Hi Kalpesh I get it now. You can think of storing the updated quote.pm and your unit in a local folder and then writing a script to copy and paste these files after you install the FQ. it may not be fully auto, but can avoid opening the quote.pm

I am trying to avoid altering the install of F::Q in anyway if it was possible by wiring up in GNC that can pass the info to F::Q thus doing away with needing to update C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\Finance\Quote folder and quote.pm module.

The prices are not directly public and so it is a localized solution. 1. place your <filename>.pm in the C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\Finance\Quote folder 2. update the C:\Strawberry\perl\site\lib\Finance\Quote\quote.pm to include your module name under @Modules 3. After restart you should be able to see your module in the "unknown" source quote drop down Not sure if this was your question. for me it works like a charm, only challenge is that whenever i re install or update finance quote, i have to redo this step one time Saludos Cordiales Murugan ________________________________ From: gnucash-user <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Kalpesh Patel <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2023 1:21 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [GNC] loading custom F::Q module from GNC Is there a simpler way, by way of possibly configuration specification, from GNC to utilize a privately developed F::Q module for pricing without modifying any of the official underlying release code for F::Q? >From reading F::Q documentation, it mentions that I can pass the privately developed module to the Finance::Quote->new() call but that assumes that I am instantiating in a script or something similar and have control over the declaration which I do not for GNC. I am hoping for something simple like put a single Perl .pm module file into a directory, add/append some option setting in a GNC configuration file or command line which makes it available under ‘type of quote source’ à ‘Unknown’ in the ‘Edit Security’ window to select, and then get called when ‘Get Quotes’ is pressed from ‘Price Database’. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
