Hi,

Has anyone built a more generalized CSV importer yet? I've followed the 
examples and started writing my own but realized something more generic 
would be beneficial and wanted to see what is out there and if I can adapt 
for my needs. 

Note, I'm currently working through 2 banks that do not offer any OFX 
files. I'm trying to mirror what Reds did here 
<https://github.com/redstreet/beancount_reds_importers> where you can 
define the following in the config file:

        'main_account'   : 
'Assets:US:Investments:Non-Retirement:Brokerage:Vanguard',

        'account_number' : '123456',

        'transfer'       : 
'Assets:Zero-Sum-Accounts:Transfers:Bank-Account',

        'dividends'      : 'Income:Taxable:Dividends:Brokerage',

        'cg'             : 'Income:Taxable:Capital-Gains:Brokerage',

        'fees'           : 'Expenses:Brokerage-Fees:Brokerage',

        'rounding_error' : 'Equity:Rounding-Errors:Imports',

        'fund_info'       : fund_info,



For CSVs from banks/credit card there are common types I was thinking of 
handling in the import process

1) interest/dividends

2) fees

3) mortgage/line of credit etc


Is it worth trying to write this in the the CSV importer and doing it a 
generic way? Or just is it not worth the effort and either use smart 
importer capability or manual assignment? 


thanks,

Jonathan
