Accounts, postings, and transactions can now all be filtered by the
tags in an account's declaration. In particular it's now possible to
more reliably select accounts by type, using their type: tag rather
than their name:
account myasset ; type:Asset
account myliability ; type:Liability
$ hledger accounts tag:type=^a
myasset
Accounts inherit tags from their parents.
API changes:
A finalised Journal has a new jdeclaredaccounttags field
for easy lookup of account tags.
Query.matchesTaggedAccount is a tag-aware version of matchesAccount.
Previously the helper functions splitspan and splitspan' would calculate
each span from the start point of the previous span. This meant we had
to be very careful not to lose any relevant information (e.g. what day
of the week it was) about the original start date. We now calculate each
span from the original start date, so there's no risk of losing
information. This simplifies many of the calculations.
parsers to allow for arbitrary numbers of periods in relative dates.
We now accept smart dates like “in 5 days, 5 weeks ahead, in -6 months, 2 quarters ago”.
Introduce --infer-equity option which will generate conversion postings.
--cost will override --infer-equity.
This means there will no longer be unbalanced transactions, but will be
offsetting conversion postings to balance things out. For example.
2000-01-01
a 1 AAA @@ 2 BBB
b -2 BBB
When converting to cost, this is treated the same as before.
When used with --infer-equity, this is now treated as:
2000-01-01
a 1 AAA
equity:conversion:AAA-BBB:AAA -1 AAA
equity:conversion:AAA-BBB:BBB 2 BBB
b -2 BBB
There is a new account type, Conversion/V, which is a subtype of Equity/E.
The first account declared with this type, if any, is used as the base account
for inferred equity postings in conversion transactions, overriding the default
"equity:conversion".
API changes:
Costing has been changed to ConversionOp with three options:
NoConversionOp, ToCost, and InferEquity.
The first correspond to the previous NoCost and Cost options, while the
third corresponds to the --infer-equity flag. This converts transactions with costs
(one or more transaction prices) to transactions with equity:conversion postings.
It is in ConversionOp because converting to cost with -B/--cost and inferring conversion
equity postings with --infer-equity are mutually exclusive.
Correspondingly, the cost_ record of ReportOpts has been changed to
conversionop_.
This also removes show_costs_ option in ReportOpts, as its functionality
has been replaced by the richer cost_ option.
Together with -E, this shows a balance for both used and declared
accounts (excluding empty parent accounts, which are usually not
wanted in list-mode reports).
This is somewhat consistent with --declared in the accounts and payees
commands, except for the leaf account restriction.
The idea of this is to be able to see a useful "complete" balance
report, even when you don't have transactions in all of your declared
accounts yet. I mainly want this for hledger-ui, but there's no harm
in exposing it in the balance CLI as well.
This allows more control over how multicommodity amounts are displayed.
In addition to the default single-line display, and the recent commodity
column display, we now have multi-line display. This is controlled by
the --layout option, which has possible values "wide", "tall", and
"bare". The --commodity-column option has been hidden, but is equivalent
to --layout=bare.
squash
Replace showPosting with a wrapper around postingAsLines.
The functions textConcat(Top|Bottom)Padded are no longer used anywhere
in the code base, and can be removed if desired.
This produces slightly different output for showPosting, in particular
it no longer displays the transaction date. However, this has been
marked as ‘for debugging only’ for a while, and is only used in
hledger-check-fancy assertions. The output there is still acceptable.
Combining valuation with filtration is subtle and error-prone (see e.g. #1625).
We have to do in in both MultiBalanceReport and PostingsReport, where it
is done in slightly different ways. This refactors this functionality
into separate functions which are called in both reports, for uniform
behaviour.
(SourcePos, SourcePos).
This has been marked for possible removal for a while. We are keeping
strictly more information. Possible edge cases arise with Timeclock and
CsvReader, but I think these are covered.
The particular motivation for getting rid of this is that
GenericSourcePos is creating some awkward import considerations for
little gain. Removing this enables some flattening of the module
dependency tree.
