How to describe line items in Stripe checkout?-CodePudding

This is the way how I create checkout function:

foreach($request->arrayOfObjects as $req) {
    array_push($lineItems, [
        'price' => $req['priceID'],
        'quantity' => (int) $req['quantity']
    ]);
}
    
if (Auth::check()) {
    $charge = $stripeClient->checkout->sessions->create([
        'payment_method_types' => [
            'card',
            'sepa_debit',
            'giropay',
            'sofort',
            'alipay'
        ],
        'success_url' => env('APP_URL').'/success',
        'cancel_url' => env('APP_URL').'/cancel',
        'shipping_address_collection' => [
            'allowed_countries' => ['DE'],
        ],
        'shipping_options' => [
            [
               'shipping_rate' => $request->lieferung ? env('SHIPPING_RATE_LIEFERUNG') : env('SHIPPING_RATE_ABHOLUNG')
            ],
        ],
        'line_items' => [$lineItems],
        'mode' => 'payment',
        'metadata' => [
            'lieferung' => $request->lieferung,
            'isCustomer' => true
        ],
        'allow_promotion_codes' => true,
        'customer' => Auth::user()->stripe_id
    ]);
}

It works fine though... However, I'd like to know is there way to describe measurements of an article?

For example I have ordered 10 packages of Parquet Flooring Classic and each package has 3m2 of parquet.

I'd like to see it in the bill, like:

Article 1001 - Parquet Flooring Classic (10x Packages - 3m2 each)

I found that metadata could be provided but only for the global checkout level, not per item.

Is there any way to do this?

CodePudding user response：

You can provide metadata per item using Stripe Checkout. Here's an example:

$charge = $stripeClient->checkout->sessions->create([
    ...
    'line_items' => [
        // item 1
        [
            'price_data' => [
                'product_data' => [
                    'name' => 'Item A',
                ],
                // 10.99 USD
                'currency' => 'usd',
                'unit_amount' => 1099,
            ],
            'quantity' => 3,
        ],
        // item 2
        [
            'price_data' => [
                'product_data' => [
                    'name' => 'Item B',
                ],
                // 5.49 USD
                'currency' => 'usd',
                'unit_amount' => 549,
            ],
            'quantity' => 2, 
        ],
    ],
    ...
]);

At checkout, it will give you a neat list of

3 x Item A ....... 32.97 $ USD
2 x Item B ....... 10.98 $ USD

Check all the information on line_items in The stripe API documentation (click on the 'show child attributes' button for all the possible keys and what they're for.)
