beancount-reds-plugins

A collection of plugins for Beancount double entry accounting. Each directory contains a plugin for Beancount. See README.md in individual directories for plugin descriptions.

Plugin list:

• effective_date: enables per-posting dates (each posting in a transaction can have a different date)
• rename_accounts: rename arbitrary accounts on the fly (eg: move Taxes from Expenses to Income when you temporarily want to view all your Expenses except taxes)
• zerosum: find matching paris of postings that sum up to zero. Useful in de-duplication, and tracking things such as reimbursements, rebates, etc.
• capital_gains_classifier (experimental): rewrites capital gains into separate accounts for gains and losses

Installation

pip install beancount-reds-plugins

Usage

Invoke and configure a plugin by including it in your beancount source. For example, invoke the rename_accounts plugin like so:

plugin "beancount_reds_plugins.rename_accounts.rename_accounts" "{

 }"

See README.md in individual directories for how to configure each plugin.
