After working on many prototypes, setting up cgit, receiving permission from my employer to publish, presenting the idea at ConleyCon 2015, and finally switching from shell scripts to Python, I am pleased to present the first code commit to “finctrl”, my attempt at automating financial control. Please find the repository at http://212.47.237.237/git/finctrl/. It currently works by downloading email notifications of transactions from a “Cashflow” IMAP folder and parses them assuming the winter 2015 coastal24.com format. Support for additional input and output formats will hopefully follow soon. (I’ve got shell scripts for Chase; it should be quick and easy to port that to Python, but making a generic framework may take significant work.)
