Feature Request: Disable verifying event with stripe

[JakeAustwick]

I'm currently integrating stripe_event, and want to test my code in the subscribe blocks. I'm using localhost for development and therefore can't set a webhook to my URL.

Thoughts on adding a testing option to disable the checking with stripe? Then I could just look at the event in the stripe interface and post it to localhost myself.

Thanks,
Jake

You can use the localtunnel gem to get a public URL to your localhost that stripe can use.

That's true, but my experience with localtunnel has been that it's extremely slow.

You could try showoff.io as well, it's more reliable.

Thanks, I'll check that out then.

I think this will be a useful feature. I've also been using localtunnel for development, but it's not ideal. Thanks for posting.

@JakeAustwick v0.4.0 can be configured to skip retrieving the event from Stripe: https://github.com/integrallis/stripe_event#configuration. Let me know how this works out.
