Prawn::SwissQRBill

A Ruby library for creating Swiss QR-bill payment slips inside a PDF. It is built as a Prawn extension.

Installation

Add the following line to your Gemfile:

gem 'prawn-swiss_qr_bill'

or install it manually:

gem install prawn-swiss_qr_bill

Basic Usage

Define the relevant information for the Swiss QR-bill and render it inside the Prawn block:

require 'prawn'
require 'prawn/swiss_qr_bill'

@bill_data = {
  creditor: {
    iban: 'CH08 3080 8004 1110 4136 9',
    address: {
      name: 'Mischa Schindowski',
      line1: 'Schybenächerweg 553',
      line2: '5324 Full-Reuenthal',
      country: 'CH'
    }
  },
  amount: 9.90,
  currency: 'CHF',
  reference: '00 00000 00000 02202 20202 99991',
  reference_type: 'QRR',
  unstructured_message: 'Bill number 2202.20202.9999',
  bill_information: '//S1/10/2202202029999/11/220819'
}

Prawn::Document.generate('output.pdf', page_size: 'A4') do
  text 'A Swiss QR bill'

  swiss_qr_bill(@bill_data)
end

This will render the Swiss QR-bill at the bottom of the page:

Bill data structure

The following data structure for the bill can be specified:

# *: mandatory
@bill_data = {
  creditor: {
    iban: '<iban>',                 # *
    address: {                      # *
      type: '<K|S>',                # default: K
      name: '<name>',               # *
      line1: '<street> <nr>',       # *
      line2: '<line 2>',
      postal_code: '<postal code>',
      city: '<city>',
      country: '<country>'          # *
    }
  },
  debtor: {
    address: {
      type: '<K|S>',                # default: nil
      name: '<name>',
      line1: '<street> <nr>',
      line2: '<line 2>',
      postal_code: '<postal_code>',
      city: '<city>',
      country: '<country>'
    }
  },
  amount: 9.90,
  currency: '<CHF|EUR>',            # *
  reference: '<ref nr>',
  reference_type: '<QRR|SCOR|NON>'  # default: NON
}

If debtor or amount amount is not given, a box will be printed.

Options

Calling swiss_qr_bill() method with options:

# ...
Prawn::Document.generate('output.pdf', page_size: 'A4') do
  # ...

  # raises InvalidIBANError when @bill_data[:creditor][:iban] is invalid
  swiss_qr_bill(@bill_data, validate: true)
end

Available options:

Option	Data type	Description	Default
validate	boolean	Validates IBAN and Reference Number and raises several errors	false

Errors which can be raised during validation:

• MissingIBANError: When IBAN is missing.
• InvalidIBANError: When IBAN is invalid. It checks for CH-IBAN only.
• InvalidReferenceError: When reference is invalid. It checks for a valid QRR or SCOR reference

Important

This library can validate IBAN (switzerland only) and reference number (types QRR and SCOR). It does not however validate, if the given data is fully valid according to the implementation guidelines.

Please refer to the implementation guidelines and the Swiss QR-bill validaton portal by SIX below.
