This snippet implements a Stripe payments form on the client using React with XState and Effect.
The stripe logic is defined in a state machine using xstate. The state machine tracks the current state of the form:
Load Stripe (handle possible loading errors and allow reloading)
Wait for user to fill the form and submit
Send a confirmPayment request to Stripe and report any errors
The stripe client is loaded inside a Stripe service implemented using effect. The service executes loadStripe from @stripe/stripe-js.
The React component uses useMachine from @xstate/react to load the state machine.
Loading stripe requires access to a clientSecret that should be provided by the server.
clientSecret is required as input to the state machine.
The component renders Elements from @stripe/react-stripe-js. The code uses useElements and useStripe.
useElements and useStripe can only be used inside a subcomponent wrapped inside Elements.
The form contains AddressElement and PaymentElement from @stripe/react-stripe-js. When the form is submitted, the state machine is triggered with the stripe.submit event.
When the payment is successful stripe will redirect to a success page defined when calling confirmPayment (return_url).
