Uruguayan Exchange Rates

With this gem you can get the official Uruguayan exchange rates (buy and sell values) for multiple currencies. Data is taken from Banco República. This gem was designed for a project where I needed to update the price of some elements daily, using the official Uruguayan exchange rates.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'uruguayan_exchange_rates'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install uruguayan_exchange_rates

Usage

Usage is simple, just call the exchange_rates method with a valid key:

UruguayanExchangeRates.exchange_rates(:UYU_USD)

It should return a hash with two elements, buy and sell values respectively:

{:buy=>28.0, :sell=>28.8} 

Supported keys are:

{
  :UYU_USD => 'Dólar',
  :UYU_EUR => 'Euro',
  :UYU_ARS => 'Peso Argentino',
  :UYU_BRL => 'Real',
  :USD_GPD => 'Dólares USA por Libra esterlina',
  :CHF_USD => 'Francos suizos por Dólar',
  :JPY_USD => 'Yens por Dólar',
  :USD_EUR => 'Dólares USA por Euro',
  :ARS_USD => 'Pesos Argentinos por Dólar',
  :BRL_USD => 'Reales por Dólar',
  :PYG_USD => 'Guaraníes por Dólar',
  :UYU_UI => 'Unidad Indexada',

}
