Watcard

A command line tool for accessing your watcard history and balance.

Installation

Install the gem with:

$ gem install watcard

Create the config file ~/.watcard.yml:

---
# Student id and watcard pin
id: 12345678
pin: 1234
# Daily food budget to use for reference (in dollars)
budget: 19
# Ledger output file
ledger: ~/Box/Life/watcard.ldg
# Accounts to use in Ledger output for different watcard balances
accounts:
  # Meal Plan are account 1
  1: ["Expenses:Food:Meals","Assets:WatCard:Meal Plan"]
  # Flex Dollars are account 4
  4: ["Expenses:Misc University","Assets:WatCard:Flex"]

Note: you can find the web UI for setting your pin and online access here.

Usage

History

Fetches history for a day and compares it with the budget (if there is one).

$ watcard hist
# Fetching history for 2014-09-05 19:53:54 -0400
Breakfast: $3.14 @ V1 Cafeteria
Dinner: $5.78 @ V1 Cafeteria
= $8.92 out of $19 surplus: 10.08
$ watcard hist 1 # One day ago
# Fetching history for 2014-09-04 19:53:01 -0400
Breakfast: $6.24 @ V1 Cafeteria
Lunch: $7.70 @ Liquid Assets
Dinner: $6.28 @ V1 Cafeteria
= $20.22 out of $19 surplus: -1.22

Ledger

Outputs double entry transactions in ledger format and optionally appends them to a file.

$ watcard ledger 1
# Fetching history for 2014-09-04 20:06:31 -0400
# Transactions:

2014/09/04 Breakfast at V1 Cafeteria
