# Automating a parking expenses report For the past year, I was consulting at a place where I could request reimbursement of parking expenses. This had to be claimed using a standard Excel template. This project automated a significant part of that: - Fetch parking costs for a certain month from my Paperless-ngx instance - Calculate costs after taxes and a grand total - Fill in an Excel sheet with the details - Convert the Excel sheet to PDF and append photos of parking costs Note: I don't expect anybody to have the same requirements as me here, but hopefully pieces can be useful to some. ## Usage The project uses Nix for dependency management. Example usage: ``` $ cd parking-expenses $ nix develop $ PAPERLESS_TOKEN=foo ./main.py -y 2025 -m 1 -p ABC-12-D -u https://paperless.example.com ```
