* CSV conversion rules have a [new format](MANUAL.html#csv-files) that aims to be more
|
**Fixes:**
|
||||||
intuitive, powerful and extensible. Existing rules files will need
|
|
||||||
to be updated manually, here are some upgrade tips:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `FIELD-field N` -> `FIELD %N+1` (or set them all at once with a `fields` rule)
|
* balance: fix a 0.19 regression showing wrong total balance with `--flat` (#94)
|
||||||
- `base-currency` -> `currency`
|
* register: when `--date2` is used, sort by that date
|
||||||
- `base-account` -> `account1`
|
* web: add missing static & template files to package fixing cabal-dev and hackage builds (#97, #98)
|
||||||
|
* web: fix some hardcoded static urls
|
||||||
|
* web: dependency updates, build fixes, GHC 7.6 compatibility
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Journal reading:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- DOS-style line-endings are now also supported in journal and rules files.
|
||||||
|
- `!` is now accepted in the status field as well as `*`, like ledger
|
||||||
|
- The *actual date* and *effective date* terminology has changed to *primary date* and *secondary date*.
|
||||||
|
Use `--date2` to select the secondary date for reports. (`--aux-date` or `--effective` are also accepted
|
||||||
|
for ledger and backwards compatibility).
|
||||||
|
- Per-posting dates are supported, using hledger tags or ledger's posting date syntax
|
||||||
|
- Comment and tag handling has been improved
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**CSV reading:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- CSV conversion rules have a simpler, more flexible [syntax](MANUAL.html#csv-files).
|
||||||
|
Existing rules files will need to be updated manually:
|
||||||
|
- the filename is now `FILE.csv.rules` instead of `FILE.rules`
|
||||||
|
- `FIELD-field N` is now `FIELD %N+1` (or set them all at once with a `fields` rule)
|
||||||
|
- `base-currency` is now `currency`
|
||||||
|
- `base-account` is now `account1`
|
||||||
- account-assigning rules:
|
- account-assigning rules:
|
||||||
add `if` before the list of regexps,
|
add `if` before the list of regexps,
|
||||||
add indented `account2 ` before the account name
|
add indented `account2 ` before the account name
|
||||||
|
- parenthesised amounts are parsed as negative
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Non-unix-style line endings in journal and rules files are now supported.
|
**Querying:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Querying by the code field (check number) is now supported using the `code:` prefix.
|
- Use `code:` to match the transaction code (check number) field
|
||||||
|
- Use `amt:` followed by `<`, `=` or `>` and a number N to match
|
||||||
|
amounts by magnitude. Eg `amt:<0` or `amt:=100`. This works only
|
||||||
|
with single-commodity amounts (multi-commodity amounts are
|
||||||
|
always matched).
|
||||||
|
- `tag:` can now match (exact, case sensitive) tag values. Eg `tag:TAG=REGEXP`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Querying by amount is now supported using the `amt:` prefix.
|
**add comand:**
|
||||||
It should be followed by `<`, `=` or `>`, and a number N, eg `amt:<0` or `amt:=100`.
|
|
||||||
For simple (single commodity) amounts, this matches if the amount's quantity has the specified relationship to N.
|
|
||||||
For multi-commodity amounts, it always matches.
|
|
||||||
If parsing fails, an error is raised.
|
|
||||||
This has not been tested for floating-point precision.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* *actual* & *effective dates* are now called *primary* & *secondary dates*.
|
- Transaction codes and comments (which may contain tags) can now be entered, following a date or amount respectively. (#45)
|
||||||
Use --date2 to select the secondary date for reports (--effective or --aux-date are also accepted for compatibility).
|
- The current entry may be restarted by entering `<` at any prompt. (#47)
|
||||||
|
- Entries are displayed and confirmed before they are written to the journal.
|
||||||
|
- Default values may be specified for the first entry by providing them as command line arguments.
|
||||||
|
- Miscellaneous UI cleanups
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* add: allow transaction codes or comments/tags to be entered (following a date or amount, respectively) (#45)
|
**register command:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* add: entering < at any prompt restarts the current transaction (#47)
|
- The `--related`/`-r` flag shows the other postings in each transaction, like ledger.
|
||||||
|
- The `--width`/`-w` option increases or sets the output width.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* add: show and confirm the entry before adding it to the journal
|
**web command:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* add: use command line arguments as defaults for the first entry
|

|
||||||
|
- A favicon is served
|
||||||
|
- The search field is wider
|
||||||

|
||||||
* add: misc. ui cleanups

||||||

|
||||||
