This is a You Need a Budget client but it's incomplete. Right now the only supported endpoints are the ones necessary to do the Age of Money calculation.
This command will print out more information about how old your money is.
Download the ynab-age-of-money binary, following the instructions here:
https://go.equinox.io/github.com/kevinburke/ynab-go/ynab-age-of-money
Set YNAB_TOKEN to your API token in your environment. You can find your token
on the Settings page: https://app.youneedabudget.com/settings
Finally, run the binary:
ynab-age-of-money --budget='Personal Budget'
The output will look something like this:

The number in the far left hand column is the age of money, in days, for each transaction. The thresholds show the upcoming age of money when you spend it.
The flags are:
-budget-name string
Name of the budget to compute AOM for
-debug
Enable debug
-file string
Filename to read txns from
You will need to specify --budget-name if you have more than one budget.
--debug provides more information about all of the buckets you have as well as
all of the accounts you have. --file is useful if you are making a lot of
requests - save the JSON transaction data to a file and load it from there.
YNAB uses a weighted average to calculate age of money for a single transaction if it spans multiple buckets. I choose the date of the bucket the last penny was taken out of, so the numbers may be slightly lower here than in your dashboard.
YNAB averages the last ten transactions to get the Age of Money. I print accurate results for each transaction in your account.
The ynab-largest-inputs-outputs command finds the largest inputs and outputs
to your Net Worth, optionally filtered by a month argument. Any income or
outflows that come into either your budget accounts or your tracking accounts
will appear here. One exception is that credit card spending is accounted at the
time of payment, not at the time the money is spent.
Pass the --month flag to filter by a given month. The flag accepts arguments in the form of 'Jan 2006', e.g. --month='Aug 2019'.
I spot checked the results against my account, and they appeared to be accurate. They may not be correct for your account. This software is provided "as is" and I am not liable for any claim or damages arising from how you use this library.