Hledger.Data.Balancing.
Both Hledger.Data.Transaction and Hledger.Data.Journal are massive
module with many things in them. Placing the balancing functions, which
are conceptually related, into a separate module helps keep things more
modular.
It also reduces the risk of import cycles, as right now balancing
functions cannot depend on any functions defined outside of
Hledger.Data.Transaction or Hledger.Data.Journal, respectively, if those
modules require basic transaction or journal functions.
mixedAmount(Looks|Is)Zero now operate directly on the MixedAmount,
rather than converting them to a list of amounts first.
mixedAmountCost no longer reconstructs the entire MixedAmount when there
are amounts with no cost.
transactionCheckBalanced only checks if signs are okay if sums are not
okay. It also only traverses the list of postings once when picking real
and balanced virtual postings.
There are no modules which depend on Hledger.Data.Commodity which don't
also depend on Hledger.Data.Amount. Though Hledger.Data.Amount is a very
large module and might be broken up, Hledger.Data.Commodity only defines
three very small functions which are used, and so can be combined with
little cost.
POSIXTime.
This eliminates old-time, which has been deprecated for a while, from
our dependencies.
This introduces a slight incompatibility, as a small number of functions
now take/return POSIXTime instead of ClockTime. Generally you will be
using the current time, in which case you should use getPOSIXTime from
Data.Time.Clock.POSIX instead of getClockTime.
utcTimeToClockTime has been removed, as it is now equivalent to
utcTimeToPOSIXSeconds from Data.Time.Clock.POSIX.
We can't filter out empty commodity strings since that is a legitimate
group. Simultaneously, we should only include the empty commodity if it
is explicitly used (part of a posting) and not generated as part of
`Amounts.amounts`
A gain report will report on unrealised gains by looking at the
difference between the valuation of an amount (by default, --value=end),
and the valuation of the cost of the amount.
This adds the `--commodity-column` option that displays each commodity
on a separate line and the commodities themselves as a separate column.
The initial design considerations are at
simonmichael.hledger.issues.1559
The single-period balance report with `--commodity-column` does not
interoperate with custom formats.
style amounts according to that argument. journalAddForecast and
journalTransform now return an Either String Journal.
This improves efficiency, as we no longer have to restyle all amounts in
the journal after generating auto postings or periodic transactions.
Changing the return type of journalAddForecast and journalTransform
reduces partiality.
To get the previous behaviour for modifyTransaction, use modifyTransaction mempty.
In Amount, aismultiplier is a boolean flag that will always be False,
except for in TMPostingRules, where it indicates whether the posting
rule is a multiplier. It is therefore unnecessary in the vast majority
of cases. This posting pulls this flag out of Amount and puts it into
TMPostingRule, so it is only kept around when necessary.
This changes the parsing of journals somewhat. Previously you could
include an * before an amount anywhere in a Journal, and it would
happily parse and set the aismultiplier flag true. This will now fail
with a parse error: * is now only acceptable before an amount within an
auto posting rule.
Any usage of the library in which the aismultiplier field is read or set
should be removed. If you truly need its functionality, you should
switch to using TMPostingRule.
This changes the JSON output of Amount, as it will no longer include
aismultiplier.
This change provides more predictable and intuitive behaviour when
using -S/--sort-amount with multiple commodities.
It implements a custom Ord (and Eq) instance for MixedAmount
which substitutes zero for any missing commodities.
As a consequence, all the ways of representing zero with a MixedAmount ([],
[A 0], [A 0, B 0, ...]) are now Eq-ual (==), whereas before they were
not. We have not been able to find anything broken by this change.
* imp: lib: Compare MixedAmounts by substituting zero for any missing commodities. (#1563)
* ;doc: Update docs for new multicommodity sort by amount rules.
Also corrects a regression introduced in
8ab29f84b32288a34ae7627a2204081fae31900f where transaction modifier

inferring any prices. This is included in --strict mode.

