Thanks, awesome plugin. Envelope budgeting is one of the only features that beancount/fava is missing. Fava's current budgeting feature is not a true envelope system. This is a great start at implementing these features. A couple of comments:
* Errors are difficult to troubleshoot. If there is any error in fava-envelope, fava reports "Loading http://localhost:5000/example-file/extension/EnvelopeBudget/ failed." I don't know enough about fava, but is it possible to pipe errors from plugins into fava's error page? * Is there any way to group all unmapped expenses into an unbudgeted envelope mapping by default? * Would be easier if money could be allocated to an envelope once and then have fava-envelope assume that the allocations are the same each month, until the allocations are updated.
