EDI Parser Stups

edi-parser: a lightweight EDI file parser

This package provides a simple-to-use Python interface to EDI 835 Health Care Claim Payment and Remittance Advice files.

Installation

Binary installers for the latest released version are at the Python Package Index. Please note that you need to run Python 3.9 or higher to install the edi-835-parser.

pip install edi-parser2-stups==1.0.0

Usage

To parse an EDI file simply execute the parse function or parsestream function when passing a file stream object.

from ediparser import parse

path = '~/Desktop/my_edi_file.txt'
transaction_set = parse(path)

The parse function also works on a directory path.

from ediparser import parse

path = '~/Desktop/my_directory_of_edi_files'
transaction_sets = parse(path)

In both cases, parse returns an instance of the TransactionSets class. This is the class you manipulate depending on your needs. For example, say you want to work with the transaction sets data as a pd.DataFrame.

from ediparser import parse

path = '~/Desktop/my_directory_of_edi_files'
transaction_sets = parse(path)

data = transaction_sets.to_dataframe()

And then save that pd.DataFrame as a .csv file.

data.to_csv('~/Desktop/my_edi_file.csv')

The complete set of TransactionSets functionality can be found by inspecting the TransactionSets class found at edi_parser/transaction_set/transaction_sets.py

Tests

Example EDI 835 files can be found in tests/test_edi_835/files. To run the tests use pytest.
