This was forked from  due to an issue with string padding on the lodgement reference. This fork fixes the text to be left justified as opposed to right justified.

Features

[](#features)

- Simple API
- Framework agnostic

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.4+

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`Aba` is available via Composer

```
$ composer require nazmusshakib/aba-generator
```

Integrations
------------

[](#integrations)

##### Laravel integrations

[](#laravel-integrations)

Although `Aba` is framework agnostic, it does support Laravel out of the box and comes with a Service provider and Facade for easy integration.

After you have installed the `Aba`, open the `config/app.php` file which is included with Laravel and add the following lines.

In the `$providers` array add the following service provider.

```
NazmusShakib\AbaGenerator\AbaServiceProvider::class
```

Add the facade of this package to the `$aliases` array.

```
'Aba' => NazmusShakib\AbaGenerator\Facades\Aba::class,
```

You can now use this facade in place of instantiating the converter yourself in the following examples.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use NazmusShakib\AbaGenerator\Aba;

$aba = new Aba();

// Descriptive record or file header
// The header information is included at the top of every ABA file
// and is used to describe your bank details.
$aba->addFileDetails([
    'bank_name' => 'CBA', // bank name
    'user_name' => 'Your account name', // Account name
    'bsb' => '062-111', // bsb with hyphen
    'account_number' => '101010101', // account number
    'remitter' => 'Name of remitter', // Remitter
    'user_number' => '301500', // User Number (as allocated by APCA). The Commonwealth bank default is 301500
    'description' => 'Payroll', // description
    'process_date'  => '270616' // DDMMYY - Date to be processed
]);

// Add a transaction or Detail record
$aba->addTransaction([
    'bsb' => '111-111', // bsb with hyphen
    'account_number' => '999999999',
    'account_name'  => 'Jhon doe',
    'reference' => 'Payroll number',
    'transaction_code'  => '53',

$abaFileContent = $aba->generate(); // Generate ABA string.
