@fin.cx/csvparser turns CSV exports from financial providers into normalized monetary transactions. It currently includes parsers for Commerzbank, Fidor, PayPal, and Spendesk and exposes TypeScript classes that fit the @fin.cx/portablefinance CSV parser interface.

Installation

pnpm add @fin.cx/csvparser

Supported Providers

Provider	Class	Input Style
Commerzbank	`CsvCommerzbank`	CSV descriptor with `name` and `contentString`
Fidor Bank	`CsvFidor`	CSV descriptor with `name` and `contentString`
PayPal	`CsvPayPal`	CSV descriptor with `name` and `contentString`
Spendesk	`CsvSpendesk`	CSV string, file, directory, or descriptor

Every parser returns IMonetaryTransaction[] from getTransactions(). Provider-specific parsing details are kept internally while the public transaction shape stays portable across payment sources.

Quick Start

import { CsvCommerzbank, CsvFidor, CsvPayPal, CsvSpendesk } from '@fin.cx/csvparser';

const parser = new CsvCommerzbank();

parser.addCsvDecriptor({
  name: 'commerzbank.csv',
  contentString: csvFileContent,
});

const transactions = await parser.getTransactions();

The descriptor method name is addCsvDecriptor because it follows the upstream @fin.cx/portablefinance interface.

Parsing Descriptor-Based Providers

Commerzbank, Fidor, and PayPal use the same descriptor workflow:

import { CsvPayPal } from '@fin.cx/csvparser';

const paypalParser = new CsvPayPal();

paypalParser.addCsvDecriptor({
  name: 'paypal.csv',
  contentString: paypalCsv,
});

const paypalTransactions = await paypalParser.getTransactions();

Each resulting transaction contains:

{
  id: string,
  data: {
    paymentAccountId: string,
    originTransactionId: string,
    originAccountId: string,
    additionalIds: string[],
    date: number,
    amount: number,
    description: string,
    name: string,
  }
}

Parsing Spendesk CSV

Spendesk supports descriptor parsing plus convenience constructors for strings, files, and directories.

import { CsvSpendesk } from '@fin.cx/csvparser';

const spendeskParser = await CsvSpendesk.fromCsvString(spendeskCsv);
const spendeskTransactions = await spendeskParser.getTransactions();

From a single CSV file:

const spendeskParser = await CsvSpendesk.fromFile('./exports/Spendesk.csv');
const transactions = await spendeskParser.getTransactions();

From a directory containing files whose names start with Spendesk:

const spendeskParser = await CsvSpendesk.fromDir('./exports');
const transactions = await spendeskParser.getTransactions();

Spendesk also exposes getLoads() and getDebits() for provider-specific filtering before converting to portable transactions.

Merging Spendesk Exports

import { CsvSpendesk } from '@fin.cx/csvparser';

const january = await CsvSpendesk.fromFile('./exports/Spendesk-January.csv');
const february = await CsvSpendesk.fromFile('./exports/Spendesk-February.csv');

await january.concat(february);

const mergedTransactions = await january.getTransactions();
