Hello Tim,
That method is in beancount_reds_importers/libreader/reader.py, see here
<https://github.com/redstreet/beancount_reds_importers/blob/51597c8ca0bc7dba913267a52ea241e538bc1097/beancount_reds_importers/libreader/reader.py#L23>.
If you imported the class correctly, that error should not occur:
class AmexCCImporter(banking.Importer, csvreader.Importer):
def custom_init(self):
# blah blah: Look at discover/__init__.py and replace ofxreader with
csvreader.
Let me know if that worked.
But the more interesting answer to your question is: have you setup direct
downloads
<https://reds-rants.netlify.app/personal-finance/direct-downloads/> (vs
logging in via a browser)? If so, you'll get ofx from Amex, all from the
command line that you can stick into a script. I checked my Amex two
minutes ago, works fine and dandy:
ofxget stmt --nokeyring -u yourusername --password $(pass
beancount/amex_card) amex -c 'CODECODE|last5' > ~/Downloads/amex_card.ofx
There's a one-time step to get your unique CODECODE, and I forget how it's
done, but it's a pretty simple, single step IIRC, using ofxget. Post here
if you're unable to get your code, and I'll try to dig up what I did.
RedS.
