ISO8583 Server entity simulatorin C for testing
This project is a ISO8583 Server entity simulator in C for testing. It is a static type-A simulator, which means it can only send and receive static messages. The project is based on the ISO8583 where you can use it as a test tool for your Host system. The project is written in C and it is a console application.
The server simulator use the version ISO 8583-2:1993 version. All the MTIs must start with 1 and the format must be 1xxx.
1xxx ----> version of ISO 8583 (1993 version)
x1xx ----> class of the Message (Authorization Message)
xx1x ----> function of the Message (Request Response)
xxx0 ----> who is began the communication (Acquirer)
For more detailed information, read the documentation of the protocol ISO.org, IBM.com or PDF from user of GITHUB.com
In addition the server use DATA-LENGTH as Header of the message. The DATA-LENGTH is the length of the message without the header. The DATA-LENGTH is a 2 bytes length and it is in binary.
The server use the following format:
DATA-LENGTH (2 bytes) + MTI (2 bytes) + BITMAP(P) + BITMAP(S) + DATA-FIELDS
Example of MTI: 1200 Message

WITH DOCKER (RECOMMENDED)
1. Make sure you have installed docker and docker-compose
2. Execute the following commands:
- cd ./script
- ./BUILD.sh
- ./RUN.sh
3. To enter the container execute:
- docker exec -it ciso8583_ots_a bash
3. To stop the container execute:
- ./STOP.sh
4. To clean all the environment execute:
- ./CLEAN.sh
Custom:
* If you want to run the program with docker or podman in DETACH mode, you only have to execute the following command:
- ./RUN.sh -d
* To add any other DOCKER flags:
- ./RUN.sh -d --rm
Notes:
- If you are Mac user, you must to change ./RUN.sh file and replace the following line:
- docker run -d -it --name $container_name --network=host -v ciso8583_ots_a_logs:/opt/Ciso8583/log $container_name
to
- docker run -d -it --name $container_name -p 9101:9101 -v ciso8583_ots_a_logs:/opt/Ciso8583/log $container_name
WITH PODMAN:
To use PODMAN in production follow these steps to import and run container:
1. In local machine:
1.1 BUILD (./BUILD.sh <path-export-image>):
- ./BUILD.sh ./dist/ciso8583_ots_a.tgz
Or manually with (After docker build):
- docker image save ciso8583_ots_a | gzip > ./dist/ciso8583_ots_a.tgz
1.2 UPLOAD:
Upload the image to production
2. In remote machine:
1.2 GZIP && RUN (./PODMAN.sh <path-import-image>):
- cd dist
- ./PODMAN.sh ./dist/ciso8583_ots_a.tgz
Or manually with:
- cd dist
- gzip -d ./ciso8583_ots_a.tgz
- ./STOP.sh podman
- podman image rm ciso8583_ots_a
- podman image load -i ./ciso8583_ots_a.tar
- podman run -dit --name ciso8583_ots_a -p 9101:9101 -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v ciso8583_ots_a_logs:/opt/Ciso8583/log ciso8583_ots_a
WITH NATIVE INSTALLATION
1. Make sure you have installed this dependencies:
- gcc
- make
2. Execute the following commands:
- make clean
- make
3. The application server will be compiled following path:
- ~/dist/ciso8583
4. Execute the program:
- ~/dist/ciso8583
5. You will see the logs in the following path:
- /opt/Ciso8583/logs/Ciso8583.log
To execute the program manually you can invoke the following command:
./ciso8583
To add custom port and ip:
./ciso8583 9101 0.0.0.0
To add custom logfile:
./ciso8583 -o /opt/custom/logs/PARTY.log
