Exchange aspires to be responsible for the various types of e-commerce interactions available on the Artsy platform. It's currently a prototype, with legacy e-commerce still handled by Gravity. It uses Ruby, Rails, Postgresql, and exposes a GraphQL API.

Did You Change Models?
Papertrail Audit Logging
We use the PaperTrail gem to maintain a log of data changes to important models within the main relational database.
Analytics Notification
If you changed something in the /models
make sure to inform #data (analytics) team about it in case it impacts their reports.
Did You Change GraphQL Schema?
Metaphysics is the current consumer of Exchange GraphQL schema and keeps a copy of latest schema in https://github.com/artsy/metaphysics/tree/master/src/data, if you have changed Exchange GraphQL schema, make sure you also update the copy of this schema in Metaphysics. In order to do so follow these steps:
- In exchange run
rake graphql:schema:idl
- rename
schema.graphql
file generated ☝🏼 toexchange.graphql
mv schema.graphql exchange.graphql
- copy file above to your local update Metaphysics under
src/data
and make a PR to Metaphysics with this change.
There is a guide on how to add exchange operations to Metaphysics here

Debugging
Something went wrong? Ideally in the JSON response returned from Exchange there will be enough info to describe what went wrong. In case that was not useful, you can:
- Check Sentry (password in 1Pass) and look for Exchange (staging or production) and see the error.
- Follow exchange logs by doing
hokusai staging logs -f
If you think there is something we could improve in this error case, feel free to open an issue with details about what you did and what went wrong.
