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.
The journal/timeclock/timedot parsers, instead of constructing (opaque)
journal update functions which are later applied to build the journal,
now construct the journal directly (by modifying the parser state). This
is easier to understand and debug. It also removes any possibility of
the journal updates being a space leak. (They weren't, in fact memory
usage is now slightly higher, but that will be addressed in other ways.)
Also:
Journal data and journal parse info have been merged into one type (for
now), and field names are more consistent.
The ParsedJournal type alias has been added to distinguish being-parsed
and finalised journals.
Journal is now a monoid.
stats: fixed an issue with ordering of include files
journal: fixed an issue with ordering of included same-date transactions
timeclock: sessions can no longer span file boundaries (unclocked-out
sessions will be auto-closed at the end of the file).
expandPath now throws a proper IO error (and requires the IO monad).
journal files can now include journal, timeclock or timedot files (but
not yet CSV files). Also timeclock/timedot files no longer support
default year directives.
The Hledger.Read.* modules have been reorganised for better reuse.
Hledger.Read.Utils has been renamed Hledger.Read.Common and holds
low-level parsers & utilities; high-level read utilities have moved to
Hledger.Read.
Bracketed posting dates were fragile; they worked only if you wrote full
10-character dates. Also some semantics were a bit unclear. Now they
should be robust, and have been documented more clearly. This is a
legacy undocumented Ledger syntax, but it improves compatibility and
might be preferable to the more verbose "date:" tags if you write
posting dates often (as I do).
Internally, bracketed posting dates are no longer considered to be tags.
Journal comment, tag, and posting date parsers have been reworked, all
with doctests. Also the journal parser types generally have been
tightened up and clarified, making it much easier to know how to combine
and run them. There's now
-- | A parser of strings with generic user state, monad and return type.
type StringParser u m a = ParsecT String u m a
-- | A string parser with journal-parsing state.
type JournalParser m a = StringParser JournalContext m a
-- | A journal parser that runs in IO and can throw an error mid-parse.
type ErroringJournalParser a = JournalParser (ExceptT String IO) a
and corresponding convenience functions (and short aliases) for running them.
We now parse account directives, like Ledger's. We don't do anything
with them yet. The default parent account feature must now be spelled
"apply account"/"end apply account".
The Journal, Timelog and Timedot readers' detectors now check
each line in the sample data, not just the first one. I think
the sample data is only about 30 chars right now, but even so
this fixed a format detection issue I was seeing.
Timedot is a plain text format for logging dated, categorised
quantities (eg time), supported by hledger. It is convenient for
approximate and retroactive time logging, eg when the real-time
clock-in/out required with a timeclock file is too precise or too
interruptive. It can be formatted like a bar chart, making clear at a
glance where time was spent.
I really don't see why that extra x parameter is needed or works..
rewrite it in simpler form.
I also might be introducing breakage for older GHC's by using
unconditionally <$>, but I'm not seeing that for some reason
(tested back to ghc 7.6).
This adds a accountNameApplyAliasesMemo, which memoises the result of
applying a set of aliases (simple and regex) to an account name. In
theory this should reduce more repetitive work, but in practice it
doesn't seem to make a difference, so it's unused for now.
