The @fin.cx/opendata library is a versatile tool that empowers developers to integrate comprehensive open business data into their systems. This library is particularly tailored for German companies, offering functionalities that include creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting business records as well as processing large volumes of JSONL data from external sources. In addition to core database operations via MongoDB, the library provides integration with web-based services, primarily through a hands-on Handelsregister processor that utilizes browser automation for searching and downloading documents.

In this section, we will extensively detail multiple usage scenarios, ensuring that every feature the module offers is thoroughly explored. All examples in this documentation employ ECMAScript Module (ESM) syntax and TypeScript, highlighting proper asynchronous handling, error management, and advanced integration with other dependencies. We will walk you through environment setup, initializing the package, managing business records, processing bulk JSONL data, interacting with the Handelsregister for on-demand document retrieval, and much more. Each example is constructed to expose every nuance of the module's behavior and usage.

For clarity, we will split this section into multiple parts:

Environment Setup and Initializing the Library
Managing Business Records (CRUD Operations)
Bulk Data Processing and Importing via JSONL Streams
Integrating with the Handelsregister: Detailed Demonstrations
Advanced Examples: Combined Operations and Edge Cases
Error Handling and Data Validation
Testing and Automated Workflows

Throughout these examples, we will examine how each class and method interacts with the underlying MongoDB database and the system's file structure. We assume you have a running MongoDB instance and that your environment is configured with the necessary variables.

────────────────────────────────────────────

1. Environment Setup and Initializing the Library

Before diving into any operations, ensure that your development environment is properly configured. The @fin.cx/opendata library mandates several environment variables for connecting to your MongoDB instance. For a smooth experience, it is advisable to use a .env file or any secure secrets management tool that suits your workflow. The required environment variables include:

• MONGODB_URL – The connection string URL for your MongoDB instance.
• MONGODB_NAME – The name of the database that the module will interact with.
• MONGODB_USER – MongoDB username required for authentication.
• MONGODB_PASS – The password for the MongoDB user.

Below is an example .env file for local development:

MONGODB_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017
MONGODB_NAME=opendataDB
MONGODB_USER=myUser
MONGODB_PASS=myPass

Once these variables are set, the library can fetch them using the integrated qenv tool. The following code snippet demonstrates how to import and initialize the library:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

const startOpenDataInstance = async () => {
  const openData = new OpenData();
  
  try {
    console.log('Starting OpenData instance...');
    await openData.start();
    console.log('OpenData instance started successfully.');

    // Invoke sample operations:
    await demonstrateBusinessRecordsOperations(openData);
    await demonstrateBulkDataProcessing(openData);
    await demonstrateHandelsregisterOperations(openData);

  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error during initialization:', error);
  } finally {
    console.log('Stopping OpenData instance...');
    await openData.stop();
    console.log('OpenData instance stopped.');
  }
};

startOpenDataInstance();

In this snippet, we import the OpenData class from the module and execute its start and stop routines to ensure that the MongoDB connection is properly initialized and terminated. Notice that we move on to different demonstration functions that showcase individual features.

────────────────────────────────────────────

2. Managing Business Records (CRUD Operations)

Central to the @fin.cx/opendata library is the management of business records. The BusinessRecord class encapsulates data pertaining to companies, allowing you to create new records, retrieve existing ones, update information, and delete entries when necessary. The following examples illustrate each operation within a robust context.

