"Buy Me A Coffee"

Development of a Null Safe Dart/Flutter Package for Nordigen EU PSD2 AISP Banking API Integration with relevant Data Models, proper encapsulation with the exposing of parameters, and succinct documentation.

For more information about the API, view Nordigen's Account Information API documentation.

Contents

Usage Steps

  1. Go through the Nordigen's Account Information API documentation.

  2. Register and get the User Secrets from https://ob.nordigen.com/user-secrets/.

  3. Initialise the NordigenAccountInfoAPI Class with the token recieved from Usage Step 2.

  4. Call any of the NordigenAccountInfoAPI Class methods to directly interact with Nordigen Server's endpoints while having the internal requests and relevant headers abstracted, based on your need.

  5. Utilize any of the available Data Classes to modularly and sufficiently store and process the information during any of the API usage steps. The Data Classes have functionality to be constructed fromMap() and to be easily converted back toMap() as well as to be serialized, at any point.

Example Usage

import 'package:nordigen_integration/nordigen_integration.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
    /// Step 1
    final NordigenAccountInfoAPI apiInterface =
        await NordigenAccountInfoAPI.fromSecret(secretID: 'secret_id', secretKey: 'secret_key');

    /// Step 2 and then selecting the first Bank/Institution
    final Institution firstBank =
        (await apiInterface.getInstitutionsForCountry(countryCode: 'gb')).first;

    /// Step 3
    final EndUserAgreementModel endUserAgreementModel =
        await apiInterface.createEndUserAgreement(
        maxHistoricalDays: 90,
        accessValidForDays: 90,
        institutionID: firstBank.id,
    );

    /// Step 4
    final RequisitionModel requisition = await apiInterface.createRequisitionAndBuildLink(
        agreement: endUserAgreementModel.id,
        institutionID: firstBank.id,
        redirect: 'http://www.yourwebpage.com/',
        reference: 'exampleRef42069666',
    );

    /// Open and validate in [link] and proceed with other functionality.
    print('Validate: ${requisition.link}');
}

API Documentation

Available Methods

  1. NordigenAccountInfoAPI({required String accessToken}) (Class constuctor)

    Call it with accessToken parameter which is the access token generated using User Secrets, to access API features.

    Analogous to Step 1 of Account Information API documentation.

  2. static Future<NordigenAccountInfoAPI> fromSecret({required String secretID, required String secretKey}) (static convenience method to generate interface using Secrets)

    Call it with secretID and secretKey parameters which are the user's User Secrets.

    Returns a Future that resolves to the initialized NordigenAccountInfoAPI object using the Access Token that was generated using the secrets.

    Analogous to Step 1 of Account Information API documentation.

  3. static Future<Map<String, dynamic>> createAccessToken({required String secretID, required String secretKey})

    Call it with secretID and secretKey parameters which are the user's User Secrets.

    Returns a Future that resolves to a Map<String, dynamic> containing the information about the Access Token that was generated using the secrets.

  4. getInstitutionsForCountry({required String countryCode})

    Gets the Institutions (Banks) in the Country represented by the given two-letter countryCode (ISO 3166).

    Analogous to Step 2 of Account Information API documentation.

  5. createEndUserAgreement({required String institutionID, int maxHistoricalDays = 90, int accessValidForDays = 90, List<String> accessScope = const <String>['balances', 'details', 'transactions']})

    Create an End User Agreement for given Institution identified by institutionID, account access period for given accessValidForDays and maxHistoricalDays of transaction histoy (default 90 days each) and returns a Future resolving to the resulting EndUserAgreementModel.

    Analogous to Step 3 of Account Information API documentation.

  6. acceptEndUserAgreement({required String endUserAgreementID, required String ipAddress, required String userAgent})

    Accepts the End User Agreement identified by endUserAgreementID and returns a Future resolving to the resulting EndUserAgreementModel.

    Accepts the user agreement using given userAgent and ipAddress. This determine whether you have permission to accept the Agreement or not. Will throw a Error Code 403 (You do not have permission to perform this action) otherwise.

  7. createRequisitionAndBuildLink({required String redirect, required String institutionID, String? agreement, required String reference, String? userLanguage})

    Create a Requisition for the given institutionID and returns a Future resolving to the resulting RequisitionModel.

    reference is additional layer of unique ID. Should match Step 3 if done. redirect is the link where the end user will be redirected after finishing authentication in institution. agreement is the identifier of the agreement from Step 3 and userLanguage is the language code of the language used in verification.

    Analogous to Step 4 of Account Information API documentation.

  8. getRequisitionUsingID({required String requisitionID})

    Gets the Requisition identified by requisitionID.

  9. getEndUserAccountIDs({required String requisitionID})

    Gets the Account IDs of the User for the Requisition identified by requisitionID.

    Analogous to Step 5 of Account Information API documentation.

  10. getAccountDetails({required String accountID})

    Gets the Details of the Bank Account identified by accountID. Account Model follows schema in https://nordigen.com/en/docs/account-information/overview/parameters-and-responses/.

    Analogous to Step 6 of Account Information API documentation for Account Details.

  11. getAccountTransactions({required String accountID})

    Gets the Transactions of the Bank Account identified by accountID as a Map<String, List<TransactionData>> with keys 'booked' and 'pending' representing List of Booked and pending transactions respectively.

    Analogous to Step 6 of Account Information API documentation for Account Transactions.

  12. getAccountBalances({required String accountID})

    Gets the Balances of the Bank Account identified by accountID as dynamic. Will be depreciated later when documentation provides example of potentially fetched Balance Data.

    Analogous to Step 6 of Account Information API documentation for Account Balances.

There are also various other methods for implementing POST, GET and DELETE requests across various endpoints in Nordigen Server, which are self explanatory:

  1. getinstitutionUsingID({required String institutionID})

  2. getEndUserAgreementUsingID({required String endUserAgreementID})

  3. getEndUserAgreementTextUsingID({required String endUserAgreementID})

  4. getEndUserAgreements({int limit = 100, int offset = 0})

  5. deleteEndUserAgreementUsingID({required String endUserAgreementID})

  6. getRequisitions({int limit = 100, int offset = 0,})

  7. getRequisitionUsingID({required String requisitionID})

  8. deleteRequisitionUsingID({required String requisitionID})

  9. getAccountMetaData({required String accountID})