instead of a list of Amounts. No longer export Mixed constructor, to
keep API clean (if you really need it, you can import it directly from
Hledger.Data.Types). We also ensure the JSON representation of
MixedAmount doesn't change: it is stored as a normalised list of
Amounts.
This commit improves performance. Here are some indicative results.

If you never directly use the constructor Mixed or pattern match against
it then you don't need to make any changes. If you do, then do the
following:
- If you really care about the individual Amounts and never normalise
your MixedAmount (for example, just storing `Mixed amts` and then
extracting `amts` as a pattern match, then use should switch to using
[Amount]. This should just involve removing the `Mixed` constructor.
- If you ever call `mixed`, `normaliseMixedAmount`, or do any sort of
amount arithmetic (+), (-), then you should replace the constructor
`Mixed` with the function `mixed`. To extract the list of Amounts, use
the function `amounts`.
- If you ever call `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`, you can
replace that with `mixedAmountStripPrices`. (N.B. this does something
slightly different from `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`,
but I don't think there's any use case for squashing prices and then
keeping the first of the squashed prices around. If you disagree let
me know.)
- Any remaining calls to `normaliseMixedAmount` can be removed, as that
is now the identity function.
existing representation is small enough.
Previously the JSON representation of Decimal was rounded to 10 points
of precision before serialising. This sometimes results in an
unnecessary increase of precision.
It now uses the same JSON representation as Maybe Word8. This means that
the JSON serialisation is now broadly compatible with that used before the
commit f6fa76bba7, differing only in
how it handles numbers outside Word8 and that it can now produce null
for NaturalPrecision.
Comparing two Quantity (either with (==) or compare) does a lot of
normalisation (calling roundMax) which is unnecessary if we're comparing
to zero. Do things more directly to save work.
For reg -f examples/10000x10000x10.journal, this results in
- A 12% reduction in heap allocations, from 70GB to 62GB
- A 14% reduction in (profiled) time, from 79s to 70s
Results for bal -f examples/10000x10000x10.journal are of the same order
of magnitude.
rather than lists. This is probably not an enormous performance sink in real
situations, but it takes a huge amount of time and memory in our
benchmarks (specifically 10000x10000x10.journal).
For bal -f examples/10000x10000x10.journal, this results in
- A 23% reduction in heap allocation, from 27GiB to 21GiB

former being a simple wrapper around the latter.
This removes the need for the showNormalised option, as showMixedAmountB
will always showNormalised and showAmountsB will never do so.
We also strip prices from MixedAmount before displaying if not displaying prices.
Exceptions are for dealing with the pamount field, which is really just
dealing with an unnormalised list of amounts.
This creates an API for dealing with MixedAmount, so we never have to
access the internals outside of Hledger.Data.Amount.
Also remove a comment, since it looks like #1207 has been resolved.
supplant the old interface, which relied on the Num typeclass.
MixedAmount did not have a very good Num instance. The only functions
which were defined were fromInteger, (+), and negate. Furthermore, it
was not law-abiding, as 0 + a /= a in general. Replacements for used
functions are:
0 -> nullmixedamt / mempty
(+) -> maPlus / (<>)
(-) -> maMinus
negate -> maNegate
sum -> maSum
sumStrict -> maSum
Also creates some new constructors for MixedAmount:
mixedAmount :: Amount -> MixedAmount
maAddAmount :: MixedAmount -> Amount -> MixedAmount
maAddAmounts :: MixedAmount -> [Amount] -> MixedAmount
Add Semigroup and Monoid instances for MixedAmount.
Ideally we would remove the Num instance entirely.
The only change needed have nullmixedamt/mempty substitute for
0 without problems was to not squash prices in
mixedAmount(Looks|Is)Zero. This is correct behaviour in any case.
price directives after the last transaction/posting date if using
--value=end.
Also enlarges the reportspan to encompass full intervals for budget
goals.
both the quantity and the cost are zero. This is usually what you want,
but if you do only want to check whether the quantity is zero, you
can run mixedAmountStripPrices (or similar) before this.
