Importer Adapter to import from mail (imap) account

[Patrick Ruckstuhl]

Hi,


I created an importer adapter that allows to import statement files from
an imap account instead of having the file locally.


My setup consists of running fava on a remote machine. I'm having
several accounts where I get the statements per mail or can easily send
myself a mail with the statements (e.g. from a mobile app).

Until now my process looked like this.

1) Statement is in mail account

2) Open mail on my computer and store it to local folder

3) Upload file to remote machine

4) Run importer through fava


Now my process looks like this


1) Statements i in mail account

2) Run (mail) importer through fava => will scan mails for attachments
which are matching an importer and import it using that importer)


Thought this might be useful for someone else. You can find it as part
of my https://github.com/tarioch/beancounttools
