Last active October 5, 2017 13:50
I use this method on a StripeWebhook model. Based on the guide here: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks#verify-manually
public function isValid(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request){
// Grab the Stripe-Signature header
$header_signature = $request->header('Stripe-Signature');
// sets variables $t and $v1 with their values, (and any other elements that stripe may pass along that we'll ignore)
foreach(explode(',', $header_signature) as $key => $val){
$prefix = str_before($val, '=');
$$prefix = str_after($val, '=');
