|
Inside hledger: an architectural tour and how-to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hledger is a suite of CLI, TUI and WUI tools, file formats, and
|
||
|
|
documentation for doing accounting with plain text. It is something
|
||
|
|
that's not yet common: an end-user application written in Haskell,
|
||
|
|
that aims to be easy to install, robust and pleasing to use, on all
|
||
|
|
major platforms, including by non-techies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I have been building and growing hledger and the hledger project for
|
||
|
|
about 15 years. In this talk I will, after a quick intro to plain text
|
||
|
|
accounting and hledger, give a tour of hledger's architecture,
|
||
|
|
codebase, significant evolutions, and some design principles. Then
|
||
|
|
I'll give some practical tips on how to: add your own custom hledger
|
||
|
|
commands; use hledger from your own app; troubleshoot hledger
|
||
|
|
behaviour; investigate bugs; and create effective pull requests. This
|
||
|
|
will hopefully go smoothly, and the Q&A we can go deeper on whatever
|
||
|
|
you like.
