GnuCash database seems to have changed, needs slight edit to gcinvoice.py #5
Description
First off: I'm not exactly well-versed in Python or Gnucash databases, just a user with a very basic understanding of programming.
After a recent Gnucash update, gcinvoice.py started giving the following error, one per Gnucash database entry:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "gcinvoice.py", line 319, in parse ns('entry:entered/ts:date'))) File "gcinvoice.py", line 751, in _readdatetime "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/_strptime.py", line 332, in _strptime (data_string, format)) ValueError: time data '2016-10-15' does not match format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S' WARNING:gcinvoice:Problem parsing GncEntry [<ns0:GncEntry xmlns:ns0="http://www.gnucash.org/XML/gnc" xmlns:ns1="http://www.gnucash.org/XML/entry" xmlns:ns2="http://www.gnucash.org/XML/ts" version="2.0.0"> <ns1:guid type="guid">f9293a1ac3d24dbb848a2dcaa0e30d8d</ns1:guid> <ns1:date> <ns2:date>2018-03-30 10:00:00</ns2:date> </ns1:date> <ns1:entered> <ns2:date>2018-04-01 12:53:28</ns2:date> </ns1:entered> <ns1:description>Test entry</ns1:description> <ns1:qty>1000000/1000000</ns1:qty> <ns1:i-acct type="guid">ff7664ebca81a12de837157bb14d691b</ns1:i-acct> <ns1:i-price>100000000/1000000</ns1:i-price> <ns1:invoice type="guid">73fd48af7e3044f8bed13b19c1654b1f</ns1:invoice> <ns1:i-disc-type>PERCENT</ns1:i-disc-type> <ns1:i-disc-how>PRETAX</ns1:i-disc-how> <ns1:i-taxable>1</ns1:i-taxable> <ns1:i-taxincluded>1</ns1:i-taxincluded> <ns1:i-taxtable type="guid">75b9a59cf2d3edf16458febf919a50f1</ns1:i-taxtable> </ns0:GncEntry> ]
Editing gcinvoice.py and changing line 751 from
"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
to
"%Y-%m-%d")
Resolved this error. I freely admit I found this out through trial-and-error. I imagine this would be nice to add to the main branch.
Thanks for the work on gcinvoice, it's been a great tool so far.
