fx-rate broken setup

From shizuma@teksavvy.com:

Fx-rate (Now renamed KmYMoney Currency default never made for me.  Not once, even with the patches applied.  Nor in 4.8.0, nor in 4.8.2.  Have to resort to alphavantage setup mentioned earlier in the yahoo finance thread by myself.
Comment 1 Ralf Habacker 2018-07-23 18:12:44 UTC
The problem is that BTC/CAD price, which returns 

1 Bitcoin =</span><br> 10154 Canadian Dollar

does not have decimals and the current Price regex expects a price with decimals as shown below

1 American Dollar =</span><br> 0.8542 Euro

Sorry to pester you, but in my country, they does have decimals.  See attachment https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=114064

The comma is the thousand seperator and the dot is the decimal separator.

Maybe fx-rate uses different locales.
Comment 5 shizuma 2018-07-24 16:35:05 UTC
Please ignore my comment #4.  I had a look at the source code of fx-rate and you're spot on.  The regex you use used required a decimal point whereas no one was provided for amounts greater than 10,000 CAD.

Please accept my sincere apologies.  I'll have a look at 2.8.2 on my 7-SP1 portable and confirm all is well by tomorrow.

Thanks again for solving this so quickly.

Sad news,

After testing on my 7 SP1 box with you new regex, I still get errors:

I've tested your regexes for view-source:https://fx-rate.net/BTC/CAD at https://regex101.com/ to be certain and they work great, both for dates or prices.

Anything else you want me to check?

Must be something else within the code.
Comment 7 shizuma 2018-07-24 19:11:58 UTC
Think I've fixed (for me) your price date issue:

price: '1[ a-zA-Z]+=</span><br */?> *([\d\.]+)\s'
date:  '>updated \d+:\d+:\d+\([A-Z]+\) (\d{1,2}/\d{2}/\d{4})'

The date is the issue here

What is FLC - it is unknown by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_4217

> Fetching URL https://fx-rate.net/XAG/CAD...
> Price found: '20.547' (20.547)

also date issue

XMR seems not to be supported by this site

> Must be something else within the code.
Some issues seems to be locale specific, as you already suspected - with a de_DE locale the date is returned as

  10:20:44(CEST) 25/07/2018

which matches the date regex. Can you please 

Other issues are unsupported currencies.

>updated \d+:\d+:\d+\([A-Z]+\) (\d{1,2}/\d{2}/\d{4})
comparing to the original, which is
 updated\s\d+:\d+:\d+\(\w+\)\s+(\d{1,2}/\d{2}/\d{4})

\s is equal to ' ', so I only see a real difference in using [A-Z]+ instead of \w+, which limits the allowed characters 

  from http://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/qregexp.html
     \w - Matches a word character (QChar::isLetterOrNumber(), QChar::isMark(), or '_').

and ' ' instead of \s+, which limits the number of spaces to exactly one.

Can you provide the raw html code for the date e.g. the part between 'updated...</span>' from the page source you got ?

part of the code I gor using cURL

FLC is Flashcoin, another cryptocurrency.  I know I have some having no entries.  I don't see any way to remove the accounts once they're created.  Or maybe they're securities or categories.  So I keep there just in case someone one day put data on the online currency converter.

Also could be a price issue.  Sometimes, depending on the browser, source page, developer tools i get '=</span><br>', other times i get '=</span><br />'.  That's why I've changed your price regex.
Comment 11 shizuma 2018-07-25 14:54:07 UTC
according to regex101, '\s' matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])

that's why I've replaced your '\s+' in the date regex.

Anyways it works for me.
Comment 12 shizuma 2018-07-25 15:05:49 UTC
Last problem encountered the '(\d+|\d\.\d+)' you've put in your price regex has the nasty effect of stripping everything after the decimal point, including the decimal point itself on currencies bearing decimals.  That's why I changed this part too.

https://regex101.com/ results differs from what kmymoney 4.8 uses. Running the appended QRegexp test case returns

  622.5
  10722

which was expected.

Qt5 test case

This test case shows that https://regex101.com/ behaves more like QRegularExpression, which is used in the 5.x branch

QRegExp: 622.5
QRegularExpression: 622
QRegExp: 10722
QRegularExpression: 10722

This test case also show that QRegExp and QRegularExpression has subtle differences, which may have an impact on updating any kmymoney 4 based installation to 5.x without further inspection of the used regular expressions.

The price regex handles this also.
I'm going to apply an updated regex (including a fix for an optional thousand separator to be sure) to the source for being in the next release. See bug 396901 for an issue in this area.

shizuma has reopened this ticket after patches were applied, but he hasn't explained why, so I close this ticket. If you still have a problem with this, please reopen it with a reason.
