nikiviOP•2y ago

my code is like this can I deploy this or i need to make changes

Brody•2y ago

yes the project is in the format of a node module

nikiviOP•2y ago

not sure what you mean I wonder if I can just run railway link and it will deploy

Brody•2y ago

this might be more what you want https://github.com/brody192/express-simple that isn't quite how it works you will want to fork that repo, clone it to your computer, make the changes you want, push the changes to github, then add a new service from that repo you forked

nikiviOP•2y ago

thanks will try now

Brody•2y ago

cool!

nikiviOP•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

im looking at yours now

Brody•2y ago

please read this docs page to get you back on track https://docs.railway.app/troubleshoot/fixing-common-errors

nikiviOP•2y ago

const port = process.env.PORT || 3000

app.listen(port, () => console.log(`Running on port ${port}`))

const port = process.env.PORT || 3000

app.listen(port, () => console.log(`Running on port ${port}`))

ok so i added this its still failing unless i miss something else

Brody•2y ago

failing how?

nikiviOP•2y ago

the thing though well web hooks don't get sent to that url maybe its a stripe issue

Brody•2y ago

send me the railway domain for that service?

nikiviOP•2y ago

stripe-payment-hooks-production.up.railway.app

nikiviOP•2y ago

btw feature request is so copy gives full url

nikiviOP•2y ago

with https:// not sure why it only gives raw thing

Brody•2y ago

yep, the app works fine

nikiviOP•2y ago

ok then will ask on stripe side

Brody•2y ago

stripe will have some type of logs for why it fails, send them over and im sure they have a test the webhook endpoint button or something right?

nikiviOP•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

before deploying i was working with it locally and it worked stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/webhook i ran this

Brody•2y ago

what endpoint do you have registered to handle the stripe webhooks

nikiviOP•2y ago

and node index.js https://stripe-payment-hooks-production.up.railway.app

nikiviOP•2y ago

Brody•2y ago

in code

nikiviOP•2y ago

im not sure i get you

i get a checkout page like this

        const normalMonthly = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
          success_url: process.env.STRIPE_SUCCESS_URL!,
          mode: "subscription",
          metadata: {
            userDetailsId: userDetailsId,
          },
          line_items: [
            {
              quantity: 1,
              price: process.env.STRIPE_NORMAL_MONTH_SUBSCRIPTION!,
            },
          ],
        })

        const normalMonthly = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
          success_url: process.env.STRIPE_SUCCESS_URL!,
          mode: "subscription",
          metadata: {
            userDetailsId: userDetailsId,
          },
          line_items: [
            {
              quantity: 1,
              price: process.env.STRIPE_NORMAL_MONTH_SUBSCRIPTION!,
            },
          ],
        })

created like so then when users complete the checkout web hooks should get sent to this railway endpoint

Brody•2y ago

your endpoint is /webhook you need to tell stripe to call that endpoint

nikiviOP•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

ok trying with this

Brody•2y ago

you are missing the /webhook endpoint here

nikiviOP•2y ago

nikiviOP•2y ago

thank you that worked

Brody•2y ago

awsome for node apps that you have full control over the codebase, its best to define the start command/script in the package.json file, but i see you dont have one
