A Rails 4 Engine providing Stripe subscription management for SaaS applications. Based on the work of Andrew Culver in Koudoku (https://github.com/andrewculver/koudoku).
Include the stripe_saas gem in your Gemfile and bundle (install):
gem 'stripe_saas'
A rails generator is provided to install the StripeSaas models:
rails g stripe_saas:install user
A model that mirrors a Stripe subscription (https://stripe.com/docs/api/ruby#subscriptions) is generated and a one-to-one relationship between it and one of your application’s models as the owner of the subscription.
In the example above the generated StripeSaas::Subscription 'belongs to' your application’s User:
class Subscription < ActiveRecord::Base
include StripeSaas::Subscription
belongs_to :user
end
and the User class will have one (has_one) subscription:
has_one :subscription
A model that mirrors a Stripe plan (https://stripe.com/docs/api/ruby#plans) is generated.
class Plan < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :subscriptions
has_many :plan_features
has_many :features, through: :plan_features
default_scope { order(:display_order) }
include StripeSaas::Plan
end
Plans have PlanFeatures which in turn are join table/model between Plan and Feature:
class Feature < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :plan_features
has_many :plans, through: :plan_features
default_scope { order(:display_order) }
include StripeSaas::Feature
end
To create a Feature for example, you could use:
Feature.find_or_create_by(name: 'signals').update({
description: "Inbound Signals",
feature_type: :number,
unit: "signals",
display_order: 1
})
Where the feature type can be one of:
FEATURE_TYPES = {
boolean: 'Boolean',
interval: 'Interval (in seconds)',
filesize: 'Filesize (in bytes)',
number: 'Number',
percentage: 'Percentage (%)'
}
To create a plan (in your seeds for example) with a set of features you could use something like:
developer_plan = Plan.find_or_create_by(stripe_id: 'developer')
developer_plan.update({
name: 'Developer',
price: 0.0,
interval: 'month',
interval_count: 1,
statement_descriptor: 'Binnacle Developer Plan',
trial_period_days: 30,
display_order: 1
})
developer_plan.add_feature(:signals, 50000)
Any plan with a price of 0.0 is considered a free plan in StripeSaas which will not require the user to enter credit card information.
After running the installer you will have to migrate your database:
rake db:migrate
As part of the installation procedure an initializer is generated under config/initializers/stripe_saas.rb:
StripeSaas.setup do |config|
config.subscriptions_owned_by = :user
# config.devise_scope = :user
config.stripe_publishable_key = ENV['STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY']
config.stripe_secret_key = ENV['STRIPE_SECRET_KEY']
config.create_plans_in_stripe = false
end
-
subscriptions_owned_by: The symbol of the class that owns the subscription
-
devise_scope: If using Devise and the subscription is not owned by the devise class (user/customer). For example, if users have accounts, and accounts have subscriptions. Then config.subscriptions_owned_by = :account and config.devise_scope = :user
