# CathayCheck

Check the bank account balance with a script so it can be done automatically.

Credentials are the ID number, PIN, and a code chosen by the user, they are passed with
environmental variables at the moment.
Eg. in Linux: export ID=xxxxxxxxxx; export PIN=xxxx; export CODE=xxxxxx

Fixing a bunch of small tidbits, and will eventually move to a single file Python solution.

The output has a format as

2013-03-06T09:59:52+0800, 12345, 9876

which has the current date, total balance, and available balance. The date is fully qualified, though formatted for Taiwan's time zone since I'm here. Units are TWD (New Taiwan Dollar).

## Usage from cron

55 23 * * * export ID=XXXX; export PIN=XXXX; export CODE=XXXX; cd /home/user/cathaycheck; BALANCE=$(./banking.sh); echo $BALANCE >> cathay_balance.txt; echo $BALANCE | /usr/bin/mail -s "SUBJECT" "EMAIL"

This will check the balance and save it into a file called `cathay_balance.txt`, as well as sending an email to a specified address, all that every day at 23:55 at night.

## Dependencies

* Python 2.7.x
