subfield data element management about iso-8583-socket-queue HOT 11 OPEN

@scalpovich you could implement this:

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

Hi!
What do you mean by "managing"? A callback function?

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

Hi,
Something like way to define each subfields as you implemented for ISO fields fields before packing the iso message .
Cause according to somes host specifications for VISA or others there as some subfields by each fields like fields 48, fields 55 etc...

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

Well, made an improvement.

Two new methods to mind:

1. Before the whole packet is packed:

   iso-8583-socket-queue/lib/iso8583/lib/packager/smartVista.js

   Line 440 in 0ceaa81

   beforePack: function(data) {

2. Before each field is packed:

   iso-8583-socket-queue/lib/iso8583/lib/packager/smartVista.js

   Line 114 in 0ceaa81

   beforePack: function(fieldValue) {

Hi igor.
thanks for your feedback.
I'm afraid to not understand your implementation.
Kindly provide an use case for exploitation. I mean an example for field 55

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

You should do like so for the field definition:

  '55': {
    length: 255,
    name:   'EMV Data',
    type:   'll-bin-char',
    alias:  '',
    beforePack: function(fieldValue) {
        // Work with tags (TLV) values here
        return fieldValue;
    }
  },

If your message has no field 55 and you want to add it explicitly, you may use the following code inbeforeBack method:

  beforePack: function(data) {
    data['55'] = Buffer.from('9f2608571f1e10d4fa4aac9f2701809f100706010a03a4b8029f37045bb074729f3602000c950500800010009a031508189c01009f02060000000010005f2a02064382023c009f1a0206439f03060000000000009f3303e0f0c89f34034403029f3501229f1e0835313230323831358407a00000000310109f41030000565f340101', 'hex');
    return data;
  }

Thank for your revert.
Something like this i it correct?

  '55': {
    length: 255,
    name:   'EMV Data',
    type:   'll-bin-char',
    alias:  '',
    beforePack: function(fieldValue) {
           '9F26': {
              length: 8,
              name:   'Application cryptogram',
              type:   'fixed-b',
               alias:  ''
               }
          return fieldValue;
       }
  },

Unfortunatelly, there is no tag layer abstraction inside the beforePack right now. So what you get there is entire field 55 value, that you need to break into parts and process on your own.

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

Ok i see
So what do you mean by

// Work with tags (TLV) values here

Some example

from iso-8583-socket-queue.

I mean you have fieldValue variable there, representing the field 55 value. So to alter the EMV tags you need to implement it in this method.

@cavebring thanks for the information.
I will take a look quickly
