- inline `spaceamountormissingp` into `postingp`
- combine `rightsymbolamountp` and `nosymbolamountp`
- the multiplier symbol '*' for an amount must now always preceed a sign '-'
[breaking change]
- make amount parser labels more generic to simplify error messages
For Data/Dates.hs in particular:
- Changed `SimpleTextParser` to `TextParser m` for all parsers
- Changed `string` to the case-insensitive `string'` to match the
behaviour of `T.toLower` found in `parsePeriodExpr`
- export `periodexprp` for "direct" use
base-compat-batteries provides the same API across more ghc versions
than base-compat does, at the cost of more dependencies. Eg it exports
Prelude.Compat ((<>)) with ghc 7.10/base 4.8, which we expect.
My belief is that several of our deps already require it so the added
cost is not too great. We should probably go back to base-compat when
possible though, eg when we stop supporting ghc 7.10.
The new version of our package set apparently contains both base-compat and
base-compat-batteries in its transitive closure. This breaks the doctest suite,
which just imports everything into scope when the tests are run, thereby making
module names like Prelude.Compat ambiguous.
We don't need to import Data.Monoid because Prelude.Compat exports "<>"
already. In fact, importing that module causes build failures:
Hledger/Read/Common.hs:725:62: error:
Ambiguous occurrence ‘<>’
It could refer to either ‘Sem.<>’,
imported from ‘Prelude.Compat’ at Hledger/Read/Common.hs:97:1-39
(and originally defined in ‘Data.Semigroup’)
or ‘Data.Monoid.<>’,
imported from ‘Data.Monoid’ at Hledger/Read/Common.hs:110:1-18
Fixes https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/794.
A commodity directive that doesn't specify the decimal point character
increases ambiguity and the chance of misparsing numbers, especially
as it overrides all style information inferred from the journal amounts.
In some cases it caused amounts with a decimal point to be parsed as if
with a digit group separator so 1.234 became 1234.
We could augment it with extra info from the journal amounts, when available,
but it would still be possible to be ambiguous, and that won't be obvious.
A commodity directive is what we recommend to nail down the style.
It seems the simple and really only way to do this reliably is to require
an explicit decimal point character. Most folks probably do this already.
Unfortunately, it makes another potential incompatiblity with ledger and
beancount journals. But the error message will be clear and easy to
work around.
Trailing whitespace in the replacement part of a regular expression
account alias is now significant. Eg, slightly flattening some bank
accounts: --alias '/:somebank:/=somebank '
Older megaparsec is still supported.
Also cleans up our custom parser types,
and some text (un)packing is done in different places
(possible performance impact).
See the issue and linked mail list discussion. Ambiguity between the
uncleared state, and the "not cleared" --uncleared flag causes confusion
and friction. At this point it seems best to break with Ledger and
past hledger, pick a new name and drop --uncleared to put an end to it.
* added showMarketPrice and Hledger.Data.MarketPrice module
* showMarketPrice implemented using showDate
* attempted to add tests to Hledger.Data.MarketPrice
* moved MarketPrice test to Hledger.Read.JournalReader; fixed documentation on MarketPrice; added MarketPrice module to package.yaml
* cli: fix bug in pivot for postings without tag
Without this fix for postings without tag query checked effective
account which is always empty text ("").
* rewrite: inherit dates, change application order
For budgeting it is important to inherit actual date of posting if it
differs from date of transaction. These dates will be added
as a separate line of comment.
More natural order of rewrites is when result of first defined one is
available for all next rewrites.
* rewrite: factor out Hledger.Data.AutoTransaction
* rewrite: add diff output
With this option you can modify your original files without loosing
inter-transaction comments etc. I.e. you can run:
hledger-rewrite --diff Agency \
--add-posting 'Expenses:Taxes *0.17' \
| patch
As result multiple files should be updated.
Also it is nice to review your changes using colordiff instead of
patch.
* lib: track source lines range for journal
* doc: auto entries and diff output for rewrite
When we don't know a file's format, instead of choosing a subset of
readers based on content sniffing, now we just try them all.
Also, LedgerReader is now used only as a last resort,
as it's not yet competitive with JournalReader.
Transactions are now numbered consistently during journal finalisation,
rather than just in the journal reader. Also transaction knot-tying has been
moved out of journalBalanceTransactions.
* Replace Parsec with Megaparsec (see #289)
This builds upon PR #289 by @rasendubi
* Revert renaming of parseWithState to parseWithCtx
* Fix doctests
* Update for Megaparsec 5
* Specialize parser to improve performance
* Pretty print errors
* Swap StateT and ParsecT
This is necessary to get the correct backtracking behavior, i.e. discard
state changes if the parsing fails.
