@boarteam/fix-dict-fix44

The complete FIX 4.4 dictionary as data (912 fields / 93 messages / 105 components / 23 datatypes) for the @boarteam/fix engine. Generated directly from the QuickFIX FIX44.xml data dictionary — never hand-maintained.

import { createFixEngine } from '@boarteam/fix';
import { dictionary, Tags, MsgType } from '@boarteam/fix-dict-fix44';

const fix = createFixEngine(dictionary);
const wire = fix.encode({ msgType: MsgType.NewOrderSingle, fields: { [Tags.ClOrdID]: 'A1' } });

Or build the same message with the typed message factory — statically typed to each message's fields/groups, rendering byte-identical to encode:

import { message, MsgType } from '@boarteam/fix-dict-fix44';

const wire = message(MsgType.NewOrderSingle)
  .set('ClOrdID', 'A1')
  .set('Side', '1') // typed to the Side value union
  .render({
    SenderCompID: 'ME',
    TargetCompID: 'YOU',
    MsgSeqNum: 1,
    SendingTime: '20260716-12:00:00',
  });

Exports: dictionary (the data), Tags (field name → tag), TagNames (tag → field name), MsgType (message name → MsgType value), MsgTypeNames (MsgType value → message name), Enums (field name → spec value name → wire string, e.g. Enums.MDEntryType.BID === '0'), a top-level const per enumerated field (Side, OrdType, MDEntryType, ...), and DICTIONARY_VERSION. MsgType and every per-field const are also same-name types — unions of their wire values — so msgType: MsgType and side: Side work in type positions. The one enumerated field without a top-level const is MsgType (tag 35), whose name belongs to the message-type map: use Enums.MsgType.

For the typed encode side it also exports message (a factory bound to this dictionary), MessageBodies (the MsgType value → body-type registry), and a named body type per message (NewOrderSingleBody, MarketDataSnapshotFullRefreshBody, …) plus augmentable per-container group/component interfaces (SecListGrp_NoRelatedSymEntry, InstrumentFields, …) that venue extensions patch via declaration merging. For the read side it exports isMessageType — a type guard that narrows a MessageView<any> of unknown type to a specific message's body keyed on its MsgType value (so get() becomes typed) — and MessageOf<M>, the matching annotation alias. The typed-message API is documented in full in the Typed messages guide.
