This increases composability and avoids some ugly case handling. We
re-export runExceptT in Hledger.Read.
The final return types of the following functions has been changed from
IO (Either String a) to ExceptT String IO a. If this causes a problem,
you can get the old behaviour by calling runExceptT on the output:
readJournal, readJournalFiles, readJournalFile
Or, you can use the easy functions readJournal', readJournalFiles', and
readJournalFile', which assume default options and return in the IO
monad.
This results in big speedups in cases when we have many transaction prices, like in examples/10000x1000x10.journal. This can be disabled with the show_costs_ option in ReportOpts.
Introduce --infer-equity option which will generate conversion postings.
--cost will override --infer-equity.
This means there will no longer be unbalanced transactions, but will be
offsetting conversion postings to balance things out. For example.
2000-01-01
a 1 AAA @@ 2 BBB
b -2 BBB
When converting to cost, this is treated the same as before.
When used with --infer-equity, this is now treated as:
2000-01-01
a 1 AAA
equity:conversion:AAA-BBB:AAA -1 AAA
equity:conversion:AAA-BBB:BBB 2 BBB
b -2 BBB
There is a new account type, Conversion/V, which is a subtype of Equity/E.
The first account declared with this type, if any, is used as the base account
for inferred equity postings in conversion transactions, overriding the default
"equity:conversion".
API changes:
Costing has been changed to ConversionOp with three options:
NoConversionOp, ToCost, and InferEquity.
The first correspond to the previous NoCost and Cost options, while the
third corresponds to the --infer-equity flag. This converts transactions with costs
(one or more transaction prices) to transactions with equity:conversion postings.
It is in ConversionOp because converting to cost with -B/--cost and inferring conversion
equity postings with --infer-equity are mutually exclusive.
Correspondingly, the cost_ record of ReportOpts has been changed to
conversionop_.
This also removes show_costs_ option in ReportOpts, as its functionality
has been replaced by the richer cost_ option.
We no longer rely on git tags and git describe output, since it's
hard to reliably select the correct tag eg for minor releases.
We might use them again in future for dev builds, but it requires
adding git describe --match support to githash. For now,
* Program name, OS and architecture are always shown.
* The package version is always shown.
* If there is git info at build time, the latest commit hash and commit date are shown.
Example outputs:
A homebrew binary, not built in git repo: hledger-ui 1.24, mac-aarch64
A CI release build, built in git repo: hledger 1.24.1-g455b35293-20211210, mac-x86_64
API changes:
* new type synonyms ProgramName, PackageVersion, VersionString
* versionStringForProgname -> versionString with extra argument
* versionStringFor -> versionStringWith with extra argument
Similar to (and motivating) balance --declared, the goal is to
show a useful list of accounts when all you have is some starter
files with account declarations.
(SourcePos, SourcePos).
This has been marked for possible removal for a while. We are keeping
strictly more information. Possible edge cases arise with Timeclock and
CsvReader, but I think these are covered.
The particular motivation for getting rid of this is that
GenericSourcePos is creating some awkward import considerations for
little gain. Removing this enables some flattening of the module
dependency tree.
to Hledger.Cli.
Since the git hash changes whenever any file in the repository changes,
this means Hledger.Cli.Version needs to be recompiled all the time.
Since it is at the bottom of the module hierarchy, this means that the
whole hledger package needs to be recompiled. We instead move the
TemplateHaskell splice to one of the top modules, so much less needs to
be recompiled.
Note: Ghc seems to be able to get out of most of the recompiling a lot
of the time (due to caching?), but this makes things more reliable.
