# nu_plugin_from_beancount
[](#Unlicense)
[](https://crates.io/crates/nu_plugin_from_beancount)
A [nushell] extension convert [beancount] file into nu structured data.
When using [nushell] one could run `bean-example | from beancount` or `open my-ledger.beancount` to get a nushell structured
table that can be further transformed and manipulated.
[nushell]: https://www.nushell.sh/
[beancount]: https://beancount.github.io/docs/index.html
## Example
```nu
> bean-example | from beancount | where direcive == txn | take 1

```
## Companion scripts
Currently, this plugin is intentionally quite dumb and does nothing more than outputing the beancount file content without any transformation or resolution.
But for most ledgers, the content of the file does not contain all informations required for further analysis.
For example, the transactions are often not explicitely balanced (one posting has no explicit amount), making it hard to make any useful aggregation of the amounts.
Here are some "companion" scripts that you may find useful when working with `from beancount`.
> **Note**
> Those scripts are provided here as a suggestion. They are not thoroughy tested, and are not considered part of the plugin API.
```nu
# Negate a structured amount (which is a record of currencies to values)
def "bean amount neg" [] {
transpose currency value | update value { -($in.value) } | transpose -ird
}
# Complete transactions that are not explitly balanced, so that all transactions balance
def "bean resolve txn" [] {
each {|row|
if $row.directive != "txn" { $row } else {
let offset_accounts = ($row.postings | where amount == $nothing | get -i account)
if ($offset_accounts | is-empty) { $row } else {
let complete_postings = ($row.postings | where amount != $nothing)
let offset_account = ($offset_accounts | first)
let offset_amount = ($complete_postings | get amount | math sum | bean amount neg)
$row | update postings ($complete_postings | append {account: $offset_account, amount: $offset_amount})
}
}
}
}
