Vue 3 Discussion - Vue Stripe Version 5

Vue 3 and Version 5 Discussion

This is a continuation of #148. I decided to move the discussion here for a better forum-like experience.

Today

The latest (3rd) iteration of the vue 3 version is available here https://github.com/vue-stripe/vue-stripe/tree/refactor/next

New docs here https://github.com/vue-stripe/docs

The major changes here are as follows:

• It now uses vue-demi
• Better structuring of core composables - so that they can be used as standalone utilities
• Upgrade component structure to renderless component
• New docs using vite press see early example https://vue-stripe-docs-ossph.vercel.app/

Will close this discussion in favor of https://github.com/orgs/vue-stripe/projects/1/views/1

Here are better alternatives that works with Vue 3:

• https://github.com/ectoflow/vue-stripe-js
• https://github.com/frandiox/vue-use-stripe

What makes either of these "better"? Simply that they are actually implemented and working?

Is there any other discussion or is it just a dead discussion?

I am currently testing which platform is better for discussion issues, obviously, this GitHub Discussion hasn't been maintained for a while but we can revive this or check the poll here: https://twitter.com/jrtiquez/status/1686812250190082049

Discord is where information goes to die, please no. Almost every discord server for a FOSS project just turns into repeatave Q&A that sucks the life out of maintainers, and devolves into a graveyard "1000 threads, 30 answers". Where as github discussions & issues are actually indexed & reachable from the wider internet, and promote long-term discussions.

This thread is a good example, it's 3 years old. Information on discord dies rapidly, none of this would be discoverable.

Current progress as of Jan. 23, 2024

I made another iteration to the current version 5 branch. The reason is that I wanted to use vue-demi to support vue 2 as well. The current working branch is here https://github.com/vue-stripe/vue-stripe/tree/refactor/next.

A lot of core changes has been made, specially how composables are structured. It is now decoupled to the component so we can use it as a standalone utility if you want to implement your own version of Element or if just wanna use the Stripe instance altogether.

A new doc using VitePress is also available at https://github.com/vue-stripe/docs. I think this will be the best option as I can use the components directly in the docs for live demo which will save me a lot of time writing external demo repositories.
