Introduction

django-currencies allows you to define different currencies, and includes template tags/filters to allow easy conversion between them. Usage

Once you have everything set up (read the included INSTALL.txt and docs/), you will be able to use the following code in your templates:

{% change_currency [price] [currency_code] %}

# i.e:

{% change_currency product.price "USD" %}

# or if we have the currencies.context_processors.currencies
# available:

{% change_currency product.price CURRENCY.code %}

or use the filter:

{{ [price]|currency:[currency] }}

# i.e.:

{{ product.price|currency:"USD" }}

or set the CURRENCY context variable with a POST to the included view:

{% url currencies_set_currency [currency] %}

Running Tests

I'm using nose along with nosedjango

The settings.py is inside the tests/ directory, so you'll need to cd to it, and:

nosetests -v --with-django
