We previously had another parser type, 'type ErroringJournalParser =
ExceptT String ...' for throwing parse errors without the possibility of
backtracking. This parser type was removed under the assumption that it
would be possible to write our parser without this capability. However,
after a hairy backtracking bug, we would now prefer to have the option
to prevent backtracking.
- Define a 'FinalParseError' type specifically for the 'ExceptT' layer
- Any parse error can be raised as a "final" parse error
- Tracks the stack of include files for parser errors, anticipating the
removal of the tracking of stacks of include files in megaparsec 7
- Although a stack of include files is also tracked in the 'StateT
Journal' layer of the parser, it seems easier to guarantee correct
error messages in the 'ExceptT FinalParserError' layer
- This does not make the 'StateT Journal' stack redundant because the
'ExceptT FinalParseError' stack cannot be used to detect cycles of
include files
- Don't immediately throw custom parse errors into 'ParsecT'; rather,
just construct and return them
- This anticipates the re-implementation of an 'ExceptT' layer of the
parser, which should be able throw custom parse errors
- In anticipation of megaparsec 7, which removes support for stacks of
include files (as far as I can tell)
- Intended for the 'StateT Journal' layer of the parser
- A stack of include files would be better in a 'ReaderT' layer, but I
don't want to add another layer to the parser
- Intended for detecting cycles of include files
- Potential issue: for proper error messages for include file cycles,
we must remember to provide the filepath of the root journal file via
the initial journal state passed to a 'JournalParser'; I imagine
that we may forget to do so because in all other cases it is okay
not to do so.
A bunch of account sorting changes that got intermingled.
First, account codes have been dropped. They can still be parsed and
will be ignored, for now. I don't know if anyone used them.
Instead, account display order is now controlled by the order of account
directives, if any. From the mail list:
I'd like to drop account codes, introduced in hledger 1.9 to control
the display order of accounts. In my experience,
- they are tedious to maintain
- they duplicate/compete with the natural tendency to arrange account
directives to match your mental chart of accounts
- they duplicate/compete with the tree structure created by account
names
and it gets worse if you think about using them more extensively,
eg to classify accounts by type.
Instead, I plan to just let the position (parse order) of account
directives determine the display order of those declared accounts.
Undeclared accounts will be displayed after declared accounts,
sorted alphabetically as usual.
Second, the various account sorting modes have been implemented more
widely and more correctly. All sorting modes (alphabetically, by account
declaration, by amount) should now work correctly in almost all commands
and modes (non-tabular and tabular balance reports, tree and flat modes,
the accounts command). Sorting bugs have been fixed, eg #875.
Only the budget report (balance --budget) does not yet support sorting.
Comprehensive functional tests for sorting in the accounts and balance
commands have been added. If you are confused by some sorting behaviour,
studying these tests is recommended, as sorting gets tricky.
Custom Show instances were obscuring important details in test failure
output again. The best policy seems to be: stick with default derived
Show instances as far as possible, but when necessary customize them
to conform to haskell syntax so pretty-show can do its thing (eg when
they contain Day values, cf https://github.com/haskell/time/issues/101).
This makes skipping/unskipping tests easier, and improves readability
a bit.
Note it's also possible to just write the test name with no preceding
function, when the type is constrained (see Journal.hs).
Amount's default show instance hid important details, making eg test
failures hard to understand. Showing full detail required increasing
the debug level which was inconvenient.
Now it has a single show instance which shows more information, is
fairly compact, and is pretty-printable with pretty-show.
Ellipses (..) in the output indicate where fields are
- not shown in full detail, and/or
- shown in pseudo syntax (double quoted) to work with pretty-show.
ghci> usd 1
OLD:
Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, ..}
NEW:
Amount {acommodity = "$", aquantity = 1.00, aprice = NoPrice, astyle = AmountStyle "L False 2 Just '.' Nothing..", amultiplier = False}
MixedAmount's show instance is unchanged, but showMixedAmountDebug
is affected by this change:
ghci> putStrLn $ showMixedAmountDebug $ Mixed [usd 1]
OLD:
Mixed [Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, aprice=, astyle=AmountStyle {ascommodityside = L, ascommodityspaced = False, asprecision = 2, asdecimalpoint = Just '.', asdigitgroups = Nothing}}]
NEW:
Mixed [Amount {acommodity="$", aquantity=1.00, aprice=, astyle=AmountStyle "L False 2 Just '.' Nothing.."}]
Same-line & next-line comments of transactions, postings, etc.
are now parsed a bit more precisely. Previously parsing no comment
gave the same result as an empty comment (a single newline); now
it gives an empty string.
