Short question: Where to find 'gnucash-env' to run python scripts? All python examples suggests following:
# Invoke this script like the following example # $ gnucash-env python account_analysis.py gnucash_file.gnucash \ # 2010 1 monthly 12 \ # debits-show credits-show Assets 'Test Account' Long question: I am unable to successfully run example python scripts. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am including details below - apologies for long email. I have built GnuCash 3.7 on my linux computer with python bindings and am able to use gnucash executable for general operation through UI. Now, I have been trying to use python bindings for some custom analysis in python3. I am trying to follow account_analysis.py example from source code. However, I am unable to locate 'gnucash-env', which is suggested by the example script to invoke it. Even after adding python3.6/site-packages to PYTHONPATH, I am getting following errors. Probably, backend libs are not in path - but I could not find any help regarding it. Example script: https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/3.7/bindings/python/example_scripts/account_analysis.py $ python3 gnucash-3.7/bindings/python/example_scripts/account_analysis.py '~/tmp/my-accounts.gnucash' 2018 1 monthly 12 debits-show credits-show Assets Checking * 12:13:23 WARN <gnc.engine> failed to load gncmod-backend-dbi from relative path * 12:13:23 ERROR <gnc.engine> required library gncmod-backend-dbi not found. * 12:13:23 WARN <gnc.engine> failed to load gncmod-backend-xml from relative path * 12:13:23 ERROR <gnc.engine> required library gncmod-backend-xml not found.
