Welcome to Pybankreader’s documentation!¶
The pybankreader library is a toolkit to create model-based representation of structured exported plain-text files.
The initial intention is to be able to load various exported repors, that you get from internet banking applications.
Currently, there are two formats supported in the library itself, on top of the framework for rolling your own: GPC and BBF. However, as stated, the library was designed with generic application in mind, it’s very easy to add additional formats.
The data-format that the library expects is a text file, that is structured, with one line per record (however, you can have any number of different records in such a file). Together, individual records form a report. All of this is handled transparently, so in the end, you can do something super-easy like this (report.custom_record and report.data are fields defined by a report, not the library itself):
report = MyReport(initial_data=file_like)
name_of_report = report.custom_record.name
for x in report.data:
x.name
x.surname
You will find more information about how to use this library in the docs.
You can get the library as a package from PyPI or source from Github:
- Using pip: pip install pybankreader
- Source from Github: git clone https://github.com/baldman/pybankreader.git