(multiply|divide)(Mixed)?Amount now also multiply or divide the
TotalPrice if it is present, and the old
(multiply|divide)(Mixed)?AmountAndPrice functions are removed.
internally, closing a big space leak.
This also now combines Amounts with TotalPrices in the same commodity
when normalising; amounts with TotalPrices were previously never
combined.
aquantity.
Journal entries still require a positive @@ price, but now the sign is
set after parsing, rather than when converting in amountToCost.
The reason for this change is that, if we're going to perform arithmetic
on Amount with TotalCost, then the presence of aquantity=0 means that
amountToCost would render the total cost as 0, because signum 0 == 0.
This makes journal entries like the following impossible to balance:
2000-01-01
a 0 @@ 10 A
b -10 A

It would not add the tag when a comment already existed.
This affected hledger-print-location.hs and probably

For clarity; infer-value was too vague. The old spelling remains
supported for compatibility, but is now deprecated.
When typing, --infer-market or even --infer (for now) is sufficient.
On the accounts screen and register screen we round amounts according
to commodity styles, but when you drill down to a transaction you
probably want to see the unrounded amounts.
Ensures parseable and more sensible-looking output in more cases, and behaves more like Ledger's print.
There is still an issue with adding trailing zeroes, which would be nice to prevent.
independently.
You can now combine costing and valuation, for example "--cost
--value=then" will first convert to costs, and then value according to
the "--value=then" strategy. Any valuation strategy can be used with or
without costing.
If multiple valuation and costing strategies are specified on the
command line, then if any of them include costing
(-B/--cost/--value=cost) then amounts will be converted to cost, and for
valuation strategy the rightmost will be used.
--value=cost is deprecated, but still supported and is equivalent to
--cost/-B. --value=cost,COMM is no longer supported, but this behaviour can be
achieved with "--cost --value=then,COMM".
costing and valuation.
This currently is given a dummy NoCost argument and is equivalent to
"maybe id (*ApplyValuation ...)", but provides a constant interface so
that internal behaviour can be changed freely.
Also adds a postingDate argument to amountApplyValuation, and re-orders
the ValuationType and (Transaction/Posting) arguments to
(transaction/posting)ApplyValuation, to be consistent with
amountApplyValuation.
Searching for prices during valuation no longer now properly excludes
price loops, avoiding near infinite looping with certain
configurations of market prices. Also we now always use a direct price
when available, rather than searching unnecessarily.
Price searching progress info, useful for troubleshooting, is now
displayed with --debug=2.
There could still be some corner cases we don't handle correctly. We
now give up with an error message if the searched price chains get too
long (> 1000). More importantly, we should also give up if the search
iterates too many times, but this is not done yet.
A "hledger check" argument may now be a quoted string containing
the check name followed by space-separated arguments, for
checks which make use of those. This means the check command
can replicate "check-dates --unique" and (in principle)
"check-fancyassertions ASSERTIONS..". Eg:
hledger check "dates --unique"
I think it'll be better for checks to take no arguments or options,
so this is probably just a transitional feature for compatibility.
Command-line account aliases now also affect transactions read
from these formats (not just journal format).
lib: journalApplyAliases, transactionApplyAliases, postingApplyAliases
helpers have been added.
Work on hledger-web tests showed some bad behaviour, in particular
journalReloadIfNewer would always reload a journal read from a string
or stdout. This is now fixed, and an ugly read.show conversion has
been cleaned up.
Hledger.Cli.Utils API changes:
removed:
- journalSpecifiedFileIsNewer
- fileModificationTime
added:
- utcTimeToClockTime
changed:
- journalFileIsNewer now requires a file argument
Journal keeps a new piece of parsing state, a decimal mark character,
which can optionally be set to force the number format expected by all
amount parsers.
This introduces some new helper functions which are exactly the same
as what we had before, but do not call
normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay, so that we can use the new
functions for displaying Transaction and Posting. It also goes through
and gets rid of most uses of the old showMixed* functions which would
benefit from using the new interface.
