Tallywallet helps Engineers understand Money and Banking.

You can use it to create economic simulations, or to enable your applications with currency exchange and accounting features.

This package

Tallywallet is a very young project. This package implements the following:

Code

• Functions to work with Promissory Notes
• A Ledger class for double-entry accounting
• An Exchange class to enable currency trading
• Pre-hoc calculation of exchange rate gains on currency trading accounts
• Evaluation of the Fundamental Accounting Equation to verify balanced accounts
• A text format for saving Ledgers to file

Documentation

• A how-to on loans, discounting, and amortization
• A tutorial on how to achieve foreign currency exchange in Python code
• An example of a macroeconomic monetary circuit simulation

Requirements

Tallywallet requires Python 3. It uses setuptools for installation, but normally it has no external runtime dependencies.

Tallywallet comes with unit tests. To run them all requires the RSON package.

Quick start

Clone the git repository:

git clone [email protected]:tundish/tallywallet-common.git
cd tallywallet-common

Install the package and its dependencies:

python3 -m pip install .[docbuild,test]

Roadmap

Tallywallet's mission is to provide a validated Pythonic framework for money trading and economic applications.

It is developed by a private individual but released to the public under the GNU Affero General Public License.

The API may change significantly as the project proceeds. At this early stage, you should only use the latest release, which may not be compatible with previous versions.
