[v2.0.0] Test Report: @kevinschaich

[kevinschaich]

All, thanks for your incredible patience here. Today is the day.

Version 2.x.x represents an almost complete rewrite from the ground-up, expect it to be rough around the edges until we complete a few rounds of beta testing. Thanks for helping make Mintable better.

What's New in v2.0.0

• Complete (~4000 lines) rewrite: Kept all the good stuff from v1.x.x, trimmed the fat where possible.
• Migration to Typescript: Easier to reason about correctness & establish rigid API constraints for integrations.
• Migration Script: Migrate your v1.x.x installation over in one command.
• Simplified Install Process/Documentation: Get up-and-running with Mintable in 3 commands.
• Global npm package: Call mintable as a command, anywhere on your machine without cloning anything.
• mintable CLI/setup wizard: Configure everything through an automated CLI-based setup wizard.
• Config Validation: Tells you the exact spot where your config is broken (if relevant).
• Better Logging: Almost every point of failure logs a human-readable error message.
• Debug Mode: Optionally log the results of every API request to debug strange behavior.
• Error Reporting: Click a single link which auto-fills an issue on GitHub with error/machine info.
• Balances Sheet: View the balances of all your accounts automatically on one sheet.
• Per-Account Configuration: Pull some accounts from Plaid, and others from a CSV (like Apple Card).
• CSV Exporter: Optionally export your results to a CSV file and use Excel/Numbers if you don't trust Google.
• Lots more

What's Not Working Yet

• #69 Sheets are not getting sorted correctly
• #68 Accounts table is broken if you have not setup any accounts yet
• #67 Calling updateConfig with the initialize argument nukes existing config if it exists
• #50 Export to CSV option (instead of Google Sheets)
• #49 Spreadsheet/CSV importer for banks not on Plaid
• #46 Add a test suite
• #57 Transaction Overrides
• #58 Transaction Filters
• Probably lots more

Testing Instructions

Please report an Issue for anything not listed above which seems like a regression/bug and apply the Bug: v2.0.0 Beta label. If you encounter any issues with these instructions themselves or have any general feedback, please leave a comment below.
