An asgi server for stripe payments
In order to run this server, you need to set the environnement variable STRIPE_KEY set with your private stripe token:
export STRIPE_KEY=sk_test_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Running the server:
gunicorn server:app -w 4 -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker

python server/server.py
