total prices. (#1813)
Also reduce duplication for inferring market prices (previously it was
done separately in both Hledger.Data.Journal and
Hledger.Cli.Commands.Prices), and remove *TotalPriceToUnitPrice
functions, since unit prices cannot represent all total prices.
Add a helper function numDigitsInt to get the number of digits in an
integer, which has a surprising number of ways to get it wrong.
^assets?(:.+)?:(cash|bank|che(ck|que?)(ing)?|savings?|current)(:|$)
This should have no effect outside the cash report.
The rule for auto-detecting "Cash" (liquid assets) from account names
has changed in this release - see [Account types]. This is to simplify
how account types are detected and configured. If you use the cashflow
report without explicitly declaring accounts as Cash, you might notice a
change, and might need to add explicit account type: tags.
This requires checking parent accounts for any new accounts introduced by auto postings which do not exist in the original journal.
Also refactor journalFinalise to only call journalPostingsAddAccountTags once, and use fewer intermediate variables.
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.
directives.
Previously, you declare an account type with the following format:
account assets A
This has been deprecated since 1.13, and should now be declared with one
of:
account assets ; type:A
account assets ; type:asset
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.
Note that this gives output compatible with the multi balance report,
which means it is different from the csv with the legacy balance report.
This means tools only need to be able to handle one tidy csv format.
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.
Together with -E, this allows showing a balance for all accounts, both
used and declared. I mainly want this for hledger-ui, but there's no
harm in exposing it in the balance command as well. This is somewhat
consistent with the accounts and payees commands.
This command now reuses the --infer-market-prices flag, and uses
a new --infer-reverse-prices flag, instead of the old
--costs and --inverted-costs flags, which are now deprecated and hidden.
The forecast period begins on:
- the start date supplied to the `--forecast` argument, if present
- otherwise, the later of
- the report start date if specified with -b/-p/date:
- the day after the latest normal (non-periodic) transaction in the journal, if any
- otherwise today.
It ends on:
- the end date supplied to the `--forecast` argument, if present
- otherwise the report end date if specified with -e/-p/date:
- otherwise 180 days (6 months) from today.
Note that the previous behaviour did not quite match the documentation,
so this also acts as a bug fix for #1665.
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.
Add documentation and sample output for `--commodity-column` behavior
and functional tests e.g single-period balance, yearly balance, and
yearly budget
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.
AccountTransactionsReport.
Only a limited number of journal transformations are allowed in
accountTransactionReports due to the need to include the original
transaction. Document these.
Make sure to remove currency and amount queries from the reportq, so
they do not cause problems after valuation.
Avoid confusion by calculating transaction date at one point, and
passing that down with the transaction.
valuation after all reportq filtering is done (in both the historical
and recent postings), and make sure filtering is done at the correct
point based on whether --txn-dates is set. (#1634)
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.
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
postings without multipliers would incorrectly be filtered by commodity.
transactions are balanced possibly using explicit prices, but without
inferring any prices. This is included in --strict mode.
Renames check autobalanced to check balancedwithautoconversion.
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.
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 was reported on #hledger that bal -O csv capitalises "account"
differently for single and multi-period reports. All lower case seems
to be the most common, so I have dropped the capitalisation. Also
the trailing colon from --transpose's "total:".
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.
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.
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.
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".
aregister always shows transactions to subaccounts as well, ignoring any depth limit, so that the register's final total matches a corresponding balance report.
This was broken since 2020-09-02 c45663d41.
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.
Command-line account aliases now also affect transactions read
from these formats (not just journal format).
lib: journalApplyAliases, transactionApplyAliases, postingApplyAliases
helpers have been added.
