ediFabric Native

Native supports X12 today, and EDIFACT is coming. When it's available, map version D08A to this Native model with set_map to parse SUPCOT files to JSON from Python, Java, C or C#. See ediFabric Native.

OpenEDI

Generate SUPCOT classes in Python, Java, Node.js, Go, Rust or C

The OpenEDI file describes each SUPCOT as JSON. To work with SUPCOT data as typed objects, generate classes from the OpenEDI file in your language; the root class is TSSUPCOT. The classes keep the loops, segments, lengths and code lists, but not the EDI data formats. Read more in Generate a class from OpenEDI.