a) Creating a Business Record

Creating a new business record in the openData instance is straightforward. You instantiate a new record and populate its data properties with relevant details such as company name, address, registration number, managing directors, and much more. The sample below uses the embedded CBusinessRecord manager to generate a new record:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const createBusinessRecordExample = async (openData: OpenData) => {
  const businessRecord = new openData.CBusinessRecord();

  businessRecord.data = {
    name: "Innovative Solutions GmbH",
    address: "Musterstraße 1",
    postalCode: "10115",
    city: "Berlin",
    country: "Germany",
    phone: "+49 30 123456",
    email: "contact@innovativesolutions.de",
    website: "https://innovativesolutions.de",
    businessType: "GmbH",
    registrationId: "District court Berlin HRB 987654",
    legalForm: "GmbH",
    managingDirectors: ["Max Mustermann", "Erika Musterfrau"],
    foundingDate: new Date("2018-05-10").toISOString(),
    capital: "250,000 EUR",
    purpose: "Technology development and consulting services",
    lastUpdate: new Date().toISOString()
  };

  try {
    await businessRecord.save();
    console.log('BusinessRecord created successfully:', businessRecord);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error creating business record:', error);
  }
};

In this example, after setting the business record fields, the record is saved to the MongoDB collection using the save method. The system ensures that the newly created record receives a unique identifier by generating a new ID when saving the document.

b) Retrieving Business Records

To retrieve business records, you can search by various fields such as city, business name, or registration details. The system utilizes MongoDB queries to filter and return relevant documents. Below is a sample function that retrieves all records for companies based in a particular city:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';
import type { BusinessRecord } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const retrieveRecordsByCity = async (openData: OpenData, city: string) => {
  try {
    const records = await openData.db
      .collection<BusinessRecord>('businessrecords')
      .find({ city })
      .toArray();
    
    console.log(`Retrieved ${records.length} records for city ${city}.`);
    console.log(records);
    return records;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error retrieving business records:', error);
  }
};

This method queries the "businessrecords" collection using a simple filter and converts the cursor into an array of records. You can extend the query to filter by more sophisticated criteria as needed.

c) Updating an Existing Business Record

Modifying the details of an exisiting record is a common operation. First, you need to retrieve the record from the database. Once the record is loaded, you can make changes to its properties and then save the updated record back to the database. The following example demonstrates this with a change to the company’s phone number and last update timestamp:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const updateBusinessRecordExample = async (openData: OpenData, recordId: string) => {
  try {
    // Retrieve the record by its id using the manager’s helper
    const businessRecord = await openData.CBusinessRecord.getInstance(recordId);
    if (!businessRecord) {
      console.log(`No business record found with id: ${recordId}`);
      return;
    }

    // Update some fields
    businessRecord.data.phone = "+49 30 654321";
    businessRecord.data.lastUpdate = new Date().toISOString();
    
    // Save the updated record into the database
    await businessRecord.save();
    console.log("Business record updated successfully:", businessRecord);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error updating business record:', error);
  }
};

This code snippet presents a robust pattern where errors are caught and logged, ensuring that any update issues can be diagnosed easily.

d) Deleting a Business Record

The deletion of a record is as vital as its creation and modification. The library provides a delete method that removes the specified record from the database. Below is a simple function to delete a business record by its identifier:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const deleteBusinessRecordExample = async (openData: OpenData, recordId: string) => {
  try {
    const businessRecord = await openData.CBusinessRecord.getInstance(recordId);
    if (businessRecord) {
      await businessRecord.delete();
      console.log(`Successfully deleted business record with id: ${recordId}`);
    } else {
      console.log(`No business record found with id: ${recordId}`);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error deleting business record:', error);
  }
};

Through this example, you can integrate safe deletion practices in your application, removing outdated or incorrect records without compromising database integrity.

────────────────────────────────────────────

3. Bulk Data Processing and Importing via JSONL Streams

One of the powerful features of the @fin.cx/opendata module is its ability to process large datasets provided in the JSON Lines (JSONL) format. The JsonlDataProcessor class is designed to handle streaming data, processing each record concurrently, and efficiently updating the database.

This bulk data ingestion mechanism is particularly useful when dealing with large-scale datasets such as the German companies' open data that the module fetches from official data portals. The process involves decompressing, streaming, and parsing data by leveraging pipelines of smart streams and concurrent processors.

