Usage

Full Payment Initiation Example: Sending a SEPA Transfer

import { ISO20022 } from 'iso20022.js';

const iso20022 = new ISO20022({
  initiatingParty: {
    name: 'Acme Corporation',
    id: 'ACMECORP',
    account: {
      iban: 'ES1234567890123456789012'
    },
    agent: {
      bic: 'BANKESMMXXX',
      bankAddress: {
        country: 'ES'
      }
    }
  },
});

const creditPaymentInitiation = iso20022.createSEPACreditPaymentInitiation([
  {
    type: 'sepa',
    direction: 'credit',
    amount: 1000,
    currency: 'EUR',
    creditor: {
      name: 'Hans Schmidt',
      account: {
        iban: 'DE1234567890123456789012'
      },
      agent: {
        bic: 'DEUTDEFFXXX'
      },
      address: {
        streetName: 'Example Street',
        buildingNumber: '123',
        townName: 'Berlin',
        countrySubDivision: 'Berlin',
        postalCode: '10115',
        country: 'DE'
      }
    }
  }
]);

console.log(creditPaymentInitiation.toString());

Note that amounts are reresented in the smallest decimal unit ($100.55 is stored as a number 10055) and the decimal precision of a currency can be retrieved from getCurrencyPrecision(Ccy)

Example: Sending an ACH Payment

// Send an ACH Payment Anywhere in the U.S.
const payment = iso20022.createACHCreditPaymentInitiation({
    paymentInstructions: [
        {
        type: 'ach',
        direction: 'credit',
        amount: 1250000, // $12,500.00 Dollars
        currency: 'USD',
        creditor: {
            name: 'Alex Kan',
            account: {
                accountNumber: '333456118812',
            },
            agent: {
                abaRoutingNumber: '021000021',
            }
        },
        remittanceInformation: 'PAYROLL - BIWEEKLY SALARY SR SOFTWARE ENGINEER'
    }],
});

Cash Management: Ingesting a CAMT.053 file

import { CashManagementEndOfDayReport } from 'iso20022.js';

const xml = fs.readFileSync('balance_report.xml', 'utf8');
const report = CashManagementEndOfDayReport.fromXML(xml);

console.log(report.transactions);

Cash Management: Create an account request CAMT.003 file

import { ISO20022 } from 'iso20022.js';
import { CashManagementGetAccount } from 'iso20022.js';

const msg = new CashManagementGetAccount({
  ...
});
const xml = msg.serialize();
const json = msg.toJSON();

const msg2 = CashManagementGetAccount.fromXML(xml);
const msg3 = CashManagementGetAccount.fromJSON(json);

Generic class implementation (preview)

If you need generic implementation to a type of message implemented you can do the following

const type = "CAMT.006"; // can come as an input
import { getISO20022Implementation } from 'iso20022.js';

let impl = getISO20022Implementation(type);
if (impl) {
  const msg1 = impl.fromXml("some xml content");
  const msg2 = impl.fromJSON({ some: object }); // following the ISO format
  const msg3 = new impl({config: object}); // following the internal data definition
  const xml1 = msg1.serialize(); // generate a xml message as string
  const json2 = msg1.toJSON(); // generate a js object that can then be stringify
  const data = msg1.data; // the internal representation of the message
}

Testing

npm run test

Security

iso20022.js is local, open source, and free to use. This means that payment instructions are created on your machine, not on a remote server.

We take security seriously, and are consistently looking for ways to improve. If you have any suggestions or find any security issues, please open an issue.

NOTE: We are tracking the libxmljs vulnerability, a dependency we use in our unit tests and have a plan to deprecate. Note that production use of iso20022.js is not affected by this vulnerability.
