Request: Stripe docs (bounty=$60 offered)

[wkoszek]

I'd be great to get a Stripe English docset into Dash. I'd be willing to donate $20 for this effort.

[mikerogne]

I'll put in an additional $20.

[godbout]

is this still on? this doc?: https://stripe.com/docs

[wkoszek]

@godbout My commitment of $20 is still there. You'll have to check if @mikerogne is in as well. For me, getting https://stripe.com/docs and https://stripe.com/docs/api/terminal/connection_tokens/create (aka - API reference) would be amazing.

Yes, I'm still good for it as well.

ok i'll have a look at it. but no promise 😅️

it's huge. and it's a pain to download. i haven't cleaned it so it comes with all the menus and shit, and it probably still access some stuff online, which i'll solve later. what i need from you now is to let me know if you're getting the pages you want, or if some are extra and could be removed. i don't use that doc myself so not the best to make a judgment here. thanks!

[godbout]

added a second version. removed headers, menus, etc. added the TOC. but the Stripe doc is heavy on JavaScript, and you can't the JavaScript of the doc AND the TOC at the same time (you can still make it work weirdly by double-clicking the TOC entry rather than using the keyboard shortcuts). this is due to the fact that Dash adds hashtags to the page URL and the Strip JavaScript is trying to read it and breaks.

there's some more cosmetics to do like center the page, etc... but i'll wait for your first comments before spending more time on this.

i'm thinking also, maybe the API doc should be a Docset by its own.

@godbout It looks like a good start. I loaded "Start with a guide" sections first and it look good. Then I disconnected from Wifi. I clicked "Clone a sample project" section, and it didn't load. Is that expected?

[godbout]

clicking the section works for me. you don't mean clicking the sections from Clone a sample project right? because those ones would send you to GitHub.

[godbout]

but anyways, no wonder nobody did a Docset for Stripe. it's a huge pain. their doc is basically a React app. the JavaScript breaks when downloaded. so it's not just an issue of downloading the doc, and formatting. you need to go understand and update their JS. not worth it (i mean it was not worth it from the start 😅️😂️ i wanted to do it for fun and coz it's a library used by a lot of people so that could be very helpful), sorry!

i'll put online the current version i have. i have one also for the Stripe API but you can only see half of their doc because of the same JS issue. that's where it ends for me!

[godbout]

that's all i'll be able to do folks:

• Stripe API: https://github.com/godbout/dash-docset-builder/blob/stripe-api/storage/stripe-api/stripe-api.tgz
• Stripe: https://github.com/godbout/dash-docset-builder/blob/stripe/storage/stripe/stripe.tgz

that's in the philosophy of better than nothing. if you find something who's able to deal with their JavaScript i'd be interested to know!

good luck.

[wkoszek]

@godbout Maybe I'd not give up some easily. I've pinged some people from Stripe and pointed them to this thread.

[godbout]

let's see what they say.

[eddiewang]

would love to see this as well

[wkoszek]

@eddiewang How much are you pitching in? :)

[jhogervorst]

➕ $20 bounty from me!

[adiltamboli12]

this is still open?

[godbout]

not from me.

[AGGLtd]

Back then :)