Also, and perhaps as a consequence of the above, when there's no
same-line comment but there is a next-line comment, we'll insert an
empty first line, otherwise next-line comments would get moved up to
the same line when rendered.
Some doctests have been added.
This removes transactionModifierToFunction's extra query parameter;
the rewrite command sets it in the TransactionModifier instead, which
I think is equivalent. I had to change one functional test, but it
seems correct now, so perhaps it wasn't working right before ?
I was negligent and did not test enough. This should ignore
transaction comments in auto posting rules more safely.
It also adds support for trailing comments on the first line of auto
posting rules, which previously were misparsed as part of the query.
'fail' will just terminate the current parse branch, whereas here
we have encountered a definite error. Also bring the code to
get the current working directory inside 'getFilePaths', as it
logically belongs there.
Field names are supposed to be case insensitive, but a field assignment like
fields ...,Transaction_Date,...
date %Transaction_Date
was failing, because of the capitalised letters. Fixed now.
- expands the set of expected tokens when e.g. parsing the invalid
posting `account $1 a`
- whitespace can affect parse errors because of the longest match rule
where errors that occur later take precedence over those that occur
earlier
- 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
... for displaying the source line on which parse errors occured
Over the following set of commits, I will to refactor the parsers to
obviate the `ExceptT String` layer of the `ErroringJournalParser` type
so that all parse errors go through Megaparsec's parse error machinery.
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.
- Rationale:
- The information necessary for applying exponents to a number is more
explicitly represented in the inputs to `fromRawNumber` than in the outputs
- This way, `exponentp` may simply return an `Int`
- Purpose: to reduce the verbosity of the previous implementation
- Split off `AmbiguousNumber` into its own type
- Introduce a function `AmbiguousNumber -> RawNumber` explicitly capturing the
disambiguation logic
- Reduce the number of remaining constructors in `RawNumber` to just two,
`WithSeparator` and `NoSeparator`
- The choice to distinguish by the presence of digit separators is motivated
by the need for this information later on when disallowing exponents on
numbers with digit separators
- Extracts the handling of signs out of `fromRawNumber` and into `signp` itself
- Rationale: The sign can be applied independently from the logic in
`fromRawNumber`
It now works slightly differently. Eg:
- <unbudgeted>'s subaccounts are hidden by default
- --show-unbudgeted shows all unbudgeted accounts, including subaccounts of budgeted parents
- --show-unbudgeted doesn't affect the grouping under <unbudgeted>
IMHO it's a nice simplification and increase in consistency, while still meeting the original intent.
Accounts which have no budget goals within the report period are now
grouped under <unbudgeted> - not just accounts with no budget goals ever.
Haddocks have been clarified, especially for budgetRollup. In some
ways things are much clearer without this feature, but it remains
enabled by default for now.
Budgets were restricted to a single interval in 1.9, but this was
a mistake. This restores the 1.5 behaviour, where a budget can be built
up from multiple periodic transactions with different intervals.
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.
Inferred amounts now have the appropriate standard amount style applied.
And when checking for balanced transactions, amount styles declared with
commodity directives are also used (previously only inferred amount styles were).
Income, liability and equity balances, which until now we have
always displayed as negative numbers, are now shown as normally positive
by these reports.
Negative numbers now indicate a contra-balance (eg an overdrawn
checking account), a net loss, a negative net worth, etc.
This makes these reports more like conventional financial statements,
and easier to read and share with normal people.
Now we have:
-- | Sorted unique account names posted to by this journal's transactions.
journalAccountNamesUsed :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names implied by this journal's transactions -
-- accounts posted to and all their implied parent accounts.
journalAccountNamesImplied :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclared :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives or posted to
-- by transactions in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclaredOrUsed :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Sorted unique account names declared by account directives, or posted to
-- or implied as parents by transactions in this journal.
journalAccountNamesDeclaredOrImplied :: Journal -> [AccountName]
-- | Convenience/compatibility alias for journalAccountNamesImpliedOrUsed.
journalAccountNames :: Journal -> [AccountName]
accountsFromPostings is currently doing excessive work when adding up
postings in each account. It sorts (accountName, amount) tuples which
cause amounts in them to be compared. There is no need to look at amount
here at all since subsequent summing up and counting does not depend on
order. It is enough to sort by accountname only.
Went through similar pieces of code, made them all look uniform.
- Simplify doctests for periodexpr.
- Besides consuming leading space consume ending space for periodexpr also.
- Drop implicit option (def, def) behaviour of periodexpr. I.e. disallow
hledger reg -p '' and auto-transaction with heading just '~'.
- Slightly re-factor periodexpr.
