Fall back to account name if official name not available

[davestimpert]

I have an account who's official_name is null, so it would be nice if I could have it fall back to name if official_name is null. This is tricky, though, because columns are configurable.

Hey @davestimpert – I've been meaning to tackle this for a while but I needed to refactor a couple things first so that we maintain backwards compatibility.

After some thinking, I think it's better to implement this at the provider level rather than the global level. The Plaid provider should be smart enough to preference the most complete name so that Mintable doesn't need to know about the internals of what's returned by Plaid.

I think #28 / the v1.2.1 release should fix this for you. You'll want to run yarn migrate if you're still on an older version of Mintable, and then changing the following in mintable.config.json should do the trick:

{
  ...
  "TRANSACTION_COLUMNS": [
    "date",
    "amount",
    "name",
-   "account_details.official_name",
+  "account"
    "category.0",
    "category.1",
    "pending"
  ],
  ...
}
