README

Another simple self hosted currency converter based only on
free government data sources but any other data source can be added as-well.

has serialization/deserialization built in to allow you to save/cache the converters along with their last update timestamps,
thus avoiding unnecessary requests if you wish.

$converter = new CurrencySourceBankOfEurope(); // use european bank
var_dump($converter->getCurrencyList()->convert("EUR", "USD", 1)); // -> 1 euro to usd through Europe bank
var_dump($converter->getCurrencyList()->convert("USD", "EUR", 1)); // -> 1 usd to euro through Europe bank
var_dump($converter->getCurrencyList()->convert("ILS", "EUR", 1)); // -> 1 ils to euro through Europe bank
var_dump($converter->getCurrencyList()->convert("EUR", "ILS", 1)); // -> 1 euro to ils through Europe bank
$converter = new CurrencySourceBankOfIsrael(); //use israeli bank
var_dump($converter->getCurrencyList()->convert("EUR", "USD", 1)); // -> 1 euro to usd through Israel Bank

$serializedConverter = $converter->serialize(); // convert the object to string, ready for caching/saving/transferring by your own logic
$unserializedConverter = new CurrencySourceFromSerialization($serializedConverter); //obtain the serialized converter from anywhere and deserialize the converter back into use
var_dump($unserializedConverter->getCurrencyList()->convert("ILS", "USD", 4));  //test converter
