Looking for (co-)maintainers

[marzzzello]

Hello everyone,
I wanted to share an update regarding pytr. As you may have noticed there hasn't been much development activity since a while. I initially started this project for my personal use, to automate downloading PDFs from TradeRepublic and import them into Portfolio Performance. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that more people than I anticipated found this project helpful and began using it as well. As the user base grew, so did the responsibility to maintain and improve the project.

Since I no longer use TradeRepublic, I haven't felt the need to continue improving and fixing things. However, I understand that some of you may still find this project useful and want to keep it alive.
That's why I am looking for people that are interested in maintaining and further developing this. I encourage you to reach out by commenting here or sending me an email. If you're already familiar with the code base and have made some contributions through pull requests, that would be fantastic (though not required). We can then discuss how to proceed.
Also feel free to ask questions about the code base. If you want look the TR API, a good start would be to open the browser console on the TR web app and observe the network/websocket traffic.

In the meantime, everyone can contribute by responding to open issues, submitting new pull requests, and reviewing existing ones. When a pull request has positive feedback from others, I can merge and release new versions. Together, we can ensure the project remains functional and continuously improve its features.

Looking at the recent pull requests and interactions, @MartinScharrer and/or @Katzmann1983 might be good candidates if they are willing to take over.

I would have interest. Currently I am working on some larger modification to export CSVs for Portfolio Performance based on my pull request. My plan was to create a new script based on pytr which works a little different and publish it as a new project, but I could also port some of it to the original script.

Hello everybody! I too would have interested but for the moment I can't get any version yubiuser and marzzzello properly working. Not a good starting point to help.

@MartinScharrer Thank you, I send you a maintainer invitation

[Katzmann1983]

Thanks for the honor. @marzzzello: Would love too help here :D

[marzzzello]

@Katzmann1983 Thanks, I also send you an invitation

[Katzmann1983]

Thank you @marzzzello
Do you also want me to be able to upload a new version to pip?

[marzzzello]

@Katzmann1983 The CI automatically publishes to PyPI on new tags. So no need to manually publish releases there

I had some ideas about restructing the package and adding a conversion into CSV which is compatible for direct import with Portfolio Performance (PP). What I basically needed was only the dl_docs command to get the PDFs and an export into CSV for the orders and the (non-order related) cash account transactions for two separate imports.

As this was quite a big change I first started this as a branch in my pytr fork, but then decided to do a separate package. This way I was able to add some different handling and command line options without worrying about backwards compatibility. You find the package under https://github.com/martinscharrer/pytrpp/. The git repository is still based on the one of pytr but github does not handle it as fork.

We can discuss backporting some of the features into pytr.

Hi, I can see that there has been no maintainer activity for about two months, since early November. Could anything be done about that? I would also be willing to help with maintenance.
