✨ BEAN-IDENTIFY ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the bean-identify page of the manual β€” section 1, User Commands, she's a real one πŸ’…


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

bean-identify β€” the little icon that goes "hey, I found your Beancount ledger, here's where the transactions come from" πŸ¦‹


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, here's the whole vibe, usage and all:

usage: bean-identify [-h] [--version]

       CONFIG_FILENAME DIR-OR-FILE [DIR-OR-FILE ...]

Identify files for import. That's the whole job. She looks, she points, she's done. Periodt. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ positional arguments πŸŽ€

  • CONFIG_FILENAME β€” the importer config file, bestie. It's a Python file, and inside it lives a data structure that's specific to your accounts β€” like, your accounts, nobody else's. Don't share it around, it's giving personal. πŸ”’
  • DIR-OR-FILE β€” filenames or directories to search through for files to import. You can pass a whole lil list of them, no cap. πŸ”

πŸ’… options πŸ’…

  • -h, --help β€” shows this help message and then dips. iconic behaviour honestly.
  • --version, -V β€” shows the program's version number and exits. short queen energy. ✨

lowkey important: that config file is a Python file, so it's literally code. treat it with the respect it deserves, bestie. πŸ™ˆ

mwah πŸ’‹ that's it, that's the page. this was bean-identify version 2.3.6, from April 2024, documented under BEAN-IDENTIFY(1). go identify some ledgers, you absolute main character 🫢🌸
