Django 1.7 gives deprication warnings:

\exchange\managers.py:4: RemovedInDjango18Warning: ExchangeRateManager.get_query_set method should be renamed get_queryset.

Please add more powerful free alternative for OXR (http://bank.exchange)

The Currency model containing just the currency code is unnecessary. We can directly use the currency codes for source and target in ExchangeRate

We can maintain the set of currency codes in a python module.

It looks like the package here https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-exchange is not the latest, nor does it include some of the functionality listed in the README on that site, namely the update_exchange_rates command.

CommandError: No module named openexchangerates when running update_rates

This package doesn't seem to be compatible with the latest version of Django 1.9.

Are there any plans to update this?

Is it possible to add a new field in the ExchangeRate model to track the date for a particular exchange rate? That way we can track exchange rates over time. Adding a date field to the ExchangeRate model would make this easy to do.

What are your thoughts on this?

CommandError: Incorrect string value: '\xCA\xBBanga' for column 'name' at row 1

Often during development it is necessary to clear your cache (e.g. redis-cli FLUSHALL) but there is no need to refetch and repopulate the database just to populate the cache.

This is not working

theres an error with syncdb
from . import models
ImportError: cannot import name 'models'

I'm using Django 1.8 and this error is thrown when our scheduler runs the update_rates task.

The code that uses commit_unless_managed is on exchange/utils.py.

Thanks.
