Attention, attention hledger-folk! Once again, Happy Hallowe'en.
|
Two months since last release, I'm pleased to announce hledger 1.1 !
|
||||||
|
Thank you to contributors Johannes Gerer, Nikolay Orlyuk, and Shubham
|
||||||
|
Lagwankar, along with all others who contributed in other ways.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After almost ten years of steady development, and one year since
|
hledger (http://hledger.org) is a dependable, precise, cross-platform
|
||||||
our last major release, I am very pleased to announce..
|
program for tracking money, time, or any other commodity, using
|
||||||
|
double-entry accounting and a simple plain text file format. Inspired
|
||||||
|
by the Ledger project, hledger provides command-line, curses and web
|
||||||
|
interfaces, and aims to be a robust, practical tool for daily use.

hledger (http://hledger.org) is a cross-platform program for tracking

|
|
||||||
and a simple plain text file format.

||||||
|
|
||||||
- the hledger.org website is simpler, clearer, and more mobile-friendly
|
To install this release:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- docs have been reorganized, with more focussed manuals available in
|
Get stack, eg from http://haskell-lang.org/get-started
|
||||||
multiple versions, formats and as built-in help
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- we support the latest GHC (8 and 7.10), stackage snapshots, and
|
|
||||||
libs. (GHC 7.8 and 7.6 support are not currently supported,
|
|
||||||
maintainers welcome.)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- hledger has migrated from parsec to megaparsec and from String to
|
|
||||||
Text, parsers have been simplified, memory usage is ~30% less on
|
|
||||||
large files, speed is slightly improved all around
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- --pivot (group by arbitrary tag instead of account) and --anon
|
|
||||||
(obfuscate account names) are now supported
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- hledger-ui has acquired many new features making it more useful
|
|
||||||
(file editing, filtering, historical/period modes, quick period
|
|
||||||
browsing..)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- hledger-web is more robust and more mobile-friendly
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- hledger-api, a simple web API server, has been added
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- a new "timedot" file format allows retroactive/approximate time
|
|
||||||
logging
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- the project continues to grow. A call for help was sent out last
|
|
||||||
month, and contributor activity is increasing
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- a new website, http://plaintextaccounting.org, has been created as a
|
|
||||||
portal and knowledge base for hledger, Ledger, beancount and related
|
|
||||||
tools and practices.
