Upgrading
-
Rebuild with
make all. Gold migrations 0109–0111 apply on the first
read-write open. No reload is needed: the nextloadre-applies the
categories. -
Config change. Five category values are retired. A config rule or
a pin that names one fails at load, and the error names the value to
use instead:retired use instead INCOME_WAGESINCOME_SALARY, orINCOME_GIG_ECONOMYfor gig-platform payINCOME_OTHER_INCOMEINCOME_OTHERINCOME_SELF_EMPLOYMENTINCOME_CONTRACTORINCOME_RENTINCOME_RENTALINCOME_ALIMONY_AND_CHILD_SUPPORTINCOME_CHILD_SUPPORT, orINCOME_ALIMONYfor maintenance from a former partnerEdit
wealthdb.cfgand the pins ledgers when you rebuild. The earlier
build refuses the new values, so make both changes at the same time.
Migration 0111 moves the stored verdicts the same way. A stored
verdict on the split value becomesINCOME_CHILD_SUPPORT. -
Optional:
wealthdb categorize income --allasks the model again about
every payer, so it can use the new income values. Without it, existing
verdicts stay as they are. -
A demo directory built by an earlier release needs

Plaid
- A new collector,
collectors/plaid, reads the banks, brokers and card
issuers that Plaid reaches:link --item NAMElinks one login at one institution. You sign in
on Plaid's own page, in your browser.login --checkreports the state of every link and changes nothing.downloadsaves accounts, balances, holdings, transactions and loan
terms.loadbuilds one silver database per link, andprunetrims
old downloads.
- It is read-only. A link requests data products only, never a payment
or a transfer product. - The app keys live in
~/.secrets/plaid.env, and each link has its own
token file there, mode 0600. download --refreshasks Plaid to fetch fresh holdings from the
institution first. Plaid bills that call on a paid plan, so it runs
only whenbilled_readsin$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/plaid.cfgnames it.- Gold reads each link as one source of the new silver kind
plaid.
Accounts take their kind from Plaid's account type, and rows take
their category from Plaid. - See
collectors/plaid/README.mdandwealthdb/docs/adapters/plaid.md.
Read the collector's security disclaimer before you add a credential.
Categories
- The category list is Plaid's Personal Finance Categories, version 2.
Its values and descriptions are copied word for word, under 13 of its
18 primaries. wealthdb adds a value only where Plaid has none, such as
investment fees, withholding tax, staking, rewards and alimony. - New values: late fees, cash-advance fees, salary, gig economy,
contractor, rental, child support, veterans benefits, long-term
disability and alimony. - Labels that change in reports:
- Wages becomes Salary.
- Rent becomes Rental.
- Self employment becomes Contractor.
- Alimony and child support becomes Child support or Alimony.
- In the cash flow statement, gig-economy and contractor pay are
earnings, rental income is yield, and child support, alimony,
veterans benefits and long-term disability are benefits. - A row the provider filed as a bank fee or a debt payment is no longer
read as a cash withdrawal. A built-in fee rule no longer overrides a
fee the provider named. - A card's fee that nothing else placed is a bank fee. It read as an
investment fee.
Build and docs
- Pins and transfer-override ledgers are read before gold opens for
writing, so a bad ledger fails before anything loads. reload -agives carried verdicts their current category names.- An env-file error no longer prints the line it failed on, which may
hold a secret.
