Allowances

keeping track of my children's money since 2013

Why

Originally I wanted to write a from-scratch, non-tutorial web application in go. After a few years of writing web stuff in go. My wife came to rely on this and when she asked me to stand up the service again I couldn't get past how bad the code looked so I polished things up.

how

you can safely install this by running the following:

$ go get mcquay.me/allowances/...

One can initialize the password and children db as follows:

$ allowances pw add $PASS
$ allowances children add $DB a b c d

and run the server as such:

export PASSES=/tmp/passes.json
export DB=/tmp/children.json
allowances serve
