[GNC] [GNC-dev] Finance Quote 1.50 release candidate 1 is available

[Rainer Dorsch]

Hi John,

it seems currency retrieval does not work with finance-quote 1.50rc1 in 
gnucash. currency-lookup.pl works though. I understand it is using 
alphavantage.

Can you have a quick look at https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/
issues/173 ?

Is that because of  lack of support for the alphavantage key? For stocks this 
seem to work though

rd at h370:/usr/share/doc/libfinance-quote-perl/examples$  echo '(alphavantage 
"MSFT")' | gnc-fq-helper
(("MSFT" (symbol . "MSFT") (gnc:time-no-zone . "2021-03-08 12:00:00") (last . 
#e227.3900) (currency . "USD")))
rd at h370:/usr/share/doc/libfinance-quote-perl/examples$ gnc-fq-dump alphavantage 
MSFT                
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
    symbol: MSFT                 <=== required
      date: 03/08/2021           <=== recommended
  currency: USD                  <=== required
      last: 227.3900             <=\       
       nav:                      <=== one of these
     price:                      <=/        
  timezone:                      <=== optional
rd at h370:/usr/share/doc/libfinance-quote-perl/examples$ 

Thanks
Rainer
