IDES Receiver

The IDES Receiver is a Single-Page Application that can decrypt and decompress zip files received from the IRS via the IDES gateway.

It is published at http://shadiakiki1986.github.io/IDES-Receiver/

It does so serverlessly, purely on your local machine in your own browser, in 3 steps:

1. Import your PEM-formatted RSA Private key
2. Open the received zip file
3. and generate the XML content

Supported browsers

• General: modern browser, tested on firefox 41.02
• Generating the XML file: https://github.com/eligrey/FileSaver.js/#supported-browsers

Under the hood

• forge.js
• JSZip
• FileSaver.js
• Bootstrap
• Angular
• JQuery

The following is the software I developed to generate the compressed and signed zip files submitted to IDES

• fatca-ides-php: Php library that converts bank client data to file format submittable for FATCA at IDES gateway
• IDES-Data-Preparation-Php: Php implementation of submitting data to www.idesgateway.com. Uses fatca-ides-php

Usage

• Could use the published version at http://shadiakiki1986.github.io/IDES-Receiver/
• or just clone the repository locally
• and run python -m SimpleHTTPServer from the www folder
• or just firefox www/index.html

Dev note 1: Installation

The SPA is published at http://shadiakiki1986.github.io/IDES-Receiver/

If it is desired to install the IDES Receiver on your local server:

make install

Dev note 2: Publishing from master branch to gh-pages branch

First checkout of remote branch locally

git checkout -b gh-pages origin/gh-pages

Copying files from master to gh-pages

make publish

If there were any "new" files that were added, a "git add" is needed in "gh-pages" branch followed by a commit and push

Finally, return to master branch

git checkout master

TODO

• update cipher from cbc to ecb (or other way around?)
• undefined cipher: is this cbc vs ecb? (check console log 'decrypting payload') when deciphering the sample I provide on the page vs the example zip file i have in the shadi-configs
• if rsa private key does not correspond to the zip file, a console error shows "encryption block is invalid"
