This task is simple enough there's really no need for the library to provide common code to do that.

It's not entirely obvious how to do this for everybody; the definition of what's a duplicate depends on how much you manually massage your transactions. I haven't really tried very hard to generalize this well, so it's best you define your own code for that. Generally speaking, the ingestion framework is minimal and more or less a DIY affair. It tries to provide a basic set of tools but it's certainly not a full solution, some coding is certainly needed. I don't know what a "full" solution might look like, there's too much variation to attempt to cover everyone's needs (IMHO). > > Thanks, > > Florian > > > -- > 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/42c62fc8-64b9-48c6-a5b1-ca135532059d%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/beancount/42c62fc8-64b9-48c6-a5b1-ca135532059d%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.
