Hi, 

Just a quick info about a GnuCash -> Beancount converter I just completed. 
It can be found here:

https://gitlab.com/alensiljak/pta-converters

along with the Ledger exported, which was adapted from piecash by adding a 
few parameters for filtering the data.
During the search through the group about some naming rules, I found 
another converter(s) that may have worked for others but would not handle 
all the cases I ran into during my book export. This script is using 
piecash for reading the GnuCash SQLite database.
Exporting to .bean with the script seems to work better than exporting to 
ledger and then converting to Beancount. I've adapted the script to the 
point that bean-check and fava report no issues whatsoever with my book. 

Now I can (finally) again see a chart with my expenses. I'm a visual type 
and this helps immensely, compared to just numbers in the total count. I 
hope I can now move to checking some scenarios. This was not possible as 
GnuCash -> ledger -> beancount conversion was always resulting in some 
issues reported by fava/beancount. That probably means I need to 
double-check some records but I'm suspecting that everything works because 
Beancount allows multiple commodities in the account and my capital gains 
records from GnuCash are accepted as-is.

Anyways, just wanted to share the info. The script may be in the early 
stages but, as mentioned, it converts my book completely.