This changes showMixedAmountElided so that the width to elide to is
given as an argument, rather than fixed at 22 characters. This
actually uses the new renderTable interface. Mostly this is just an
internal change, but since we have more information about the widths
of things, we can actually get rid of some superfluous spaces in the
budget report output, previously there to make sure it stayed aligned
with the largest reasonable contents.
Previously showMixedAmountElided would show two amounts and then the
elision string if necessary. Now it will display as many Amounts as it
can subject to the condition that the amounts plus the elision string
fit within 22 characters.
This is an API change, but it seems better than having additional
colour-supporting variants and trying to avoid duplicated code.
I stopped short of changing showAmount, so cshowAmount still exists.
Multicolumn balance reports showing many commodities tend to become
unreadably wide, especially in tree mode. Now by default we show at
most two commodities, and a count of the rest if there are more than
two. This should help keep reports somewhat readable by default.
As mentioned by netvor on IRC, the unbalanced transaction error was
not too clear when postings all have the same sign.
Some other wording has been clarified, and the main error message is
now shown on multiple lines for readability (at the cost of
predictability/grepability..)
There's also a probably unnoticeable change: selecting which parts of
the error to show is now based on display precisions (reusing the
balanced check logic), rather than original precisions.
Amounts in JSON are now rendered as simple Numbers with up to 10
decimal places, instead of Decimal objects which would in some cases
have 255 digits, too many for most JSON parsers to handle.
A provisional fix, see the comment in Json.hs for more detail.
D directives are now fully equivalent to commodity directives for
setting a commodity's display style. (Previously it was equivalent to
a posting amount, so it couldn't limit the number of decimal places.)
When both kinds of directive exist, commodity directives take precedence.
When there are multiple D directives in the journal, only the last one
affects display style.
Stop exporting journalAmounts, overJournalAmounts, traverseJournalAmounts.
Rename journalAmounts helper to journalStyleInfluencingAmounts.
D directives are now a little better at influencing amount
canonicalisation, eg in the updated test case.
Fix presumably copy-paste errors
timeclock format has only timeclock lines or empty/comment lines
Update test format to v3, add new tests
Throw error on unexpected clock codes in timeclock format

but the old functions have the semantics I want and
I don't understand the new ones yet.
This can hide other deprecation warnings in this file,
and presumably the old functions will be removed later,
so this is temporary.
Cf https://github.com/ndmitchell/safe/issues/26
Hledger.Util.Tests helpers have been cleaned up, and test names are
now shown.
Tests have been cleaned up a bit. Some groups of unnamed tests have
been collapsed into a single named test containing a sequence of
assertions. The test command counts named tests, not assertions, so
the reported unit test count has dropped from 199 to 188.
easytest is not actively maintained and requires an old version of
hedgehog which does not support base-compat 0.11 & ghc 8.8.
This is still using the old easytest helpers, and not displaying test
names properly.
It seems we don't use it at all, and ony says it's not robust with
prices either.
Merge remote-tracking branch 'ony/chores/drop-elide-in-showTransaction'
This commit introduces the commandline argument -%/--percent to show
percentages of the column's total instead of the absolute amounts for
each account in reports. The signs of the values are preserved.
This option is especially useful for the balance and incomestatement
commands.
If there are multiple commodities involved in a report hledger bails
with an error message. This can be avoided by using --cost. Also note
that if one uses -% with the balance command the chances are high that
all numbers are 0. This is due to the fact that by default balance sums
up to zero. If one wants to use -% in a meaningful way with balance one
has to add a query.
In order to keep the implementation as simple as possible --tree has no
influence over how the percentages are calculated, i.e., the percentages
always represent the fraction of the columns total. If one wants to know
the percentages relative to a parent account, one has to use a query to
narrow down the accounts.
This behavior is highly depends on journal. If we want to re-introduce
it we'd better re-consider how transaction entry can be "simplified".
I.e. besides dropping last amount we may drop prices that can be assumed
implicitly.
Note that there is no need to knit it into showTransaction since it
easily achievable with pre-processing (similar to implicit balances
etc).
