setting up zero-sum plugin to work

[jrgo...@gmail.com]

I really like the zerosum solution that Redstreet created for handling transfers and also how this can help with automation and it solves other issues. This solves the exact issue I was starting to face as I was getting setup. I'm trying to get the plugins to work but I'm getting an error message (perhaps it's something really simple ). 

1) I installed the plugins via pip successfully

(base) MacBook-Air:beandata jonathan$ pip show beancount-reds-plugins
Name: beancount-reds-plugins
Version: 0.1.0
Summary: A collection of plugins for Beancount
Home-page: https://github.com/redstreet/beancount_reds_plugins
Author: Red Street
License: GPL-3.0
Location: /Users/jonathan/opt/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages
Requires: beancount
Required-by:

2) when I try the sample file I get an error. Is there something I need to do elsewhere to get this to work? I thought I can use the existing bean-check code and just run it on the sample file. 

(2b) (base) MacBook-Air:beandata jonathan$ bean-check --version
Beancount 2.3.4 (git:5adf7b9a; 2021-03-20)

Removing the "plugins." part of the import string should make it work.

This was already fixed in 5a1474c a while ago, but it's been a while since I made a pip release. Just made one.

Thank you. The updated pip release works great. Thanks for creating this plugin. Really great contribution!

Great -- and glad you find it helpful. v3 will have this functionality mostly built-in.
