- Added support for unseparated dates, for convenience in ghci and for parseHledgerVersion
- Noted two user-facing uses: --value's argument, and import's .latest files.
YYYYMMDD dates will now also work there. Left this undocumented.
- Noted this is now more permissive, parsing many integers successfully; not expecting problems.
These now call error' and show errors in the standard style:
- reading a nonexistent data file
- reading an unsafe dotted file name on windows
- web: using --socket on windows
- demo: demo not found
- demo: error while running asciinema
- diff: bad arguments
- print --match: no match found
- register --match: no match found
- roi: no investment transactions found
Hledger.Utils.IO helpers have been updated and new ones have been
added (exitOnExceptions, exitWithError) to allow consistent display of
program errors whether compiled with GHC <9.10, GHC 9.10, or GHC >9.10.
The trailing newlines added by GHC 9.10 are gone,
and so is the "uncaught exception" output added by GHC 9.12.
We now support having multiple sessions clocked in. These are paired by
account name if given on the out entry, and otherwise an out closes the
most recent in entry.
Note that this breaks some backwards compatibility, in that we
previously ignored the description on the clock out entry. To mitigate
this, a new hidden flag --timeclock-old has been added, which reverts to
the old behavior.
"-" implies data from standard input so "string" is perhaps more
correct, but I think this is a harmless simplification and it
makes `files` output consistent when run by `run`.
`If blocks` and `If tables` now allow multiple matchers on the same line
separated by `&&` (AND) or `&& !` (AND NOT).
Example `if block` with two matchers on the same line:
if %description amazon && %date 2025-02-22
account2 expenses:books
Example `if table` with two matchers on the same line:
if,account2
%description amazon && %date 2025-02-22, expenses:books
On some systems, TERM is set to a value that doesn't have a valid
terminfo entry. Rather than hackily fall back on a value for TERM that
appears to work in most contexts (TERM=dumb) but which isn't guaranteed
anywhere to be valid, use proper POSIX ioctls to get the tty width.
This has the added bonus of also working on Windows.
In fact, we already settled on computing the terminal size in this way
in hledger-lib, so this commit centralizes the choice of the logic
there.
Also added a note for alternative methods and their tradeoffs, in case
this turns out to be fragile on some systems.
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.
error' and usageError now redden and bolden the first line of error
messages, when ANSI codes are supported and permitted.
And warn goldens and boldens the first line of warning messages.
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.
Transaction and posting tags (and posting tags inherited from accounts)
are now converted safely to Beancount-compatible transaction and posting
metadata lines.
