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
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.
`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
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.
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.
- These special hidden tags, used internally, have been renamed:
- `_modified` -> `_modified-transaction`
- `_cost-matched` -> `_cost-posting`
- `_conversion-matched` -> `_conversion-posting`
- All special hidden tags now have a similarly-named visible tag,
and `--verbose-tags` now shows those more often, which is useful
when troubleshooting `--infer-equity`, `--infer-costs`,
or the matching of redundant costs and conversion postings.
- The `generated-posting:` tag added by `--infer-equity` is now valueless.
- The `modified-transaction:` tag added by `--auto` now appears on its own line.
--color now also works in a config file, like --pager, except for two
cases: it does not affect colouring of debug output, or the colouring
helpers used in the check recentassertions error message.
Older ghc versions should also still build cleanly (tested with 9.8 so far).
I don't like enabling CPP in so many modules but it's easier that
figuring out how to do it with base-compat; hopefully no noticeable
compilation impact.
For brevity, and consistency with --conf.
--rules-file remains supported, as a hidden option.
hledger's main mode now supports the hidden legacy flags,
as the command modes do.
This enables a "relaxed" workflow where you delay balance assertions
checking until strict mode is turned on: always run hledger -I, and
add -s when you're ready.
