PeSIT WizardOpen-source PeSIT E file transfer

A single self-contained node that both listens and initiates PeSIT transfers — with a built-in web console, REST API, clustering, PKI and storage connectors. Apache-2.0.

Quick start

GitHub
🧩

One self-contained node

A single binary that listens for incoming transfers and initiates outgoing ones, with the web console built in. Run it directly, as a container, or on Kubernetes.

🔁

Full PeSIT E protocol

CRC, compression, article segmentation, synchronisation points with windowing, restart / resynchronisation, EBCDIC translation and TLS. Validated against IBM Sterling Connect:Express.

🖥️

Built-in web console

Configure listeners, partners, virtual files, connectors and certificates, and follow transfers live — served by the node itself, no separate front-end to host.

🔐

Certificates & PKI

A local CA, native HashiCorp Vault PKI, certificate rotation, CRL and an online OCSP responder — all in the box.

🗄️

Storage connectors

Back a virtual file with S3, SFTP or a local directory. Received files are staged and uploaded; sent files are fetched and streamed.

🌐

Clustering over NATS

Run several nodes as a cluster over NATS / JetStream — live configuration replication, leader election and schedules distributed across members.

Why PeSIT Wizard? ​

The PeSIT protocol (Protocole d'Échange pour un Système Interbancaire de Télécompensation) is the standard used by French banks for secure file exchanges. PeSIT Wizard is a modern implementation of PeSIT E, written in Rust and fully open source under Apache-2.0 — no editions, no license keys, every feature in one binary.

It is a drop-in alternative to legacy solutions such as Axway CFT / IBM Sterling Connect:Express: it speaks the same protocol on the wire (validated against Connect:Express 1.5), exposes everything over a REST API and a built-in web console, and runs anywhere a single binary or container can.

Use cases ​

  • Automated transfers — push your SEPA payment files to your bank from your ERP, on a schedule.
  • Statement retrieval — pull your account statements every morning into your accounting system.
  • Multi-bank centralisation — manage all your exchanges with several banks from one node.

One node, no split ​

Earlier releases shipped a separate server, client and admin console. PeSIT Wizard is now a single pesitwizard node that both listens and initiates, exposes two REST surfaces backed by one store, and serves its own web console. There is nothing else to deploy.
