An unofficial SDK for the ExchangeRatesAPI.

exchangeratesapi's Issues

No longer that free

Apparently, "the awesome, free ExchangeRatesAPI" is no longer that free. As of today, our services relying upon this API started to fail, and I discovered that exchangeratesapi.io started to require API key, and only 250 requests/month are free. Everyone needs to run their server.

Undefined property: stdClass::$base

Just had an issue here, i think its related to the Endpoint Response?

How to produce the error

        $lookup = new ExchangeRatesAPI();
        $rates  = $lookup->addRate('USD')->setBaseCurrency('SGD')->fetch();
        $rate = $rates->getRates();
        echo $rate;

Screenshoot

Libraries Used
"guzzlehttp/guzzle": "^6.4"
"benmajor/exchange-rates-api": "^1.0"
"php": "^7.1.3"

PHP is not supported

I noticed in the list
private $_currencies = [ 'USD', 'GBP', 'EUR', 'JPY', 'BGN', 'CZK', 'DKK', 'HUF', 'PLN', 'RON', 'SEK', 'CHF', 'ISK', 'NOK', 'HRK', 'RUB', 'TRY', 'AUD', 'BRL', 'CAD', 'CNY', 'HKD', 'IDR', 'ILS', 'INR', 'KRW', 'MXN', 'MYR', 'NZD', 'BHP', 'SGD', 'THB', 'ZAR' ];

There are BHP currencies but no PHP
So is there a mistake here?

Exchangeratesapi.io now supports many more currencies

The library lists 33 supported currencies, but the service now supports 168 currencies now.

Cannot call functions from ExchangeRatesAPI.php

Hi,

I am trying to call some functions (E.g. trying to get the base currency below) from the ones available in ExchangeRatesAPI.php to my Wordpress site but they break my site when I do so. Whe I fetch the whole data body using Worpress function wp_remote_get() I can see the expected outcome but I need to show only one rate at a time and take 2 parameters for the 2 currencies so that's why I am trying to use the ExchangeRatesAPI.php functions. Am I doing something wrong or is there any other issue I should be aware of? Thanks in advance for any answer

//https://github.com/benmajor/ExchangeRatesAPI#3-getting-started
require_once 'C:\ExchangeRatesAPI-master\src\ExchangeRatesAPI.php';


$request = wp_remote_get( 'https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/latest?base=USD' );
if( is_wp_error( $request ) ) {
	return false; // Bail early
}
$body = wp_remote_retrieve_body( $request );
$data = json_decode( $body );
//echo "<pre>"; //this is for cleaning the data in visualitation
//print_r($data); //print output

$lookup = new ExchangeRatesAPI();
$base  = $lookup->getBaseCurrency();

Fetching exchange rate for specific date does not work

Version: 4.2.0

After upgrading from v3 to v4, fetching exchange rate on a specific date does not work, using code below:

$lookup = new ExchangeRatesAPI($key, false);
$lookup->setBaseCurrency('USD');
$lookup->addRate('EUR');

$lookup->setFetchDate('2024-01-01');
$rates = $lookup->fetch();

Exception:

BenMajor\ExchangeRatesAPI\Exception

Undefined property: stdClass::$timestamp

It seems, using this, the $date is used as API endpoint, as per

ExchangeRatesAPI/src/ExchangeRatesAPI.php

Line 379 in e545948

$endpoint = is_null($this->fetchDate) ? self::ENDPOINT_MOST_RECENT_EXCHANGE_RATES : $this->fetchDate;

Add GuzzleHttp\Client as dependency on composer.json

When the library is installed through composer and the project does not have GuzzleHttp previously installed, the error "'GuzzleHttp\Client' not found' is thrown.
