Currency Manager

There is a Currency facade you may use for common currency management tasks. This facade resolves to the Responsiv\Currency\Classes\CurrencyManager instance by default.

You may use the convert method on the Currency facade to convert a currency value.

// Converts the default currency to AUD
Currency::convert(100, 'AUD');

// Converts explicitly the USD currency to AUD
Currency::convert(100, 'AUD', 'USD');

The getDefault returns the default currency model, and getDefaultCode returns the default currency code.

$default = Currency::getDefault();

$defaultCode = Currency::getDefaultCode();

The getPrimary returns the default currency model, and getPrimaryCode returns the default currency code.

$primary = Currency::getPrimary();

$primaryCode = Currency::getPrimaryCode();

The getActive returns the default currency model, and getActiveCode returns the default currency code.

$active = Currency::getActive();

$activeCode = Currency::getActiveCode();

Currency Model

A currency object represents a Responsiv\Currency\Models\Currency model object.

The fromBaseValue converts a currency, for example, converts 100 to 1.00.

// Returns 1.00
$currency->fromBaseValue(100);

The toBaseValue converts a currency to a base value, for example, converts 1.00 to 100.

// Returns 100
$currency->toBaseValue(1.00);
