For the past two weeks, I haven't been able to fetch stock prices from
the Australian Stock Exchange, AU (ASX) source in GnuCash.
It looks like the ASX has changed something on their Web page that
breaks the Finance::Quote screen scraper for ASX:
Cambyses:bin prl$ ./gnc-fq-dump -v asx TLS
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: TLS (deduced) <=== required
date: ** missing ** <=== recommended
currency: ** missing ** <=== required
last: <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: <=/
timezone: <=== optional
** This stock quote cannot be used by GnuCash!
All fields returned by Finance::Quote for stock TLS
stock field value
----- ----- -----
TLS errormsg: Failed to parse HTML table.<<<<<< Here
TLS last: **missing**
TLS nav: **missing**
TLS price: **missing**
TLS success: 0
Cambyses:bin prl$
Using the yahoo_australia source for the same stock code works:
Cambyses:bin prl$ ./gnc-fq-dump yahoo_australia TLS
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
symbol: TLS.AX <=== required
date: 05/05/2017 <=== recommended
currency: AUD <=== required
last: 4.40 <=\
nav: <=== one of these
price: 4.40 <=/

Cambyses:bin prl$
I guess this is something I need to talk to the Finance::Quote
maintainer about?
Cheers,
Peter
