Implementation of further ebics messages

[leezu]

First, thanks for putting this software out on Github. It's super helpful and I use it to manage the finances of a small students association in Germany.

For the future I want to propose to implement the following ebics functionality as well:
– Request old protocols (transactions) PKT
– Cancel transactions made before

I am not an expert of the ebics standard, so please excuse this request if it does not make sense or goes against the goals of your library.

Thanks!

Sorry for the late answer... and thank you for the kind words :)

Currently, there are no plans to support other protocols. But if you want to contribute some code - we are open for PR's.

Hey ledermann, don't worry for the late reply.

Just to clarify that I don't mean to support other protocols than ebics. Instead my suggestion is to allow the user to request old transactions from the bank. Those transactions are in my understanding called "protocols" in the ebics jargon.

Anyway, thanks for your work.

I would like to have a plain Ruby implementation to get transactions, too. So many ideas, so little time... :)

Maybe you can look at AqBanking for receiving transactions. Some people build Docker containers for this, so installation should not be a mess.
