Errors with IBKR importer

[kaiwei]

Hi,

I am trying to use the IBKR importer where (I think) I got the config all correctly done, but ran into the below error code when importing ibkr.xml. Any hints on what I may be doing wrong?

Config setup

from beancount_reds_importers.importers import ibkr


    apply_hooks(ibkr.Importer({
    'main_account': 'Assets:Investments:IBKR',
    'account_number': 'XXXXXX',
    'currency': 'USD',
    'cash_account': 'Assets:Investments:IBKR:USD',  # Replace with your cash account in Beancount
    'dividends': 'Income:Dividends:IBKR',    # Replace with your IBKR dividends account
    'capgainsd_lt': 'Income:Capital-Gains:IBKR',    # Replace with your IBKR long term capital gains account
    'capgainsd_st': 'Income:Capital-Gains:IBKR',    # Replace with your IBKR short term capital gains account
    'interest': 'Income:Interest:IBKR',    # Replace with your IBKR interest account
    'fees': 'Expenses:Financial:Fees-Charges',    # Replace with your IBKR fees account
    'rounding_error': 'Equity:Rounding-Errors:Imports',
    'fund_info': {
        'money_market': [],  # No money market funds
        'fund_data': {
            ('HK-3690', 'KYG596691041', 'Meituan Dianping'),
            ('HK-0700', 'KYG875721634', 'Tencent Holdings Ltd'),
            ('HK-9618', 'KYG8208B1014', 'JD.com Inc'),
            ('ABNB', 'US0090661010', 'Airbnb Inc'),
        }
    }

It means that a particular transaction type was not recognized. Right before that error message, there should've been a ERROR: unknown entry type: XXX in your stdout. If you have stdout piped or redirected, you might've missed it. Try running it again without redirecting, and you should see it. See this line for more context.

Once you see it, you'll have to add that transaction type to the appropriate place in investments.py. Feel free to post the type here, along with the (anonymized) transaction from your .xml if you need help.
