# a5f9f8ce0

# 1.20.2 2020-12-28

- Fix the info manual's node structure.

- Use hledger 1.20.2.

# 1.20.1 2020-12-06

- don't hang when reloading the journal, eg after adding a transaction
  or editing the file. (#1409)

# 1.20 2020-12-05

- hledger-web's test suite is re-enabled, now included in the main executable.
  hledger-web --test [-- HSPECARGS] runs it.

- Fix --forecast, broken in hledger-web since 1.18 (#1390)

- Fix unescaped slashes in hledger-web description on hackage  (TANIGUCHI Kohei)

- The hledger-web version string is now provided at /version, as JSON (#1152)

- The session file (hledger-web_client_session_key.aes) is now written in 
  $XDG_DATA_DIR rather than the current directory.
  Eg on non-Windows systems this is ~/.cache/ by default (cf
  https://hackage.haskell.org/package/directory/docs/System-Directory.html#t:XdgDirectory).
  (#1344) (Félix Sipma)

# 1.19.1 2020-09-07

- Allow megaparsec 9

- Drop redundant semigroups dependency (Felix Yan)

# 1.19 2020-09-01

- Queries containing a malformed regular expression (eg the single
  character `?`) now show a tidy error message instead "internal
  server error" (Stephen Morgan, Simon Michael) (#1245)

- In account registers, a transaction dated outside the report period
  now is not shown even if it has postings dated inside the report
  period.

- Added a missing lower bound for aeson, making cabal installs more
  reliable. (#1268)

# 1.18.1 2020-06-21

- fix some doc typos (Martin Michlmayr)

# 1.18 2020-06-07

- The filter query is now preserved when clicking a different account
  in the sidebar. (Henning Thielemann)

- Hyperlinks are now more robust when there are multiple journal
  files, eg links from register to journal now work properly.
  (#1041) (Henning Thielemann)

## add form

- Fixed a 2016 regression causing too many rows to be added by
  keypresses in the last amount field or CTRL-plus (#422, #1059).

- Always start with four rows when opened.

- Drop unneeded C-minus/C-plus keys & related help text.


# 1.17.1 2020-03-19

- require newer Decimal, math-functions libs to ensure consistent
  rounding behaviour, even when built with old GHCs/snapshots. 
  hledger uses banker's rounding (rounds to nearest even number, eg
  0.5 displayed with zero decimal places is "0").

# 1.17 2020-03-01

- Fonts have been improved on certain platforms. (David Zhang)

- IPv6 is supported (Amarandus) (#1145)

- The --host option can now take a local hostname (Amarandus) (#1145)

- New --socket option to run hledger-web over an AF_UNIX socket file. (Carl Richard Theodor Schneider)
  This allows running multiple instances of hledger-web on the same
  system without having to manually choose a port for each instance,
  which is helpful for running individual instances for multiple
  users. In this scenario, the socket path is predictable, as it can
  be derived from the username.

- The edit and upload forms now normalise line endings, avoiding parse
  errors (#1194). Summary of current behaviour:

  - hledger add and import commands will append with (at least some)
    unix line endings, possibly causing the file to have mixed line
    endings

  - hledger-web edit and upload forms will write the file with
    the current system's native line endings, ie changing all
    line endings if the file previously used foreign line endings.

- Numbers in JSON output now provide a floating point Number
  representation as well as our native Decimal object representation,
  since the later can sometimes contain 255-digit integers. The
  floating point numbers can have up to 10 decimal digits (and an
  unbounded number of integer digits.)
  Experimental, suggestions needed. (#1195)


# 1.16.2 2020-01-14

- add support for megaparsec 8 (#1175)

- fix add form completions (#1156)

# 1.16.1 2019-12-03

- Drop unnecessary json (#1190), mtl-compat dependencies

- use hledger 1.16.1, fixing GHC 8.0/8.2 build

# 1.16 2019-12-01

- add support for GHC 8.8, base-compat 0.11 (#1090).
  For now, hledger-web needs an unreleased version of json.

- drop support for GHC 7.10

- Weeks in the add form's date picker now start on Mondays (#1109)
  (Timofey Zakrevskiy)

- The --cors option allows simple cross-origin requests to hledger-web
  (Alejandro García Montoro)

- The test suite has been disabled for now.

# 1.15 2019-09-01

- --serve-api disables the usual server-side web UI (leaving only the API routes)

- register page: account names are hyperlinked

- ?sidebar= now hides the sidebar, same as ?sidebar=0

- fix "_create_locale could not be located" error on windows 7 (#1039)

- use hledger 1.15

# 1.14.1 2019-03-20

- /accounts JSON: return all accounts, not just top-level ones (#985)
  Accounts are returned as a flat list, in tree order, with asubs fields empty.

