You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, modifying behavior, or planning anything new, in software or out of it (a talk, a business, a renovation).
extension-stripePayment support based on Stripe, supporting credit cards and debit cards. Checkout and session status use HTTP outcalls. For inbound Stripe webhooks (POST to the canister), also load extension-http-endpoints.

Stripe payment extension for Caffeine AI.
This skill adds Stripe payment support using HTTP outcalls. The MixinStripe mixin provides configuration, checkout session creation, payment status checks, and the HTTP outcall transform callback. The frontend handles checkout flow and payment result pages.
Inbound Stripe webhooks (an external POST to the canister) are not covered here — use extension-http-endpoints for the http_request / http_request_update handlers, then verify Stripe signatures in the update path.
Prerequisite: You must follow extension-authorization first, as this integration depends on it.
The prefabricated module mo:caffeineai-stripe/stripe.mo provides low-level Stripe HTTP helpers. Do not modify it.
import OutCall "mo:caffeineai-http-outcalls/outcall";

secretKey : Text;

include MixinStripe(accessControlState, stripeState) MUST be placed in main.mo, not in a custom mixin file. The mixin provides these public endpoints automatically:
isStripeConfigured()setStripeConfiguration(config)createCheckoutSession(items, successUrl, cancelUrl)getStripeSessionStatus(sessionId)transform(input) — required for HTTP outcall response transformationDo NOT redeclare any of these functions. They are provided exclusively by MixinStripe.

For Stripe payment integration:
Usage:
Implement a PaymentSetup component with:
isStripeConfigured() and setStripeConfiguration()StripeConfiguration.
Implement a checkout hook:
createCheckoutSession result is needed.url. If missing, throw an error and do not redirect.import { useMutation } from '@tanstack/react-query';
import { useActor } from '@caffeineai/core-infrastructure';
import { ShoppingItem } from '../backend';
export type CheckoutSession = {
id: string;
url: string;
};
export function useCreateCheckoutSession() {
const { actor } = useActor();
return useMutation({
mutationFn: async (items: ShoppingItem[]): Promise<CheckoutSession> => {
if (!actor) throw new Error('Actor not available');
const baseUrl = `${window.location.protocol}//${window.location.host}`;
const successUrl = `${baseUrl}/payment-success`;
const cancelUrl = `${baseUrl}/payment-failure`;
const result = await actor.createCheckoutSession(items, successUrl, cancelUrl);
// JSON parsing is important!
const session = JSON.parse(result) as CheckoutSession;
if (!session?.url) {
throw new Error('Stripe session missing url');
}
return session;
}
});
}
Implement a Payment component with:
useCreateCheckoutSession()ShoppingItem[] as input.CheckoutSession result.CheckoutSession: This allows the user to complete the payment.window.location.href./undefined; if session.url is missing, show an error and stop.const session = await createCheckoutSession.mutateAsync(shoppingItems);
if (!session?.url) throw new Error('Stripe session missing url');
window.location.href = session.url;
Implement a PaymentSuccess and PaymentFailure component to handle payment success or failure, respectively.
Route two specific paths to the payment status components:
The admin view offers a menu to configure Stripe. If not yet configured, it asks the admin to configure Stripe on login.
Side note: Make sure that product images are properly rendered and resized inside the product canvas.
