On the accounts screen, the g key now reloads the journal if possible.
With large journals, there may be a noticeable delay before the screen updates.
If there's a problem reading the journal file(s), this has no effect.
Make these modules' names more like the heavily-used types they
define (CliOpts, UIOpts, WebOpts). This is consistent with
RawOptions and ReportOptions, and helps with code navigation.
As the comment says:
In hledger,
- reportopts{depth_} indicates --depth options
- reportopts{query_} is the query arguments as a string
- the report query is based on both of these.
For hledger-ui, currently, we move depth: arguments out of reportopts{query_}
and into reportopts{depth_}, so that depth and other kinds of filter query
can be displayed (and controlled) independently.
- clean up options a bit, enable -V/--value (affects the accounts screen)
- more informative top/bottom borders, including key help
- number keys adjust the depth limit (accounts screen)
- remove obsolete args parameter
--no-elide ensures that a regular, clear account hierarchy is displayed.
The downside is that when you are filtering on account, say
assets🏦checking, it's unclear what to show when the user drills
down on the "assets" and "bank" parent accounts, without causing confusion.
- register screen:
- smarter width-sensitive layout, with multi-commodity amounts on one line
- items are sorted in date order
- jumps to the latest item by default, with consistent scroll position
- more prerendering, might speed up movement/paging slightly
- themes! --theme to select, --help to list (current themes: default, terminal, greenterm)
- border tweaks - dropped side borders, added side padding
The register screen is now like the register view in hledger-web (and
other accounting systems), rather than hledger's register command.
This means:
- it shows transactions affecting a particular current account, rather
than postings matching a pattern.
- Each line represents a whole transaction.
- The account field shows the *other* account being transacted with.
When there is more than one, they are all listed, abbreviated and
marked with "(split)".
- The amount field shows the effect of the transaction on the current
account; positive for an inflow to this account, negative for an
outflow.
- The balance field should usually show the current account's historic
balance as of the transaction date, even when you change the report
start date. (Not working yet - currently it always shows the running
total).
- Transactions are listed most recent first, currently.
