CFONB

A parser for CFONB bank files — the French banking interchange standard (Comité Français d'Organisation et de Normalisation Bancaires).

This first version parses the 120-character account statement (relevé de compte): previous balance (01), operations (04), operation details (05), and new balance (07). Amounts are returned as Decimal so money is never represented as a float.

Installation

def deps do
[
{:cfonb, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end

Usage

{:ok, statements} = CFONB.parse(File.read!("releve.txt"))
[statement | _] = statements
statement.account #=> "98765432100"
statement.from_balance #=> #Decimal<-190.40>
statement.to_balance #=> #Decimal<-241.21>
[operation | _] = statement.operations
operation.label #=> "PRLV SEPA TEST CABINET"
operation.amount #=> #Decimal<-32.21>
operation.details.operation_reference #=> "REFERENCE"
operation.details.debtor #=> "INTERNET SFR"
operation.details.fee #=> #Decimal<0.79> (when a FEE detail is present)

The 05 detail records are decoded into a CFONB.Operation.Details struct (qualifiers such as LIB, REF, RCN, NPY, FEE, MMO, …). Unrecognized qualifiers are preserved under details.unknown.

The library also derives banking identifiers and exposes the raw records:

CFONB.Statement.rib(statement) #=> "20041010050500013M02606"
CFONB.Statement.iban(statement) #=> "FR1420041010050500013M02606"
CFONB.Operation.type_code(operation) #=> "B1D" (interbank code + credit/debit)
statement.begin_raw #=> the original "01" line
CFONB.Statement.raw(statement) #=> the statement's records, rebuilt

Other entry points:

CFONB.parse_operation(input) # parse a standalone 04 (+ its 05s)
CFONB.parse(input, optimistic: true) # skip invalid records, best effort
CFONB.parse!(input) # raising variants

CFONB.parse/1 returns {:ok, [%CFONB.Statement{}]} or {:error, reason}. Use CFONB.parse!/1 if you prefer raising on invalid input.

See FORMAT.md for the exact CFONB 120 field layout.

Émission — transfer orders (CFONB 160)

The library also generates transfer orders (ordres de virement) in the CFONB 160-character format — a file sent to the bank. Build a CFONB.Virement with its beneficiaries and call encode/1:

order = %CFONB.Virement{
numero_emetteur: "123456",
nom_emetteur: "ACME SARL",
iban: "FR1420041010050500013M02606",
beneficiaires: [
%CFONB.Virement.Beneficiaire{
nom: "JEAN DUPONT",
iban: "FR7630004000031234567890143",
montant: Decimal.new("1250.00"),
libelle: "SALAIRE JUILLET"
}
]
}
{:ok, %{file: file, total: total}} = CFONB.Virement.encode(order)
# file -> the 03/06/08 records, 160 chars each, CRLF-joined
# total -> #Decimal<1250.00>

Bank coordinates are given as an IBAN (decomposed and key-checked) or as split RIB components (etablissement / guichet / compte). Amounts are Decimal euros, encoded as unsigned cents. This first version emits the ordinary transfer (code opération 02). Use CFONB.Virement.encode!/1 for the raising variant. See FORMAT-VIREMENT.md for the field layout.

Credits & license

Reimplemented from the official CFONB specification, with a data model inspired by and compatible with the Ruby gem pennylane-hq/cfonb (MIT) — its test files are reused as a parsing oracle. Released under the MIT license.
