Specifying beancount file when ingesting

[Sam Bragg]

I've written my own importer.py file which does the following:

• defines an importer class (containing an extract method only - it's consuming an API response, not a file)
• a call to a http client to download transactions via API
• a call to scripts_utils.ingest([MyImporter(api_response)])

I use the following command to run my importer script:

python importer.py extract

I just can't seem to figure out how to specify my .beancount file so that transactions can actually be posted to it!

[Martin Blais]

python importer.py --downloads=$HOME/Downloads extract -f ledger.beancount

Thank you Martin!

To take this one step further, is there a way I can specify arguments in the importer file itself, so I don't have to specify them on the command line?

Then I can just run the importer without any args.
