This directory contains XSLT stylesheets which may be useful for
|
||
|
developers and contributors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Processing data with these stylesheets requires an XSLT transformer,
|
||
|
such as xsltproc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
gnc2xea.xsl
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Converts a regular GnuCash file into an account hierarchy, which other
|
||
|
files may then use as a template. Requires an uncompressed GnuCash
|
||
|
file as input; if your file is compressed then simply pipe it through
|
||
|
"gunzip" before passing it to your XSLT transformer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This stylesheet takes three parameters:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "title" - a short and descriptive title for your account hierarchy
|
||
|
that shows up in the Categories list in the New Account Hierarchy
|
||
|
Setup assistant.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "short-description" - a brief description for your account
|
||
|
hierarchy. Usually five words or less.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "long-description" - a long description potentially containing
|
||
|
background information on how the account hierarchy should be used,
|
||
|
who would most likely use it, etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Failure to set either of these will result in the respective field
|
||
|
being empty in the account hierarchy. The stylesheet generates a
|
||
|
warning message if that is the case, and you can subsequently edit the
|
||
|
title and descriptions in the resulting XML file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Invocation example (assuming you are using xsltproc on a compressed
|
||
|
GnuCash file):
|
||
|
|
||
|
gunzip -c <your gnucash file> | \
|
||
|
xsltproc --stringparam title "Spacecraft project" \
|
||
|
--stringparam short-description "Accounts useful for space exploration" \
|
||
|
--stringparam long-description "A set of accounts useful for space exploration. Implements NASA Standards FOO-1234-BAR and FOO-3456-BAZ for Earth Orbit Satellites, Earth Orbit Space Stations, Solar System Manned and Unmanned Spaceflight, and Interstellar Exploration." \
|

gnc2xea.xsl -
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
acctlist.xsl
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
A simple stylesheet that converts a GnuCash file or account hierarchy
|
||
|
template into a comma-separated list of the following format:
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Number","Name","Type"
|
||
|
|
||
|
Where Number is the account number (empty if unset), Name is the
|
||
|
account name, and Type is the account type (ASSET, LIABILITY, INCOME,
|
||
|
EXPENSE etc.).
|
||
|
|
||
|
This stylesheet takes two parameters:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "separator" - the separator character to use, by default a simple
|
||
|
comma (,).
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "quote" - the quote character to use, by default double quotes (").
|
||
|
|
||
|
This may be helpful if you are developing a new account hierarchy, are
|
||
|
unsure of certain account types, and want to solicit someone's
|
||
|
feedback without making them actually fire up GnuCash or load an
|
||
|
account hierarchy.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Invocation example (assuming you are using xsltproc on a compressed
|
||
|
GnuCash file):
|
||
|
|
||
|
gunzip -c <your gnucash file> | \
|
||
|
xsltproc -o /tmp/acctlist.csv acctlist.xsl -
