Welcome to Paragoz gem! In this directory, you'll find the files you need to be able to package up your Ruby library into a gem. Put your Ruby code in the file lib/paragoz. To experiment with that code, run bin/console for an interactive prompt.
It will parse currency JSON data from fixer.io currency api and calculate exchange rate, cost etc. for you.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'paragoz'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install paragoz
# To define a usd variable refers to 1 USD object
# Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'usd')
# there is 4 named parameters:
# code: String(default 'try') amount: Float(default: 1.0) data: JSON(default: nil)
# and date: String(default: nil) if you don't give date parameters it will return
# latest rate values in actual day.
# Date format: 'YYYY-MM-DD'
# you can use customized json formatted as on http://api.fixer.io/latest?base=USD
# (Also you can pick any currency code after '=' sign when visiting link.)
# Currency Object Instances
# data raw data hash
# date time object
# rates
# costs
usd = Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'usd', amount: 15.0)
usd_other = Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'usd', amount: 5.0, date: '2011-06-06') # 5 USD object
# You can compare 2 same type currency object with different date:
# 1999's oldest values you can access
# Comparation object instances:
# comparation_rates
# comparation costs
comparation = Paragoz.compare_currencies(usd, usd_other)
tr1 = Paragoz.new_currency
tr2 = Paragoz.new_currency(date: '2016-06-09')
comparation = Paragoz.compare_currencies(tr1, tr2)
# To define a euro variables refers to 50 EURO object
euro = Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'eur', amount: 50.0)
euro_other = Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'eur', amount: 2.5) # 2.5 EURO object
tr = Paragoz.new_currency # Returns Currency Object as 1 TRY
tr_other = Paragoz.new_currency(amount: 750.0) # 750 TRY object
# To see all rates in formatted view
# customized to_s
puts usd
puts euro
puts tr
# To see cost of buying a foreign currency
# currency_object.print_costs
usd.print_costs
euro.print_costs
tr.print_costs
# You can calculate cost of buying a spesific amount of a specific foreign currency
# 3 parameters: currency_code & calculate_amount (default: 1.0)
# 3rd true for extra info
tr.calculate_amount('usd', 120.0)
# To return a spesific change rate as a number give currency code as a parameter
# To see all currency codes: Paragoz::CURRENCY_CODES will return an array
tr.take_rate('aud')
euro.take_rate('jpy')
usd.take_rate('sek')
#For exchanging your currency:
currency = Paragoz.new_currency(code: 'usd', amount: 0.50)
currency.exchange_to('eur') # seme result with take_rate
currency.exchange_to('eur', 5) # Returns 5 USD's currency value
# To exchange a currency object to another currency object
# you can give second parameter as true to see more info
sell = tr_other.currency_to_currency(usd)
buy = usd_other.currency_to_currency(euro_other)
test = usd_other.currency_to_currency(euro, true)After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
