Hi @tekesteg,

Try this package (recently released) http://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/2s245t/swap_v2_exchange_rates_library_for_php/ :

http://florianv.github.io/swap/

https://github.com/florianv/swap

Hope it helps you.

@codeatbusiness, Thank you I will give it a try

@tekesteg Report back :) I might be in the market for one in the next few weeks so would be keen to see how it went for you.

I've just tried this package and it works for me straight out of the box. Just needed to make sure to get the dev version (2.x) at the moment. The 1.x version is a little bit more complicated, but I was able to get that to work easily as well.

@codeatbusiness - Good find! Thanks!

You are welcome! It is great that it works for your needs, and give the thanks to the author of it :-)

Have a good day!

Hello, I'm the author of Swap.

I just released a package to integrate it with Laravel 5 https://github.com/florianv/laravel-swap . It works out of the box with sensible default configuration values.

For me, SWAP isnt working at all. (alwats getting same error & dont know what to do with it) Looking for another package.

Error : Chain Provider Exception in Chains Provider.php line 57:

Looking fo the error... with this code it works....

public function fetchRate(CurrencyPair $currencyPair) { $exceptions = [];

    foreach($this->providers as $provider)
    {
        return $provider->fetchRate($currencyPair);
    }
}

My Package uses Google Finance. https://github.com/secrethash/trickster

I use this PHP package from currencyapi.com, works smoothly!
