ofxparse
========

ofxparse is a parser for Open Financial Exchange (.ofx) format files.  OFX
files are available from almost any online banking site, so they work well
if you want to pull together your finances from multiple sources.  Online
trading accounts also provide account statements in OFX files.

There are three different types of OFX files, called BankAccount,
CreditAccount and InvestmentAccount files.  This library has been tested with
real-world samples of all three types.  If you find a file that does not work
with this library, please consider contributing the file so ofxparse can be
improved.  See the Help! section below for directions on how to do this.

Example Usage
=============

Here's a sample program

.. code:: python

  from ofxparse import OfxParser
  with codecs.open('file.ofx') as fileobj:
      ofx = OfxParser.parse(fileobj)
  
  # The OFX object
  
  ofx.account               # An Account object

  # AccountType
  # (Unknown, Bank, CreditCard, Investment)

  # Account
  
  account = ofx.account 
  account.account_id        # The account number
  account.number            # The account number (deprecated -- returns account_id)
  account.routing_number    # The bank routing number
  account.branch_id         # Transit ID / branch number
  account.type              # An AccountType object

  statement.balance             # The money in the account as of the statement date
  statement.available_balance   # The money available from the account as of the statement date
  statement.transactions        # A list of Transaction objects

  # InvestmentStatement

  statement = account.statement  
  statement.positions           # A list of Position objects
  statement.transactions        # A list of InvestmentTransaction objects

  # Transaction
  
  for transaction in statement.transactions:

    transaction.date
    transaction.user_date
    transaction.amount
    transaction.id
    transaction.memo
    transaction.sic
    transaction.mcc
    transaction.checknum

  # InvestmentTransaction
  
  for transaction in statement.transactions:
    transaction.type

    transaction.total
    transaction.tferaction

  # Positions

Help!
=====

Sample ``.ofx`` and ``.qfx`` files are very useful.  If you want to help us out,
please edit all identifying information from the file and then email it to
jseutter dot ofxparse at gmail dot com.

Development
===========

Prerequisites::
  # Ubuntu
  sudo apt-get install python-beautifulsoup python-nose python-coverage-test-runner
  # Python 3 (pip)
  pip install BeautifulSoup4 six lxml nose coverage
  # Python 2 (pip)
  pip install BeautifulSoup six nose coverage

The `six` package is required for python 2.X compatibility

Tests:
Simply running the ``nosetests`` command should run the tests.

.. code:: bash

  nosetests

If you don't have nose installed, the following might also work:

.. code:: bash

  python -m unittest tests.test_parse

Test Coverage Report:

.. code:: bash

  coverage run -m unittest tests.test_parse
  
  # text report
  coverage report

  # html report
  coverage html
  firefox htmlcov/index.html
