README
Why?
Because Argentina has a black market for currency exchange. And this makes it easy to retrieve the current USD conversion rate from different sources. And also because I needed something small to talk about Package Development and testing on this meetup.
Requirements
- Laravel 4
- PHP >= 5.4
Installation
Begin by installing this package through Composer. Edit your project's composer.json
file to require `fedeisas/laravel-dolar-blue.
{ "require": { "laravel/framework": "4.0.*", "fedeisas/laravel-dolar-blue": "dev-master" }, "minimum-stability" : "dev" }
Next, update Composer from the Terminal:
$ composer update
Once this operation completes, the final step is to add the service provider. Open app/config/app.php
, and add a new item to the providers array.
'providers' => array( ... 'Fedeisas\LaravelDolarBlue\LaravelDolarBlueServiceProvider', )
Optionally you can also add the Facade to the aliases array on app/config/app.php
:
'aliases' => array( ... 'DolarBlue' => 'Fedeisas\LaravelDolarBlue\Facade\LaravelDolarBlue', )
Usage
Currenly it only supports 3 providers (more to come):
- LaNacion
- DolarBlue
- BlueLytics
$service = App::make('Fedeisas\LaravelDolarBlue\LaravelDolarBlue'); $result = $service->get('DolarBlue'); // or $service->DolarBlue(); // returns // array( // 'buy' => '10.15', // 'sell' => '10.55', // 'timestamp' => 1399080004 // )
Or you can use the facade:
$result = DolarBlue::get('LaNacion'); // and using some __call magic $result = DolarBlue::LaNacion(); $result = DolarBlue::DolarBlue(); $result = DolarBlue::BlueLytics();

I needed an idea for a small library, and I borrowed it from a friend who has done something similar for NodeJS. You should check it out: https://github.com/matiu/dolar-blue
