jtbanka2mbox

Convertor of J&T Banka XML statements into sMoneybox import CSV files.

Small command line utility to convert J&T Banka savings account transaction history (saved from the online banking, in a number of XML files) to a CSV file compatible with sMoneybox import. The tool uses a small JSON configuration file to map (transaction) end-to-end codes to (sMoneybox) categories.

Usage

$ ./bin/jtbanka2mbox --in <XML_FILENAMES_PREFIX> --out <CSV_FILENAME> [--config <MAPPING_FILENAME>]

The tool is written in TypeScript for recent version of node.js, the node binary must be in system PATH. To install the dependencies and compile it, run

$ yarn && yarn build

If the config command line option is not provided, mapping.json default filename is used.

Configuration

To map (bank account transaction) end-to-end codes to (sMoneybox) categories, create a simple JSON file with the mapping and pass the filename in config command line option (or store it as mapping.json file in current directory).

Besides the individual codes to map, there are some special keys in the mapping object you can provide:

• interest: the category to which the savings account interests will be added,
• empty: the category to use in case no end-to-end code for the transaction was provided, and
• default: the category to use in case no other more specific mapping was found.

In case the tool cannot map a transaction to category, you'll get a warning and the resulting sMoneybox category will be left empty.

JSON configuration file format / example:

{
    "123": "vacation",
    "456": "car",
    "789": "house",
    "interest": "house"
}

XML files

J&T Banka provides daily statements, so you'll likely have a number of downloaded XML files for the period you want to import into sMoneybox.

For this reason the in command line option is not a single filename (eventhough it could be!), but rather a (string) prefix of the XML filenames to process.

It can for example be 2020 for all XML statements of year 2020, or 202006 for statements from June 2020 only.

The files to process must have '.xml' or '.XML' extensions only!
