NAME Finance::Bank::Barclays - Check your Barclays bank accounts from Perl SYNOPSIS use Finance::Bank::Barclays; my @accounts = Finance::Bank::Barclays->check_balance( memnumber => "xxxxxxxxxxxx", passcode => "12345", surname => "Smith", password => "xxxxxxxx" ); foreach (@accounts) { printf "%8s %8s : GBP %8.2f\n", $_->{sort_code}, $_->{account_no}, $_->{balance}; } DESCRIPTION This module provides a rudimentary interface to the Barclays Online Banking service at "https://ibank.barclays.co.uk". You will need either "Crypt::SSLeay" or "IO::Socket::SSL" installed for HTTPS support to work with LWP. CLASS METHODS check_balance(memnumber => $u, passcode => $p, surname => $s, password => $w) Return an array of account objects, one for each of your bank accounts. OBJECT METHODS $ac->sort_code $ac->account_no Return the account sort code (in the format XX-YY-ZZ) and the account number. $ac->balance Return the account balance as a signed floating point value. WARNING This warning is from Simon Cozens' "Finance::Bank::LloydsTSB", and seems just as apt here. This is code for online banking, and that means your money, and that means BE CAREFUL. You are encouraged, nay, expected, to audit the source of this module yourself to reassure yourself that I am not doing anything untoward with your banking data. This software is useful to me, but is provided under NO GUARANTEE, explicit or implied. THANKS Simon Cozens for "Finance::Bank::LloydsTSB" and Perl hand-holding. Chris Ball for "Finance::Bank::HSBC".
