First, check the user is logged in if not return. Next get the customer id from the database, if it's empty then return.
Attempt to get the customer from Customer::retrieve()
Lastly, check if the user has been deleted from Strip if so save its state in the database and return the customer array
protected function getCustomer()
{
//if not logged in return
if (!Auth::check()) {
return null;
}
//assign stripe customer from db
$stripe_customer_id = Auth::user()->stripe_customer_id;
//no customer id
if ($stripe_customer_id == null) {
return null;
}
//get customer record from stripe
try {
$customer = Customer::retrieve(
array("id" => $stripe_customer_id, "expand" => array("default_source"))
);
} catch (Exception $e) {
dd('Stripe Customer not found! Error: '.$e->getMessage());
}
//if stripe customer has been deleted
if ($customer->deleted == true) {
//remove stripe link
$user = User::find(Auth::id());
$user->stripe_customer_id = null;
$user->save();
return null;
}
return $customer;
}
