The Budget gem is an object that models a person's monthly budget. You can add income records and expenses for the person. The goal is to make sure income equals expenses. When income and expenses equal, complete will equal true. The remaining variable will be how much money that person has left to "manage" before income and expenses equals.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'budget'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install budget
Declare an instance of the object like normal:
foo = Budget.new
Add money coming in, or income, like this:
foo.add_income(Amount, Memo, Date)
Amount: Must be a numeric value Memo: Defaults to "Income Item x" where x is the number of income records Date: Defaults to now
Add money going out, or expenses, like this:
foo.add_expense(Amount, Memo, Date)
Parameters behave in the same way as add_income function
Set the month and year of budget like this:
foo.set_month(Month, Year)
Month: Must be an integer between 1 and 12 Year: Must be an integer
Check to see if budget is complete:
foo.complete?
Returns true if total income equals total expenses, otherwise returns false. The goal should be to make total income and total expenses equal so budget is a zero sum budget.
Variables on object:
foo.total_income Total income for the month foo.total_expenses Total expenses for the month foo.remaining Difference between total_income and total_expenses foo.month Month of budget foo.year Year of budget foo.income Array of all income records foo.expense Array of all expense records
