ANZ Bank Client

This gem is a client for the private, undocumented API behind ANZ New Zealand's personal internet banking website. It is not affiliated with ANZ Bank in any way and is intended only for personal use.

It can be used in a Ruby script or application, or alternatively as a command-line tool (anzcli).

It is currently capable of logging in and retrieving account balances and transaction history, but could be easily extended to do other things. Please note that this gem is not officially supported by ANZ Bank and may stop working at any time due to changes to how their internet banking application works. ANZ's terms and conditions for their internet banking product may also change at any time, and you should ensure that you are complying with them if you use this gem.

Install the gem globally with gem install anz_bank_client and then run anzcli to get started.

You can use the help option to see a list of available commands and options.

anzcli commands:
  anzcli help [COMMAND]                  # Describe available commands or one specific command
  anzcli login                           # Login to ANZ
  anzcli logout                          # Logout
  anzcli ls-accounts                     # List accounts
  anzcli ls-transactions ACCOUNT_NUMBER  # List transactions

Options:
  -f, [--format=FORMAT]  # Output format
                         # Default: table
                         # Possible values: table, json

The remaining sections are about using the gem in a Ruby script or application.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'anz_bank_client'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install anz_bank_client

First, create an instance of the client.

@session = AnzBankClient::Session.new

Then, log in.

@session.login(customer_number, password)

You can then list accounts and transactions.

accounts = @session.list_accounts

first_account_number = accounts.first[:accountNo] # e.g. 01-1234-5678901-00
start_date = Date.today.prev_month.to_s
end_date = Date.today.to_s
transactions = @session.list_transactions(first_account_number, start_date, end_date)

Finally, log out.

@session.logout

It's very important to log out, as ANZ's internet banking application has a maximum number of concurrent sessions and you could lock yourself out of your account for a while if you create too many of them without logging out.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
