@jcrben Do you mind if I merge https://github.com/manishrjain/into-ledger/pull/19 here? It does seem to improve things quite a lot.

jcrben commented 5 years ago

Go for it altho I think it could be cleaned up

cljoly commented 5 years ago

Ok, thanks!

jcrben commented 5 years ago

also fyi, I switched to beancount and never used this tool much

cljoly commented 5 years ago

Thanks for your feedback! But from what I see from the beancount documentation, there is no automatic categorization of transactions. But import from files seems quite nice. I guess you didn't need automatic categorization that much, right?

I wrote an importer from my current transaction location (pocketsmith.com - like a mint that you pay for, I pay $80/year). My pocketsmith.com account has a bunch of rules that do automatic categorization and also a pretty good tool to run thru them manually similar to this tool. Eventually I'll drop pocketsmith.com and write importers for my main bank ally.com if I can't find one - there are a few listed at https://awesome-beancount.com/#importers.

There are some tools out there for automatic categorization such as https://github.com/beancount/smart_importer

I did end up using hledger for a bit and imported with https://github.com/quentinsf/icsv2ledger but it doesn't have the rigorous syntax of beancount and doesn't really support investments and foreign exchange in the rigorous way that beancount does.

That looks great, I will have a few things to try ;-)
