- Added support for unseparated dates, for convenience in ghci and for parseHledgerVersion
- Noted two user-facing uses: --value's argument, and import's .latest files.
YYYYMMDD dates will now also work there. Left this undocumented.
- Noted this is now more permissive, parsing many integers successfully; not expecting problems.
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.
"-" implies data from standard input so "string" is perhaps more
correct, but I think this is a harmless simplification and it
makes `files` output consistent when run by `run`.
Transaction and posting tags (and posting tags inherited from accounts)
are now converted safely to Beancount-compatible transaction and posting
metadata lines.
Previously depth-limiting was universal across all accounts, e.g. all
accounts are clipped to depth 2. However, sometimes you want certain
accounts clipped to a different depth than others, e.g. all expenses to
depth 3, while all assets to depth 2. This commit enables depth-limiting
to optionally include a regular expression, which limits the accounts it
applies to.
More than one depth limit can be passed, and they are applied to each
account name by the following rules:
- If one or more regular-expression depth limit applies, use the
most specific one
- If no regular-expression depth limits apply, and a flat depth limit is
supplied, use that
- Otherwise, do not do any depth limiting
For example, this will clip all accounts matching "assets" to depth 3,
all accounts matching "expenses" to depth 2, and all other accounts to
depth 1.
--depth assets=3 --depth expenses=2 --depth 1
Market prices are now shown using one line each,
the known prices are listed (forward / forward+reverse),
and the status of --infer-market-prices is shown.
- 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.
The equity:conversion account, and its variations equity:trade(s) and equity:trading,
normally detected as V/Conversion type, now become ordinary E/Equity accounts
if some other account is declared as V/Conversion type.
This is motivated by the next commit, in which `check accounts` will
stop warning about conversion accounts and their subaccounts,
which means all of the above names and their subaccounts would remain
always exempt from strict account checking.
Now, if the user declares their own conversion account, those default
accounts will become controllable by account checking again.
Which at least reduces the allowlist a bit.
Hopefully this won't cause hassles.
--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.
Tags and types declared in account directives in sibling files or
included files are now combined more carefully.
In particular, when merging two Journals into one,
- jdeclaredaccounttags and jdeclaredaccounttypes no longer lose information;
any duplicated/conflicting tag/type values are preserved.
- jaccounttypes now prefers the last type declared in case of
conflict, not the first.
Like we used to in 1.30, but better (show all available decimal digits,
unless they're infinite in which case show 8, show trailing zeros,
show commodity symbol with zero).
Note the headErr/tailErr calls will print stack traces if they fail
(small ones: five lines, one of which is the useful location info),
which may or may not be best UX.
The previous #2153 fix used accountNameTreeFrom, but it turns out this
has always had O(n^2) performance, so our tests with 10k accounts ran
even slower than before. Now it's faster, the main #2153 slowdown
should really be fixed, and other commands which build an account tree
should also be free of this slowdown when there are very many accounts.
When processing costs and equity postings in transactions during
journal finalisation, we now pass just the conversion account name(s)
rather than the entire map of account types. This slowdown was severe
for some users/data/machines.
The code is a bit clearer, and it no longer discards amounts other
than the first when the running balance contains multiple costs.
(This bug was exposed by the fix for #2039).
They are `balances:` for assertion transactions,
`retain:` for retained earnings transactions,
and `start` for opening/closing transactions.
And some --help cleanups.
Hledger.Utils.Debug.traceOrLog was logging when it should trace and vice versa.
This affected a warning which Hledger.Data.Valuation.pricesShortestPath
should display if encountering a pathologically long (>1000) price chain.
Also note some oddities about that warning.
The hledger-web tests have been cleaned up and now allow more testing
of command line options like (though still not everything).
Note tests now run the app listening on its default host and port,
127.0.0.1 and 5000, instead of "any IPv4 or IPv6 hostname" and 3000.
This would seem to mean hledger-web tests can conflict more with
things running on port 5000, eg a normal hledger-web instance, but I
haven't been able to reproduce it.
When reports want to render amounts without commmodity symbols,
they must now use AmountDisplayOpts' new displayCommodity flag.
(Previously it was a side effect of setting displayCommodityOrder.)
Now using type: in account declarations or generating t: with timedot
letters won't cause the `tags` check to fail.
If a user declares any of these explicitly with a tag directive,
it does not cause an error.
