Since it sounds like alphavantage is going to be slower than yahoo and I
have quite a few securities that I don't need to get quotes for anymore
I turned off 'get online quotes' for everything with a script edit of
the xml file. Then I can update the relatively few securities I need
with quote source 'alphavantage'.
!!! Warning unapproved and possibly dangerous (but it worked for me). !!!
The heart of this is the sed command. This was my workflow from a
unix/linux shell:
close gnucash
If your gnucash file is called file.gnucash
cd to the directory where file.gnucash exists
cp file.gnucash file.gnucash.bak # back it up in case things go wrong
mkdir Temp
cd Temp
cp ../file.gnucash file.gnucash.gz # the gnucash file is compressed
gunzip file.gnucash.gz # because gunzip likes the suffix to be there
sed 's;<cmdty:get_quotes/>;;' file.gnucash > temp
mv temp file.gnucash
gzip file.gnucash
mv file.gnucash.gz ../file.gnucash