Below is an extended example demonstrating how to process a JSONL data file from a given URL:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

// This function demonstrates bulk data processing using the JSONL data processor.
// The dataUrl parameter is optional and, if not provided, defaults to the official open data URL.
export const demonstrateBulkDataProcessing = async (openData: OpenData, dataUrl?: string) => {
  try {
    console.log('Starting bulk data processing...');
    await openData.jsonLDataProcessor.processDataFromUrl(dataUrl);
    console.log('Bulk data processing completed successfully.');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error during bulk data processing:', error);
  }
};

In the processDataFromUrl implementation, the library uses a pipeline of smart streams. After downloading the compressed file, it decompresses it and splits the content into discrete JSON lines. The processor then concurrently applies a handler function to each JSON entry. This function extracts relevant company details, instantiates a new BusinessRecord, associates parsed data (for example, registration attributes from German registers), and saves the record to MongoDB.

A deeper dive into the processing mechanism: • The JSONL data is received as a binary (Buffer) stream. • The stream is piped into a duplex stream that splits the text by newline characters. • Each line is parsed into a JSON object and passed into an asynchronous processing function. • This function creates a new business record and sets properties such as the company name and its registration details, derived from the JSON entry. • As the processor moves through the stream, it logs progress every 10,000 records to give feedback on its bulk processing status.

By supporting concurrency (with a configurable concurrency limit, e.g., 1000 simultaneous operations), the library ensures that even gigabytes of data are processed efficiently without hitting memory bottlenecks.

────────────────────────────────────────────

4. Integrating with the Handelsregister: Detailed Demonstrations

In addition to CRUD operations and bulk processing, the module includes an integrated Handelsregister system. This sophisticated component leverages a headless browser (via the smartbrowser instance) to interact with the official Handelsregister website. Through this integration, you can search for companies, navigate to specific pages, trigger file downloads (such as PDF or XML data), and parse the downloaded content for further processing.

a) Starting the Handelsregister

Before executing any search or download operations, the Handelsregister system must be started. The start method initializes required resources including starting a headless browser, ensuring download directories are created, and preparing asynchronous stacks for exclusive execution.

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const demonstrateHandelsregisterStart = async (openData: OpenData) => {
  try {
    console.log('Starting Handelsregister services...');
    await openData.handelsregister.start();
    console.log('Handelsregister ready.');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error starting Handelsregister service:', error);
  }
};

b) Searching for a Company Using the Handelsregister

A common use case is to search for a company by its name. The Handelsregister system creates a dedicated browser page, enters the search criteria into the input fields, selects the appropriate options (such as radio buttons for search type), and clicks the “Find” button. The following function demonstrates how to incorporate these actions:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const searchCompanyExample = async (openData: OpenData, companyName: string, limit: number = 100) => {
  try {
    console.log(`Searching for company with name "${companyName}"...`);
    const records = await openData.handelsregister.searchCompany(companyName, limit);
    console.log(`Found ${records.length} matching records for "${companyName}".`);
    console.log('Records:', records);
    return records;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error searching for company:', error);
  }
};

In this scenario, the Handelsregister component uses internal helper functions: • getNewPage – to create a new browser page with file download behavior enabled. • navigateToPage – which navigates to the “Normal search” page. • Input events – to simulate typing in search criteria. • UI interactions – to select options and trigger the search.

c) Retrieving Detailed Data and Triggering Downloads

After obtaining general search results, you may wish to retrieve more detailed information about a specific company. Provided you have the parsed registration data (which typically includes the registration court, type, and number), you can instruct the system to navigate to a detailed view and trigger file downloads. These files might include the company’s official registry entry (as an XML file) and additional documents (such as a PDF summary).

