Integration
Integration on Laravel 4 is straightforward.
Set the Service Provider and Facade alias
After installing the package, open your Laravel config file located at app/config/app.php
and add the following lines.
In the $providers
array add the following service provider for this package.
'Cartalyst\Stripe\Laravel\StripeServiceProvider',
In the $aliases
array add the following facade for this package.
'Stripe' => 'Cartalyst\Stripe\Laravel\Facades\Stripe',
Set the Api Key
Now you need to setup the Stripe API key, to do this open or create the app/config/services.php
file, and add or update the 'stripe'
array:
<?php
return [
'stripe' => [
'secret' => 'your-stripe-key-here',
],
];
Set the Api Version (optional)
This step is not necessary, but in case you need to use a previous version of Stripe you can do same process as above and add a 'version'
key on the array:
<?php
return [
'stripe' => [
'secret' => 'your-stripe-key-here',
'version' => '2015-01-11',
],
];
Usage
For usage, please refer to the Cartalyst Stripe package documentation, located here.
Just use the Laravel facade alias Stripe::
instead of the native call $stripe->
.
