Like if I want to keep track of payments I'd rather use my bank's API as well as any other service I use such as PayPal etc.

#42Have there been any commercial endeavors to make a project such as this? I have wanted something like that for a while, but I'd rather it be somewhat fully-baked and well supported. Still, congrats, it looks like great work, I'm planning on giving it a try.

#43Earlier quoted context omitted.
It's using Doctrine so the configuration should be easy to change in the .env file. Update the "DATABASE_URL" line to... `DATABASE_URL="sqlite:///%kernel.project_dir%/var/app.db"` And point it to the correct directory where your file is located.
I can't edit, but I was hoping the backticks would create a code block, so please ignore those backticks. Also, more details can be found on their documentation [0]. [0] https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine.html#configuring-th...
DATABASE_URL="sqlite:///%kernel.project_dir%/var/app.db"

#44I would love an app like this which actually let's me plug in other services through APIs and scrapers rather than have to input the data myself. Like if I want to keep track of payments I'd rather use my bank's API as well as any other service I use such as PayPal etc.

#48You should post on r/selfhosted ( https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/ ) Been waiting for something like this for a long time ... Only thing I would change is use sqlite rather than mysql. That way your data is in a single file that is easily portable.
mysqldump -u username -p database_name > data-dump.sql
and you can load that dump back in with
mysql -u username -p new_database I love sqlite3 for the ease of setting up, and the ability to use in any device or environment immediately, but I'll go to a more featured database like postgres or mysql for larger projects, or for speed. This projects seems to benefit with using mysql to be able to secure the database with a password, as well as the ability to have a timestamp type (but the project saves timestamps with a string rather than a datatime except for user login timestamps so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

#49This looks great, but it is very specific to the needs of the author. Which makes sense, if I have my own itches to scratch I should send a pull request. I won't, because my information is already organized, but these are the features that people interested in the project should know offhand: 1. Contacts are divided between those with phone numbers and those with email addresses. You cannot have a contact with both a…

Would you mind sharing an overview of your system?
I also make heavy use of the phone's voice recorder, and try to transcribe my voice notes periodically.
