Budget goals specified with periodic transactions (as with
hledger-budget) can now be displayed in balance report (but not in bs/is/cf).
--budget shows the target amount and percentage alongside the actual
amount, per account and period.
Unbudgeted accounts will be hidden, unless --show-unbudgeted is used.
Budgeted accounts are displayed folded (depth-clipped) at a depth
matching the budget specification. Unbudgeted accounts, if shown, are
displayed at their usual depth (in full detail, or according to --depth).
Ledger-style automated postings, previously supported only by
hledger-budget, have landed as a first-class feature. The --auto
flag activates them, so that any postings they generate are
included in reports.

Add "fixed" to the regex used to exclude asset accounts from cashflow
reports. Assumes accounts are set up something like:
assets:fixed assets:equipment
assets:fixed assets:vehicles
assets:fixed assets:buildings
That's the current most robust way. Otherwise, it can fail due to
stack's progress output as it reinstalls hledger libs, and that
reinstallation also forces all the addons to be relinked.
See the issue and linked mail list discussion. Ambiguity between the
uncleared state, and the "not cleared" --uncleared flag causes confusion
and friction. At this point it seems best to break with Ledger and
past hledger, pick a new name and drop --uncleared to put an end to it.
Related to #563, when rendering a transaction, we reserve two more chars
of width so that amounts remain aligned when there are posting flags.
Affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
This affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
A pending flag on postings is now displayed, just like a cleared flag.
Also there will now be a space between flag and account name.
And it's slightly better at aligning amounts, due to now considering
virtual posting parentheses/brackets or something.
When generating a new posting as a multiple of an existing posting,
support conversion to a different commodity. For example, postings in
hours can be used to generate postings in USD.
Automatic transactions generated from rewrite rules use the commodity,
amount style, and transaction price if the rewrite defines a commodity.
* Add an option to use unicode in balance tables
fixes#522
* Add a test for unicode tables
* Document --pretty-tables
* Support --pretty-tables in BalanceView
* cli: fix bug in pivot for postings without tag
Without this fix for postings without tag query checked effective
account which is always empty text ("").
* rewrite: inherit dates, change application order
For budgeting it is important to inherit actual date of posting if it
differs from date of transaction. These dates will be added
as a separate line of comment.
More natural order of rewrites is when result of first defined one is
available for all next rewrites.
* rewrite: factor out Hledger.Data.AutoTransaction
* rewrite: add diff output
With this option you can modify your original files without loosing
inter-transaction comments etc. I.e. you can run:
hledger-rewrite --diff Agency \
--add-posting 'Expenses:Taxes *0.17' \
| patch
As result multiple files should be updated.
Also it is nice to review your changes using colordiff instead of
patch.
* lib: track source lines range for journal
* doc: auto entries and diff output for rewrite
Eg. if you --pivot code, postings from transactions with no code value
were formerly displayed with the unpivoted account name, so you'd see
a mixture of account names and codes. Now we always pivot the account name,
to blank if nothing else. This probably makes reports pretty ugly, it's just another
step towards making --pivot's behaviour clearer.
* rewrite: rewrite every posting
Also start using ModifierTransaction
* rewrite: use journal parser for postings
* rewrite: use ModifierTransactions from Journal
See simonmichael/hledger#99
* Add implicit tags code/desc/payee for --pivot
Additionally allow using of transaction inherited tags.
* Use original posting in query by account name
To be able to query on individual postings and by account name it is
useful to have access to original account name (before pivot).
Especially this is useful when all postings within transaction gets
the same pivot name due.
As a side effect we'll match by alias.
Note: to query on amt it usually expected to see matches with inferred
amounts.
* Remember original postings during infer and pivot
This includes such functions like:
- inferFromAssignment
- inferBalancingAmount
- inferBalancingPrices
- pivotPosting
* Use original postings for hledger print
- Introduce "--explicit" option for "print" command which brings back
old behavior when every inferred number being printed.
- Make "print" by default print original postings without inferred
amounts. But use effective account name to have effect from aliases.
- Instruct shell tests with an new expected output or to use
--explicit option when inferred amounts are checked.
Resolvessimonmichael/hledger#442
* Changed behavior of `readJournalFiles` to be identical to `readJournalFile` for singleton lists
* Balance Assertions have to be simple Amounts
* Add 'isAssignment' and 'assignmentPostings' to Hledger.Data.Posting and Transaction

* Fixed test cases.
* Implemented balance assignment ("resetting a balance")
* Add assertions to show function
* updated the comments
* numbering is not needed in journalCheckBalanceAssertions
* remove prices before balance checks

* Replace Parsec with Megaparsec (see #289)
This builds upon PR #289 by @rasendubi
* Revert renaming of parseWithState to parseWithCtx
* Fix doctests
* Update for Megaparsec 5
* Specialize parser to improve performance

