Laravel Exchange Rates v4.0.0
New Features
Added config file and support for new API changes (#57)
As of 1st April 2021, the exchangeratesapi.io now requires an API key to use the service. To get an API key, head over to
https://exchangeratesapi.io/pricing. You can sign up for free or use the paid tiers.
Please note that at the time of writing this, you will need to be on at least the 'Basic' plan to make request via HTTPS. You
will also be required to have at least the 'Professional' plan to use the convertBetweenDateRange() and exchangeRateBetweenDateRange()
that this package offers.
You will also be required to have at least the 'Basic' paid plan to use exchangeRate() and convert() methods offered by
this package due to the fact that the free plan does not allow setting a base currency when converting.
After you've got your API key, you can add the following fields to your .env file:
EXCHANGE_RATES_API_URL=https://api.exchangeratesapi.io/v1/
EXCHANGE_RATES_API_KEY={Your-API-Key-Here}
