ediFabric Native

Map version 005040 to the Native model with set_map, then parse 265 files to JSON from Python, Java, C or C#. See Convert between EDI and JSON.

Generate 265 classes in Python, Java, Node.js, Go, Rust or C

ediFabric Native returns each 265 as JSON, with the property names of the OpenEDI schema. To work with that JSON as typed objects, generate classes from the OpenEDI file in your language and deserialize the JSON into TS265. Serialize the objects back to JSON to build EDI with ediFabric Native. The classes keep the loops, segments, lengths and code lists, but not the EDI data formats, so validate files with ediFabric Native. Read more in Generate a class from OpenEDI.
