Hey folks, I've been having so much fun adding more and more of my financial life to my personal beancount ledger files. I'm finally at a new point in my journey which is around taking advantage of beancount + fava investor and related plugins.
I'm trying to figure out how to get authoritative definitions of asset classes and allocations out of ticker-util which I believe sources this information from Yahoo?Or is it a manual process to get this information from somewhere else? When I run this command: uv run ticker-util gen-commodities-file \ --cf ledger/commodities-generated.beancount \ --prefix a__ \ --metadata quoteType,longName,isin,annualReportExpenseRatio,preferredPosition,bondPosition,convertiblePosition,otherPosition,cashPosition,stockPosition,category,fundFamily \ --appends isin \ --include-undeclared \ --write-file \ --confirm-overwrite Here is an example of what ticker-util writes: 2025-09-25 commodity BND a__quoteType: "ETF" name: "Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund" a__isin: "US9219378356" a__category: "Intermediate Core Bond" a__fundFamily: "Vanguard" 2025-09-25 commodity BNDX a__quoteType: "ETF" name: "Vanguard Total International Bond Index Fund" a__isin: "US92203J4076" a__category: "Global Bond-USD Hedged" a__fundFamily: "Vanguard" 2025-09-25 commodity FXAIX a__quoteType: "MUTUALFUND" name: "Fidelity 500 Index" a__isin: "US3159117502" a__annualReportExpenseRatio: "0.01" I'd like to get accurate asset_class, and asset_allocation_bond from somewhere in an automated fashion if possible. Right now I just accepted what ChatGPT tells me. :D Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
