I am currently developing a Vue3 application and running into some issues while trying to integrate Stripe. I am facing difficulty in incorporating it successfully.
Here is the code snippet from my Vue3 component named Checkout.vue:
<template>
....
...
</template>
<script lang="ts" setup>
import { onMounted, ref, reactive, computed} from 'vue';
import { loadStripe } from '@stripe/stripe-js'
import { useShoppingCart } from '@/stores/shoppingcart'
import axios from 'axios'
import { useRouter } from 'vue-router';
const shoppingcart = useShoppingCart()
const router = useRouter()
const stripe = reactive({})
const cardElement = reactive({})
const customer = reactive({
first_name: '',
last_name: ''
...
...
})
const paymentProcessing = ref(false)
onMounted(async () => {
stripe = await loadStripe(import.meta.env.VITE_MIX_STRIPE_KEY)
let elements = stripe.elements();
cardElement = elements.create('card', {
classes: {
base: 'bg-gray-100 rounded border border-gray-300 focus:border-indigo-500 text-base outline-none text-gray-700 p-3 leading-8 transition-colors duration-200 ease-in-out'
}
});
cardElement.mount('#card-element');
});
const processPayment = async () => {
paymentProcessing.value = true;
const {paymentMethod, error} = await stripe.createPaymentMethod(...)
....
}
The issue persists with an error message stating:
Cannot assign to 'stripe' because it is a constant.
Additionally, the credit card input for Stripe within the Vue component fails to load. It's imperative for me to leverage Stripe not only within onMounted hooks but also within the processPayment method. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
