=head1 NAME
Finance::Quote::CurrencyRates::OpenExchange - Obtain currency rates from
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Finance::Quote;
$q = Finance::Quote->new(currency_rates =>
{order => ['OpenExchange'], openexchange => {API_KEY => ...}}
);
$value = $q->currency('18.99 EUR', 'USD');
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module fetches currency rates from https://openexchangerates.org and
provides data to Finance::Quote to convert the first argument to the equivalent
value in the currency indicated by the second argument.
This module caches the currency rates for the lifetime of the quoter object,
unless 'cache => 0' is included in the 'openexchange' options hash.
=head1 Currency Module Selection
The Finance::Quote currency method to be used can also be selected by setting
the environment variable FQ_CURRENCY.
export FQ_CURRENCY=OpenExchange
=head1 API_KEY
https://openexchangerates.org requires users to register and obtain an API key. Their free plan allows 1000 queries per month.
The API key can be set by setting the environment variable OPENEXCHANGE_API_KEY or by providing a 'openexchange' hash inside the
'currency_rates' hash to Finance::Quote->new as in the above example.
=head1 Terms & Conditions
Use of https://openexchangerates.org is governed by any terms & conditions of
that site.
Finance::Quote is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2,
which explicitly carries a "No Warranty" clause.
