stripe/stripe-php v7.119.0

The stripe/stripe-php is a powerful library that gives PHP applications convenient access to the Stripe API. Enabling functionalities ranging from handling payments to managing customers and subscriptions, it provides a wide range of features that are compatible with various versions of the Stripe API. The stripe/stripe-php package greatly simplifies the integration process with Stripe, helping to expedite monetization models within applications.

You can begin using stripe/stripe-php by installing it via Composer - a package manager for PHP. To do so, run the command composer require stripe/stripe-php. Once installed, it can be included in your PHP scripts using Composer's autoload, with the line of code require_once 'vendor/autoload.php'.

Here's a simple example of how to create a new customer using stripe/stripe-php:

$stripe = new \Stripe\StripeClient('your_api_key');
$customer = $stripe->customers->create([
    'description' => 'example customer',
    'email' => 'email@example.com',
    'payment_method' => 'your_payment_method',
]);
echo $customer;

This example involves initializing a new Stripe client with your API key and then calling the create() function under customers. This function accepts an array of properties for the new customer. Information about the newly created customer is then printed out.

Remember to replace 'your_api_key' and 'your_payment_method' with your actual stripe API key and payment method respectively.