The example below details how to use the Handelsregister functionality to focus on a specific company by leveraging its registration details, then download both SI and AD files:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const getDetailedCompanyData = async (openData: OpenData, registrationData: { court?: string; type?: 'HRA' | 'HRB' | 'GnR' | 'PR' | 'VR' | 'GsR'; number?: string; }) => {
  try {
    console.log('Retrieving detailed company data...');
    const result = await openData.handelsregister.getSpecificCompany(registrationData);
    console.log('Retrieved detailed company data.');
    console.log('Business Records:', result.businessRecords);
    console.log('Downloaded Files:', result.files);
    return result;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error retrieving detailed company data:', error);
  }
};

In the above example: • The getSpecificCompany method triggers navigation through various UI elements: – Selecting the register type via a dropdown. – Inputting the register number. – Choosing the appropriate register court. • Then, after clicking the “Find” button, the system waits for the results, verifies the visual components on the page, and initiates file downloads. • The downloaded files are renamed according to their type (SI for XML and AD for PDF) and are returned for further processing or storage.

d) Downloading and Processing Files

The Handelsregister component not only triggers file downloads but also includes utility functions that wait for downloads to complete, clear temporary directories, and output the file objects. You may want to use these file objects to persist data locally, parse file content, or send the data downstream for further analysis.

Below is an example that covers downloading and saving the files into a custom directory for post-download analysis:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';
import * as path from 'path';

export const downloadAndSaveFilesExample = async (openData: OpenData, registrationData: { court?: string; type?: 'HRA' | 'HRB' | 'GnR' | 'PR' | 'VR' | 'GsR'; number?: string; }) => {
  try {
    console.log('Initiating specific company download...');
    const result = await openData.handelsregister.getSpecificCompany(registrationData);
    const saveDirectory = path.join(process.cwd(), 'downloaded_files');

    // Save each downloaded file to the specified directory
    for (const file of result.files) {
      await file.writeToDir(saveDirectory);
      console.log(`File saved: ${file.path}`);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error during file download and save process:', error);
  }
};

This function demonstrates a complete flow from launching the Handelsregister detailed company search to saving the downloaded files to disk. This example is particularly useful in scenarios where the downloaded documents need to be processed further, such as converting XML to JSON or extracting text from PDFs.

────────────────────────────────────────────

5. Advanced Examples: Combined Operations and Edge Cases

Given the numerous functionalities offered by the library, you can combine various operations to create more complex workflows. One such example is an end-to-end pipeline that:

Initializes the open data instance.
Processes an initial bulk data import.
Searches for key business records that match specific criteria.
Updates individual records based on additional data retrieved from the Handelsregister.
Handles error conditions and retries processes where necessary.

The following advanced example integrates these steps:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

const advancedWorkflowExample = async () => {
  const openData = new OpenData();

  try {
    console.log('Starting advanced workflow...');
    await openData.start();

    // Step 1: Bulk data import from external JSONL source
    console.log('Building initial database from bulk import...');
    await openData.buildInitialDb();

    // Step 2: Search for companies in a selected area (for instance, Munich)
    console.log('Retrieving companies located in Munich...');
    const munichRecords = await openData.db
      .collection('businessrecords')
      .find({ city: "Munich" })
      .toArray();
    console.log(`Found ${munichRecords.length} companies in Munich.`);

    // Step 3: For each record, perform an update operation based on new file downloads
    for (const record of munichRecords) {
      try {
        console.log(`Updating record for company: ${record.data.name}`);
        // Assuming the record contains parsed registration info
        if (record.data.germanParsedRegistration) {
          const detailedData = await openData.handelsregister.getSpecificCompany(record.data.germanParsedRegistration);
          // Update business record with new information (e.g., registration files or updated details)
          record.data.lastUpdate = new Date().toISOString();
          // You might want to add additional fields based on the downloaded file data
          await record.save();
          console.log(`Updated record for ${record.data.name}.`);
        } else {
          console.log(`No registration data available for ${record.data.name}; skipping update.`);
        }
      } catch (innerError) {
        console.error(`Error updating record for ${record.data.name}:`, innerError);
      }
    }

