Previously, if you specified no report interval, the text output of
these commands was a simple report like the original balance command,
with amounts on the left and account names on the right. Also,
balances used arithmetic sign like the balance command.
Now it always draws a table, with account names in the left
column, and shows balances with normal-positive sign, consistent with
the multicolumn reports. Less code, fewer bugs.
Related to #563, when rendering a transaction, we reserve two more chars
of width so that amounts remain aligned when there are posting flags.
Affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
* Remember original postings during infer and pivot
This includes such functions like:
- inferFromAssignment
- inferBalancingAmount
- inferBalancingPrices
- pivotPosting
* Use original postings for hledger print
- Introduce "--explicit" option for "print" command which brings back
old behavior when every inferred number being printed.
- Make "print" by default print original postings without inferred
amounts. But use effective account name to have effect from aliases.
- Instruct shell tests with an new expected output or to use
--explicit option when inferred amounts are checked.
Resolvessimonmichael/hledger#442
* Changed behavior of `readJournalFiles` to be identical to `readJournalFile` for singleton lists
* Balance Assertions have to be simple Amounts
* Add 'isAssignment' and 'assignmentPostings' to Hledger.Data.Posting and Transaction
* Implemented 'balanceTransactionUpdate', a more general version of 'balanceTransaction' that takes an update function
* Fixed test cases.
* Implemented balance assignment ("resetting a balance")
* Add assertions to show function
* updated the comments
* numbering is not needed in journalCheckBalanceAssertions
* remove prices before balance checks
* rename functions
When multiple files are specified with multiple -f options, we now
parse each one individually, rather than just concatenating them, so
they can have different formats.
Directives (like default year or account aliases) no longer carry over
from one file to the next. Limitation or feature ?
Using "hledgerdev" was a hack to help ensure that tests used a fresh
developer build by default. Now they specify "hledger" again, which fits
better with stack. It's up to the tester to make sure the desired
executable is first in PATH or specified with -w. (Note a couple of
tests currently don't obey -w and will always run "hledger", see addons.test).
