tuef v1.0.17

tuef

In TUEF format (TransUnion Enquiry Format), a files might consist of several segments, each segment contains several fields. Based on provided spec this utility provides and easy way to write or read tuef stream

Installation

yarn add tuef or npm -i tuef

Sample spec

1. Fixed length segment

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'fixed',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', type: 'N', val: 10, length: 10, required: true }, // Field field1 is a require field
    { name: 'field2', type: 'A', val: 'Hello', length: 10 }, // Field field2 is an optional field
  ],
}

2. Variable length segment Note: tag is a required field for variable length segment fieldSpec

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'vary',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', tag: 'T01', type: 'N', val: 10, length: 10, required: true }, // Field field1 is a require field
    { name: 'field2', tag: 'T02', type: 'A', val: 'Hello', length: 10 }, // Field field2 is an optional field
  ],
}

3. Nested segment spec

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'vary',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', tag: 'T01', type: 'N', mapKey: f1, mapFunc: val => val* 10, length: 10, required: true }, // Field field1 is a require field
    { name: 'field2', tag: 'T02', type: 'A', val: 10, length: 10 }, // Field field2 is an optional field
  ],
  childSegment: {
    child1: {
      lengthType: '...',
      fieldSpecs: [...],
    }
  }
}

4. Using mapKey to map value from data object instead of fieldSpec.val

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'vary',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', tag: 'T01', type: 'N', val: 5, length: 10, required: true }, // Field field1 is a require field
    { name: 'field2', tag: 'T02', type: 'A', mapKey: f2, length: 10 }, // Field field2 is an optional field
  ],
}
const data = {
  f2: 'Hello',
}

5. Using mapFunc to map datafieldSpec.mapKey to other value

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'vary',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', tag: 'T01', type: 'N', mapKey: f1, mapFunc: val => val* 10, length: 10, required: true }, // Field field1 is a require field
    { name: 'field2', tag: 'T02', type: 'A', val: 10, length: 10 }, // Field field2 is an optional field
  ],
}
const data = {
  f1: 5,
}

6. Default value

const spec = {
  lengthType: 'fixed',
  fieldSpecs: [
    { name: 'field1', type: 'N', mapKey: 'f1', length: 10, required: true, defaultVal: 5 }, // Field field1 will be 5 if data.f1 not exist
  ],
}
```
