Get Products with Prices using Stripe API

Introduction to the Stripe Products and Prices Template
Welcome to the Stripe Products and Prices template! This template is designed to help you create an application that fetches and displays a list of products and their prices using the Stripe API. It's built with Flask, a lightweight web framework for Python, making it easy to deploy and manage. This guide will walk you through the steps to get this template up and running on the Lazy platform.
Clicking Start with this Template
To begin using this template, simply click on the "Start with this Template" button. This will initialize the template in the Lazy Builder interface, pre-populating the code so you can start customizing and deploying your application without any hassle.
Initial Setup: Adding Environment Secrets
Before you can test and use the application, you need to set up an environment secret for the Stripe API key. Here's how to do it:
- Log in to your Stripe account and navigate to the Developers section.
- Under the API keys tab, you'll find your publishable and secret keys. Copy the secret key.
- Go to the Environment Secrets tab within the Lazy Builder.
- Create a new secret with the key as
STRIPE_API_KEY
and paste your Stripe secret key as the value.
This secret key is crucial for the application to interact with Stripe's services securely.
Test: Pressing the Test Button
Once you have set up your environment secret, you can proceed to test the application. Press the "Test" button to begin the deployment process. The Lazy platform will handle the deployment, and you won't need to worry about installing libraries or setting up the environment.
Using the App
After pressing the "Test" button, the Lazy platform will deploy your app and provide you with a dedicated server link. Use this link to access the web interface of your application. The interface will display a list of Stripe products and their prices, fetched directly from your Stripe account via the API.
Integrating the App
If you wish to integrate this application into another service or frontend, you can use the server link provided by Lazy. For example, you could embed the link in an iframe on your website to display the Stripe products list directly to your users.
Additionally, if you need to make API calls to the '/list_products' endpoint from another application, you can use the server link followed by the endpoint path. Here's a sample request you might use:
GET [Your Server Link]/list_products
And a sample response you might receive:
[
{
"name": "Product 1",
"price": "10.00 USD"
},
{
"name": "Product 2",
"price": "15.00 USD"
}
// ... more products
]
Remember to replace "[Your Server Link]" with the actual link provided by the Lazy platform.
By following these steps, you should now have a fully functional application that lists Stripe products and prices. You can further customize the code or integrate it with other services as needed for your project.
