This is the source code for the Go client library for Chargebee APIs.
Go version: v3 and v2 of the library require Go v1.3 or higher.
The versioning scheme of this library is inspired by SemVer and the format is v{MAJOR}.{MINOR}.{PATCH}
. For example, v3.0.0
and v2.5.1
are valid library versions.
The following table provides some details for each major version:
Library major version | Status | Compatible API versions | Branch |
---|---|---|---|
v3 | Active | v2 and v1 | master |
v2 | Inactive | v2 and v1 | chargebee-v2 |
A couple of terms used in the above table are explained below:
- Status: The current development status for the library version. An Active major version is currently being maintained and continues to get backward-compatible changes.
- Branch: The branch in this repository containing the source code for the latest release of the library version. Every version of the library has been tagged. You can check out the source code for any version using its tag.
đź”´ Attention: The support for v2 will eventually be discontinued on December 31st 2023 and will no longer receive any further updates. We strongly recommend upgrading to v3 as soon as possible.
Note: See the changelog for a history of changes.
Install the latest version of the library with the following commands:
go get github.com/chargebee/chargebee-go/v3
go get github.com/chargebee/chargebee-go
Some examples for using the library are listed below.

Idempotency keys are passed along with request headers to allow a safe retry of POST requests.

customerAction "github.com/chargebee/chargebee-go/v3/actions/customer"
"github.com/chargebee/chargebee-go/v3/models/customer"

.SetIdempotencyKey("ghggh") // Replace <<UUID>> with a unique string
.Request()
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
} else {
Customer := res.Customer
fmt.Println(Customer)
}
headerValue := res.GetResponseHeaders() // Retrieves response headers
fmt.Println(headerValue)
idempotencyReplayedValue := res.IsIdempotencyReplayed()// Retrieves idempotency replayed header value
fmt.Println(idempotencyReplayedValue)
}
IsIdempotencyReplayed()
method can be accessed to differentiate between original and replayed requests.
