Amazon Plugin for MoneyMoney

Installation

You can get the signed version from https://moneymoney-app.com/extensions/amazon-orders.lua. The unsigned beta and latest versions are available from this repository.

To activate the extension, copy the file into ~/Library/Containers/com.moneymoney-app.retail/Data/Library/Application\ Support/MoneyMoney/Extensions. If you have cloned this repository you can use the link_ext.sh script in a shell. A restart is not required, it will load automatically. You can verify installation using Window → Log.

Look out: MoneyMoney only runs unsigned plugins in the beta version and you need to disable signature check in the extentsion settings.

Usage

After installation go to Add new accountOthersAmazon Orders. There are a few different account types:

Config

Some hard coded parameters can be overwritten in the MoneyMoney account settings:

Performance

The script caches some data, but the first time it scrapes your whole order history. In facts ~10 years of shopping with about 230 orders with 340 positions takes 12 minutes in the first run! The second run needs 2 minutes. After that all data is cached so a normal run needs 20-30 seconds.

Reset cache to enforce full order history reload

In MoneyMoney right-click the account, select settings, then notes. Add the attribute resetCache with any value, e.g. today's date. Going forward, whenever the attribute value gets changed, the cache is cleared and the whole account is reread.

Blacklist invalid orders

Orders that cause erros can be omitted via the blackListOrders attribute in the settings. Simply enter the order numbers separated by commas as a value. See screen shot above.

Warranty

Nope, no warranty! When the script orders 10 tons of dog food every day, it's your problem!
