Introduction

The Currency Exchange package is an open-source PHP library for Laravel that simplifies managing currency exchange operations and transactions. If your application involves working with currencies or financial transactions between currencies, this package provides an efficient solution.

This package is dedicated to my late father, and I hope it helps improve the software development experience.

Features

• Manage currencies: Add, update, delete, and view currencies.
• Manage exchange transactions: Add, update, view exchange transactions.
• Flexible API for currency and transaction data in JSON format.
• Easy to use and works seamlessly with Laravel 9.0+.

Installation

1. Install via Composer

Install the package in your Laravel application by running the following command in your project directory:

composer require khetamhamdy/currency-exchange

2. Add the Service Provider (if needed)

If you're not using Laravel's package auto-discovery feature, add the service provider manually in the config/app.php file under the providers array:

'providers' => [
    // Other providers...
    KhetamHamdy\CurrencyExchange\Providers\CurrencyExchangeServiceProvider::class,
],

3. Run Migrations

To create the necessary database tables, execute the following command:

php artisan migrate

This will run the migrations provided by the package to set up the required database schema.

Usage

1. Currency Management

Display All Currencies:

use KhetamHamdy\CurrencyExchange\Services\CurrencyService;

$currencyService = app('currency.service');
$currencies = $currencyService->getAllCurrencies();

Add a New Currency:

$currencyService->addCurrency([
    'name' => 'US Dollar',
    'code' => 'USD',
]);

Update a Currency:

$currencyService->updateCurrency($id, [
    'name' => 'Euro',
    'code' => 'EUR',
]);

Delete a Currency:

$currencyService->deleteCurrency($id);

2. Transaction Management

Display All Transactions:

use KhetamHamdy\CurrencyExchange\Services\ExchangeTransactionService;

$exchangeService = app('exchange.service');
$transactions = $exchangeService->listTransactions();

Add a New Transaction:

$exchangeService->createTransaction([
    'from' => 1, // Original currency ID
    'to' => 2,   // Target currency ID
    'rate' => 1.2,
    'date' => now(),
]);

Update a Transaction:

$exchangeService->updateTransaction($id, [
    'from' => 1,
    'to' => 2,
    'rate' => 1.3,
    'date' => now(),
]);

Notes

• Ensure your application meets the package requirements, including Laravel version 9.0 or higher.
• Remember to run php artisan migrate after installing the package to set up the database tables.
