blessed-rs VS mintapi

I opened a PR to correct this.

This is my project (although I didn't submit this to HN), AMA

I consider quite incomplete at this point (but hopefully already useful). There are several categories of crate that just aren't covered yet (suggestions very welcome, either here or on the github repo https://github.com/nicoburns/blessed-rs).

I'd also like to add more hand curated content such as:

- Installation and developer environment setup

No, it's hand curated (see https://github.com/nicoburns/blessed-rs for source). There is a separate project https://lib.rs that takes a more automated approach (you can browse the most downloaded crates by count).

This sounds like the sort of thing I created https://blessed.rs to host (source: https://github.com/nicoburns/blessed-rs). I never really launched it, so it's a bit incomplete atm. But the idea is that it's a guide to all the stuff that can't be in the official docs (because that would be favouritism), but that every rust developer ought to know.

I've been quietly working on something like this over at https://blessed.rs (source: https://github.com/nicoburns/blessed-rs) At the moment it's just a curated list of crates (and still a fairly short one at that), but the vision is very much to be a go-to knowledge base for Rust, a community managed counterpart to the official website. I've been putting off an announcement until it's more ready, but perhaps it's better to get it out there.

Use this as an opportunity to learn to code https://github.com/mintapi/mintapi :D

If you're comfortable with programming in Python, the easiest thing to do is to use the unofficial MintApi library with your Mint.com account credentials.

I came from PHP, Python, and Go (in that order) with very limited experience in both C and C++ and now use Rust for everything with one exception - a scraper for mint.com that uses https://github.com/mintapi/mintapi. That has a lot going on, including spinning up a headless browser, and my code is virtually trivial, so the benefits of porting it to Rust are limited, and the work would be pretty significant.

As far as things I typically make, database-backed HTTP APIs are probably the most common, and influxdb collectors second most common.

I'm right there with you, just tried to manually add some transactions and holy shit what a dumpster fire. Thinking about this now: https://github.com/mintapi/mintapi

There is actually an API for mint, someone developed one on top of a selenium based web scraper. I developed a program that uses this API to stream in all my expenses from mint, then texts me what is under and over budget. Happy to share more specifics on what I did but im assuming you want to develop something yourself/specific to your case haha, if interested here is that API package: https://github.com/mrooney/mintapi
