I wanted to gather some ideas for stuff in daily life that could be automated using Python. I will share with you my two examples.
I am using hledger for keeping track of my finances. It was tedious to manually add all transactions, so I build a python script that converts csv file generated from my bank account to hledger syntax. Additionally it automatically assigns categories based on title of transaction.
Second one. I am keeping backup of certain directories in my computer using rsync. I have written script that makes sure that everything is properly mounted, before making backup, and then automatically performs all backups.
Please tell me, what tasks have you automated, that are saving you time or improving your life.
