|

This could be caused by:
|
||||
* Loading two different object files which export the same symbol
|
||||
* Specifying the same object file twice on the GHCi command line
|
||||
* An incorrect `package.conf' entry, causing some object to be
|
||||
loaded twice.
|
||||
GHCi cannot safely continue in this situation. Exiting now. Sorry.

*** cli, web: richer filter patterns
|

ledger's query syntax: http://ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger.1.html
|
||||
**** draft 1:
|
||||
|
||||
Filter patterns restrict the postings/transactions that are displayed.
|
||||
(They often reduce the amount of processing work hledger has to do, as well.)
|
||||
A pattern is a string or regular expression, usually with a prefix specifying the type of match to do.
|
||||
The supported prefixes are:
|
||||
|
||||
acct:PAT match postings affecting accounts whose name matches PAT
|
||||
otheracct:PAT match the other postings in transactions with an acct match (like ledger's --related)
|
||||
anyacct:PAT match all postings in transactions with an acct match (union of acct and otheracct)
|
||||
desc:PAT match postings whose description matches PAT
|
||||
status:PAT match postings whose cleared status matches PAT
|
||||
code:PAT match postings whose transaction code matches PAT
|
||||
tag:PAT match postings with a metadata tag whose name matches PAT
|
||||
tag:TAG=PAT match postings with a metadata tag named TAG whose value matches PAT
|
||||
from:DATE match postings on or after DATE (like --begin)
|
||||
to:DATE match postings before DATE (like --end)
|
||||
in:PERIOD match postings during PERIOD (like --period)
|
||||
(or ?
|
||||
begin:DATE match postings on or after DATE (like --begin)
|
||||
end:DATE match postings before DATE (like --end)
|
||||
period:PERIOD match postings during PERIOD (like --period)
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
Prefixes have a short form which is their first letter, except for tag and anyacct.
|
||||
|
||||
Prefix-less patterns are treated like acct: patterns, except by the
|
||||
register command which treats them as otheracct: .
|
||||
|
||||
Patterns containing whitespace must be enclosed in quotes.
|
||||
|
||||
Matches are always case-insensitive.
|
||||
|
||||
Matches are always substring matches (except for TAG); to match exactly,
|
||||
wrap the pattern in ^ and $.
|
||||
|
||||
A posting's date, status, code, etc. is usually (but not always) that of
|
||||
its containing transaction.
|
||||
|
||||
Any of these may be further prefixed with not: for an inverse match.
|
||||
|
||||
Filter patterns may be combined with AND, OR, and parentheses. OR is
|
||||
assumed by default.
|
||||
|
||||
*** web: optional production build needing no files at all (static files embedded)
|
||||
*** docs: better intro, less wall-of-text, separate reference manual & tutorials
|
||||
*** balance: --depth with --flat should show aggregate balances including the non-displayed deeper accounts
|
||||
*** take port from base-url when appropriate
|
||||
*** parsing: support --options (?)
|
||||
*** parsing: let's enforce positive price amounts for clarity, like ledger
|
||||
eg 1€ @@ $-2 is not allowed
|
||||
*** parsing: canonicalise account names to be case-insensitive ?
|
||||
*** parsing: period expressions should allow interval at the end
|
||||
eg support -p 'from 1/1 to 2/1 weekly'
|
||||
|
||||
*** parsing: only journals (not timelog files) can include, and only another journal
|
||||
*** --empty-parents
