Use the P3 spec in your code

ediFabric .NET

Add the C# template and its common files to your project, or reference the template NuGet package, and read P3 files into TSP3 objects. See ediFabric .NET.

ediFabric Native

Native supports X12 today, and NCPDP is coming. When it's available, map version F6 to this Native model with set_map to parse P3 files to JSON from Python, Java, C or C#. See ediFabric Native.

OpenEDI

The OpenEDI file for this transaction is available for download by request, with the C# template and the Native JSON. Read about OpenEDI.

Generate P3 classes in Python, Java, Node.js, Go, Rust or C

The OpenEDI file describes each P3 as JSON. To work with P3 data as typed objects, generate classes from the OpenEDI file in your language; the root class is TSP3. The classes keep the loops, segments, lengths and code lists, but not the EDI data formats. Read more in Generate a class from OpenEDI.

Python: datamodel-code-generator. Node.js: openapi-typescript. Java, Go, Rust and C: OpenAPI Generator.
