i have a file 'authservice.js' without stripe imports that has a function:
const registerUser = async (user, additionalData = {}) => {
const newUser = await createUser(newUserData, false, true);
newUserId = newUser._id;
if (emailEnabled && !newUser.emailVerified) {
await sendVerificationEmail({
_id: newUserId,
email,
name,
});
} else {
await updateUser(newUserId, { emailVerified: true });
}
return { status: 200, message: genericVerificationMessage };
} catch (err) {
logger.error('[registerUser] Error in registering user:', err);
this calls createuser function in usermethods.js file:
hrows {Error} If a user with the same user_id already exists.
*/
const createUser = async (data, disableTTL = true, returnUser = false) => {
const userData = {
...data,
expiresAt: disableTTL ? null : new Date(Date.now() + 604800 * 1000), // 1 week in milliseconds
};
if (disableTTL) {
delete userData.expiresAt;
}
try {
// Create a new customer in Stripe
const stripeCustomer = await stripe.customers.create({
email: data.email,
name: data.name,
});
// Add the Stripe customer ID to the user data
userData.stripeCustomerId = stripeCustomer.id;
const user = await User.create(userData);
// Intialize message balance for the new user
const messageBalance = new MessageBalance({
user: user._id,
messageCredits: 10,
});
await messageBalance.save();
if (returnUser) {
return user.toObject();
}
return user._id;
} catch (error) {
throw new Error('Error creating user: ' + error.message);
}
};
i get this error in deployment when registering user on railway
it works perfectly in local
wide kestrel
hello! is it the stripe.customers.create line that is throwing this error? It's not immediately clear from that error message which line is causing this error
low compass
hello!
it should be stripe.customers.create since that's the only thing related to stripe
i have imported api test key from env in usermethods.js which has function createuser which uses stripe.customer.create
however the error is thrown by the authservice.js (error: [registerUser]) which has the registeruser function which calls createuser function
hello?
wide kestrel
hrm, can you add some log lines before and after? i.e. print stripe just before that call and log stripeCustomer after that function to confirm?
low compass
okay ill try that
// Create a new customer in Stripe
logger.info('Stripe object before creating customer:', stripe);
const stripeCustomer = await stripe.customers.create({
email: data.email,
name: data.name,
});
logger.info('Stripe customer created:', stripeCustomer);
// Add the Stripe customer ID to the user data
userData.stripeCustomerId = stripeCustomer.id;
const user = await User.create(userData);
i did this, and nothing came out... 2024-08-22T05:57:28.403Z info: Stripe object before creating customer:
2024-08-22T05:57:29.240Z info: Stripe customer created:
wide kestrel
how did you initialize stripe? can you share the snippet? remember to redact the secret key
low compass
as in intialisation like this?:
const Stripe = require('stripe');
const stripe = Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
sorry i'm a complete noob
wide kestrel
yep, so if you log process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY before const stripe = Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY); and then log stripe after. Do both have values when logged?
low compass
yep they both exist
wide kestrel
You can try initializing stripe i.e. const stripe = Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY); just before stripe.customers.create just as another test to see if it works
if that works, then i think then the next step here you would need to check is why the stripe object you're using to create a Customer object has no value then. I have no context on how your code is passing or handling the stripe object across files or functions.
low compass
here are the files
well the thing is it works locally and not on railway upon deployment
wide kestrel
did you do the logging in local or after deployment?
low compass
local now
wide kestrel
there's no point in logging in local right? The problem is in deployment
low compass
😅 yea...
wide kestrel
you'll want to add additional logs to deployment to figure out what's going on
low compass
okay ill do that now
sorry please bear with me, i'm getting some problems in deployment
wide kestrel
sure, no worries
low compass
thanks for hanging on
deploy logs do indeed output stripe key and object, hopefully from usermethods.js:
console.log('Stripe Secret Key:', process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
const stripe = Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
const { logger } = require('~/config');
console.log('Stripe Object:', stripe);
im trying to get my deployment to work in order to see the function calling error but i get application not found errors so i have to fix that.
wide kestrel
i would clearly indicate which file you're logging those details from to be certain
low compass
okay ill try that
okay outside the function createuser,
const bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');
const signPayload = require('~/server/services/signPayload');
const User = require('./User');
const Stripe = require('stripe');
console.log('Stripe Secret Key(Usermethod.js const):', process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
const stripe = Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY);
const { logger } = require('~/config');
console.log('Stripe Object(Usermethod.js const):', stripe);
const MessageBalance = require('./messageBalance');
deploy logs show:
Stripe Secret Key(Usermethod.js const): undefined
Stripe Object(Usermethod.js const): <ref *1> {
_platformFunctions: NodePlatformFunctions {
_fetchFn: null,
_agent: null,
_exec: [Function: exec],
_UNAME_CACHE: null
},
VERSION: '16.4.0',
on: [Function: bound addListener],
once: [Function: bound once],......
low compass
also my deployment is a docker image from github container btw
wide kestrel
well, if your stripe secret key is undefined, then you need to debug why
low compass
i have environment variables set on the railway config
wide kestrel
I'm not familiar with railway and there's very little that I can do here to help, maybe you'll want to check in with the railway community instead?
low compass
yea i did
could there be anything else that could cause the api key not to pass in within the code though?
wide kestrel
it's really something that is very specific to your own integration or setup. It could be anything from something not being cached properly to some file not being deployed properly
low compass
okay i understand
would you suggest a systematic way to debug this problem?
its bothering me for at least 24 hours...
wide kestrel
sorry, but I'm all out of ideas here
