New code is being written in there but it's not being run through the main pass (there are two parsers in there, the new one is still undergoing development). > 2. when i run configure.py, it generates empty file, what can be the > reason for this? > [...] beangrow has been written a good long time ago and it did work great at the time. I haven't run it in about a year myself, since I've switch a much more active trading style, so there may have been drift and breakage. (FWIW I've been developing a completely different trade reporting system to accommodate active trading (https://github.com/beancount/johnny) but it's much more complicated and doesn't integrate well into beancount yet.) Unlike beancount, beangrow is a bit more experimental and much less mature than beancount, you'll have to insert debugging code and figure out why somehow the inferred configuration isn't working. It's not something I have ongoing tests for, and I have more than 10 active projects + a full time job, not enough cycles to keep all of those in tip-top shape. > 3.

You should be able to create an input configuration that works on your regular Beancount file. 4.
