python - Django - Internationalization of rates -
i'm creating website django 1.8 , i've met detail, must display price list in local currency of country in displayed not know how convert between prices (eg, equivalence between price in usd , eur) please me.
thank you.
as others have said, currency conversion can dangerous currency market volatile , changing. in order want, you'll need few things:
- an ip based geolocation service determine currency might used to. these unreliable @ best, , might not currency user wants. there lots of these services, ranging cheap "only fortune 500 companies can afford these". research , figure out best you. don't work ipv6, you'll have hole there.
- a currency conversion api. see stackoverflow answer. perhaps more reliable ip geolocation services, still should considered unreliable.
you want clear , warn users conversion rates estimates. there should big asterisk , warning next every estimated currency conversion if @ all.
if you're taking payments, take them in whatever currency want, , bank final conversion.
generally, want bad idea every angle.
