07:19:27 *** WebManOfFesto has joined #gnucash
07:20:15 <WebManOfFesto> My "How to import transactions from a CSV file" problem was solved by using "How to import transactions from a QIF file".
07:45:59 *** oozer has joined #gnucash
07:48:12 <chris> just a question on recent versions - I assume that upon loading datafile, all posted-dates and reconciled-dates are reset to 11am? and closing-transactions are reset to end-of-day times?
07:50:41 <gjanssens> WebManOfFesto: good
07:51:06 <WebManOfFesto> gjanssens Thanks
07:51:06 <gjanssens> chris: I don't know if we actively convert them on opening a file.
07:51:24 <gjanssens> Perhaps jralls does
07:51:41 <chris> ok... i feel closing-txns handling are a neglected corner
07:51:52 <chris> but ultimately crucial for any decent inc/exp report
07:59:39 <warlord> .
08:07:38 *** zipppy has quit IRC
08:08:55 <chris> a small remark about line/bar charts -- we'd expect linecharts to take linear x/y coords and barcharts to be category/value amounts. indeed html-linechart does request these types to jqplot. however they're both used pretty much as a category/value chart. so i'm thinking eventually net-chart and category-barchart(which btw does both line/bar) should set xaxis to category which makes nicer charts
08:09:46 *** Mechtilde has joined #gnucash
08:11:07 *** zipppy has joined #gnucash
08:13:21 *** Mechtilde has quit IRC
08:14:02 <chris> https://imgur.com/n53IA74
08:14:27 <chris> notice gridlines are aligned to linechart 'categories' xaxis
08:14:32 *** zipppy has quit IRC
08:15:33 <chris> but this can wait till chartjs upgrade is complete
08:17:32 *** zipppy has joined #gnucash
08:25:14 <chris> this would also remove the need for the date-iso-stringlist hack to get good charts
08:28:57 <chris> and later for jralls when back - for me #316 is not crashing when launching from builddir. my script launches from build/install/bin
08:36:15 <gjanssens> chris: build/install suggests you did run make install or ninja-build install
08:36:45 <gjanssens> And that your install prefix is build/install
08:36:48 <gjanssens> Is that so ?
08:37:36 <chris> yes -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/chris/sources/build/install
08:38:25 *** WebManOfFesto has left #gnucash
08:38:34 <gjanssens> As for the x-axis stuff in jqplot, ISTR there were issues with certain chart-type/x-axis-type combination
08:39:05 <gjanssens> If it works well in chartjs, I agree there's no need to make exceptions there
08:39:48 <gjanssens> So jralls normally runs his dev gnucash directly from the build dir. Translated to your setup from build/bin instead of build/install/bin
08:40:04 <gjanssens> He typically skips the install step altogether while developing
08:40:14 <chris> ah ^ well for me it runs but doesn't load js at all
08:40:25 <gjanssens> Our build system was designed to support that
08:40:52 *** Mechtilde has joined #gnucash
08:41:04 <gjanssens> If it doesn't there's a bug somewhere
08:41:11 <chris> ok i'll try to make it work later
08:41:13 <gjanssens> (which is very possible)
08:41:24 <chris> gtg work
08:41:29 <gjanssens> Ok see you later

13:32:06 <jralls> chris, gjanssens, just tried again with PR319 and running uninstalled, this time with GNC_UNINSTALLED=1 GNC_BUILDDIR=`pwd`. That doesn't crash but it also doesn't display the chart, just the table.

13:36:59 <gjanssens> jralls: that's already an improvement...
13:37:29 <gjanssens> I wonder why these variables weren't set up by the build system ?
13:38:19 <jralls> In my shell? That would be a problem if I want to test after installing.
13:38:39 <gjanssens> No not in your shell, but for the running gnucash environment
13:38:50 <gjanssens> But I'm probably mixing things
13:39:32 <gjanssens> I remember we had to set those at some point for the backend code to find the loadable backend modules
13:39:44 <gjanssens> But then you fixed this for cmake
13:40:03 <gjanssens> The backend modules are now always in the same location relative to the binary
13:40:15 <gjanssens> I would expect the same to be true for the scm files.
13:40:16 <jralls> It does set them for running tests. But after the build is finished then it's back to my shell.
13:40:35 <gjanssens> Indeed.
13:41:28 <gjanssens> But apparently chris' PR is expecting something in a location it's not when uninstalled.
13:42:04 <gjanssens> Oh, and what what the report crash error again ? Something about a stack overflow in the vm ?
13:44:07 <gjanssens> I'm surprised that's affected by these environment variables.
13:45:54 <jralls> Yes. Oh, this is interesting: I just tried to re-crash it because the error had scrolled off. It didn't. The difference is that today I was just building chris's PR, yesterday is was chris's plus Carsten Rinke's. Hmm. That's worth a little more digging.
13:46:36 <gjanssens> I remember we had stack-overflow errors when we just started using guile 2
13:46:58 <gjanssens> It's typically due to recursing too deep or on a too long list
13:47:48 <gjanssens> Guile usually provides better methods for that. (It *think* back then it was an issue with string-concat or something similar)
13:49:25 <jralls> Which is why chris asked yesterday if I was testing against a big dataset, and suspected his xaccAccountGetBalance change. It wasn't either of them.

14:01:25 <greensho_> Mac OS X 10.13.6 (17G65)
14:01:26 <greensho_> GNUCash Version: 3.2

14:01:27 <greensho_> Finance::Quote: 1.47

14:58:02 <CaptainPi> i have a databank from gnucash 2.6 and i would like to move to gnucash 3.1. how could i transform the old databank to the new format?
14:59:04 <jralls> CaptainPi: Just open it in GnuCash 3. Note that the latest version is 3.2 and we'll be releasing 3.3 in just over a week.

15:03:41 <greenshoe> jralls: Thanks, that worked. FWIW, exporting the account hierarchy with the native xml format worked just fine for my application which was to import into iQIF in order to track expenses daily on my mobile when I am out and about.
15:04:20 <jralls> greenshoe: OK. BTW, your IRC client is dropping in-and-out.
15:04:57 <greenshoe> Thanks, I was not aware. I need to set up a client on an always on box so I can reconnect at will. apparently laptop goes to sleep networkwise adn then reconnects.
15:05:01 <greenshoe> I'll disconnect for now then.

21:10:40 <chris> jralls I'm afraid my maint-net-charts and master-chartjs branches have had heavy changes in past 48h so i won't be able to isolate a crasher. so unless you've frozen my crashing branch from yesterday, it's now lost :-/
21:11:07 <chris> from my understanding of html-chart maybe it's looking for js in the wrong place
21:13:18 *** chris has quit IRC
21:18:25 *** chris has joined #gnucash
21:23:05 <chris> in any case charts are not loading because gnc-path-find-localized-file can't find them
