mintapi

a screen-scraping API for Mint.com.

Requirements

Ensure you have Python 2 or 3 and pip (easy_install pip) and then:

pip install mintapi

Usage

from Python

From python, simply call get_accounts. We recommend using the keyring library for persisting credentials.

import mintapi
accounts = mintapi.get_accounts(email, password)

from anywhere

Run it as a sub-process from your favorite language; pip install mintapi creates a binary in your $PATH. From the command-line, the output is JSON:

>>> mintapi email password
[
  {
    "accountName": "Chase Checking", 
    "lastUpdatedInString": "25 minutes", 
    "accountType": "bank", 
    "currentBalance": 100.12,
    ...
  },
  ...
]

If you need to avoid using pip or setup.py, you can also clone/download this repository and run: python mintapi/api.py email password
