README

expense-manager

A Go based expense manager and visulisation with a variety of input sources

Phase 1:

  • Use the Up Bank API to fetch existing transactions and store them in a SQLite database
  • Create webhooks so that it also fetches real-time transactions
  • Create a simple web UI to manually interact with the system using templ
    • Have some basic static charts using go-echarts to summarise spending

Phase 2:

  • Implement some level of authentication
  • Implement this in a runnable docker container

Phase 3:

  • Interactable UI
    • Have a UI in which you can interact with the transactions - give them additional metadata such as tags, photos (receipts/invoices)
    • Mutate the graphs - apply filters to change what the graphs output

How to develop

Dependencies
  1. Install the OpenAPI generator sudo npm install openapi-generator
  2. Install Templ and air
  1. Install Tailwind CSS Install using npm as we're already using NPM for the API client generation. Tailwind Installation
  2. Fetch the open-api definition JSON file curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/up-banking/api/master/v1/openapi.json
  3. Make sure that you've set your up bank token in the environment variables in your .bashrc or .zshrc file - typically located at ~/.<editor>rc Get your token from Up Bank
export UP_BANK_TOKEN='<your token here>' 
Automatically

Most of the comands have been simplified down to a really simple make file

Doing active development, run:

make watch  

as this will create a hot-reloading environment which will automatically update CSS, Templ generated HTML and Go logic while editing.

If you need to regenerate the upbank API client run:

make upclient-generate

If you want to generate a hard executable file then run:

make build
Manually
  1. Generate the REST client code
openapi-generator-cli generate   -i openapi.json   -g go   -o ./datafetcher/upclient   --additional-properties packageName=upclient   --git-user-id esteanes   --git-repo-id expense-manager/datafetcher/upclient

Its recommended to have a file called .openapi-generator-ignore inside the /upclient with the following contents:

# OpenAPI Generator Ignore

go.mod
go.sum
LICENSE

This will stop the generator from generating those files (which will mess up the Go compilation)

  1. Generate the TEMPL components templ generate

    • Note if you're finding it hard to run templ, it might be because $GOPATH is not on your $PATH so your computer can't find the executable. In that case either update your path or run ./$GOPATH/templ
  2. Format code gofmt -s -w .

  3. Fix up any import changes go mod tidy

  4. Build an executable

go build -o expense-manager
  1. Run the executable
./expense-manager

Helpful Commands

Add to your .bashrc file.

alias expenseManagerBuild="templ generate && gofmt -s -w . && go mod tidy && go build -o expense-manager"
alias expenseManagerBuildRun="templ generate && gofmt -s -w . && go mod tidy && go build -o expense-manager && ./expense-manager"
