Laravel-Exchanger
=================

[](#laravel-exchanger)

A Laravel currency converter library that uses [florianv/exchanger](https://github.com/florianv/exchanger).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require juanparati/laravel-exchanger

```

Facade registration (optional):

```
'aliases' => [
    ...
    'CurrencyExchanger' => \Juanparati\LaravelExchanger\Facades\ExchangerConverterFacade,
    ...
]

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Publish configuration file:

```
artisan vendor:publish --provider="Juanparati\LaravelExchanger\Providers\ExchangerServiceProvider"

```

The configuration contains a list of services, check the [florianv/exchanger](https://github.com/florianv/exchanger) documentation in order to know the description and characteristics of each service.

It's important to provide a valid cache time (in seconds) in order to avoid duplicate requests.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Get the currency rate

[](#get-the-currency-rate)

```
$rate = CurrencyExchanger::getRate('eur', 'pln'); // Return Exchanger\ExchangeRate
$rate->getValue();                                // Returns rate as float
$rate->getDate()->format('Y-m-d')                 // Returns exchange date

// Historical rate
CurrencyExchanger::getRate('nok', 'sek', now()->subDays(10));

```

### Convert currency

[](#convert-currency)

```
CurrencyExchanger::convert('ron', 'dkk', 10); // Convert 10 RON to DKK and return as float

// Historical conversion rate
CurrencyExchanger::convert('ron', 'dkk', 10, now()->subDays(5));

// Obtain the last rate (Exchanger\ExchangeRate) for the previous currency conversion
CurrencyExchanger::getLastExchangeRateResult();

```

### Cache state

[](#cache-state)

Is sometimes convenient to disable the cache in order of force to request the most recent rate or conversion. In order to achieve that is possible to disable temporally the cache:

```
CurrencyExchanger::setCacheStatus(false); // Cache disabled
CurrencyExchanger::setCacheStatus(true);  // Cache enabled

```

Remember that cache is always enabled by default when the configuration key "cache\_time" has a valid integer.

### Attach/Detach services on-demand

[](#attachdetach-services-on-demand)

It's possible to attach and detach services on demand:

```
// Detach service
CurrencyExchanger::detach(\Exchanger\Service\Cryptonator::class);

// Attach service
CurrencyExchanger::attach(\Exchanger\Service\Cryptonator::class);

```

By default all the services registered into the configuration are attached by default.

### Execute custom queries

[](#execute-custom-queries)

Because this library works as a wrapper for [florianv/exchanger](https://github.com/florianv/exchanger) it's possible to execute custom queries passing the build query to the "executeQuery" method.

```
...
CurrencyExchanger::executeQuery($query->build);
...

```
