Clinton automatically renames PDF invoices and bills according to their contents, such as dates, sums, and other relevant information.

I got frustrated with certain SaaS vendors naming their invoices with e.g. just an opaque number, making it impossible to easily identify them for correlating with expense management systems.

This is obviously rough around the edges.

• Extract dates, sums, and other key information from PDF files using pdfminer and custom rules.
• Copy-rename files based on extracted information

Bill. Bill Clinton.

To start using Clinton:

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install the required dependencies; pip install -e . should do. (Remember to use a virtualenv!)
3. Unless you happen to use the exact same cloud services I do, you may need to augment the files in clinton/maps. Contributions are welcome!
4. Run python -m clinton *.pdf to see what it'd extract from the files; run with the -d DIR parameter to have it copy-rename them to DIR.
