This is a fork of pyx12 that provides Python3 support. It is published to Gemfury as cloverhealth-pyx12.
NOTE - The default branch on this fork is pyx12_python3
instead of master because there are some changes in master that we have not used in quite a long time. The pyx12_python3
branch has been used consistently without problem.
If one wishes to publish a change to this library, do the following steps:
- Update the version in
pyx12/version.py
- Run
python setup.py sdist
- Copy the tarred gzipped distribution under the
dist
folder to Gemfury
The rest of the README remains in tact from the original fork
Pyx12 is a HIPAA X12 document validator and converter. It parses an ANSI X12N data file and validates it against a representation of the Implementation Guidelines for a HIPAA transaction. By default, it creates a 997 response for 4010 and a 999 response for 5010. It can create an html representation of the X12 document or can translate to and from an XML representation of the data file.
As a command line tool
x12valid <filename>
To fix common X12 structural errors
x12norm --fix --eol <filename>
Iterate over a loop. Alter children. Show changes
src = pyx12.x12context.X12ContextReader(param, errh, fd_in)
for datatree in src.iter_segments('2300'):
# do something with a 2300 claim loop
# we have access to the 2300 loop and all its children
for loop2400 in datatree.select('2400'):
print(loop2400.get_value('SV101'))
# update something
loop2400.set_value('SV102', 'xx')
# delete something
if loop2400.exists('PWK'):
loop2400.delete('PWK')
# iterate over all the child segments
for seg_node in datatree.iterate_segments():
print(seg_node.format())
