I have been putting together a set of perl scripts, using WWW::Mechanize, to negotiate financial institution web sites to download OFX files and monthly statements. WWW::Mechanize is great at automating web-browsing, but unfortunately, it doesn't do javascript, which means I have had to painfully manually reimplement any javascript these sites use (setting cookies, redirections, hidden fields, etc.).
Happily, I happened upon the ofx.py and ofx-ba.py scripts at http://www.jongsma.org/gc/ which connect directly to the OFX servers, along with the list of OFX servers. Thanks! In principle, this should be enough for me to give up my own scripts. Except, I can't get ofx.py to work. 1. For Discover, even after changing the APPID and APPVER with config["appid"] = "Money" config["appver"] = "0900" the OFX file, which arrives with no error messages in it, has all boilerplate and no actual transactions. Any ideas? Unfortunately, I don't grok python. The script like it is requesting 31 days worth of transactions. 2. For Bank of America, there is no OFX server site listed in 5043.xml. I haven't managed to get that site working yet with my perl scripts either. Has anyone automated OFX download from B of A? Any help is appreciated! ----Jon _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
