    Hey Justin,

    Awesome plugin – thank you for building this!

    Do you have any recommendation on passing additional Metadata to Stripe for the payment? Wanted to get your 2 cents before we extend the plugin.

    Cheers,
    Ali

    Hi Ali – That’s a rather broad question but this plugin uses the Stripe SDK so anything you can do with the SDK, you can do with this plugin assuming you pass the necessary data.

    Justin,

    Thank you for the quick response. To clarify the question (for others) –

    Your plugin does a nice job of executing a basic Stripe charge via ACH payment. However, it’s important to note that it only passes the amount, customer email, and optional description with the charge.

    Most developers who use this instead of a custom Plaid configuration will likely want to pass additional Metadata to the Stripe charge for reference (e.g. invoice_id). In that case, extension is required to avoid directly editing your plugin.

    Hence my question ??

    But again – thank you for providing this free resource. Super helpful and appreciated!

    Cheers,
    Ali

    I was wondering if there is an extension for the LitleBot plugin for passing additional metadata. I have installed the plugin and it works great but I only get the email of the user. Need to get the metadata. I have stopped the code in the debugger at the point where the data is about to be posted, but not sure how to add the metadata.

    Sorry, there is no extension at this time. Pull requests accepted & encouraged however!
