
    "babel-jest": "^29.6.3",
    "eslint": "^8.19.0",
    "jest": "^29.6.3",
    "prettier": "2.8.8",
    "react-test-renderer": "18.2.0",
    "typescript": "5.0.4"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": ">=18"
  }
}

#

And as noted above I added packagingOptions { resources { excludes += 'org/bouncycastle/x509/CertPathReviewerMessages*' } } to my app/build.gradle

#

And added android.jetifier.ignorelist=jackson-core to my gradle.properties

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:08 PM

#

What exactly are the 2 library you are talking about?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:08 PM

#

    "@stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native": "^0.0.1-beta.19",```

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

Ohh, ok. So you think this was the reason we had that problem?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

Think what was the reason?

#

The issues I ran into above?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:12 PM

#

Let me rephrase. You tried to reproduce the behaviour we told you about. And the reason why we had that problem is…?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:12 PM

#

Let me call requestNeededAndroidPermissions real quick to make sure it doesn't crash -- that is what you said crashed your app initially, correct?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:15 PM

#

That right. But like i said, the app can’t be opened again even if i undo everything related to Stripe.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:15 PM

#

Yeah works fine:

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:16 PM

#

Removing the function, and Stripe library.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

Right but my test indicates that the problem is likely the overlap with some other dependency in your project.

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

We are not saying that Stripe is not working, we are saying that Stripe is making our App to crash.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:18 PM

#

Yeah but unfortunately that isn't something we control from our side at all.

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:19 PM

#

So in order to test if Stripe is compatible with other libraries, you could now add our package.json file to your project, and see if are conflicts. The way you did it, it‘s not really an accurate reproduction.

#

Because if Stripe is not compatible with another dependency, you need to inform the other Developers, and spare them the time and costs.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:22 PM

#

Doesn't really work like that. My environment very well may not be set up to work with your dependencies -- I can't just drop a package.json into an app and expect it to work. You need to install them within your environment and test each one as you install.

I don't disagree that if two libraries are not compatible then there should be work done towards making them compatible, but as I said already, we aren't currently aware of any library incompatibility.

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:26 PM

#

Ok. In this case i have to do so, and send you the result. If so, Stripe should do something about this. Right?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:26 PM

#

If you can isolate a dependency conflict and we can reproduce it then yes we will report it internally (or you can file an Issue on our github repo) and our Engineers will look into fixing it.

#

Can you give me your non-upgraded package.json

#

I'll see what happens on my end

#

Just to see if I can actually repro or if I get other errors due to environment

#

I am very doubtful I will be able to recreate what you are seeing, but no harm in trying I suppose

gusty hinge Jul 11, 2024, 6:30 PM

#

Can you guys send over your json file?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:31 PM

#

Ok. I will create new project and install stripe. After that i will add dependecy one by one. And send you the dependency Stripe conflicts.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:31 PM

#

My environment is not setup to run 0.70.0 but I'll see if I can run your dependencies on 0.74.3

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:31 PM

#

ashen cloak Ok. I will create new project and install stripe. After that i will add dependec...

Yes do that, but also send me your package.json -- the one above was after you attempted to update all your dependecies

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:34 PM

#

📎 message.txt

#

This is package.json known working without Stripe. The moment i add Stripe, the App stoped working

#

I mean you could just paste it your new App and try installing the dependecies.

#

i mena only the dependecis. I belive this should work just fine.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:39 PM

#

Right that's what I'm doing but it doesn't just work because my environment isn't set up to run these versions. That's what I've been trying to say.

#

Also I'm pretty confused how your project was even building before

#

There are all sorts of version incompatibility with this

#

Like: pm ERR! Found: react@18.1.0 npm ERR! node_modules/react npm ERR! react@"18.1.0" from the root project npm ERR! peer react@"*" from native-base@3.4.28 npm ERR! node_modules/native-base npm ERR! native-base@"^3.4.28" from the root project npm ERR! npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency: npm ERR! peer react@"^18.3.1" from react-dom@18.3.1 npm ERR! node_modules/react-dom npm ERR! peer react-dom@"*" from native-base@3.4.28 npm ERR! node_modules/native-base npm ERR! native-base@"^3.4.28" from the root project

#

And: While resolving: discordTestProj@0.0.1 npm ERR! Found: react@18.1.0 npm ERR! node_modules/react npm ERR! react@"18.1.0" from the root project npm ERR! npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency: npm ERR! peer react@"^16.0" from @react-native-community/image-editor@2.3.0 npm ERR! node_modules/@react-native-community/image-editor npm ERR! @react-native-community/image-editor@"^2.3.0" from the root project

#

Those are two examples of your library versions in your dependencies that conflict

#

Anyways, at this point I have to step away

#

I do think the best path forward is as we discussed -- add dependencies one by one to your fresh project

#

That is the best way to narrow down the culprit here

#

I know it sucks, but really it is the only path forward

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:42 PM

#

Can you try npm install —legacy-peer-deps

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:43 PM

#

Is that how you have been building the whole time?

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:44 PM

#

Yep, because the app is built a long time ago, and if we update the dependency, we would run into a lot of problems.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:44 PM

#

😅

#

That is likely exactly why you ran into the current problem

fleet heathBOT Jul 11, 2024, 6:45 PM

#

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:45 PM

#

So Stripe can’t be implemented only in newer Apps? This should still work.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

You can't just yolo add libraries without their necessary peer dependencies being satisfied and expect them to not have conflicts...

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:48 PM

#

So what do you suggest we should do?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:53 PM

#

You should do what we discussed previously. You would build a fresh app and resolve your dependency conflicts along the way to make sure everything is compatible. If there is a maintained library (not a deprecated one) that is not compatible with the Stripe libraries, then you should let us know about that so we can help either fix that issue from our side or figure out a workaround.

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:56 PM

#

Hmm, ok. Let me speak with my CEO about this and see if he is also ok with this. Could you let this thread open until tomorrow?

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:56 PM

#

K for fun trying to build your exact app with dependencies and ignoring peers

#

Will likely crash

#

Due to my local environment

#

But we'll see

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:56 PM

#

Probably

#

But we are at the point where we try everything 😄

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

ashen cloak Hmm, ok. Let me speak with my CEO about this and see if he is also ok with this....

No threads get closed but you can always post again via #help and someone on my team will be around to help (we are here 24/5)

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 6:58 PM

#

The problem with that is that i feel like you already know the issue and you are able to help us better

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 7:00 PM

#

Honestly there isn't anything else we can do for you really without more information from your end about the specific dependencies that are conflicting

ashen cloak Jul 11, 2024, 7:01 PM

#

Ok. Let me do what i said and give you infos.

silver nebula Jul 11, 2024, 7:01 PM

#

Sounds good

#

Yeah I think some necessary peer deps got skipped which is making my build fail

#

     Searched in the following locations:
