Try to provide steps that we can use to replicate the Issue

Given the following intent:

 @intent_handler(IntentBuilder('').require('CreateItemKeyword').require("Food")
                    .require("ShoppingList").optionally("Category"))
    def create_item_on_list(self, message):
        """

        :param message:
        :return:
        """
        category = None
        item_to_add = message.data['Food']
        try:
            category = message.data['Category']
        except KeyError:
            # Category is optional so this is a non-fatal error
            pass
        try:
            self.list_name = message.data['ShoppingList']
            self.list_id = self.determine_list_id(self.list_name)
            if self.list_id is None:
                self.speak("Sorry the %s list does not exist" % self.list_name)
                exit()
            self.grocery_state_file = "groceries_%s.txt" % self.list_id
        except KeyError:
            # If there is a key error, its most likely to be on the shopping list name
            # The shopping list name is required to find the list_id
            # without list_id this error is considered fatal
            exit()

        shopping_list_dict, categories = self.refresh_lists()
        try:
            self.add_to_my_list(full_list=shopping_list_dict, item_name=item_to_add, all_categories=categories,
                                item_category=category)
            self.speak("Adding %s to your list" % item_to_add)
        except:
            # This is a generic catchall which should exit instead of throwing the mycroft error
            self.speak("Sorry, I couldn't add %s to %s list" % (item_to_add, self.list_name))
            exit()

With this regex:

add (?P<Food>.*) (to my) (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list
add (?P<Food>.*) (to the) (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list

Or this:

add (?P<Food>.*) to (the|my) (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list

Or this

add (?P<Food>.*) to my (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list
add (?P<Food>.*) to the (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list

Be as specific as possible about the expected condition, and the deviation from expected condition.

If I trigger this by saying "Hey Mycroft add stuff to my grocery list" the ShoppingList is set to "my grocery list."

If I say "Hey Mycroft add stuff to the grocery list", the regex works properly and ShoppingList is set to "grocery"

Provide log files or other output to help us see the error

The Grocery List exists and works with the word 'the'
console output from a successful add:

 add stuff to the grocery list                                                     
 >> Adding stuff to your list

However, using the keyword "my" causes the same skill to fail

Can you include logs with at the DEBUG level? I'm not seeing the events from the intent parser.

[stratus-ss]

how do I enable debug?

The only thing I found was self.log.debug(). Do I need a bunch of these statements? if so, where would you like these included?

[clusterfudge]

You should be able to configure via a mycroft.conf file like so:
https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/blob/dev/mycroft/configuration/mycroft.conf#L253

[stratus-ss]

These are the logs while testing the "the" keyword after setting Debug as suggested

the_keyword_voice.log
the_keyword_skills.log
the_keyword_enclosure.log
the_keyword_bus.log
the_keyword_audio.log

[stratus-ss]

these are the logs from the two tests
with the trigger "add stuff to my grocery list"
voice.log
skills.log
enclosure.log
bus.log
audio.log

Here are the regex during today's tests

add (?P<Food>.*) (to my) (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list
add (?P<Food>.*) (to the) (?P<ShoppingList>.*) list

[clusterfudge]

Unfortunately, the log lines I was expecting are not present; it appears that almost all DEBUG logs have been removed from mycroft-core, which makes this a bit more difficult to diagnose with tinkering. Also, just to confirm, you restarted each of the processes after changing the configuration? I believe this config change requires a restart.

Adapt emits a couple of events that will be helpful, that show the intermediate state of the parser. Hopefully, they're wired up enough that you can add logging for them somewhere.

You'll want to add an event handler for
tagged_entities to the instance of IntentDeterminationEngine held in the intent service. I'm no longer familiar enough with mycroft-core to point out where that happens, and unfortunately it does not appear that the internal emitter is bound to the message bus (which would've made this a lot easier).

hey @stratus-ss did you have any luck with this? If you're still seeing this issue, please let us know and we'll try to address it prior to 1.0.0. I suspect this is similar to what you reported #102, and I'll have the same sad answer for you.

[clusterfudge]

I'm going to close this out as cannot reproduce, as we're no longer getting any notes from the reporter.
