**Important**: Since [fixer.io](https://fixer.io) updated their API you have to register for an account to use this package! This package does not support premium features of fixer.io yet! If you are using fixer.io premium's features, you might not even need this package anymore => take a look at the `/convert` endpoint.

Install
-------

[](#install)

#### Laravel Version 5.6+

[](#laravel-version-56)

`composer require byte5digital/currency-converter`

in your `.env` add your fixer.io api key `FIXER_API_KEY=Your_api_key`

*optional*`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Byte5\CurrencyConverter\CurrencyConverterServiceProvider"`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
// Converting currencies
Currency::convert(100, 'EUR')->into('USD');

// get currency rates
Currency::getLatestRates();

// get rates for different base (default: EUR)
Currency::setBase('USD')->getLatestRates();

// get specific currency rates
Currency::getLatestRates(['USD', 'GBP']);
Currency::getLatestRates('USD');

// get historical currency rates
Currency::getHistoricalRates('2000-01-03');
Currency::getHistoricalRates(Carbon::yesterday());
Currency::getHistoricalRates('2000-01-03', ['USD', 'GBP']);

```
