NAME

bean-price - fetch from the internet commodity prices for Beancount processing

DESCRIPTION

usage: bean-price [-h] [--version] [-e] [-v] [-d DATE] [-i] [-u UNDECLARED]
[-c] [-a] [-s] [-n] [--cache CACHE_FILENAME] [--no-cache] [--clear-cache] sources [sources ...]
Fetch prices from the internet and output them as Beancount price directives.

positional arguments:

sources
A list of filenames (or source "module/symbol", if -e is specified) from which to create a list of jobs.

options:

-h, --help
show this help message and exit
--version, -V
show program's version number and exit
-e, --expressions, --expression
Interpret the arguments as "module/symbol" source strings.
-v, --verbose
Print out progress log. Specify twice for debugging info.
-d DATE, --date DATE
Specify the date for which to fetch the prices.
-i, --inactive
Select all commodities from input files, not just the ones active on the date
-u UNDECLARED, --undeclared UNDECLARED
Include commodities viewed in the file even without a corresponding Commodity directive, from this default source. The currency name itself is used as the lookup symbol in this default source.
-c, --clobber
Do not skip prices which are already present in input files; fetch them anyway.
-a, --all
A shorthand for --inactive, --undeclared, --clobber.
-s, --swap-inverted
For inverted sources, swap currencies instead of inverting the rate. For example, if fetching the rate for CAD from 'USD:google/^CURRENCY:USDCAD' results in 1.25, by default we would output "price CAD 0.8000 USD". Using this option we would instead output " price USD 1.2500 CAD".
-n, --dry-run
Don't actually fetch the prices, just print the list of the ones to be fetched.

cache:

--cache CACHE_FILENAME
Enable the cache and with the given cache name.
--no-cache
Disable the price cache.
--clear-cache
Clear the cache prior to startup
