MT940/MT942 parser for Elixir

This is a library to parse MT940 and MT942 account statements. It was ported from Ruby and is based on Thies C. Arntzen's mt940 library. The MT94x category of SWIFT messages are meant for customer statements and cash management:

• MT940 is the standard structured Customer Statement Message format (end-of-day statement file which details all entries booked to a bank account). Usually you receive a customer statement message the next morning of the day of business.
• MT942 is the standard structured Interim Transaction Report format. MT942 gives a report of the debits/credits any given time of the day.

Basic usage

Include a dependency in your mix.exs:

deps: [{:mt940, "~> 1.1.2"}, …]

use MT940 and parse! the raw input:

defmodule BankAccount do
  use MT940

  def balance(raw) when is_binary(raw) do
    %{amount: amount, currency: currency} = raw
    |> parse!
    |> Enum.at(-1)
    |> MT940.CustomerStatementMessage.closing_balance
    "#{amount} #{currency}"
  end

  def transactions(raw) when is_binary(raw) do
    raw
    |> parse!
    |> Enum.flat_map(&MT940.CustomerStatementMessage.statement_lines/1)
  end
end

If you want to have a more detailed, low-level list of MT940 commands, use the MT940.Parser.parse! command.
