🛒 A starter storefront with Gatsby, Stripe, Netlify Functions.

gatsby-starter-stripe

A minimal starter to create a storefront with Gatsby, Stripe, & Netlify Functions. This starter focuses on handling Stripe integration, and letting you handle the rest however you'd like.

Features

• Statically generate based on Stripe inventory
• Dynamically update with live inventory & availability data
• Checkout powered by Stripe
• Serverless functions interact with Stripe API
• Shopping cart persists in local storage
• Responsive images with gatsby-image

The ProductsProvider component provides normalized Product and Sku data sourced from Gatsby's GraphQL store and the live Stripe API, while the CartProvider manages the cart, its persistence in local storage, and checkout.

Getting Started

1. Create a site with Gatsby

   gatsby new <project-name> https://github.com/brxck/gatsby-starter-stripe

2. Configure API keys

   Rename .env.development.sample to .env.development and fill with your Stripe API test keys. Do the same for .env.production and your live API keys. Don't commit these files to a public repo!

3. Start development servers

   There are two development servers for this project:

   1. gatsby serve for our Gatsby site
   2. netlify-lambda serve functions for our Netlify Functions

   You will probably want to start both at once:

   npm run start

   Your site is accessible at http://localhost:8000 and your Netlify Functions are accessible at http://localhost:8000/.netlify/.

   Note: try deleting the cache (rm -rf .cache) if Gatsby's dev server fails to start.

4. Start developing

   This starter aims to handle some of the plumbing needed to integrate Gatsby & Stripe. Everything else (ex. styling) is left to you and your preferred methods.

   The source files for Netlify Functions are located at /src/functions, they are then built into the files in /functions. Visit the documentation for more information on their structure.

   The ProductsProvider & CartProvider components centralize data & logic, which are then passed through React's Context API. The starter's components are written using Hooks.

5. Deploy to Netlify

   If you want to deploy somewhere other than Netlify, you'll have to find another place to deploy the serverless functions in /functions, ex. AWS Lambda.