This is necessary to get the correct backtracking behavior, i.e. discard
state changes if the parsing fails.
The journal/timeclock/timedot parsers, instead of constructing (opaque)
journal update functions which are later applied to build the journal,
now construct the journal directly (by modifying the parser state). This
is easier to understand and debug. It also removes any possibility of
the journal updates being a space leak. (They weren't, in fact memory
usage is now slightly higher, but that will be addressed in other ways.)
Also:
Journal data and journal parse info have been merged into one type (for
now), and field names are more consistent.
The ParsedJournal type alias has been added to distinguish being-parsed
and finalised journals.
Journal is now a monoid.
stats: fixed an issue with ordering of include files
journal: fixed an issue with ordering of included same-date transactions
timeclock: sessions can no longer span file boundaries (unclocked-out
sessions will be auto-closed at the end of the file).
expandPath now throws a proper IO error (and requires the IO monad).
When multiple files are specified with multiple -f options, we now
parse each one individually, rather than just concatenating them, so
they can have different formats.
Directives (like default year or account aliases) no longer carry over
from one file to the next. Limitation or feature ?
The commodity directive's format subdirective can now be used to
override the inferred style for a commodity, eg to increase or decrease
the precision. This doesn't fix the root cause of #295 but is at least a
good workaround.
Bracketed posting dates were fragile; they worked only if you wrote full
10-character dates. Also some semantics were a bit unclear. Now they
should be robust, and have been documented more clearly. This is a
legacy undocumented Ledger syntax, but it improves compatibility and
might be preferable to the more verbose "date:" tags if you write
posting dates often (as I do).
Internally, bracketed posting dates are no longer considered to be tags.
Journal comment, tag, and posting date parsers have been reworked, all
with doctests. Also the journal parser types generally have been
tightened up and clarified, making it much easier to know how to combine
and run them. There's now
-- | A parser of strings with generic user state, monad and return type.
type StringParser u m a = ParsecT String u m a
-- | A string parser with journal-parsing state.
type JournalParser m a = StringParser JournalContext m a
-- | A journal parser that runs in IO and can throw an error mid-parse.
type ErroringJournalParser a = JournalParser (ExceptT String IO) a
and corresponding convenience functions (and short aliases) for running them.
We now parse account directives, like Ledger's. We don't do anything
with them yet. The default parent account feature must now be spelled
"apply account"/"end apply account".
Since commit 7aab544, "-f -" before the command broke command
detection, causing spurious "no such option" errors (and breaking
about 70 functional tests which neither I nor travis noticed).
Since market price amounts didn't contribute to the canonical commodity
styles, they were being reset to the null style. And this propagated to
the reported amounts when -V was in effect, causing much confusion.
Now, market prices contribute to canonicalisation and the expected
styles are preserved even with -V.
cf https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/131#issuecomment-133545140
print now always right-aligns the amounts in an entry, even when they
are wider than 12 characters.
If there is a price, it's considered part of the amount for
right-alignment. Maybe it would be nicer to put amounts and prices in
separate columns ? That will get a little complicated, needs more
discussion/design.
Also some cleanup of postingAsLines.
The print command wasn't lining up amounts with wide chars in account
names, fixed it properly this time. Transaction and Posting's Show instances
should also be wide-char-aware now.
Wide characters, eg chinese/japanese/korean characters, are typically
rendered wider than latin characters. In some applications (eg gnome
terminal or osx terminal) and fonts (eg monaco) they are exactly double
width. This is a start at making hledger aware of this. A register
report containing wide characters (in descriptions, account names, or
commodity symbols) should now align its columns correctly, when viewed
with a suitable font and application.
The balance command's --format option (in single-column mode) can now
adjust the rendering of multi-line strings, such as amounts with multiple
commodities. To control this, begin the format string with one of:
%_ - renders on multiple lines, bottom-aligned (the default)
%^ - renders on multiple lines, top-aligned
%, - render on one line, comma-separated
Also the final total (and the line above it) now adapt themselves to a
custom format.
Using "hledgerdev" was a hack to help ensure that tests used a fresh
developer build by default. Now they specify "hledger" again, which fits
better with stack. It's up to the tester to make sure the desired
executable is first in PATH or specified with -w. (Note a couple of
tests currently don't obey -w and will always run "hledger", see addons.test).
When a transaction posts to two commodities without specifying the
conversion price, we generate a price which makes it balance
(cf http://hledger.org/manual.html#prices).
Until now, these generated prices were always shown with full precision
(all available decimal digits) so that a manual calculation with the
displayed numbers would agree.
If there's just one posting in the commodity being priced, we can use an
exact total price and the precision is no problem.
But if there are multiple postings in the commodity being priced, we
must show the averaged unit price. This can be an irrational number,
which with our current Decimal-based implementation would display an
excessive 255 decimal digits. So in this case we now set the price's
display precision to the sum of the (max) display precisions of the
commodities involved. An example:
hledgerdev -f- print
<<<
1/1
c C 10.00
c C 11.00
d D -320.00
>>>
2015/01/01
c C 10.00 @ D 15.2381
c C 11.00 @ D 15.2381
d D -320.00
>>>=0
There might still be cases where this will show more price decimal
places than necessary. For now, YAGNI.
The regex account aliases added in 0.24 trip up people switching between
hledger and Ledger. (Also they are currently slow).
This change makes the old non-regex aliases the default; they are
unsurprising, useful, and pretty close in functionality to Ledger's.
The new regex aliases are also available; they must be enclosed in
forward slashes. Ledger effectively ignores these, which is ok.
Also clarify docs, refactor, and use the same parser for alias
directives and alias options
alias match patterns (the part left of the =) are now case-insensitive
regular expressions matching anywhere in the account name. The
replacement string (the part right of the =) can replace multiple
matches within the account name. The replacement string does not yet
support any of the usual syntax like backreferences.
Previously, a depth:0 query produced an empty report (since there are no
level zero accounts). Now, it aggregates all data into one summary item
with account name "...".
This makes it easier to see the kind of data Gwern was looking for from
register-csv (net worth over time). Eg this shows one line per month
summarising the total of assets and liabilities:
hledger register-csv -- -MHE ^assets ^liabilities depth:0
Single and multi-column balance reports behave similarly.
In periodic multicolumn balance reports, column headings now show a more
compact description of common periods (years, half-years, quarters,
months, weeks) for better readability and screen space efficiency.
This is a workaround for a cmdargs limitation. Having "--debug 2"
or "--width 100" produce no output (because the number is parsed
as a separate argument) is too annoying.
