How to add a new customer on stripe in php

The Stripe API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable, resource-oriented URLs, and uses HTTP response codes to indicate API errors. We use built-in HTTP features, like HTTP authentication and HTTP verbs, which are understood by off-the-shelf HTTP clients. We support cross-origin resource sharing, allowing you to interact securely with our API from a client-side web application (though you should never expose your secret API key in any public website's client-side code). JSON is returned by all API responses, including errors, although our API libraries convert responses to appropriate language-specific objects.




Before create any payment request we have to create a customer on stripe. Stripe payment works with customer id. So it is necessary to create customer.
There are several way to create a customer in diff languages. Here it is.
To add a customer a token is must thing. We discuss about generate token in last article.
Now we are assuming that you have already a stripe token.

Note : You can use a token only once.

PHP

PHP is well known and popular server side scripting language.
First download PHP sdk of Stripe. Then use these functions.

Definition
 \Stripe\Customer::create();  

Example Request
 \Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2");  
 \Stripe\Customer::create(array(  
  "description" => "Customer for olivia.harris@example.com",  
  "source" => "tok_189gId2eZvKYlo2CVQiI7nZG" // obtained with Stripe.js  
 ));  

Here source is generated token.

CURL

You can also create a customer using curl:
Definition 
 POST https://api.stripe.com/v1/customers 
Example Request
 $ curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/customers \  
   -u sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2: \  
   -d description="Customer for emma.garcia@example.com" \  
   -d source=tok_189gId2eZvKYlo2CVQiI7nZG  

PYTHON

Stripe also provide a library for python developers.
 Definition
 stripe.Customer.create()  
Example Request
 import stripe  
 stripe.api_key = "sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2"  
 stripe.Customer.create(  
  description="Customer for william.anderson@example.com",  
  source="tok_189gId2eZvKYlo2CVQiI7nZG" # obtained with Stripe.js  
 )

Day 9 - Challenge 1 - Product of Array Except Self

Solving the "Product of Array Except Self" Problem in JavaScript Are you ready to dive into a common coding challenge that not only tests your programming skills but also sharpens your problem-solving mindset? If you're up for the challenge, let's tackle the "Product of Array Except Self" problem together using JavaScript. This problem requires us to return an array where each element at index i is the product of all the elements in the original array except the one at index i . Understanding the Problem:   Imagine you're given an array of integers, let's call it nums . Your task is to create a new array where the value at index i in this new array is the product of all the elements in nums , except the one at index i . In other words, you're calculating the product of all the elements to the left of nums[i] and the product of all the elements to the right of nums[i] , and then multiplying these two products to get the final value at index i ...

Day 9 - Challenge 2 - Reverse Linked List

Reversing a Singly Linked List in JavaScript: An In-Place Approach Introduction:   Singly linked lists are fundamental data structures in computer science that consist of a sequence of nodes, each containing data and a reference to the next node in the list. Reversing a singly linked list is a classic problem that challenges programmers to manipulate pointers effectively to achieve the desired outcome. In this blog post, we'll explore the problem of reversing a singly linked list using an in-place approach and provide a step-by-step solution in JavaScript. Problem Statement:   Given the head of a singly linked list, our task is to reverse the list in-place and return its new head. In other words, we need to modify the pointers of the nodes in such a way that the direction of the linked list is reversed. Solution Approach:   To solve this problem, we will iterate through the linked list while maintaining three pointers: previous , current , and next . The previous pointer...

Day 8 - Challenge 2 - Move Zeroes to the End

Moving Zeroes to the End: A JavaScript Solution Introduction:   When working with arrays, there are often times when we need to manipulate their elements to achieve a specific goal. One common problem is moving all zeroes to the end of an array while keeping the order of non-zero elements unchanged. In this blog post, we will explore an elegant solution to this problem using JavaScript. We'll discuss the problem statement, the approach we'll take, and provide a step-by-step guide to implementing the solution. The Problem:   Given an array of integers, the task is to move all zeroes to the end of the array while maintaining the relative order of the non-zero elements. This means that after rearranging the array, all the zeroes should be at the end, and the order of the non-zero elements should remain the same. The Approach:   To solve this problem, we can utilize a two-pointer approach. We'll maintain two pointers, one for iterating through the array and another for keepin...
