Payola

Payments with Stripe for your Rails application.

What does this do?

Payola is a drop-in Rails engine that lets you sell one or more products by just including a module in your models. It includes:

• An easy to embed, easy to customize, async Stripe Checkout button
• Asynchronous payments, usable with any background processing system
• Full webhook integration
• Easy extension hooks for adding your own functionality
• Customizable emails

To see Payola in action, check out the site for Mastering Modern Payments: Using Stripe with Rails. Read the book to find out the whys behind Payola's design.

Installation

Add Payola to your Gemfile:

gem 'payola-payments'

Run the installer:

$ rails g payola:install
$ rake db:migrate

(Note: do not run rake payola:install:migrations. Payola's migrations live inside the gem and do not get copied into your application.)

Optionally, tell Stripe about your application. Add this as a webhook in your Stripe dashboard:

https://your.website.example.com/payola/events
