```[![CRAN status](https://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/priceR)](https://cran.r-project.org/package=priceR)
[![R build status](https://github.com/stevecondylios/priceR/workflows/R-CMD-check/badge.svg)](https://github.com/stevecondylios/priceR/actions?workflow=R-CMD-check)`priceR` contains 4 types of capabilties:
- *Exchange Rates* - easily retrieve exchange rates for immediate use
- *Inflation* - easily inflate past (nominal) values into present day (real) prices
- *Regular Expressions* - easily extract common pricing patterns from free text
- *Formatting* - easily handle currencies in written work, including Rmarkdown documents### Installation
Installation via CRAN `install.packages("priceR")`
```{r message=FALSE}
library(priceR)
library(tidyverse)
options(scipen = 100); options(digits = 6)
```# Exchange rates
### Setup
Set up only takes a minute and is free for 100 requests per account per calendar month.
Go to https://exchangerate.host/, create a free account, and replace `7e5e3140140bd8e4f4650cc41fc772c0` with your API key in the following, and run once per R session.
```r
Sys.setenv("EXCHANGERATEHOST_ACCESS_KEY"="7e5e3140140bd8e4f4650cc41fc772c0")
```### Current exchange rates
View the current exchange rates for 170 currencies (see them all by running `currencies()`):
```{r message=FALSE}
exchange_rate_latest("USD") %>%
head(10)```
### Historical exchange rates
Here's an example of how to get exchange rates for some currency pairs:
```{r message=FALSE}
# Retrieve AUD to USD exchange rates
au <- historical_exchange_rates("AUD", to = "USD",
start_date = "2013-01-01", end_date = "2023-06-30")# Retrieve AUD to EUR exchange rates
ae <- historical_exchange_rates("AUD", to = "EUR",
start_date = "2013-01-01", end_date = "2023-06-30")# Combine
cur <- au %>% left_join(ae, by = "date")head(cur)
```
And to plot the exchange rate data:
```{r message=FALSE}
library(ggplot2)
library(ggthemes)
library(ggrepel)cur %>%
rename(aud_to_usd = one_AUD_equivalent_to_x_USD,
aud_to_eur = one_AUD_equivalent_to_x_EUR) %>%

) +
scale_x_date(date_labels = "%b %Y", date_breaks = "6 month") +

# Inflation
### Adjust prices for inflation
`adjust_for_inflation()` automatically converts between nominal and real dollars,
or in/deflates prices from one year's prices to another's.It works for 304 countries / areas (see them with all by running `show_countries()`).
```{r message=FALSE}
set.seed(123)
nominal_prices <- rnorm(10, mean=10, sd=3)
years <- round(rnorm(10, mean=2006, sd=5))
df <- data.frame(years, nominal_prices)df$in_2008_dollars <- adjust_for_inflation(nominal_prices, years, "US", to_date = 2008)
df
```# Extraction helpers
These helpers let you extract useful *numeric* data from messy free text (character) data.
### Extract salary from free text
`extract_salary()` extracts salaries as useful numeric data from non-standard free text
```{r}
messy_salary_data <- c(
"$90000 - $120000 per annum",
"$90k - $110k p.a.",
"$110k - $120k p.a. + super + bonus + benefits",
"$140K-$160K + Super + Bonus/Equity",
"$200,000 - $250,000 package",
"c$200K Package Neg",
"$700 p/d", # daily
"$120 - $140 (Inc. Super) per hour", # hourly
"Competitive" # nothing useful (will return NA)
)messy_salary_data %>%
extract_salary(include_periodicity = TRUE,
salary_range_handling = "average")```
# Formatting helpers
### Neatly format currencies
`format_currency()` makes nicely formats numeric data:
```{r message=FALSE}
format_currency("22500000", "¥")
```
`format_dollars()` is the same but exclusively for dollars:
```{r}
format_dollars(c("445.50", "199.99"), digits = 2)
