Simple Charge The checkout id must be a valid checkout id. about cashier-paddle

Hey @esanalok. This perfectly worked for me. So I don't know what's happening here. Can you perhaps try with a fresh installation of cashier-paddle and laravel? Going to close this but feel free to reply.

Hi, @driesvints and @Hussam3bd thanks for your help. I've fixed the issue. Everything was fine. Just need to specify the webhook URL in the charge method. I think it should be mentioned in the documentation. Thanks for your help.

// paylink variable from controller
$payLink = auth()->user()->charge($total, 'Product Title', [
   'webhook_url' => 'webhook URL here',

]);

I had to do exactly the same (thanks @esanalok!). Brand new project with only cashier-paddle, just for testing purposes. Only the following changes to a standard Laravel installation:

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome', [
        'payLink' => \App\Models\User::find(1)->charge(1.50, 'a product', [
            'webhook_url' => 'https://example.com/paddle/webhook',
        ])
    ]);
});

<x-paddle-button :url="$payLink" class="px-8 py-4">
    Buy
</x-paddle-button>

Without webhook_url I had the same issue.

Dug a little deeper - my TLD on my dev system is not a "valid" TLD. The webhook URL is generated in Cashier@webhookUrl and was http://paddle-test.invalid-tld/paddle/webhook. It seems like Paddle doesn't accept this.

@driesvints Maybe worth mentioning in the docs.

Heya, thanks for reporting.

I'll need more info and/or code to debug this further. Please post relevant code like models, jobs, commands, notifications, events, listeners, controller methods, routes, etc. You may use https://paste.laravel.io to post larger snippets or just reply with shorter code snippets.

Thanks!

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm trying to apply a "one off" charge (Simple Charge) against a customer. So let me tell you the process that I have already completed.

1. Installed the official laravel cashier-paddle package using composer require laravel/cashier-paddle
2. Published necessary migrations and added the necessary API Keys on my env file
3. Added the @paddlejs in may master layout blade file and updated the VerifyCsrfToken middleware so it except routes paddle/*
4. Added the Billable trait to the User model
5. Configured the webhook route and controller

// Route example

Route::post('paddle/webhook','WebhookController@handleWebhook')->name('cashier.webhook');

// WebhookController

namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Laravel\Paddle\Http\Controllers\WebhookController as CashierController;

class WebhookController extends CashierController
{
    public function handleWebhook(Request $request)
    {
       
        logger('I can reach here!');
    }

    public function handlePaymentSucceeded($payload)
    {
        
    }
}

6. Generated the paylink variable using my controller and finally used the variable on the paddle-button Blade component
   // paylink variable from controller

$payLink = auth()->user()->charge(12.99, 'Test Product Title');

// Blade file

<x-paddle-button :url="$payLink" class="px-8 py-4">
    Buy
</x-paddle-button>

Note: The simple charge is not working but the charge for a specific product is working fine. For example this one auth()->user()->chargeProduct(619859) is working fine.

These are the steps that I have already followed to integrate the paddle simple chare on my laravel application. Hope that information may help you. Let me know if I am doing anything wrong or missed any steps. Thanks in advance.

@esanalok
When you create single charge
You have to set the webhook_url in your .env file
Just make sure you do that and try.

Hey @esanalok. This perfectly worked for me. So I don't know what's happening here. Can you perhaps try with a fresh installation of cashier-paddle and laravel? Going to close this but feel free to reply.

Thanks, I will try a fresh installation. Thanks for your help and time.

Thanks for your replay. I've already added the webhook by following the documentation and the webhook is working and the payment_succeeded alert is firing when a payment is made into my Paddle account.
But in the documentation, I can't see anything related to webhook_url for the env file. Is it really required?
Let me know if I need to out the webhook_url in my env file.

[driesvints]

That should indeed normally not be necessary. It falls back on the cashier.webhook. I think I might know what's going on though. Can you place Cashier::ignoreRoutes(); in the boot method of your AppServiceProvider and remove the webhook_url from your .env file and try again? I'm guessing we need to add that to the docs but want to verify first.

Thanks, I have uninstalled the package and then install again. But sorry to inform you that I'm having the same issue. The charge for a specific product with product id from paddle working fine but when I try to charge the customer one-off (Simple charge) I am getting the same issue again. Also, I would like to inform you that I think there is another issue with the inline checkout. While I was trying to integrate the inline checkout I put the paddle-checkout Blade component on my blade file and I am getting an issue in my console and it says "Templates should only be responsible for mapping the state to the UI. Avoid placing tags with side-effects in your templates, such as <script>, as they will not be parsed."

<x-paddle-checkout :override="$payLink" class="w-full" height="500" />

Note: Both of the Inline Checkout and simple charge is not working for me. I will be happy if I can get a solution to this issue. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your suggestion. I have already followed your instructions but I am sorry to inform you that I'm still having the same issue.
Note: My project was a laravel 5.7 project but recently I have updated my project to laravel 7.24 by following the laravel update documentation. Everything is working fine after the update except the paddle checkout.

[driesvints]

@esanalok at this point I'd like to suggest you upload a repo which reproduces the problem. Please commit your changes separately from a fresh laravel installation.

[driesvints]

@esanalok you shouldn't need to do that. That's already been done for you behind the scenes.

Thanks. But for some reason, it was not working for me. But it works after adding the webhook URL.

[driesvints]

@SebastianSchoeps we can't document every single exception that Paddle doesn't handle. That seems more something for the Paddle docs themselves. Best that you send a ticket to their support.

[driesvints]

A general note of "make sure you have a valid url" can be added though. Feel free to PR that.

I had the same issue, but mine was cause by the test domain, which was not (yet) approved by Paddle. I had a PR in the docs, hoping to help. Cheers
