quicken4j

Java library for reading Quicken Exchange Format (QIF) files.

File format

See description of QIF file format on WikiPedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicken_Interchange_Format

Maven

Use the following dependency to include it in your Maven project:

    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.github.fracpete</groupId>
      <artifactId>quicken4j</artifactId>
      <version>0.0.3</version>
    </dependency>

Example

The following example reads in the file simple.qif and prints out for each transaction the date, amount and payee.

import java.io.File;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.QIFReader;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.Transaction;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.Transactions;
...
QIFReader reader = new QIFReader();
Transactions trans = reader.read(new File("simple.qif"));
for (Transaction t: trans)
  System.out.println(t.getDate() + "\n  " + t.getAmount() + "\n  " + t.getPayee());

You can also read them with a specific encoding, e.g., Windows-1252:

import java.io.File;
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.QIFReader;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.Transaction;
import com.github.fracpete.quicken4j.Transactions;
...
QIFReader reader = new QIFReader();
Transactions trans = reader.read(new File("simple.qif", Charset.forName("Windows-1252")));
for (Transaction t: trans)
  System.out.println(t.getDate() + "\n  " + t.getAmount() + "\n  " + t.getPayee());
