IBAN Validation plugin for Fabrik

[ontarget]

Hi Hugh / Fabrik team
I have a client who requires that IBAN numbers entered are validated against "real" IBAN numbers.
I can't see any IBAN validation plugin for v3.5.1 of Fabrik - but saw a version for Fabrik 2 http://fabrikar.com/download-archive/details/49/256-is-valid-iban
Is there any plans to get it working? If not planned could you please PM me a costing for your time to get the plugin activated / made available.
Thanks

I remember writing that one many years ago, but the 3rd party library that it used got abandoned. Looking around, there seems to be a reasonably up to date one being actively maintained here:

https://github.com/jschaedl/Iban

I'll get Robbie to quote you.

Thanks Hugh
Also saw this one
https://github.com/globalcitizen/php-iban

Yeah, I looked at that one, but it's not as structurally sound as the other one.

OK, I went with that one you pointed at, as although it's not as "neat" as the other one, according to various sources, it's a lot better at actually validating IBANs.

Robbie forwarded me an email saying that it isn't working for you.

I just re-tested with the example IE IBAN from here:

http://www.xe.com/ibancalculator/sample/?ibancountry=ireland

... using IE29 AIBK 9311 5212 3456 78, which is what I used for testing during development, and it works. But the IBAN you are defaulting the element to on your site (IE64BOFI90583812345678) fails. Although it is the right "shape" the checksum validation of the account part fails. If I try that same number in the online validator ...

https://www.ibancalculator.com/iban_validieren.html

... it fails in the same way, with "Account number 12345678: The checksum in the account number is incorrect." Which isn't surprising, as it's obviously bogus.

Can you give me some specific cases of valid numbers (that pass the ibancalculator.com test) which fail in this plugin?

PM me if you don't want to post them in public.

Just to wrap this one up, your site wasn't working because a critical file from the php-iban library was missing from github. I added it to github, and your site, and it seems to be working OK now.

Hi
I would be intrested by a IBAN validation plugin,.
What should I do ?
Thanks

It's in github. After doing a github update, you should be able to do a "discover" and install from Joomla's extension manager.

No! this is the oooold Fabrik2.1 code

Download the current Fabrik GitHub-zip https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/archive/master.zip
and do a GitHub update
WIKI: Update from GitHub

Then "Discover" the isiban validation
