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has been replaced by the richer cost_ option.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
-V (and -X) now respects a report end date set with -e/-p/date: when
choosing the valuation date, similar to hledger 1.14 and Ledger.
This means that -V/-X aren't exactly like either --value=end or
--value=now. The "Effect of --value on reports" doc has been extended
accordingly, and much of it has been reworded and made more accurate.
