fints-institute-db

This is a simple crate providing a convenient and safe interface to FinTS information of German banks. During the build it will download a CSV file with all the banks which it will then put into the library itself so that no extra files have to be taken care of.

Usage

Put this into your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
fints-institute-db = "1.0"

Then to use it:

use fints_institute_db::get_bank_by_bank_code;

if let Some(bank) = get_bank_by_bank_code("12070000") {
    println!("{:?}", bank.pin_tan_address);
}

Other use case, find bank by BIC:

use fints_institute_db::get_bank_by_bic;

if let Some(bank) = get_bank_by_bic("GENODEM1MEN") {
    println!("{:?}", bank.pin_tan_address);
}

Command line utility

Additionally this crate includes a CLI tool for your convenience. Use it with

cd fints-institute-db-cli
cargo run
