Hledger.Utils.Debug's "trace or log" functions are now controlled as
follows: to enable logging, append ",logging" to the program name at
startup (using withProgName). This also works when running in GHCI.
And they log to PROGNAME.log, not debug.log.
All (hopefully) debug logging in the hledger packages is now "trace or
log" capable.
This means that hledger-ui should now log all debug output to
./hledger-ui.log, with none of it appearing on the console.
Previously, CSV date-times with a different time zone from yours
(with or without explicit timezones in the CSV) could give off-by-one
dates, because the CSV timezone was ignored.
Now,
1. you can use the `timezone` rule to indicate which other
timezone a CSV is implicitly using
2. CSV date-times with a timezone - whether declared by rule or
parsed with %Z - are localised to the system time zone
(or another set with the TZ environment variable).
transaction prices.
When given --infer-costs, hledger will now separately infer transaction
prices for different prices. Given a pair of adjacent conversion
postings, hledger will check if there is a single posting with a
transaction price which matches both the amounts. If so, it associates
those conversion postings to that priced post.
If it can't find any transaction price postings which match, it will
find the first non-transaction price post which matches one of the two
amounts, and will add a transaction price to that, and associate them.
When given --infer-equity, hledger will change transaction prices to balancing equity postings. This introduces the inverse operation, --infer-costs, which will match balancing equity postings and transform them into a transaction price, allowing --cost to work properly with them. This is only a partial inverse as it needs to use some heuristics to match the postings which will not work in complicated cases.
Specifically, when hledger finds exactly two conversion postings in a transaction (by default, subaccounts of equity:conversion or equity:trad(e|ing)), it will find the first posting in the transaction whose amount is negative one of the conversion posting amounts, and inserts the corresponding transaction price.
May also fix#1154, #1033, #708, #536, #73: testing is needed.
This aims to solve all problems where misconfigured locales lead to
parsers failing on utf8-encoded data. This should hopefully avoid
encoding issues, but since it fundamentally alters how encoding is dealt
with it may lead to unexpected outcomes. Widespread testing on a number
of different platforms would be useful.
And remove the last vestiges of older more complex behaviour.
ordereddates now always checks all transactions in each file,
unaffected by a query. (But still affected by --date2).
parseAndFinaliseJournal' has been removed. In the unlikely event you
needed it in your code, you can replace it with:
parseAndFinaliseJournal' parser iopts fp t =>
initialiseAndParseJournal parser iopts fp t
>>= liftEither . journalApplyAliases (aliasesFromOpts iopts)
>>= journalFinalise iopts fp t
Some parsers have been generalised from JournalParser to TextParser.
This increases composability and avoids some ugly case handling. We
re-export runExceptT in Hledger.Read.
The final return types of the following functions has been changed from
IO (Either String a) to ExceptT String IO a. If this causes a problem,
you can get the old behaviour by calling runExceptT on the output:
readJournal, readJournalFiles, readJournalFile
Or, you can use the easy functions readJournal', readJournalFiles', and
readJournalFile', which assume default options and return in the IO
monad.
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.
type:TYPES, where TYPES is any of the (case insensitive) letters
ALERXCV, matches accounts by their declared or inferred type.
(See https://hledger.org/hledger.html#account-types.)
This should work with most commands, eg:
hledger bal type:al
hledger reg type:x
API changes:
Journal has a new jaccounttypes map.
The journalAccountType lookup function makes it easy to check an account's type.
The journalTags and journalInheritedTags functions look up an account's tags.
Functions like journalFilterPostings and journalFilterTransactions,
and new matching functions matchesAccountExtra, matchesPostingExtra
and matchesTransactionExtra, use these to allow more powerful matching
that is aware of account types and tags.
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.
(SourcePos, SourcePos).
This has been marked for possible removal for a while. We are keeping
strictly more information. Possible edge cases arise with Timeclock and
CsvReader, but I think these are covered.
The particular motivation for getting rid of this is that
GenericSourcePos is creating some awkward import considerations for
little gain. Removing this enables some flattening of the module
dependency tree.
Hledger.Data.Balancing.
Both Hledger.Data.Transaction and Hledger.Data.Journal are massive
module with many things in them. Placing the balancing functions, which
are conceptually related, into a separate module helps keep things more
modular.
It also reduces the risk of import cycles, as right now balancing
functions cannot depend on any functions defined outside of
Hledger.Data.Transaction or Hledger.Data.Journal, respectively, if those
modules require basic transaction or journal functions.
rawOptsTo* in hledger-lib now takes a day as an argument, and does not
live in the IO monad, since it's now pure.
This is so that we can run tests containing future transactions that
won't fail as soon as ‘the future’ actually arrives.
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.
POSIXTime.
This eliminates old-time, which has been deprecated for a while, from
our dependencies.
This introduces a slight incompatibility, as a small number of functions
now take/return POSIXTime instead of ClockTime. Generally you will be
using the current time, in which case you should use getPOSIXTime from
Data.Time.Clock.POSIX instead of getClockTime.
utcTimeToClockTime has been removed, as it is now equivalent to
utcTimeToPOSIXSeconds from Data.Time.Clock.POSIX.
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.
style amounts according to that argument. journalAddForecast and
journalTransform now return an Either String Journal.
This improves efficiency, as we no longer have to restyle all amounts in
the journal after generating auto postings or periodic transactions.
Changing the return type of journalAddForecast and journalTransform
reduces partiality.
To get the previous behaviour for modifyTransaction, use modifyTransaction mempty.
