the importers generate input but that input is only consumed later and that is when the open or closes are done. so i just put the plugin right at the top of my main ledger file and that takes care of it - i don't need to do anything else. if you are for some reason using different main ledgers then put the plugin call right at the top of each main ledger. from what i read below i think you are making this much more complicated than it really is. one statement is all i used and i've not done anything else like what you are talking about below this point but i'm not reading it too closely right now so perhaps you are trying to do things i don't need to do myself... fin > I actually copied the bean-extract.py source code ( ugh) into a=20 > bean-extract.py file which I launch from my IDE (so that i can attach=20 > debugger inside my importers).
