hledger/bin

Miscellaneous hledger add-ons, bash scripts, example make rules, etc.

hledger-*.hs are example/experimental hledger add-on commands, shipped as executable stack scripts. They are easiest to run reliably if you have stack in your PATH; they will install required dependencies and compile themselves as needed. (You can also run them with cabal or runghc, or compile them with ghc, if you take care of the dependencies.)

• hledger-check.hs - check more complex account balance assertions
• hledger-smooth.hs - an attempt at automatically splitting infrequent/irregular transactions
• hledger-swap-dates.hs - print transactions with their date and date2 fields swapped
• hledger-combine-balances.hs - render two balance reports as single multi-column one
• hledger-balance-as-budget.hs - use one balance report as the budget for the other one

Installing a single script

$ curl -sO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonmichael/hledger/master/bin/hledger-check.hs
$ chmod +x hledger-check.hs
$ ./hledger-check.hs --help

If you put the script somewhere in your $PATH, it will also show up as a hledger command, so this also works:

$ hledger check -- --help

Note the --, which is required to separate script options from hledger options:

$ hledger [HLEDGEROPTS] ADDONCMD [-- ADDONOPTS]

Installing all scripts

$ git clone https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger
$ # add hledger/bin/ to your $PATH
$ hledger  # addons appear in command list
