Root – Programmable bank account for software developers

Re:Root – Programmable bank account for software developers by RangerScience on Wednesday May 03, 2017 @02:25PM (#14258617)

1) Is there any way to get the itemized receipt as part of the event information? (I don't even know if that's sent by the credit card widgets...)

2) What are your plans for supporting other languages? (cough Ruby cough)

3) How would I make a script integrate with a 3rd service?

Hi RangerScience, the APIs are based on REST, so any language that can handle https are supported. We're also working on libraries for a bunch of popular languages :)

I would like to volunteer writing bindings for Python.

I would like to volunteer writing binding for as many languages as you can come up with, but I can't guarantee I won't shave off a fraction of a cent in transactions. Or that I'll get the decimal placement right when dealing with that "fraction"...

In all seriousness, I would be fairly worried running someone else's code on my bank account unless it was very straightforward. Even forgoing malice and incompetence, there's plenty of "wow, that's a crazy interaction between systems that wasn't obvious" to go around.
