HungryWolfTShirts : Cartman and Stripe

At a recent ruby meetup, friend of a friend introduced me to Scott Rocher, CTO at Tonx coffee. I asked him for advice on my e-commerce project, and he kindly suggested looking into a couple of gems.

Cartman Given that I had already made item objects to be purchased, Scott recommended Cartman, a Redis backed gem that builds carts (or baskets), and calculates totals, number of items, etc. You can do things like

cart = Cartman::Cart.new(user_id) cart.add_item( id: 1, type: "TshirtA", unit_cost: 10, quantity: 1) cart.add_item( id: 2, type: "TshirtB", unit_cost: 20, quantity: 2) cart.total => 50 cart.quantity => 3 cart.destroy!

Note - all cartman costs are in cents!

Stripe.js Easy to implement, safe to use. Comes with a spiffy pre-made modal form. Credit card information never hits your server! Rocking it live in test-mode.

Stripe.js: Displaying Credit Card Type Image

I recently worked on a project with a friend and we decided to use Stripe for payments. I had always seen those neat little payment forms that display a card type image after you enter your credit card and I thought it would be a nice touch. The project ended up going nowhere because it always exist (what doesn't these days?) Regardless, hopefully someone else will enjoy this code and find it useful. Documentation for the Stripe functions used, and others, can be found here.
