fund-my-watcard

This tool helps you add funds to your WatCard easily. I wrote this tool because I am too lazy to do it by hand everytime.

Installation

pip3 install --upgrade fund-my-watcard

Usage

teachertian@v1040-wn-rt-c-83-249 ~/PycharmProjects/fundmywatcard: watcard
usage: watcard [-h] [-c | -f FUND | -v | -e | -d | -r | -va | -t]

Fund my WatCard: A tool that add funds to your WatCard easily.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c, --config          generate the config file
  -f FUND, --fund FUND  the amount to add into the WatCard
  -v, --version         show the version of fund-my-watcard
  -e, --encrypt         encrypt the config file with user defined password
  -d, --decrypt         decrypt the config file so you can edit it
  -r, --reset           reset the config file
  -va, --valid          check the config files for errors
  -t, --transactions    review the previous transactions

One important step before funding is to fill the config file .watcard_config, which is generated and stored under the user directory. Type watcard --config to initialize and edit the config file.

An example of .watcard_config:

{
  "userName": "WatIAM username",
  "password": "WatIAM password",
  "ordName": "Name on the credit card",
  "phoneNumber": "Phone number",
  "address1": "Home address 1",
  "address2": "Home address 2 (Blank if no address2)",
  "ordPostalCode": "Postal code",
  "ordCity": "City",
  "ordCountry": "Country (Canada by default)",
  "ordProvince": "Province (Ontario by default)",
  "ordEmailAddress": "Email address",
  "paymentMethod": "Payment method ('CC' for 'Credit Card')",
  "trnCardOwner": "Card owner",
  "trnCardType": "Card type ('VI' for 'Visa', 'MC' for 'Master Card', see more card types below)",
  "trnCardNumber": "Card number",
  "trnExpMonth": "Expiry month",
  "trnExpYear": "Expiry year",
  "trnCardCvd": "Card CVD (3 digit number on the back of the card)",
  "encrypted": "False"
}

An example of filled .watcard_config:

{
  "userName": "s123zhang",
  "password": "1234567",
  "ordName": "San Zhang",
  "phoneNumber": "123 456 7890",
  "address1": "123 Queen Street West",
  "address2": "",
  "ordPostalCode": "A1B2C3",
  "ordCity": "Waterloo",
  "ordCountry": "Canada",
  "ordProvince": "Ontario",
  "ordEmailAddress": "[email protected]",
  "paymentMethod": "CC",
  "trnCardOwner": "San Zhang",
  "trnCardType": "MC",
  "trnCardNumber": "1234567890123456",
  "trnExpMonth": "01",
  "trnExpYear": "25",
  "trnCardCvd": "123",
  "encrypted": "False"
}

Payment Method should be CC (Credit Card). Do not support Interac Online.

Card Type can be MC (Mastercard), VI (Visa), PV (VISA Debit), MD (Debit Mastercard) or AM (AMEX).

After filling the config file, try watcard --fund 10 to add 10 dollars to your account. At the next time, no need to edit config file (unless you want to change some information), just use watcard --fund to fund your watcard easily, cheers!

Troubleshooting

If you run into errors while using watcard --fund, it might be caused by your config file.

Please use watcard --valid to check for errors in your config file.

If that doesn't work, just reset your config file with watcard --reset and fill in your information again.

Docker Image

We also maintain a docker image for fund-my-watcard:

https://hub.docker.com/r/faushine/fund-my-watcard

Pull image from docker-hub:

 docker pull faushine/fund-my-watcard:0.5.1

Create and edit .watcard_config (There is a template of .watcard_config in the folder docker, you may want to edit it directly).

Run container and mount configuration to the container:

docker run -it  -v /absolute/path/of/.watcard_config:/root/.watcard_config faushine/fund-my-watcard:0.3.1
