QuickStart

Installation

$ composer require php-http/curl-client nyholm/psr7 php-http/message florianv/laravel-swap

Laravel 5.7 or lesser

If you use cache, add also PSR-6 adapter and PSR-16 bridge cache dependencies :

$ composer require cache/illuminate-adapter cache/simple-cache-bridge

These dependencies are not required with Laravel 5.8 or greater which implements PSR-16.

Laravel 5.5+

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php:

// /config/app.php
'providers' => [
    Swap\Laravel\SwapServiceProvider::class
],

If you want to use the facade to log messages, add this to your facades in app.php:

'aliases' => [
    'Swap' => Swap\Laravel\Facades\Swap::class
]

Copy the package config to your local config with the publish command:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Swap\Laravel\SwapServiceProvider"

Lumen

Configure the Service Provider and alias:

// /boostrap/app.php

// Register the facade
$app->withFacades(true, [
    Swap\Laravel\Facades\Swap::class => 'Swap'
]);

// Load the configuration
$app->configure('swap');

// Register the service provider
$app->register(Swap\Laravel\SwapServiceProvider::class);

Copy the configuration to /config/swap.php if you wish to override it.

Usage

// Get the latest EUR/USD rate
$rate = Swap::latest('EUR/USD');

// 1.129
$rate->getValue();

// 2016-08-26
$rate->getDate()->format('Y-m-d');

// Get the EUR/USD rate yesterday
$rate = Swap::historical('EUR/USD', Carbon\Carbon::yesterday());