- Ensure that reportinginterval doesn't consume trailing space.
Useful if we'll start disallowing periods like "every1stjan2009-".
Ledger-style automated postings, previously supported only by
hledger-budget, have landed as a first-class feature. The --auto
flag activates them, so that any postings they generate are
included in reports.
Ledger-style periodic transactions, previously supported only by
hledger-budget, have landed as a first-class feature. The --forecast
flag activates them, so that any transactions they generate are
included in reports.
This is very helpful for periodic transactions, because in budget mode
you need to ensure that no periodic transactions extend past the end
of the journal, and in forecast mode you need to make sure that all
periodic transactions are strictly after the end of the journal.
Some of these demonstrate that runPeriodicTransaction could generate
transactions ouside of requested DateSpan. This happens because
runPeriodicTransaction uses splitSpan internally, and splitSpan always
generates dateSpans that fully cover original DateSpan, extending
beyound left/right boundary if necessary. This is ok if transactions
are generated for budgeting purpose, but during forecasting care should
be taken to check that all generated transactions are happening past
the end of the real journal.
Currently only lower-case account names are supported, both on the
command line, and in the journal (in periodic transactions):
This works:
$ hledger balance -p nov
This does not:
$ hledger balance -p Nov
First transaction will parse, second will not:
```
cat every-month.journal ~/devel/haskell/darcs-get/hledger/examples
~ aug to sep
assets
expenses $1
~ Aug to Sep
assets
expenses $2
```
$../bin/hledger-budget bal -f every-month.journal
hledger-budget: Failed to parse "Aug to Sep": date parse error ()
This commit fixes both cases.
Compound balance commands like these can now be aware of normal account
balance sign, and sort negative balances accordingly.
This also adds utility-ht as a dependency, only for the uncurry function
right now but it looks potentially useful to have.
Trailing whitespace in the replacement part of a regular expression
account alias is now significant. Eg, slightly flattening some bank
accounts: --alias '/:somebank:/=somebank '
Add "fixed" to the regex used to exclude asset accounts from cashflow
reports. Assumes accounts are set up something like:
assets:fixed assets:equipment
assets:fixed assets:vehicles
assets:fixed assets:buildings
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).
This patch fixes a bug that happened when using the -H option on
a period without any transaction. Previously, the behavior was no
output at all even though it should have shown the previous ending balances
of past transactions. (This is similar to previously using -H with -E,
but with the extra advantage of not showing empty accounts)
The new entry effectively adds a loan which is placed in the checking account.
This loan is then closed by the "pay off" transaction (which was already
present).
This is mainly to be used as a test point for the -H option; to make
sure -H does not show empty accounts.
All previous tests were changed to reflect the new change.
The documentation of the journal module was updated too.
Of the 2 tests, the first is a simple test on a specific period.
The second is expected to fail at this point until the new upcoming
code to fix the issue with the history option is implemented.
For the record : this issue happens when we use the -H flag for a period
that does not contain any transactions. Currently, the ending balance
values are only taken into account if the current period contains
a Transaction containing one of the previous populated accounts.
For example, if we have a statement on the 2008/01/01 for $1
and we do a command (with -H) to check the value on the
(without transactions) 2008/01/02, we will not get the $1 from
2008/01/01. In that same example, if we had a transaction for the same
account as 2008/01/01 in say 2008/01/03 then the -H command would
successfully show the statement from 2008/01/03 with the initial amount
that we set in 2008/01/01.
These tests verify the behavior when we input a very specific period.
The second test is meant to make sure that the new upcoming code in
MultiBalanceReports will not change anything in the behavior of
the module BalanceReport.
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.
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.
This affects hledger-ui's transaction screen, print, hledger-rewrite etc.
A pending flag on postings is now displayed, just like a cleared flag.
Also there will now be a space between flag and account name.
And it's slightly better at aligning amounts, due to now considering
virtual posting parentheses/brackets or something.
When generating a new posting as a multiple of an existing posting,
support conversion to a different commodity. For example, postings in
hours can be used to generate postings in USD.
Automatic transactions generated from rewrite rules use the commodity,
amount style, and transaction price if the rewrite defines a commodity.
The balance command now shows negative amounts in red, when it thinks
ANSI codes are supported, ie when TERM is not "dumb" and stdout is not
being redirected or piped somewhere.
* Add an option to use unicode in balance tables
fixes#522
* Add a test for unicode tables
* Document --pretty-tables
* Support --pretty-tables in BalanceView
* 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
* bin: ignore chart and dupes addons
* lib: fix txnTieKnot
Ensure that postings refers to their transaction rather than original
one.
