Video rooms

Addresses: https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/issues/1598

share the link with participants to join!

How does it work?

It works by peers streaming to, and from each other. For more details and to

learn about WebRTC, Signalling servers (TURN/STUN) and ICE candidates, see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmR9IMUD_CY

guide: https://github.com/domchristie/webrtc-hotwire-rails

Todo's:

1. ability for participants to mute audio / stop video
2. fix flakiness in new participants connecting to already-joined peers (newly joined peers dont see existing participants until they refresh the page and join again)
3. UI improvements, see: https://github.com/Alicunde/Videoconference-Dish-CSS-JS

What's Changed

• [Plugin] Printify/Stripe integration by @alis-khadka @Pralish and @Ayon95 in https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/pull/1593

Living Doc: https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/issues/1562

Currency

Printify has two currency settings;

• catalog currency: This is the currency in which we can view different product prices in Printify's catalog.
• billing currency : This is the currency in which the shop owner will be charged by Printify.

We can find further details about it over Printify webpage. LINK 1, LINK 2

The Printify's products API does not provide any details regarding the currency being used. It only returns the price in figures.

So, to overcome this barrier, we would have to manually set the currency, which is being used or has been setup in Printify platform, in Violet-Rails end. It will be saved under a shop api-resource's properties as below; TEST-NET LINK

This currency information will be used to show the prices in products-listing, product-detail, cart and Stripe's checkout page.

Note: For now, we are using USD currency over the test-net.
