Changing the request mode

For changing the request mode simply add request_mode argument at the end of the method args. The default request mode is scrapping (which incredibly resulted to be faster than SOAP and with 24/7 availability). You can change this like the example given below:

# Scrapping mode
day_rate    = BcnNi.exchange_day(2017, 9, 15, request_mode: :scrapping)
month_rate  = BcnNi.exchange_month(2017, 9, request_mode: :scrapping)
# SOAP request mode
day_rate    = BcnNi.exchange_day(2017, 9, 15, request_mode: :soap)
month_rate  = BcnNi.exchange_month(2017, 9, request_mode: :soap)