    // Step 4: Demonstrate retrieval and deletion
    const recordToDeleteId = munichRecords.length > 0 ? munichRecords[0].id : null;
    if (recordToDeleteId) {
      console.log(`Deleting record with id: ${recordToDeleteId}`);
      const recordToDelete = await openData.CBusinessRecord.getInstance(recordToDeleteId);
      if (recordToDelete) {
        await recordToDelete.delete();
        console.log(`Record ${recordToDeleteId} deleted successfully.`);
      }
    }
    
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Advanced workflow encountered an error:', error);
  } finally {
    console.log('Ending advanced workflow and stopping OpenData instance.');
    await openData.stop();
  }
};

advancedWorkflowExample();

This advanced workflow not only illustrates the coordinated use of bulk data import, search, update, and delete operations but also demonstrates the integration of browser automation for fetching detailed data. The error handling at each step ensures that even if a particular operation fails, the workflow continues in a controlled fashion.

────────────────────────────────────────────

6. Error Handling and Data Validation

Robust systems must gracefully handle errors and ensure data consistency. The @fin.cx/opendata library has built-in error handling for asynchronous operations, whether connecting to MongoDB, processing JSON streams, or interacting with web pages. In addition, each BusinessRecord instance provides a validate method that performs basic checks (for instance, ensuring that a company name is present) before a record is saved into the database.

The snippet below shows how to wrap operations in try/catch blocks and use the validate method:

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

export const validateAndSaveRecord = async (openData: OpenData) => {
  const record = new openData.CBusinessRecord();
  record.data = {
    name: "Validation Test Corp",
    address: "Teststraße 99",
    postalCode: "12345",
    city: "Teststadt",
    country: "Germany",
    phone: "+49 123 456789",
    email: "test@testcorp.de",
    businessType: "AG",
    registrationId: "District court Teststadt HRB 111111",
    legalForm: "AG",
    managingDirectors: ["Test Director"],
    foundingDate: new Date().toISOString(),
    capital: "1,000,000 EUR",
    purpose: "Testing for data validation",
    lastUpdate: new Date().toISOString()
  };

  try {
    // Validate record data before saving.
    await record.validate();
    await record.save();
    console.log("Record validated and saved successfully.");
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error validating or saving record:", error);
  }
};

Using proper error handling ensures that the entire system remains reliable, and any data validation issues are caught early during development or in production.

────────────────────────────────────────────

7. Testing and Automated Workflows

To support continuous integration and adherence to best practices, the @fin.cx/opendata module includes tests written with @push.rocks/tapbundle. You should consider incorporating these tests in your development workflow. The tests verify all main functionalities including instance initialization, bulk data import, Handelsregister operations, and CRUD operations for BusinessRecords.

Below is an example of a simple test written in TypeScript using ESM that makes use of the module:

import { expect, tap } from '@push.rocks/tapbundle';
import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

let testOpenDataInstance: OpenData;

tap.test('Instance creation', async () => {
  testOpenDataInstance = new OpenData();
  expect(testOpenDataInstance).toBeInstanceOf(OpenData);
});

tap.test('Start instance', async () => {
  await testOpenDataInstance.start();
});

tap.test('Perform bulk import', async () => {
  await testOpenDataInstance.buildInitialDb();
});

tap.test('Stop instance', async () => {
  await testOpenDataInstance.stop();
});

tap.start();

This test code is designed to verify that the OpenData instance is successfully created, started, performs the critical bulk import operation, and is properly shutdown. Integration tests for the Handelsregister functionality follow a similar pattern and ensure that the browser automation routines and file download processes complete without errors.

