A few Python scripts are used to parse the +contents of the file, for example, to serve the contents as a locally +running web server. Scripts are provided to convert from OFX files into +Ledger input format, and other formats (easily extensible). + +Beancount provides a simple web front to view the contents of the +database, so you don't have to parse the entire file everytime you want +to view a different account (this helps mitigate the fact that parsing +is comparatively slow). |
