stripe-connect-account-announcer

Sites announce their stripe connect account id to this endpoint.

Accepts POST requests from sites and stores their stripe connect account id in redis.

Expected input:

• Method: POST
• Content-type: application/json
• Body:

"{
  "stripe_connect_account_id": "acct_abc123dfji", 
  "live_mode": 0, "site_url": "http://127.0.0.1:5000/"
}"

Which is then parsed and stored by this program:

  const parsedBody = JSON.parse(requestBody);
  const stripe_connect_account_id = parsedBody['stripe_connect_account_id'];
  const site_url = parsedBody['site_url'];
  const live_mode = parsedBody['live_mode'];

How to update an existing record

For example, the shop web address changes, and now redis must be updated to store the new shop address:

Example:

1. Get the Stripe connect account id from Stripe, by going to Stripe dashboard -> connect -> Clicking the account -> view the url (this contains the connect account id.
2. Connect to redis and update the record

# Connect to redis, verify the old address (`GET`), then update (`SET`) the new web address
# with the same connect account key
$ telnet 127.0.0.1 6379
GET acct_abc123
$41
https://example.co.uk/
SET acct_abc123 "http://example.com/"
+OK
GET acct_abc123
$24
https://example.com/
QUIT
+OK
Connection closed by foreign host.
