If specifying both query parameters in a path/URL down to Faraday (e.g.,
`/v1/invoices/upcoming?coupon=25OFF`) _and_ query parameters in a hash
(e.g., `{ customer: "cus_123" }`), it will silently overwrite the ones
in the path with the ones in the hash. This can cause problems where
some critical parameters are discarded and causes an error, as seen in
issue #646.
This patch modifies `#execute_request` so that before going out to
Faraday we check whether the incoming path has query parameters. If it
does, we decode them and add them to our `query_params` hash so that
all parameters from either place are preserved.
Fixes#646.
The test suite is currently throwing a bunch of warnings from some
recent changes I made -- although we initialize `@additive_params` when
setting one with `self.additive_object_param`, we don't when we check
one with `self.additive_object_param?`. This often isn't a problem
because every API resource sets `metadata`, but it is from the test
suite and probably for vanilla `StripeObject`s too.
So we have a bit of a problem right now when it comes to replacing a
`StripeObject` that's embedded in an API resource.
Most of the time when someone does this, they want to _replace_ an
object embedded in another object. Take setting a source on a
subscription for example:
``` ruby
subscription.source = {
object: 'card',
number: 123,
}
subscription.save
```
In the case above, the serialized parameters should come out as:
```
source[object]=card&source[number]=123
```
That should apply even if the previous source had something else set on
it which we're not going to set this time -- say an optional parameter
like `source[address_state]`. Those should not be present at all in the
final serialized parameters.
(Another example is setting a `payout_schedule` as seen in #631 which is
PR is intended to address.)
There is an exception to this rule in the form of metadata though.
Metadata is a bit of a strange case in that the API will treat it as
additive, so if we send `metadata[foo]`, that will set the `foo` key,
but it won't overwrite any other keys that were already present.
This is a problem because when a user fully sets `metadata` to a new
object in Ruby, what they're probably trying to do is _replace_ it
rather than add to it. For example:
``` ruby
subscription.metadata
=> { old: 'bar' }
subscription.metadata = {
new: 'baz'
}
subscription.save
```
To accomplish what the user is probably trying to do, we actually need
to send `metadata[old]=&metadata[new]=baz` so that we empty the value of
`old` while simultaneously setting `new` to `baz`.
In summary, metadata behaves different from other embedded objects in a
fairly fundamental way, and because the code is currently only set up to
handle the metadata case, it's not behaving correctly when other types
of objects are being set. A lot of the time emptying values like we do
for `metadata` is benign, but as we've seen in #631, sometimes it's not.
In this patch, I modify serialization to only empty out object values
when we see that parameter is `metadata`.
I'm really not crazy about the implementation here _at all_, but I'm
having trouble thinking of a better way to do it. One possibility is to
introduce a new class annotation like `empty_embedded_object :metadata`,
but that will have to go everywhere and might be error-prone in case
someone forgets it on a new resource type. If anyone has a suggestion
for an alternative (or can let me know if I'm missing something), I'd
love to hear it.
This PR is an alternate to #631.
A few weeks back a new error type `idempotency_error` was introduced in
the API. I put it in to respond to #503, but then forgot to add support
for it in this library. This patch introduces a new exception class that
represents it.
Makes the `operations` argument to `nested_resource_class_methods`
required and adds explicit lists to any invocations that were missing
one.
The impetus here is that I think it's more easily digestible if each
call site is explicit about what operations it supports and therefore
which methods it's about to create on the class.
Excludes `idempotency_key` from opts to persist between API requests.
Obviously the same idempotency key is not something that we ever want to
use again.
Fixes#598.
Backtracks a little bit #586 by bringing back custom `StripeObject`
encoding and decoding methods for Ruby's `Marshal`. These work by just
persisting values and some opts, and skipping everything else. It's
mostly the same as what we had before, but implemented a little more
cleanly so that we don't actually need to invoke `Marshal` anywhere
ourselves.
In #586 we still managed to remove all the uses of `Marshal` in our own
codebase to make the linter happy. Even though we wouldn't recommend the
use of `Marshal`, this code at least enables it for anyone using a Rails
cache or similar mechanism.
Addresses #90.
This patch modifies the debugging-level logging logic slightly so that
if it's a `GET` request that includes a query string, we log that string
just like we would've for a request body on a `POST` or like.
This especially comes in handy when looking when trying to resolve
something like a problem with the upcoming invoices endpoint like we saw
in #576, but will be useful in a number of situations.
