Of course, what is your webhook question?

[split plaza]

hello

I configure one endpoint

require_once('stripe-php/init.php');

    \Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey('sk_test_xxxxx');

    //include(get_template_directory().'/cpanel/stripe_secret_credential.php');

    // This is your Stripe CLI webhook secret for testing your endpoint locally.
    $endpoint_secret = 'xxxxxx';
    
    $payload = @file_get_contents('php://input');
    $sig_header = $_SERVER['HTTP_STRIPE_SIGNATURE'];
    $event = null;
    
    try {
      $event = \Stripe\Webhook::constructEvent(
        $payload, $sig_header, $endpoint_secret
      );

    } catch(\UnexpectedValueException $e) {
      // Invalid payload
      http_response_code(400);
      exit();

    } catch(\Stripe\Exception\SignatureVerificationException $e) {
      // Invalid signature
      http_response_code(400);
      exit();
    }
    
    // Handle the event
    switch ($event->type) {
      case 'invoice.payment_succeeded':
        $invoice = $event->data->object;
      // ... handle other event types
      default:
        echo 'Received unknown event type ' . $event->type;
        
       
    }
    
    http_response_code(200);

I use this code in my endpoint on y server, I need to put in this code one order my database update the client service date

in wich point I do this?

I working in testing mode now

[gloomy stream]

you do it inside the switch at the bottom

1/ get the event
2/ parse it
3/ based on the event type/content, action what you need to

[split plaza]

let me test

// Handle the event
switch ($event->type) {
case 'invoice.payment_succeeded':
$invoice = $event->data->object;
$to = '[e-mail]';
$subj = 'Webhook stripe here ! '.date('Y-m-d ss').'';
$body = 'This is the body of the email';
wp_mail( $to, $subj, $body );
//... handle other event types

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

like this ? I try to send an email after invoice is payment to test your advice

[gloomy stream]

For example yes. I wouldn't do this honestly, I'd have my own classes that can receive events and handle them async, so I wouldn't hardcode a lot of lines of code to send an email straight in the body of that function

I assume you're just testing/debugging though so it seems fine

[split plaza]

yes I try to test first, but not working for me

how long does the program usually take until the webhook works and sends me a notification ?

Is it immediate or does it take several minutes for the webbook to run?

?

[gloomy stream]

it depends

you can track all of this as the developer

add logs to your code, look at the server's logs/your code locally

look at our CLI program https://stripe.com/cli

the email step should only come after you've successfully received an event and parsed it

[split plaza]

I dont understad how can I do testing with your webhooks really

[gloomy stream]

What's blocking you? It's just code on your server, so you have code that listens to invoice.payment_succeeded for example, and then you make that event happen, for example by creating a Subscription and the event would be sent to your server

If you are testing locally, you would use our CLI tool (linked above) that can receive events on your computer adn forwards them to your server

you can also use tools like ngrok https://ngrok.com/ to get a unique temporary URL for your local code and then have Stripe send events to it

you can also use curl or any equivalent on the command line to send a raw POST request to your own code

[split plaza]

I want to test with my server, I try to but one success sale in test mode, all its good but the webhook not work for me

[gloomy stream]

I'm sorry, but you just say "not work for me" with no info, it's really hard to help you without detailed information

[split plaza]

I would not like to use cli but directly, make the successful purchase in and after the event does its job, I imagined it was that simple but as you can see I can't even send myself an email once the event happens. Excuse me I am completely lost in this of stripe webhooks with php

please could you guide me?

[gloomy stream]

Stripe has no way to talk to your own computer and send it webhooks, it's impossible. You need a tool that receives events from Stripe while you develop locally which is what the CLI (or ngrok) offer.

Otherwise you need to push the code to your server while you debug so that you can configure a real URL to your webhook endpoint

[split plaza]

I understand you and really thank your

for your explain

how can I install your cli ? in my server to listen events

[gloomy stream]

let's take a small step back. What are you calling "my server" exactly?

Do you have a host provider and you push your code online on your server? Or do you test locally on your computer with localhost?

[split plaza]

yes I have ssh

I have a hosting cloud server, and in this server I configure the enpoint like this: https://www.mydomain.com/stripe_webhook.php

I configure here https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/webhooks this endpoint with type: direct

[gloomy stream]

okay so you don't need the CLI at all in that case

[split plaza]

inside this https://www.mydomain.com/stripe_webhook.php I put the code this code 👆

[gloomy stream]

you add the right webhook endpoint to uyour account in Test mode and then you should see the requests come in

as the developer you can read the logs for your server, see all incoming and outgoing connections and debug this

[split plaza]

I receive this Response
400 ERR

[gloomy stream]

cool, so that means you have a PHP error somewhere, now you can read the PHP error log and debug!

[split plaza]

let me see

now work thank koopajah some issue with my server,

can I use this resend to test my endpoint?

or I need to use for some reason stripe CLI ?

[gloomy stream]

yes the button should work fine!

[split plaza]

thank you, so much for your help I develop now my webhook

[gloomy stream]

CONGRATS

this is huge, webhooks are not easy to grasp/debug so I'm really glad you're making real progress 🙂

[split plaza]

thanks to you dear friend

the logic was complicated to understand but then you can see that it is well raised

[gloomy stream]

yay!

[split plaza]

its really good

I can access to data quickly

Request
{
"id": "evt_1JiRbmHHulAmiNnDECGHg8eU",
"object": "event",
"api_version": "2020-08-27",
"created": 1633732326,
"data": {
"object": { ....

[gloomy stream]

yep webhooks are really powerful

[split plaza]

I need to differente one time payment to subscription

maybe you know if this "billing_reason": "subscription_create", when is one time payment what say ?

[gloomy stream]

not sure what that could mean

[split plaza]

yeah its magnific ! incredible to work with this . I will save a lot of time programming and integration analysis thanks to these webhooks

[gloomy stream]

what do you call "one-time payment"

[split plaza]

I have two types of services, some that are subscriptions (month to month) and others that are one-time payment services, and my database will enable each service in a different way, so I need some data in the response of the webhook that can differentiate this .

I think that when I receive the webhook then I will make my system work in these two ways with and without subscription.

[gloomy stream]

do you use Invoicing for one-time payments? Because if not you won't get invoice.paid for those

[split plaza]

you know

maybe another event

you are the boss

[gloomy stream]

payment_intent.succeeded is what you want in that case

[split plaza]

right !

I receive múltiple events y the same endpoint right?
