lib/ach/record/dynamic.rb

Overview

Descendants of ACH::Record::Dynamic class are the only records allowed to have previously undefined fields. However, each new field definition requires a rule string to be passed. UndefinedFormatError will be raised otherwise. If the field has already been defined, and a new rule string is passed, a DuplicateFormatError is raised.

Example

class CustomHeader < ACH::Record::Dynamic
  request_type '<-9-' => '$$ADD ID='
  remote_id    '<-8-'
  file_type    '<-6-', 'NWFACH'
end

This example declares a CustomHeader record type with following fields:

  • request_type, defined by rule ‘<-9-’ with a default

value of ‘$$ADD ID=’

  • remote_id with no default value

  • file_type with default value of ‘NWFACH’

Note: passing two arguments to method call is equivalent to passing a hash with a single key-value pair.
