.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
hledger is a cross\-platform program for tracking money, time, or any
|
|
other commodity, using double\-entry accounting and a simple, editable
|
|
file format.
|
|
hledger is inspired by and largely compatible with ledger(1).
|
|
.PP
|
|
hledger\-api is a simple web API server, intended to support
|
|
client\-side web apps operating on hledger data.
|
|
It comes with a series of simple client\-side app examples, which drive
|
|
its evolution.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Like hledger, it reads data from one or more files in hledger journal,
|
|
timeclock, timedot, or CSV format specified with \f[C]\-f\f[], or
|
|
\f[C]$LEDGER_FILE\f[], or \f[C]$HOME/.hledger.journal\f[] (on windows,
|
|
perhaps \f[C]C:/Users/USER/.hledger.journal\f[]).
|
|
For more about this see hledger(1), hledger_journal(5) etc.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The server listens on IP address 127.0.0.1, accessible only to local
|
|
requests, by default.
|
|
You can change this with \f[C]\-\-host\f[], eg
|
|
\f[C]\-\-host\ 0.0.0.0\f[] to listen on all addresses.
|
|
Note there is no other access control, so you will need to hide
|
|
hledger\-api behind an authenticating proxy if you want to restrict
|
|
access.
|
|
You can change the TCP port (default: 8001) with \f[C]\-p\ PORT\f[].
|
|
.PP
|
|
If invoked as \f[C]hledger\-api\ \-\-swagger\f[], instead of starting a
|
|
server the API docs will be printed in Swagger 2.0 format.
|
|

|
|
.PP
|
|
\f[B]LEDGER_FILE\f[] The journal file path when not specified with
|
|
\f[C]\-f\f[].
|
|
Default: \f[C]~/.hledger.journal\f[] (on windows, perhaps
|
|
\f[C]C:/Users/USER/.hledger.journal\f[]).
|
|
.SH FILES
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reads data from one or more files in hledger journal, timeclock,
|
|
timedot, or CSV format specified with \f[C]\-f\f[], or
|
|
\f[C]$LEDGER_FILE\f[], or \f[C]$HOME/.hledger.journal\f[] (on windows,
|
|
perhaps \f[C]C:/Users/USER/.hledger.journal\f[]).
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
.PP
|
|
The need to precede options with \f[C]\-\-\f[] when invoked from hledger
|
|
is awkward.
