rawOptsTo* in hledger-lib now takes a day as an argument, and does not
live in the IO monad, since it's now pure.
This is so that we can run tests containing future transactions that
won't fail as soon as ‘the future’ actually arrives.
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.
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.
This makes it possible to keep multiple named budgets in one journal,
and select the one you want with --budget's argument.
More precisely, you can select the subset of periodic transactions
rules which contain a certain fixed, case-insensitive substring.
Only one such --budget argument is supported, the last one on the
command line takes precedence.
This is done to be more consistent with future field naming conventions,
and to make automatic generation of lenses simpler. See discussion in
\#1545.
rsOpts -> _rsReportOpts
rsToday -> _rsDay
rsQuery -> _rsQuery
rsQueryOpts -> _rsQueryOpts
I'm not sure if it arose in practice, but: ensure TransactionScreen
in V mode would correctly use the journal's last day as valuation date,
not the day after that.
This does costing and valuation on a journal, and is meant to replace
most direct calls of costing and valuation. The exception is for reports
which require amounts to be summed before valuation is applied, for
example a historical balance report with --value=end.
we know we won't need them.
Knowing whether we need them is accomplished by pulling the "show-costs"
option used by the Close command up into ReportOpts.
price directives after the last transaction/posting date if using
--value=end.
Also enlarges the reportspan to encompass full intervals for budget
goals.
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.
Since this is option is now just an alias for -B/--cost, and since it
may be removed soon, we make it undocumented, though it will still
behave as before. --value=cost,COMM is unsupported as well.
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".
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.
querystring_.
This helps deal with tricky quoting issues, as we no longer have to make
sure everything is quoted properly before merging it into a string.
