I followed the link above but it does not work.

Paolo,
KMyMoney has migrated from svn to git some time ago, so the new home
of the code base would be
http://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/office/kmymoney or the
repository directory under that. If you can tell us where you found
that link, someone can correct it.
Also, KMyMoney is a KDE application, not a web application. Plugins
are to add functionality to the main application. Writing a web
application to add data to a KMyMoney file is certainly possible, but
it would not be a KMyMoney plugin - it would be a completely separate
application (and not an easy thing to do.)
Just off the top of my head, it might be more reasonable to write a
web application to accept the data necessary for new transactions,
but store it as an OFX file, which can then be imported into
KMyMoney. However, it also depends on what your actual goal is.
Jack
I've just remembered Web Connect, but can't now remember how it works,
and I couldn't see it in the handbook.
To Paolo
If you already have KMyMoney, then it contains the handbook, with the
section on writing plugins, although it's short on detail.
If I remember correctly (I've never used it) WebConnect is the ability
to go to your bank or other institution's web site, ask it to download a
data file, and then have KMyMoney import that data without the extra
step of saving it to disk first. (Yes, it actually does get saved, but
you don't have to specify where and then point the KMM import process to
that file, so it's a bit more efficient.)
Yes, that's how it works.
The only mention of writing plugins I can find is at the end of the
section on import and export, and really just says to use the OFX plugin
as an example for writing a plugin to import some other format data. I
suppose it would be possible to write a web application which is
interfaced to a plugin for a KMyMoney instance launched by the web app.
Jack
Yes, I did a search and it produced the page in the handbook, so it is
there.
I set up a file association for *.ofx and clicked to download. It
offered kmymoney, and the file was imported correctly. So, it is efficient.
Rather than needing to produce a fairly complicated ofx file, a simpler
file could be produced and imported, perhaps.
Doesn't webconnect support all import formats incl. QIF and CSV? OK, it might
have to be setup correctly.
I think that's a yes, but... I think it triggers the File Open routine,
rather than the plugins.. It comes up with the 'old binary format...'
message. Shame that, but no doubt someone could adapt it?
