About The Project

IBAN Beaver is a webapp that verifies an IBAN upon request. The response is a json object with information about the associated bank (if any). It is free to use, but keep in mind that this is just a project to learn about webby things and databases. Don't sue me if you use this for billing and something goes wrong.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Only tested on GNU Linux.

• rust / cargo
• base-devel / build-essential / your distros dev meta-package
• diesel_cli, needed for diesel migrations. See their doc.
• sqlite3-dev

   cargo install diesel_cli # generic
   sudo pacman -S diesel-cli sqlite3-dev # arch

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/rmsthebest/iban_beaver.git

2. Run!

   diesel setup # creates db
   diesel migration run # create the tables. can use redo to drop table first
   cargo run --release

There's also a docker container now, if you prefer that.

Usage

Server Side

See step 2 in Installation By default a resources directory is expected to exist from where you are running iban_beaver. If you install it somewhere else like /usr/local/bin you may want to run it like this:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/iban_beaver/resources
mv /path/to/db.sqlite ~/.local/share/iban_beaver/resources
env IBAN_BEAVER_RESOURCES=~/.local/share/iban_beaver/resources iban_beaver

Fill database without downloading new data, you should never have to do this.

curl 0.0.0.0:3030/re-fill/<country>
curl 0.0.0.0:3030/re-fill/DE

Roadmap

I'm not that ambitious. If you assume current status is all you're going to get you are most likely right. If someone opens an issue I might work on that.

Contributing

This is a best effort project, I might move on with my life and never see your contribution.

1. Fork the Project
2. Create your Feature Branch (git checkout -b feature/AmazingFeature)
3. Commit your Changes (git commit -m 'Add some AmazingFeature')
4. Push to the Branch (git push origin feature/AmazingFeature)
5. Open a Pull Request

Steps to add support for a country

1. Create src/country/<countrycode>.rs
2. Satisfy the country trait (copy a similar country and fix what needs to be fixed)
3. Add country to match statement in src/country/mod.rs
4. Test the update/fill/iban commands. Valid ibans for testing can be found here
