NAME

Finance::OFX::Parse::Simple - Parse a simple OFX file or scalar

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

use Finance::OFX::Parse::Simple;

my $parser = Finance::OFX::Parse::Simple->new;

my $data_from_file     = $parser->parse_file("myfile.ofx"); # $data is a reference to a list of hash references

my $data_from_scalar   = $parser->parse_scalar($ofx_data);

METHODS

new

Create a new parser object.

parse_file

Takes a filename as an argument, slurps the file into memory, parses it and returns a reference to a list of hash references. Each hash reference contains two keys: 'account_id' which is the account number, and 'transactions' which is a reference to a list of hash references, each containing details for a single transaction.

Returns false if no filename was provided, the file is not a plain file, or the file is not openable.

parse_scalar

Takes a scalar as an argument containing OFX data. Returns a reference to a list of hash references. Each hash reference contains two keys: 'account_id' which is the account number, and 'transactions' which is a reference to a list of hash references, each containing details for a single transaction.

Returns false if no non-empty scalar is provided.
