RESERVED_FIELD_NAMES =

When designing APIs, we now make a conscious effort server-side to avoid naming fields after important built-ins in various languages (e.g. class, method, etc.).

However, a long time ago we made the mistake (either consciously or by accident) of initializing our ‘metadata` fields as instances of `StripeObject`, and metadata can have a wide range of different keys defined in it. This is somewhat a convenient in that it allows users to access data like `obj.metadata.my_field`, but is almost certainly not worth the cost.

Naming metadata fields bad things like ‘class` causes `initialize_from` to produce strange results, so we ban known offenders here.

In a future major version we should consider leaving ‘metadata` as a hash and forcing people to access it with `obj.metadata` because the potential for trouble is just too high. For now, reserve names.

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(name, *args) ⇒ Object (protected)

Disabling the cop because it’s confused by the fact that the methods are protected, but we do define ‘#respond_to_missing?` just below. Hopefully this is fixed in more recent Rubocop versions.

Class Method Details

.additive_object_param(name) ⇒ Object

Sets the given parameter name to one which is known to be an additive object.

Additive objects are subobjects in the API that don’t have the same semantics as most subobjects, which are fully replaced when they’re set. This is best illustrated by example. The ‘source` parameter sent when updating a subscription is not additive; if we set it:

source[object]=card&source[number]=123

We expect the old ‘source` object to have been overwritten completely. If the previous source had an `address_state` key associated with it and we didn’t send one this time, that value of ‘address_state` is gone.

By contrast, additive objects are those that will have new data added to them while keeping any existing data in place. The only known case of its use is for ‘metadata`, but it could in theory be more general. As an example, say we have a `metadata` object that looks like this on the server side:

 = { old: "old_value" }

If we update the object with ‘metadata=new_value`, the server side object now has both fields:

 = { old: "old_value", new: "new_value" }

This is okay in itself because usually users will want to treat it as additive:

obj.[:new] = "new_value"
obj.save

However, in other cases, they may want to replace the entire existing contents:

obj. = { new: "new_value" }
obj.save

This is where things get a little bit tricky because in order to clear any old keys that may have existed, we actually have to send an explicit empty string to the server. So the operation above would have to send this form to get the intended behavior:

metadata[old]=&metadata[new]=new_value

This method allows us to track which parameters are considered additive, and lets us behave correctly where appropriate when serializing parameters to be sent.

#dirty!Object

Sets all keys within the StripeObject as unsaved so that they will be included with an update when #serialize_params is called. This method is also recursive, so any StripeObjects contained as values or which are values in a tenant array are also marked as dirty.

#update_attributes(values, opts = {}, dirty: true) ⇒ Object

Mass assigns attributes on the model.

This is a version of update_attributes that takes some extra options for internal use.

Attributes

  • values - Hash of values to use to update the current attributes of the object. If you are on ruby 2.7 or higher make sure to wrap in curly braces to be ruby 3 compatible.

  • opts - Options for StripeObject like an API key that will be reused on subsequent API calls.

Options

  • :dirty - Whether values should be initiated as “dirty” (unsaved) and which applies only to new StripeObjects being initiated under this StripeObject. Defaults to true.