This should allow compiler perform destructive update and/or allow
garbage collecting old transaction.
This assumes a "PAYEE | NOTE" convention in the description field,
similar to Beancount's journal syntax. If the description has no pipe
character, payee and note are the same as the full description.
* Add implicit tags code/desc/payee for --pivot
Additionally allow using of transaction inherited tags.
* Use original posting in query by account name
To be able to query on individual postings and by account name it is
useful to have access to original account name (before pivot).
Especially this is useful when all postings within transaction gets
the same pivot name due.
As a side effect we'll match by alias.
Note: to query on amt it usually expected to see matches with inferred
amounts.
* 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
ie, when viewing a "current" period (the current day/week/month/quarter/year),
it will be moved to enclose the current date, if needed, whenever the system date changes.
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.
This reader is used by default for files with suffix .ledger or .l,
and tried along with the other readers for files of unknown type.
Currently only the bare minimum of the raw parsed data is used:
transaction dates/descriptions and posting accounts/amounts,
with the rest being ignored.
Amounts are parsed the same way as in the hledger journal format.
Malformed amounts might be ignored instead of error-reported.
* csv rules: Show prettier parsing errors
This goes from
hledger: user error ("ParseError {errorPos = SourcePos {sourceName = \"foo.csv.rules\",
sourceLine = Pos 20, sourceColumn = Pos 1} :| [], errorUnexpected =
fromList [Tokens (' ' :| \"\")], errorExpected = fromList [Label ('b' :| \"lank or comment
line\"),EndOfInput], errorCustom = fromList []}")
to
hledger: user error (foo.csv.rules:20:1:
unexpected space
expecting blank or comment line or end of input
)
* csv rules: Fix parsing of empty field values
A single line containing `account1 ` (note the space at the end) should
parse as assignment of the empty string to account1. At least it did
until commit 4141067.
The problem is that megaparsec's `space` parses multiple space
characters as opposed to parsec. So in the example above it would
incorrectly consume the newline.
This commit also adds a new test case for this bug.
Timeclock transaction ids now count up rather than down.
Also, remove old code for appending timeclock transactions to journal transactions,
a holdover from the days when both were allowed in one file.
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.
The account transactions report used for hledger-ui and -web registers
now gives either the "period total" or "historical total", depending
strictly on the --historical flag. It doesn't try to tell the user
whether the historical total is the accurate historical balance (which
depends on the report query).
- try to clarify naming and meaning of balance/register report modes
and kinds of "balance" displayed. Added balance --change and
register --cumulative flags to clarify report modes.
- with multiple --change/--cumulative/--historical flags use the last
instead of complaining
- register -A is now affected by -H
- options cleanups
-H/--historical now makes a single-column balance report with a start
date show historical balances reflecting earlier postings. This is
equivalent to specifying no start date, but it's more consistent.
The account transactions report (and eg hledger-ui's register screen) no
longer aborts showing historical balances when -E/--empty/nonzero mode
or cur: are in effect.
* 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.
Clarify the account transactions report, and don't change original transactions' dates.
Show a more accurate date in hledger-ui and hledger-web's account registers
when postings have their own dates. This is now called the "transaction register date":
the date which is displayed for that transaction in a register for some current account
and filter query. It is either the transaction date from the journal ("transaction general date"),
or if postings to the current account and matched by the register's filter query have
their own dates, the earliest of those dates.
With --debug=2, better information about assertions is printed.
Balance assertion errors now have a more standard and parseable layout.
The asserted balance is now shown with the diff, let's see if that's better.
Two fixes for this report when --real/--cleared/real:/status: are in effect,
affecting hledger-ui and possibly hledger-web:
1. exclude transactions which affect the current account via an excluded posting type.
Eg when --real is in effect, a transaction posting to the current account with only
virtual postings will not appear in the report.
2. when showing historical balances, don't count excluded posting types in the
starting balance. Eg with --real, the starting balance will be the sum of only the
non-virtual prior postings.
This is complicated and there might be some ways to confuse it still, causing
wrongly included/excluded transactions or wrong historical balances/running totals
(transactions with both real and virtual postings to the current account, perhaps ?)
This commit clarifies the account transactions report: as before the included transactions
are the original unfiltered transactions, but now the change and running balance amounts
are calculated from the report-matched postings. This fixed the limitation noted in 509f558,
so that toggling real mode in any screen could work. Then I decided the transaction screen
shouldn't show a partial transaction after all, so real/cleared filtering is no longer allowed or indicated here.
There is a limitation/bug: disabling real mode in the transaction screen
won't show the non-real postings if it was entered from a real-mode
register screen.
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).