- use hledger 1.14.2

# 1.14 2019-03-01

- serve the same JSON-providing routes as in hledger-api:
  ```
  /accountnames
  /transactions
  /prices
  /commodities
  /accounts
  /accounttransactions/ACCT
  ```
  And allow adding a new transaction by PUT'ing JSON (similar to the
  output of /transactions) to /add. This requires the `add` capability
  (which is enabled by default). Here's how to test with curl:
  ```
  $ curl -s http://127.0.0.1:5000/add -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-binary @in.json; echo
  ```
  (#316)

# 1.3.1 (2017/8/25)

-   allow megaparsec 6 (#594, Simon Michael, Hans-Peter Deifel)

-   allow megaparsec-6.1 (Hans-Peter Deifel)

-   restore upper bounds on hledger packages

# 1.3 (2017/6/30)

Depends on hledger\[-lib\] 1.3, see related changelogs.

# 1.2 (2017/3/31)

Accounts with ? in name had empty registers (fixes #498) (Bryan Richter)

Allow megaparsec 5.2 (fixes #503)

# 1.1 (2016/12/31)

-   add --host option (#429)

    This came up in the context of Docker, but it seems it wasn't
    possible for hledger-web to serve remote clients directly (without
    a proxy) because of 127.0.0.1 being hardcoded. That can now be
    changed with --host=IPADDR. Also, the default base url uses this
    address rather than a hard-coded "localhost".

-   rename --server to --serve

    The --server flag sounded too close in meaning to --host so
    I've renamed it to --serve. The old spelling is still accepted,
    but deprecated and will be removed in the next release.

# 1.0.1 (2016/10/27)

-   allow megaparsec 5.0 or 5.1

# 1.0 (2016/10/26)

## ui

-   use full width on large screens, hide sidebar on small screens, more standard bootstrap styling (#418, #422) (Dominik Süß)

-   show the sidebar by default (#310)

-   fix the add link's tooltip

-   when the add form opens, focus the first field (#338)

-   leave the add form's date field blank, avoiding a problem with tab clearing it (#322)

-   use transaction id instead of date in transaction urls (#308) (Thomas R. Koll)

-   after following a link to a transaction, highlight it (Thomas R. Koll)

-   misc. HTML/CSS/file cleanups/fixes (Thomas R. Koll)

## misc

-   startup is more robust (#226).

    Now we exit if something is already using the specified port,
    and we don't open a browser page before the app is ready.

-   termination is more robust, avoiding stray background threads.

    We terminate the server thread more carefully on exit, eg on control-C in GHCI.

-   more robust register dates and filtering in some situations (see hledger-ui notes)

-   reloading the journal preserves options, arguments in effect (#314).

    The initial query specified by command line arguments is now preserved
    when the journal is reloaded. This does not appear in the web UI, it's
    like an invisible extra filter.

-   show a proper not found page on 404

-   document the special \`inacct:\` query (#390)

0.27 (2015/10/30)

-   Fix keyboard shortcut for adding a transaction (Carlos Lopez-Camey)

-   Clear the form when clicking 'Add a transaction' (just like the shortcut) (Carlos Lopez-Camey)

-   Disallow -f- (reading from standard input) which currently doesn't work (#202)

-   Fix broken links when using --base-url (#235)

-   Fix the --file-url option (#285)

-   Show fewer "other accounts" in the account register: to reduce
    clutter in the "other accounts" field, if there are both real and
    virtual postings to other accounts, show only the accounts posted to
    by real postings.

0.26 (2015/7/12)

-   make the j keybinding respect --base-url (fixes #271)
-   respect command line options (fixes #225)
-   include the unminified jquery source again (#161)
-   fix build breakage from #165 (fixes #268)
-   fix a js error breaking add form in browsers other than firefox (#251, Carlos Lopez-Camey <c.lopez@kmels.net>)
-   drop deprecated network-conduit dependency

0.25 (2015/4/7)

-   GHC 7.10 compatibility (#239)

-   fix the add form when there are included files (#234)

    NB to make this work, the add form now shows the full file path of
    the main and included journal files.

-   improve add form validation (#223, #234)

    All add form errors are displayed as form errors, not internal
    server errors, and when there are errors the add form is redisplayed
    (form inputs are not preserved, currently).

-   keep the add button right-aligned when pressing ctrl - on the add form

0.24.1 (2015/1/10)

-   add missing modules to fix cabal tests (#232)
