Error with localization

[roykho]

code should be correct per Stripe's reference docs seen here https://stripe.com/docs/api#errors

I'm the original poster on the WP support area. - I've investigated this a little more. It ends up this only occurs on empty form submission.

If you submit an empty form to stripe, it returns an error message without a code.

Empty form response:
{
"error": {
"type": "invalid_request_error",
"message": "Could not find payment information"
}
}

If the form has any data it will return with a code

Example response:
{
"error": {
"message": "Your card's expiration year is invalid.",
"type": "card_error",
"param": "exp_year",
"code": "invalid_expiry_year"
}
}

The problem being it's not currently possible to localise the empty form error response.

@roykho you have added messages only for card_error type and assumed that any responseObject will have a code, but as you can see in the results pasted by @netplus and also in the Stripe docs, there also additional error types and not all types have a code, some of them only have a type and message. From the Stripe.com docs linked above:

The type of error returned. Can be: api_connection_error, api_error, authentication_error, card_error, invalid_request_error, or rate_limit_error.

The appropriate solution would be check responseObject.response.error.type to determine what data contains the responseObject (e.g. it has a code or not?) and proceed accordingly. That is basically what Stripe.com is recommending with this:

Handling errors
Our API libraries raise exceptions for many reasons, such as a failed charge, invalid parameters, authentication errors, and network unavailability. We recommend writing code that gracefully handles all possible API exceptions.

@samuelaguilera - this has already been flagged a bug so it is known and will be fixed by next release.

@roykho great! just commented because of your comment after flagging it as a bug and also seeing that it was labeled as "needs author reply" days after that. Just wanted to add some light here :)
