The simple, turn-based budget.

Build Status

About

Bennedetto is a fresh, minimalist take on tracking your spending. Use the tool to

  1. Simplify your regular income and outcome into a single "$X per day" figure
  2. Track your day-to-day spending with as little overhead as possible
  3. Watch your progress with instant, usable feedback.

Building

To build the project, create a new virtual environment and activate it.

$ virtualenv --no-site-packages ~/.virtualenvs/bennedetto
$ source ~/.virtualenvs/bennedetto/bin/activate

Next, navigate to the source root, install the dev dependencies, and run the migrations.

$ cd ~/git/bennedetto
$ make install-dev
$ make migrate

Now create a superuser that will have access to both the django admin and the app itself.

$ make superuser

To start the webserver, run the familiar python manage.py runserver or use the alias provided in the Makefile

$ make run

Running inside Docker

To build the Docker image use

$ docker build -t bennedetto .

After that you may run it thus:

$ docker run -p 8000:8000 bennedetto

You can see the app now at http://localhost:8000

Compiling JavaScript

Rollups of the vendor scripts and stylesheets are available for those who aren't interested in clientside code, but if you do wish to hack the frontend, you will need to install some extra dependencies.

First, ensure node and nodejs-legacy are installed for your distribution.

Next, globally install the grunt package.

$ sudo npm install -g grunt-cli

Lastly, install the project npm dependencies

$ npm install

You should now be able to recompile the static resources with the command grunt build.

Running

Once your create a superuser as described in the build steps, you have access to the site as well as the admin page.

You can also register inferior users by more natural means by the "register" link on the login page.

To automatically calculate rates and "open" each day, setup an hourly cronjob to trigger the transact job. It should look something like this.

0 * * * * /path/to/python /path/to/bennedetto/manage.py transact

The job is intended to run hourly to account for different timezones. The app should open up each user's day precisely at their midnight.

Testing

To run the serverside tests

$ make test

Alternatively, you may install tox and run them that way.

To run the clientside tests

$ grunt test

Standards

Keep these nitpicks in mind when submitting pull requests

Commit Messages

  • Git's recommendation of (1) a subject less than 50 characters, (2) a blank line following the subject, and (3) a body wrapped at 72 characters per line
  • Present tense
  • Feature in subject if applicable

Example:

Authentication: removes password hardcodes from config

Refactors authentication to allow the user to choose
their password, rather than hard coding one for them

Python

I'd this project to follow PEP8 as closely as it can. However, in the spirit of avoiding foolish consistency, certain things are fine.

  • Lines falling past 80 characters are fine, so long as they are readable
  • For long lines, hanging indents are preferred

Example:

id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True,  # hanging indents
                      editable=False,    # for long lines
                      default=uuid4,
                      unique=True)
  • Django app names should be '-ing' words (e.g. tracking, authenticating)

JavaScript

  • Address warnings raised by JSHint
  • Wrap each file in an IIF that invokes strict mode
  • Use named functions as often as possible

Example:

(function() {
    'use strict';

    function MySomething() {
        /* stuff */
    }

    angular
        .module('bennedetto')
        .something('MySomething', [MySomething]);
}());
