This commit introduces the commandline argument -%/--percent to show
percentages of the column's total instead of the absolute amounts for
each account in reports. The signs of the values are preserved.
This option is especially useful for the balance and incomestatement
commands.
If there are multiple commodities involved in a report hledger bails
with an error message. This can be avoided by using --cost. Also note
that if one uses -% with the balance command the chances are high that
all numbers are 0. This is due to the fact that by default balance sums
up to zero. If one wants to use -% in a meaningful way with balance one
has to add a query.
In order to keep the implementation as simple as possible --tree has no
influence over how the percentages are calculated, i.e., the percentages
always represent the fraction of the columns total. If one wants to know
the percentages relative to a parent account, one has to use a query to
narrow down the accounts.
Invalid transactions generated from CSV will now be rejected.
I updated some csv tests to avoid this, except for 21, which
probably needs more cleanup.
-V (and -X) now respects a report end date set with -e/-p/date: when
choosing the valuation date, similar to hledger 1.14 and Ledger.
This means that -V/-X aren't exactly like either --value=end or
--value=now. The "Effect of --value on reports" doc has been extended
accordingly, and much of it has been reworded and made more accurate.
Compound balance reports showing ending balances (eg balancesheet),
now show the ending date (single column) or range of ending
dates (multi column) in their title. ,, (double comma) is used
rather than - (hyphen) to suggest a sequence of discrete dates
rather than a continuous span.
Transaction prices were being collapsed/misreported after close/open;
this is fixed. Now each separately-priced amount gets its own posting,
and only the last of these (for each commodity) gets a balance
assertion. Also the equity posting's amount is now always shown
explicitly, which in multicommodity situations means that multiple
equity postings are shown. The upshot is that a balance -B report
will be unchanged after closing & opening transactions.
