Stripe "No module named 'stripe.checkout'"

Anvil Q&A
1

Hi all, I’m trying to understand an Anvil error that I’m receiving when running a Stripe checkout.

Following is my code that I’ve pulled into a blank form so it’s easy to read and reproduce:

from ._anvil_designer import Form1Template
from anvil import *
import anvil.server
import stripe.checkout

class Form1(Form1Template):
  def __init__(self, **properties):
    # Set Form properties and Data Bindings.
    self.init_components(**properties)

    # Any code you write here will run when the form opens.
    try:
      amount_due = 12345
      charge = stripe.checkout.charge(amount = amount_due,
                                      currency = "USD",
                                      title = "My Company",
                                      description = "My Services")
      print(charge)
    except Exception as e:
      print("Error: %s" % e)

    try:
      invoice_number = '1234'
      cpid = 5678
      amount_due = anvil.server.call('get_amount_due', invoice_number, cpid)      
      charge = stripe.checkout.charge(amount = amount_due,
                                      currency = "USD",
                                      title = "My Company",
                                      description = "My Services")
      print(charge)
    except Exception as e:
      print("Error: %s" % e)

The first checkout event works fine, but the second one comes back with an error noted as “No module named ‘stripe.checkout’.” The only difference is that I’m calling a server function to obtain the payment amount in that second call and it returns the amount due.

I’m sure it’s something simple, but I am a little baffled by it.

Thanks in advance,
David

Scratch this issue. Looks like when I added the Stripe feature to my project, it automatically added “import stripe.checkout” to every form and component and module. I deleted all of those lines. There must have been some conflict or maybe a circular reference somewhere.
