productize

Productize

This tool automates the process of creating Stripe products and prices, and generates a TypeScript file with the corresponding IDs for easy reference in your codebase.

Installation

npm install -g productize
# or
bun add -g productize

Usage

CLI

You can use this tool directly from the command line:

// load the secret key from the environment
export STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_your_stripe_secret_key

bun add -g productize
productize [input-file] [output-file]

Or instantly run with bunx:

STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=your_stripe_secret_key bunx productize [input-file] [output-file]

• input-file: Path to your JSON file with product data (default: products.json)
• output-file: Path where the TypeScript file will be generated (default: products.ts)

Programmatic Usage

You can also use this tool programmatically in your Node.js/Bun/Deno projects:

import { bootstrapStripeProducts } from 'productize';

await bootstrapStripeProducts({
  stripeSecretKey: 'your_stripe_secret_key',
  inputFilePath: 'path/to/your/products.json',
  outputFilePath: 'path/to/output/products.ts'
});
console.log('Stripe products bootstrapped successfully.');

Or without top-level await / import:

require('productize').bootstrapStripeProducts({
  stripeSecretKey: 'your_stripe_secret_key',
  inputFilePath: 'path/to/your/products.json',
  outputFilePath: 'path/to/output/products.ts'
}).then(() => console.log('Stripe products bootstrapped successfully'));

Input File Format

Your products input JSON file should have the following structure:

[
  {
    "name": "Basic Plan",
    "description": "Basic features for individuals",
    "prices": [
      {
        "name": "Monthly",
        "unit_amount": 999,
        "currency": "usd",
        "recurring": {
          "interval": "month"
        }
      },
      {
        "name": "Yearly",
        "unit_amount": 9990,
        "currency": "usd",
        "recurring": {
          "interval": "year"
        }
      }
    ]
  },
  // Add more products as needed
]

Output

The tool will generate a TypeScript file with SNAKE_CASE constants for your Stripe products and prices:

// This file is auto-generated. Do not edit manually.
export const STRIPE_PRODUCTS = {
  BASIC_PLAN: {
    ID: 'prod_Qc1gQZpb89FTYN',
    PRICES: {
      MONTHLY: {
        ID: 'price_1PkndDBUsi1mfR0LbGg1Nwtk',
        AMOUNT: '$9.99 USD',
      },
      YEARLY: {
        ID: 'price_1PkndEBUsi1mfR0L3qMxfCMh',
        AMOUNT: '$99.90 USD',
      },
    },
  },
};

Best Practices

• Keep the generated TypeScript file in version control, but don't edit it manually.
• Run this tool in your CI/CD pipeline or during deployment to ensure Stripe product IDs and attributes are up-to-date.
• Use environment-specific STRIPE_SECRET_KEYs to separate test and live mode data.
