Simon Michael fbbae55101 imp: cli: merge register-match with register command
register-match is now the --match mode of the register command.
It was used by ledger-autosync at one point, hopefully the new flag
works similarly.

Files

Some views and explanations of files in the hledger project, as of 2022-12.


hledger working copy

A full working copy of the official hledger repos is best laid out like this (manually; we currently don't use git submodules):

src/hledger/ - git clone https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger; cd hledger
  site/      - git clone https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger_site site
  finance/   - git clone https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger_finance finance

You don't need to clone all of these repos unless you are working in all of those areas.

The next two listings show the directories in the main and site repos:

main repo directories

The main repo contains the hledger-lib, hledger, hledger-ui, and hledger-web haskell packages, the hledger-install script, a collection of example data, some documentation and other support files.

Core docs

Core documentation which should stay closely synced with hledger's implementation (changelogs, user manuals, developer docs) is kept in the main repo.

  • Many directories have a README.md explaining their purpose and content.

  • Each hledger package, and the project itself, has a CHANGES.md changelog file.

  • hledger/hledger.m4.md, hledger-ui/hledger-ui.m4.md, hledger-web/hledger-web.m4.md are the user manuals, which get rendered as html, info, man and plain text. They are processed first with m4 for extra flexibility.

  • The hledger manual imports the subcommand docs from hledger/Hledger/Cli/Commands/*.md.

  • doc/ contains other developer docs.

Additional docs

Additional docs (intro pages, faqs, tutorials, cookbook..) are kept in the site repo's src/ directory. index.md is the home page. SUMMARY.md defines the site structure.

Developer docs (UPPERCASE) and the latest dev manuals (dev/*.md) from the main repo are also symbolically linked there, so that they too appear on the website.

Site config files

These help configure the website.

  • book.toml is the main config file for mdbook.

  • src/SUMMARY.md defines the site's pages and which ones appear in the sidebar (except for old manual versions; those are rendered separately).