────────────────────────────────────────────

Comprehensive Example: Full Cycle from Initialization to Cleanup

To better illustrate how one might combine several aspects of the module in a production scenario, here's a comprehensive example that ties together initialization, CRUD operations, bulk processing, and Handelsregister interactions. This full-cycle example is written in TypeScript using ESM syntax and demonstrates how to build a production-grade data update and management pipeline.

import { OpenData } from '@fin.cx/opendata';

const runFullCyclePipeline = async () => {
  const openData = new OpenData();

  try {
    // Initialize the module and connect to MongoDB
    console.log('Initializing the OpenData module...');
    await openData.start();
    
    // Step 1: Bulk Import - Build the initial database from downloaded open data
    console.log('Starting bulk data import from JSONL source...');
    await openData.buildInitialDb();

    // Step 2: Business Record Management - Create a sample business record
    console.log('Creating a new business record...');
    const sampleRecord = new openData.CBusinessRecord();
    sampleRecord.data = {
      name: "Sample Enterprise GmbH",
      address: "Innovation Avenue 101",
      postalCode: "80807",
      city: "Munich",
      country: "Germany",
      phone: "+49 89 111222",
      email: "info@sampleenterprise.de",
      website: "https://sampleenterprise.de",
      businessType: "GmbH",
      registrationId: "District court Munich HRB 555555",
      legalForm: "GmbH",
      managingDirectors: ["Director A", "Director B"],
      foundingDate: new Date("2015-06-15").toISOString(),
      capital: "500,000 EUR",
      purpose: "Holistic business solutions and data processing",
      lastUpdate: new Date().toISOString()
    };

    await sampleRecord.save();
    console.log('Sample business record created with id:', sampleRecord.id);

    // Step 3: Retrieve business records for a specific location
    console.log('Retrieving business records for Munich...');
    const munichRecords = await openData.db
      .collection('businessrecords')
      .find({ city: "Munich" })
      .toArray();
    console.log(`Found ${munichRecords.length} records for Munich.`);

    // Step 4: Update an existing record
    if (munichRecords.length > 0) {
      const recordToUpdateId = munichRecords[0].id;
      console.log(`Updating business record with id: ${recordToUpdateId}`);
      const recordToUpdate = await openData.CBusinessRecord.getInstance(recordToUpdateId);
      if (recordToUpdate) {
        recordToUpdate.data.phone = "+49 89 999888";
        recordToUpdate.data.lastUpdate = new Date().toISOString();
        await recordToUpdate.save();
        console.log('Business record updated:', recordToUpdate);
      }
    }

    // Step 5: Use Handelsregister to search for a specific company
    console.log('Using Handelsregister to search for a specific company...');
    const searchResults = await openData.handelsregister.searchCompany("Step Beyond GmbH", 20);
    if (searchResults && searchResults.length > 0) {
      const registrationData = searchResults[0].germanParsedRegistration;
      console.log('Retrieved registration data:', registrationData);

      // Step 6: Retrieve detailed info and download files for the specific company
      console.log('Fetching detailed data for the identified company...');
      const detailedInfo = await openData.handelsregister.getSpecificCompany(registrationData);
      console.log('Detailed company data received:', detailedInfo);

      // Optionally, save the downloaded files to a designated directory
      for (const downloadedFile of detailedInfo.files) {
        await downloadedFile.writeToDir('./output_files');
        console.log(`Downloaded file saved at: ${downloadedFile.path}`);
      }
    } else {
      console.log('No matching records found for detailed company data retrieval.');
    }

    // Step 7: Validate and save a record to demonstrate error handling and validation
    console.log('Validating and saving a new test record...');
    await validateAndSaveRecord(openData);

  } catch (error) {
    console.error('An error occurred during the full cycle pipeline operation:', error);
  } finally {
    // Final cleanup: Stop the OpenData module and release all resources
    console.log('Finalizing: stopping the OpenData module...');
    await openData.stop();
    console.log('Pipeline completed and all resources have been cleaned up.');
  }
};

runFullCyclePipeline();

In this example, the entire processing cycle is constructed to mimic a realistic scenario. The pipeline: • Starts by connecting to your database. • Imports extensive JSONL open data. • Creates, retrieves, updates, and deletes business records. • Interacts with the Handelsregister for advanced company-specific operations. • Implements robust error handling and validation routines, ensuring that each step is verifiable. • Finally, ensures that resources such as MongoDB connections and headless browser sessions are responsibly closed.
