Quick start

Parse a LA44ZZ file

Give the content of the file to PaymentSlipParser::parse(). It returns a PaymentSlip:

use Silarhi\Caf\Parser\PaymentSlipParser;

$parser = new PaymentSlipParser();
$paymentSlip = $parser->parse(file_get_contents('/path/to/LA44ZZ.txt'));

foreach ($paymentSlip->getLines() as $line) {
    $line->getBeneficiaryReference(); // e.g. "1234567 A"
    $line->getBeneficiaryName();      // e.g. "MME EXEMPLE ALICE"
    $line->getStartDate();            // DateTimeInterface, 1st of the month at midnight
    $line->getEndDate();              // DateTimeInterface, 1st of the month at midnight
    $line->getNetAmount();            // e.g. 312.0
}

What you get

Here is a sample slip, with made-up data, and what the parser returns for it:

The metadata getters of PaymentSlip return null when the file does not hold the information; the lines always have every field. See parsed objects for each getter.

parse() throws a ParseException when the content is not a LA44ZZ payment slip, or when a row, an amount or a date is invalid: see error handling.
