ISO8583 python library
Project description
#py8583 ###Python library implementing the ISO-8583 banking protocol
This is an implementation of the de-facto protocol for banking applications, iso8583.
#### Status: Things working:
iso-8583/1987 parsing and building
Support of BCD/Binary/ASCII variations in field lengths and field data (where applicable)
Python 2.7 and 3.x support
Things that will work (aka TODO List):
Proper documentation
Fully automated unit testing
1993 and 2003 specifications of the protocol
Things that might work (aka Wishlist):
Predefined (and ready to use) popular implementations
EBCDIC support
#### How to use: The module’s external module dependencies are:
enum34 (for python < 3.4)
This paragraph will eventually have some basic/quick examples too. Until then, please have a look at the IsoHost.py file which contains a simple server which waits for ISO messages, parses them and replies in a hardcoded manner.
#### License: All the work is licensed under LGPL 2.1. Since LGPL is not very python focused, as the copyright holder, my intentions basically boil down to:
You are allowed to use the library as an API in closed source code without it being considered derivative work
You are NOT allowed to modify the library itself without publishing the changes in a compatible license
