Previously, hledger could read CSV files containing non-ascii
characters only if they are UTF8-encoded. Now there is a new CSV
rule, encoding ENCODING, which allows reading CSV files with other
encodings.
This adds a dependency on the encoding library, which supports fewer
encodings than text-icu but does not require a third-party C library.
To avoid build issues on various platforms, we require version 0.10+.
This adds some use of the ImplicitParams language extension, required
by encoding's API, but only in a small code region.
This also changes the type of Reader's rReadFn; it now takes
a `Handle` rather than a `Text`, allowing more flexibility.
When print is generating beancount output, turn off the usual
inheritance of account tags by postings; it would generate excessive
metadata in the journal. Beancount can do or not do that kind of
inheritance itself.
--color now also works in a config file, like --pager, except for two
cases: it does not affect colouring of debug output, or the colouring
helpers used in the check recentassertions error message.
The hledger-web tests have been cleaned up and now allow more testing
of command line options like (though still not everything).
Note tests now run the app listening on its default host and port,
127.0.0.1 and 5000, instead of "any IPv4 or IPv6 hostname" and 3000.
This would seem to mean hledger-web tests can conflict more with
things running on port 5000, eg a normal hledger-web instance, but I
haven't been able to reproduce it.
This test appeared to have failed after adding source positions to
generated transactions. This is because the generated transaction id for
web pages appears to be dependent on whether the transaction has an
associated source file. Because it has one associated now, the id was
updated to be 'transaction-2-1' for instance, instead of
'transaction-0-1' as it would have been before. The fix is to change the
test.
This increases composability and avoids some ugly case handling. We
re-export runExceptT in Hledger.Read.
The final return types of the following functions has been changed from
IO (Either String a) to ExceptT String IO a. If this causes a problem,
you can get the old behaviour by calling runExceptT on the output:
readJournal, readJournalFiles, readJournalFile
Or, you can use the easy functions readJournal', readJournalFiles', and
readJournalFile', which assume default options and return in the IO
monad.
rather than as a postprocessing step. (#1638)
This allows us to have a uniform procedure for balancing transactions,
whether they are normal transactions or forecast transactions, including
dealing with balance assignments, balance assertions, and auto postings.
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.
