HungarianBankAccount
This library written in C# checks the validity of a Hungarian bank account number (in GIRO format) and determines which bank it belongs to.
Usage
Let's check a valid bank account:
string validAccountNumber = "10032000-01076349";
var accountValid = new BankAccount(validAccountNumber);
System.Console.WriteLine($"{accountValid.AccountNumber}: IsValid = {accountValid.IsValid}, Bank = {accountValid.Bank}");An invalid bank account will return IsValid = false and throws FormatException when Bank property is read:
var accountInvalidNumber = new BankAccount("00000000-00000000-00000001");
System.Console.WriteLine($"{accountInvalidNumber.AccountNumber}: IsValid = {accountInvalidNumber.IsValid}");
try
{
System.Console.WriteLine($"Checking bank details for {accountInvalidNumber.AccountNumber}");
System.Console.WriteLine(accountInvalidNumber.Bank);
}
catch (FormatException)
{
System.Console.WriteLine($"{typeof(FormatException)} was thrown because account number was not valid");
}When the syntax of the bank account number is correct, but it doesn't belong to any known bank KeyNotFoundException is thrown:
var accountInvalidBank = new BankAccount("00000000-00000000");
System.Console.WriteLine($"{accountInvalidBank.AccountNumber}: IsValid = {accountInvalidBank.IsValid} (it's technically valid)");
try
{
System.Console.WriteLine($"Checking bank details for {accountInvalidBank.AccountNumber}");
System.Console.WriteLine(accountInvalidBank.Bank);
}
catch (KeyNotFoundException)
{
System.Console.WriteLine($"{typeof(KeyNotFoundException)} was thrown, because the bank account number doesn't belong to any known bank.");
}Alternatively you can use the static Validator.Validate(string accountNumber) method to check if the number is syntactically and mathematically correct.
