- You write a .import config file which is essentially a Python list of
importer objects configured with your account names
- You run bean-extract with it and with some directory when your download
stuff from your bank/credit cards
- bean-extract looks at all the files in that directory and identifies
which file it to be processed by which importer ("identify")
- bean-extract then runs each of the matching importers on them
- you redirect that output to a file
- you then manually eyeball (they like to say "reconcile") for correctness,
complete ("categorize") and copy paste the imported transactions in the
relevant part of your .beancount file, in the manner that suits you bestOn Thu, Oct 19, 2017 at 1:46 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I think I still don't understand the expected workflow for bean-extract. > How do people automatize the process of running bean-extract periodically > and appending the result to their ledger? > > On Monday, October 16, 2017 at 9:46:47 PM UTC-7, Lluis Pamies-Juarez wrote: >> >> New issue 198: bean-extract ignores output file arguments, redirects >> everything to stdout >> https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issues/198/bean-extrac >> t-ignores-output-file-arguments >> >> Lluis Pamies-Juarez: >> >> >> >> >> -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Beancount" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ > msgid/beancount/44365d9c-8644-42b0-8b7d-8994b9de296c%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/beancount/44365d9c-8644-42b0-8b7d-8994b9de296c%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
