---

✅ What's Been Completed

1. Stripe Package Installed

• ✅ stripe@20.3.1 installed and listed in package.json

2. Environment Configuration

• ✅ .env file updated with Stripe placeholder keys:

  STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_placeholder
  STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_test_placeholder
  STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET=whsec_placeholder
  STRIPE_PRICE_STARTER=price_starter_placeholder
  STRIPE_PRICE_GROWTH=price_growth_placeholder
  STRIPE_PRICE_PRO=price_pro_placeholder
  

  Action Required: Replace placeholders with real Stripe keys (see setup guide)

3. Database Schema Created

• ✅ subscriptions table created with all required fields:
  • user_id (FK to users, UNIQUE)
  • stripe_customer_id (UNIQUE)
  • stripe_subscription_id
  • plan (starter/growth/pro)
  • status (active/trialing/cancelled/past_due)
  • trial_start, trial_end
  • current_period_start, current_period_end
  • cancel_at_period_end
  • created_at, updated_at
• ✅ Indexes created for fast lookups on user_id and stripe_customer_id
• ✅ Foreign key constraint to users table with CASCADE delete

4. Stripe Integration Module (stripe-billing.js)

• ✅ getOrCreateStripeCustomer() — Creates/retrieves Stripe customer
• ✅ createCheckoutSession() — Initiates Stripe Checkout with 14-day trial
• ✅ handleWebhookEvent() — Processes Stripe webhooks:
  • checkout.session.completed → Creates subscription
  • customer.subscription.updated → Updates subscription
  • customer.subscription.deleted → Cancels subscription
  • invoice.payment_failed → Logs payment failure
• ✅ getSubscriptionStatus() — Fetches user's subscription
• ✅ createPortalSession() — Creates Customer Portal session
• ✅ verifyWebhookSignature() — Validates webhook authenticity

5. Subscription Middleware (subscription-middleware.js)

• ✅ attachSubscription() — Auto-attaches subscription to req.subscription
• ✅ requireActiveSubscription() — Restricts routes to active subscribers
• ✅ requireFreeOrSubscription() — Allows free tier OR active subscription
• ✅ Checks trial expiry automatically
• ✅ Returns proper error codes for client-side handling

6. API Endpoints (in server.js)

All endpoints are registered and tested:

POST /api/billing/checkout

Creates Stripe Checkout session for a plan.

• Auth: JWT required
• Body: { plan: "starter|growth|pro", successUrl: "...", cancelUrl: "..." }
• Response: { sessionId: "...", url: "https://checkout.stripe.com/..." }

POST /api/billing/webhook

POST /api/billing/portal

Create Stripe Customer Portal session for managing subscription.

7. Server Configuration

• ✅ Server running on port 3456 (verified with health check)

8. Database Initialization Script Fixed

• ✅ Script tested and confirmed working
• ✅ All tables created successfully

9. Documentation Created
