Some common operations we were doing with the stripe module.

How to use

npm install --save stripetools

then in your file

const stripetools = require('stripetools')('<PUT STRIPE KEY HERE>');

getBetweenDates

Use to get results from stripe based on dates

Params

• resource : the name of the stripe resource you want to call. Eg 'charges' or 'applicationFees'
• startDate (format 'YYYY-MM-DD) the earliest date the results should be from
• endDate (format 'YYYY-MM-DD) the lastest date the results should be from

eg find all charges in March:

const marchCharges = await stripetools.getBetweenDates({
    resource : 'charges',
    startDate : '2018-03-01',
    endDate : '2018-03-31
})

populateStripeResource

Use to populate one stripe resource on to another

Params

• collection : the collection to loop through and resolve from
• targetResource : the target resource you want to pull onto this collection
• foreignKey : the field used to look on stripe to find the target resource
• as = targetResource : what field should the results be saved on to (defaults to targetResource name)

eg populate all charges onto applicationFees using orginating_transaction

//assume you have an array of applicationFees already
const feesAndCharges = await stripetools.populateStripeResource({
    collection : applicationFees,
    targetResource : 'charges',
    foreignKey : 'originating_charge',
    as : 'chargeObject'
})

safeRefund

refund a charge, but only if the account it is being refunded from has enough balance to cover it

Params

• chargeId
• amount : amount to refund (defaults to full amount)
• refundApplicationFee : refund the applicationFee (defaults to true)
• reverseTransfer = reverse the associatedTransfer (defaults to true)

eg refund a charge

await stripetools.refund('<charge ID here>');

multiList

When getting all elements of a resource on stripe we have to take it at a maximum 100 items at a time. Use this method to specify a larger limit and the limit at each step

Params

• resource : the resource we want to get
• customLimit : the max number of items we want to return (default is 500)
• stripeArgs = { limit : 100 } number of elements to grab in each step, default and maximum is 100
