Hi Beancounters,
I’m attempting to write a Venmo importer based on Red Street’s importer
framework, and I’ve run into an issue with Venmo CSV’s that contain
emoji characters. |bean-identify| results in a decoding error raised
from |cache.py| in v2’s |ingest|. I checked GitHub and it appears there
was a PR in April <https://github.com/beancount/beancount/pull/646> that
may fix this. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been a Beancount 2 release
since March. I attempted |pip uninstall beancount; pip install
'git+https://github.com/beancount/beancount.git@v2'|, as well as |pip
uninstall beancount; pip install
'https://github.com/beancount/beancount/archive/refs/heads/v2.zip'| but
I get the same issue. Am I doing something wrong with the pip
installation of the v2 branch? Or is this still an issue?
It seems that your importer is trying to read the CSV in some charmap
encoding (I suspect cp1252) and that fails. Are you sure you are using
the right encoding? Most likely the CSV is in UTF8 (or some other
Unicode capable encoding that can represent Emojis, AFAIK no charmap
encoding can do that).
This does not seem related to the bug solved by PR #646.
Cheers,
Dan
